In life, we have unpredictable starts
And we step forward.
I know how lucky we are.
We have unpredictable ends
And we step forward anyway.
I know how miserable it is.

Sometimes I wonder if it is my
new comfort or addiction

But this smile..
this is a real smile from my heart.

Find a penny pick it up,
       With this coin
I ran out of luck...

Bent down just as car drove past
            clipped me and
                           now I'm

Outtttttttttt…

Took a while but I'm back on
                                        my feet..

what are the chances a four leaf
   clover and a horse shoe neat..

No... the horse shoe was still
connected to the feet...

I shouted four as flew through
         the air....

then it licked my face before that
               shoe stood on my piece..

I'm out the hospital, and I saw a
           ladder, na I'm not having that.
On the outside,  but I never say the
                                           black cat..

I came to, and she was there,
             are you an angel..
        No love, You've just been served.

My luck is less my future short,
              but ill carry on as how
can it get worse, is that thunder
                               I can hear??

Lungs are yapping for air
Even breathing takes effort
This pattern can’t be trusted

Heart is empty from all the over pumping
The color red has turned black
The way to my heart is now dry

Eyes are zooming in the dark
Imaging the impossible
Imaging the comfort of my death bed

Ears are still to the nothingness
Yearning for your voice
Deaf to the words that will save me

Lips are sealed shut from the overthinking
Words want to flow free
Yet the only flow open is betraying me toxicially

Here I am
Still
Pushing my luck
To see another day
Without you

Here I am
Silenced
With a loud mind
Pushing my luck
To see another day
Without you
How anxiety and overthinking feels.

It's funny how we start anything with so much zeal, gain momentum and
when we're really close to our destiny,
things become difficult and problematic,
that's when we're really tested...
when the beginner's luck is over.

I just finished reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho which inspired me to write this. It's a must read for everyone!

I'm the kind of poetry that moves you,
I'm your favourite song on a long ride,
I'm a soulful dancer stimulating all your hidden instincts,
and I'm the taste of red wine after the second glass.
...
...
...
...

Good luck resisting me.

by Arcassin Burnham

peace out to the fellas, peace out to the ladies,
that think life might be crazy,
while carrying dreams under wings in a life so
unseen but their ways that they claim to portray
in their own grief,
angels sing so loudly to commute these events weather if
you're a sinner or just praying,
I'm just saying,
you don't have to gravitate or give in to the
words that I'm saying,
seeing the era of my ways would motivate,
but you're just playing, yourself,
bring my peace to the table , allow you to snack,
but it got cold , and your excuses for dying
got tired and old, you must enjoy that,
but things get gone,
friendships break up,
family isolates,
and you're all alone,
heading back to square one.

when your lucks run out,
everything gets cold,
promises broken,
and so is the mold,
heading back to square one.

Forty thousand dreams that have come to sudden unexpected end.
Yet millions more tainted by fears with which they must contend.
Who will dream those dreams now that they have gone their way?
Can we hope to dream as we did before when tomorrows pass away?
For now my dream is simple and my hopes and motives true.
When nightmares are over, there are better dreams for me and you.
But if by fickle fates hand my dreams should perish too...
I will hold until my last breath that good dreams return to you.
Be safe... remember those you can.
I grew, I was planted in mire
but I grew.

I shared my shoots with
reaping roots,
and still. I grew.

Wind that tore came.
Hail that burned rained.
But I endured.

Pressure came,
I stood.
Pressure came,
I bent.
Pressure came,
I broke.

In ash I grew
Pink.
I cried.

You came.

You looked not
away.

You stayed.

You gave me
Life Again.
Thank you

The people are rising, the government Falling
People wake up survival Is calling.

       Wars braking out, people are
              Fighting, riots are starting

   The buildings on fire,  death everywhere
     Earth will crumble, left with only despair
            Panic, death and destruction
                   This pain I can't bear
    
     I will remember the time my family and I shared
       If I wasn't alive, would anybody care.

   Red flames lighting up the sky, however,
     This is nothing like the fourth of July
   It's not just sad, it's bad, am I going crazy
                                    Or
                 Do I have a right to feel mad

       I can't resist the feeling of killing
Now life will never be daisy, I just went insane and crazy, as long as I'm still
                           Standing
       Nobody will harm my family
                 An attempted suicide
    they should have a tattoo on their forehead, reading
                       slay me.
My first poem posted ever on any platform, hope to continue
