A quiet afternoon,
A boy watching cartoons,
Eyes on the door,
Not exploring his core.

He is lost in his path,
Believing he has passed,
But the answers are unknown,
And he faces them alone.

What should he do?
Do you have a clue?
He's lost in thought,
In a world so new.

What would you do,
If you were there too?
The boy is me. Written on a quiet day, when I felt lost but couldn’t say.
Smile, smile , smile hey human,
Not just because the world expects it .


Smile because,
Your soul needs it ,
Your heart needs it ,
Your mind needs it,
Your victory needs  it ,
Your dreams need it,
Your love needs it,
Your courage needs it ,
Your strength needs it ,
Your journey needs it ,
Your fears need it ,
Your tears need it ,
Your healings need it ,
Your failures need it.


Hey human, don't  let your precious smile fade.
Smile, smile , smile, hey human,
Because your happiness lies  within you.
Smile , smile, smile, hey human

"Never should you ever give up" was always her call
My reply was; Darling, what if I fall?

He will catch you, show you the right path
In a moment, my mind was back to the times of drought

I stood, I crumbled, I climbed, I flew
But who was behind this, knew only a few

When quiet-screams echoed in silences
Who shielded (you) wretched, in times of violence

It rains, thunders, it shines again
His remembrance alone will keep you from being vain

A sigh, a tear, and a gentle prayer
Was all, my Darling, wanted to hear.

How to gain the confidence to complete a simple task?
a bit of a lighter note than other poems I’ve been posting lately…
Asuka Mar 27
I don’t have what they call success,
But that doesn’t make me any less.
I walk a path that’s mine to pave,
A different way—a road I'm brave.

No paper defines the worth I hold,
No stamp, no seal, no weight of gold.
Nothing to lose, nothing to fear,
I stand my ground, my vision clear.

I won’t fall begging for their boots,
I won’t steal—I’ll grow my roots.
Hard work builds, while greed decays,
I’ll walk the honest, brighter ways.

I fear no gods, but deeds gone wrong,
No villain’s path, no hero’s song.
I won’t be shaped by how they see,
I am the lead—my life, my key.

Their words can’t shake what I define,
I breathe, I stand, the sky is mine.
One day, I’ll rise, I’ll claim my place,
Their doubts won’t reach my guarded space.

I am not my past, nor sins before,
Not bound by blood that schemed for more.
I am the fearless, standing tall,
Unfazed by loss, untouched by fall.

I died the day I came alive,
Yet here I stand, I burn, I thrive.
The monster I once feared to be,
Now walks with pride—now walks as me.

A blue bloom where red ones grow,
Unfit for them, yet strong, I glow.
Let them judge, let whispers swirl,
I love myself—that shakes their world.
Being born in a poor family doesn't define your potentials. The key is balance acknowledging difficulties but also fostering a mindset of strength, adaptability, and perseverance.
I am rooting for you. Don't give up!!◉⁠‿⁠◉

The thought of art
is a wonderful start—
to explore yourself,
your impactful part.

The thought of art
is a wonderful start—
to believe your truth,
your dreams, your heart.

The thought of art
is a wonderful start—
to show, to lure,
to grow, be pure.

The thought of art
has a meaningful part—
to show the world
your love, your heart.

The thought of art
captivates your heart
and makes one wonder—
Is this the end, or just the start?

Pessimism..
What is pessimism?
Pessimism is when effort isn’t
It’s when the darkest roads
inside the tunnels that you drive
feels safer than your destination
It’s when that internal fear of peace
Sabotages your beliefs
so you refuse to listen
When that voice of reason
in you're head
becomes a danger to your safety
So you decide to give in,
to pessimism..

Pessimism..

When every new light
feels surrounded by a darkness
Every new height
keeps you grounded at the bottom
And every road traveled, no doubt,
has road damage regardless..
Ya it’s easy to say nothing works out
because your own self-sabotage
seems like the safer route
But quitting isn’t an option
So as you repair your own optics
let this water your garden:

Baby put down those narcotics
Because there’s an end to that bottle
And it ain’t what you’re wanting
This life is the gift that you’re given
to understand the lows
make you appreciate the highs
And the highs
make you appreciate the climb
And learn the sharpest knowns
come from the darkest moments
for you to appreciate your shine
So let your heart and mind align
To stop from only ever growing tired…
And only ever grow higher
only ever grow upwards..
only ever grow wiser.

Pessimism

when that optimism seems gone
Realize that you’ve been there
for yourself all along
And that life works for you,
You can always find your light
You just needed a little push
And in the end, It’ll all be right.
..everything is going to all be alright.
A contrast poem to my previous poem “Optimism”.

They say:
Unsee their eyes,
Unlearn their feelings,
Clear your mind, and
Just focus on your dreams.
But the question is—
What is my dream?

Is it art?
Or is it music?
Maybe it’s both,
'Cause music itself is an art, right?

Or maybe it’s a boy,
Looking in the mirror,
Asking questions about
Affection and attraction.

Or maybe it’s a girl,
With soft eyes and a fake gaze.
But if it’s a girl,
Then it’s difficult to achieve, right?

Maybe it’s something else,
Yet to be discovered.
Or maybe it is discovered,
But I am still figuring it out.
Maybe I know what it is,
But I don’t know how to reach it.
Maybe I have taken a step,
Yet the path ahead remains uncertain.

Or maybe it is already achieved.
But if it is already achieved,
Then it is not a dream—
It is reality, right?

And if it is reality,
Then what is my dream?
Just a thought that wouldn’t leave my mind—so I wrote it down.

Unsee, unlearn, let go.
Listen to their untrue laughter, then
walk away.
Unsee their eyes,
unlearn their feelings,
clear your mind, and
just focus on your dreams,
'cause their untrue laughter
won't help you sleep.
The creatures dwell in a dark wood, where no ray of sunlight dares to enter. They can tear you apart and shatter your soul with out any black magic.

Oh, my sunbeam, do not wander there; they will darken you. Their shadows will consume your light.

But do not be afraid. Go forth—become the hunter who fears nothing. Hunt them down before they hunt you.

Spread your wings like Azrael, and with one mighty sweep, wrap every foul creature into oblivion.

Do not be deceived by the illusion of their innocent faces -they are creature disguised as fairies.
