#congratulations
One day, I’ll tell you how much
I’m happy for you
without the sound of glacier
falling away
into the gentle sea
The moon will not lock the tides
of salt and dust,
swirling ancient civilizations
that have long forgotten my name
in the night
Someday, my lungs will breathe
the air of this solitary room,
eating the poor bread of my soul
given to me
once only a million years ago
I will not sleep at night,
dreaming of being reborn again,
to feel the same fire
that dazzles over your life
One day, I will smile
at your most glorious days
Not from the same old mask
that has punctured me,
but from my own lips
that cradles soft mellow waves
of earth.
I will no longer hold the sword
that binds me
to the ancient darkness that held
this night together
And I will think of better days

I'm not trying to be a hero.
I just want to be a friend.
Cause they're what stopped the dark thoughts
From turning off all the lights inside my head.
Somewhere along the way, I thought I would be better off alone.
But as your friend, let me tell you something I learned the hard way: you can still get hurt even if you turn your heart to stone.
Letting people in can be scary.
But it just might save your life some day.
And if you're a friend yourself, congratulations. They might not ever say it, but you may be a hero in someone's eyes.

In the details of my mind
The detours where found
Ineloquently I murmur the words
Words that bring forth perils
Places all who hears in jeopardy
I refuse to relent...I speak louder
While "ogres" of the earth jump forth
Exclaiming in all monstrosity
That I am to blame
I recount the activities long forgotten word for word
My voice does not falter
I speak eloquently
Having gathered the strength needed for the task at hand
I work harder
Talk clearer
Walk bolder
And act better than I have ever imagined
Finally Proud of the person I have become

they see the facade, the academic veneer,
but the truth lies hidden, only i hold it dear
the world believes success is all i chase
but i question if i’m running in the right race
i question what truly this journey is worth
am i just building castles on this shifting earth?
amidst textbooks and deadlines, i quietly yearn
for answers not found in a grade i might earn
will this path i’ve chosen be my true fate?
or will i wake up one day, realizing it’s too late?
so when they call me hardworking and bright,
i smile on the surface, hide my inner fight
for behind the facade, the mask i wear,
lies a soul pleading,
“Lord, hear my prayer.”

The life you see an Believe
Everything has meaning and purpose
Between Divine entity, Gods Grace, or heaven itself
Lies are spread to decieve you
To force a belief system
To blind you from fact and truth
The fact of a bigger reason
The fact of a higher being
I'm living my destiny
I'm here speaking a truth
I'm telling you
Wether skinny or fat
Wether cold or hot
Wether blind or having perfect vision
Fight for what you think is fair
Let these words guide you right from wrong
Them steps forward
Them clocks ticking
All come down to a yes or no
Did you make this or are you not real?
A little story
Trapped in a body trapped in a soul I'm a force field no escape looking out not in facing God Himself neverending visions life an death peering through the looking glass perception deception non stop people have failed I'm stuck in a womb with no voice suddenly a door opens lights creeps in my eyes opened staring at a man finally I'm free take me from this slumber wake me up show me what I've longed for begged to feel sun shining dawning on me here we are looking at God Himself oh Lord bless you everyday I'm thankful thankful to just breathe an touch the breeze I promise I'll make you proud...
I hope someday you see what I see
I pray you will believe what I believe
We're on this together
No matter how long we have
At least we have a chance
To face the hands of time
To turn back the tides
My love keep me close and held dear
So when I'm no longer here
Look west
Say we tried
Died
We will always remember
The day we were all saved

Today we are standing in front of our success,
And continue to be independent and presevere to face the challenges,
Without any doubt,
We are confident that we're going to make our parents proud.
Believing in ourselves would make us do what we love to do,
Because there's always someone willing to support you,
Teachers were our second parents at school,
They always lend a hand for the times that we fall.
On our last day,
We must keep going on our different ways,
As wearing a pair of shoes,
That would bring us to the right path that we choose.
We can do our best
And we will together make a difference,
Now it's time to say goodbye,
Laughters and tears are seen in our eyes.
For every challenge that we face
There's always an opportunity for success,
For today's Graduation
Wishing all of you my heartiest Congratulations!

What if I don't want
to get better? This hunger is the only thing
I feel anymore. You abandoned me,
so I sit on the bathroom
floor. I drown out my tears
with lyrics to songs we used
to scream out the car
window. While others congratulate
the damage this hunger has caused,
I obsess over the numbers that
light up whenever I step on
the scale. This is the only thing
I can control anymore. Since
you left.

Shall this sample punctate the front
Again written in invisible ink
To those with no eyes always on the hunt
For a word, or phrase, that brings the link
Footlights the night, blooms the rose 🌹
Artistic communication inspires a try
Sprinkles petaled paths everywhere it goes
Floramour intoxication within tiny ****** of why.

I hope she'll make you happy every day.
You deserve that.

congratulations. you made it through today.
that's something not everyone got a chance to say.
tomorrow, I hope you stop staying silent
just because the words keep getting lost along the way.
but for now, congratulations. you made it through another day.

