I fell into a hole,
I thought it was my grave
With no one to console,
I was stuck not like a mole
Life I began to crave
And the hole became a cave
just a random lil diddy

"The sea complains upon a thousand shores"

Yet, I miss your current

passing through me

infinitely I tread this water

in the hopes you will soon awaken

like new horizon

"my precious, the sea will never rest"

~

When I fear
loss,
I accept the course of destiny
and this acceptance calms me down;
then I proactively prudently strive with optimism
to do whatever I can
to avoid the loss,
and this striving I enjoy.
Carl D'Souza Feb 2021
When I am unhappy
about some aspect of my life,
I still enjoy
the basic experience of being alive:
the stimulating
sights
sounds
tastes
smells
tactile sensations and
introspective ****** experiences;

I still enjoy
striving with optimism
to improve my situation
so I can be happier;

I still enjoy
being happy
about those aspects of my life
which I can feel happy about.

it is not words
not even laughter
not a smile
nor a gesture
an expression
or opinion

there could be
silence;
nothing
but silence
and
our stillness

it would still be true.

we are stuck
between Scylla
                           and
        Charybdis
we know the path we must take
but
I fear
we will ignore
the warnings

we are still off course

Rushes that come with risk:
some, get that with money
some, with the market
coming out the other end somehow exponentially
better off

For me
the buoyant thoughts
of all the possibilities open
coming out the other side
I do by gambling
love
by tossing in intrepid
change
by bluffing
emotions
by raising
mortal
risk
This
is the life worth gambling for
This
is the life I worth living

The Fearful, step aside
there are tides I need to ride
BEST OF BAD

When life throws rocks  at you catch and make sure you hit and Smith the rocks perhaps you could turn it gold.

Make the best of bad circumstances. Only when you give up,
That's when your soul dies, circumstances don't break you,
It only make you, and also can break you if you allowed it to.
And vise versa...
When life give a **** about you, don't, Neva let up,
Don't halt when thou art tired.
Rest when yew  accomplished.

It's only one way up hold your head stand tall in all. Smile at life in time keep moving don't stop!

Why seek to dream as dreamers do,
when only nightmares are the ones to come true?

Why seek a lover who soon may part,
leaving exposed bare soul and a broken heart?

Why seek to hang on to joy and hope,
when a mind is so tired in can hardly cope?

Why does my soul seek and crave such things,
I don't really know... lets see what tomorrow brings.
Hope just refuses to lay down and die....
So many tomorrows have come and gone...
Perhaps tomorrow...

Out of blue
All I hear
When less is more
With that glimpse of
Consoling smile
Hypnotic affection
Soul reviving optimism

When you gaze at me
The truth in your eyes
With tender silence
Honestly tells me
Everything
I want to know

"Finding a way"
"Let me stay in your thought"
"Close enough"
"Then tell me all"
"You want to say"
"That sets me free"

For that, I called
You are the One
Worth waiting for
You are my home
To wake into another
Genre: Almost Romantic
