I can't tell if the stinging in my eyes
Is from my tears
Or from keeping my eyes
Open in the rain
Too long.
Both end up blurring my vision anyway.
I don't mind though.
Because if there is a God,
And he's up there,
Then at least I know
He's as frustrated as I am.
And he deserves to be.

The world has gone dark that you can't really tell
Whether your eyes are shut or wide open
eve Jul 2020
busy contemplating
when one should be taking responsibility,
accountability for what has been said
and done.
with you,
i am me
i throw away all of my mistakes
worries, doubts, regrets
when i think of you
i stop everything
to sit and reminisce
your handsome face
the warmth of your body
something i held close to me, at some point
i wish i would’ve
cupped your face
pull you into me
and feel your rosy lips
brush up against mine.
i would trade the world
for another day
just me and you
facing each other
we would take a deep breath
and let the words escape
after all is said
and done
we will embrace each other
cling onto each other
like a magnet would
or like an innocent child,
holding onto momma’s hand.
Without the vision, people are rarely reminiscent
Of what they have been looking for,
And fall into a deep torpor.
Maybe it's this slumber that makes them realize,
All that they wanted to be was right there
In front of their own eyes.
With such strong desires held in her soul,
A fire was ignited in her heart
A rustling of leaves somewhere in the woods,
Where she sat somewhere along the brook
Pondering to herself,
Is happiness all I seek?
Or maybe it is just one of life's very old tricks
And it reeks.
With such a heavy heart
She walks alone into the woods,
Contemplating whether life is something
She ever understood.
the warm rays that used to engulfs me
now starting to fade

where does the tunnel lead to
cause I can't see where the end is

Bird's eye view; vision.
Like the T.V but better.
Message unhindered.

I am half the man I am.
When in myself I don’t believe.
Half the steam, half of the love.
Half of the bright will to live.

I smile half of my smiles,
When my flowers don’t bloom,
I run half of the miles,
Weighed down by clouds of gloom.

I dance half of the time,
With doubts in every step.
With this scared heart of mine,
When it is a wreck.

I see only half my blessings
When the night blinds my soul
The naive kid, forgetting
Within lies a heart of Gold.

Half of the time I wonder,
Why I’m half the man in me, just
Is it a cosmic blunder,
Or is it myself I don’t trust?