I’m just trying to eat my french toast and drink my coffee but you keep cutting me off as I’m about to take a sip take a bite asking why I like it with sugar i add a spoonful of creamer and you’re laughing
but not in a loving way
talking about my schoolwork and my plans for the garden
and you skip over the congratulations and mention your ex girlfriend
going on about your ex girlfriend and my face has hardened
i drink my coffee and try not to listen
i eat my french toast and i don’t pay attention
i’m looking at the man with the book eating alone
i’m looking at the waitress wishing she were home
excuse me and i’m up
the bathroom is empty and nobody saw me
the mirror is clean and i am *****
the lights are brighter than i want them to be
and the soap dispenser is empty

we walked together through that old wooden fence
then you asked, 'can we please, please dance?'
I said I was too tired to do anything
'how come you never ask me to dance now?' you asked
I said I didn't know
you looked away from my eyes
nearby a rivulet quietly flows
'now we are built on lies'
I agreed, but I said something else instead
'look, honey, you know I love you'
I was honestly lying
you were right to say what you have said
you looked beautiful today, darling
in that white, white dress of yours
kissing your father's cheek
and your mother's hand
nothing is left of us, darling
at the end none of us were trying
but today I saw you smile again
though you belong to another home now
though I had to say the hardest line in this little life of mine
congratulations on your wedding, Gina.
I'm happy for you
I'm happy...

Congratulations for whatever you have achieved.
Probably nothing special,
but that defines you:
nothing special.

Living for your twisted amusement
I am taking risk after risk
To be friends like I promised
Help you find happiness
When I was your girl that seemed simple
Had it figured out
Life took the things I knew about you
Replaced them with a load of doubt
It all happened within my reach
I was too slow to turn the tides
Losing all I clutched close to my heart
When I wouldn't loosen my grip time pried
Those who predicted our demise
Lifted their gaze to point and laugh
In that position I realized something
I was meant to grow from this mishap
It was a part of my journey
The truth was made openly clear
Dark clouds loomed over sweet perfection
Horizon no longer smudged by denial and fear
Senses aren't functioning very well
In the center of your games
This place I recognize without hesitation
I sit and strategize methods to break the chains
There is no hand to conquer
Though this chess match was fun
I've learned you never play fair
You just cheat and cheat until you've won

One syllable,
three measly letters
And lifetimes of happiness.
The greatest smiles are come from it
The happiest tear is shed
It’s utterance can make you JUMP and LEAP and TWIRL and SPIN or...
Or burst hearts sealed in lead.
And lifetimes of happiness
Three measly letters
One syllable.
Yes.

Congratulations, I whisper,
feeling myself sink in my chair
further down, hoping nobody will notice.
My heart is pounding,
pumping the terrors
that run through my veins.
I don't necessarily understand,
though I know **** well
what's ahead of me.
Good Luck, is whispered back,
answering my acclaim.
You'll need it.

This summer
You’ll
Graduate and her feet will be here.
This morning
I
Sit and count the hours wasted on tears
in just the last 24 hours.
Last weekend
Mum
Asked her to come home, but nowhere feels like home now.
How does one tell a harsh truth like that to her Mum?
She
Knows.
And unfortunately, she knows it all too well.
It’s awful that she does
But it’s comforting, let’s
her
Know
She will always understand.
She still has her.
Where are you?
Do
You
feel better having obtained that piece of paper?
It is the pursuit of that piece of paper you have made all that more arduous for
her.
It’s in your grip,
though.
Just
like I was.
Congratulations.
It’s all said and
Done.
The price has been paid.
The right party has done very well!
Shame
I can’t say the same for
her.
Yet

You played your cards and played them Right,
You should be proud, you won the Fight
You bit the bullet, just like superman Would
SO Funny Lots of folks never thought you Could
They placed your name in print, trying to throw you Down
When all was said and done, They were looking like a Clown
Now for the main attraction, Let's cut the Cake,
SO you can show the world you have what it Takes

I moved on forever,
Though I feel guilty,
I still should get over,
Try did I so to hold on,
Never worrying about my utility,
But now realise the damage,
I just feel so guilty.

Thou no work can in truth be done
Ye may count hours had of fun
Ye may think that tbou hast won
Yet it goes and goes
Lest long hours make ye sad
Try in earnest to be glad
I forbid thee from feeling bad
Nature sews and sews
Like lions roaring shiny pelt
Your noble actions are well felt
Pride young one is how its spelt
Worship of the Jos
Know in you we'll not forget it
Singing high from every pulpit
Have your celebration biscuit
Abandoned are all woes
Joyful joyful those around you
Praise and adoration on cue
Blazing celebrations for you
In happiness' throes.

Maybe it's fate,
Maybe it's destiny.
That losing the battle,
Was meant for me.
I tried my best,
I gave my all.
I'll push through again,
I WILL STAND TALL.
I lost the battle,
Not the war,
I'll spread my wings,
I will soar.
This is simply a lesson,
Life's timely reminder.
Plan well, stay strong.
Be the commander
