This is the reality in which we live;
In such a messed up world
Where lives are nothing but points to give.

Where is the word of the common man?
Spreading misinformation hand and hand.

Help! Said he, a refugee
Save me from demise.

Save us all, from our land of lies,
For in the west we have it all,
But no one sees, as the world does fall.

I beckon for us to call a truce,
To help out those in dire need -
But to help won't satiate our greed.

We would rather watch a brother bleed,
Than share with another, our own feed.

Help us all, for we are ******.

Do not take me as I am
I am not the person you wish me to be
I am lost, in the search of clarity.
Ironic though it must be.
Found it in a notebook from a rough couple of months

You don't know
you're beautiful
because
he never told you.

You don't know
your words matter
because
he never listened.

You don't know
the strength of your heart
because
he always broke it.

You don't know
you can bloom
because
his words were always a drought.

You don't know
the truth
because
he always lied.

You don't know
because
he never did either,
but i do.

Let me help you find out,
please.
You deserve to know your own value
It's important you know,
not to break bread with everyone.
Some are made of sour dough,
and some live just to make it.

i am an empty vessel
in a world revolving around extraction

if i am valued against what i can give the world,
then i am of no value.

nothing can be reaped from me;
for nothing has been sowed.

Sleep well my love..
I will always be thankful
for everything you've done for me..
I have always been grateful
for the love you've shown me.
I may not be the most perfect girl
you've ever met,
but I know for sure
that nobody can ever love you
the way that I do.

I will always be thankful
that God brought you to me
not only to love you
but to learn many things from you..
I will always be looking up on you..
I don't judge you for anything,
everything happens for a purpose.
I've suffered enough from my mistakes.
I've felt the greatest pain I never thought existed.

But here I am, facing each day
with a promise of goodness and positivity.
I am still hurting but i know it won't last forever.
I'm just submitting myself to it because its easier than denying myself to feel pain.
My life is not perfect, but I don't really Care.
I can conquer anything when we are together.  I can be the strongest when I'm with you.

I value you and I respect you.
Whatever life may bring me,
the space you occupy in my heart will always be yours
Even if you don't love me anymore. :)

I love you to the moon and back!
From head to toe.
I love you for who you are
and I will never do a thing
to change anything about you.

What had happened
has happened
We can only move on and start anew
and never do the same mistakes again..

If we are meant to be together,
whatever obstacle God will throw upon us,
at the end of the day,
we will come back to each other's arms.
If not, well, let's thank Love for passing by.
I am still deeply in love with you. :)
crazy but what can I do.
It's my heart. It won't lie to me and you.
To the man who owns the key to my heart.

There are those who do possess
All that they might need and more
Who despite that nonetheless
Least appreciate their lot.
There are those who have much less
But appreciate much more
What little they do possess
And make the most of their lot.
Perhaps in life happiness
Depends not on having more,
But on focusing far less
On those things we have not got.

I say I'm
not looking
for love but
I'm looking
I'm catching
cold glances
from eyes filled
with the weight of
sorrow been cast in gold
My purposeful fingers
reach up for money from
the gutters, this,
is just what I'm told.
Enter my ears,
enter my eyes,
enter my skin,
into my lungs.
I'm not breathing
oxygen if I exhale
byproduct. I'm out
of luck, won't press it.
I'm out of reason in
speech. Beyond
preventable death.
Regret, turned to
malice. Chest
compression. I
could have been
a good person.
What value in gold,
if I have you?

In between nitrous gas
And passive aggressive small talk,

"Its too bad about your teeth"
He said.

"You got a good face, bad mouth"

And I'm really laughing now.

Daddy's been screamin that my whole life.

worth is not in my vocabulary,
I am without it.
there is no worth around me,
no value or importance.
leaving myself to believe
that worth is just a construct.
I will not focus on it,
for I am utterly useless.
holding on to anything
that will get me through the day,
nothing that contains worth.
there is no point in the world,
yet I am still searching for it.
