encomium
Many times in my past, My take on life Was a puzzling grasp Of truths and lies. In my mind, In my heart, I thought I was middling smart. That's what I've depended on, Yet I was phished by the con. It comes from the side Of your weakest eye, While you think you're helping This other guy. The hit is done with such aplomb. That's the beauty of the con. I'm still as smart as I thought I was, But wiser now, Just because, I was the victim of a scam. With reticence now, I'm the lesser man. He was slick; I was tricked When I let my guard slip By a con's phishing trip. But never again. I promise this.

Gone Phishing
Loyalty and Honesty Are such old fashion qualities. Now Hatred and Envy Are real celebrities and followed by paparazzi. These celebrities have made us blind, Destroying this world that was just fine. They were first created in our mind And flows down to our heart via our spine . Now the devil is laughing and saying lol, We have prioritized these qualities above all. We do not understand that we are all equal We have stoop down so low to find everyone's faults. Many are teaching about goodness But practising in our daily life is the hardest. Injustice, bloodshed is what we witness, But have no power to stand against evil's greatness. No power doesn't mean we are weak It means we are allowing the devil to play hide and seek. Right in our minds, hearts and cheek We have becomes fans of the worst freak. J. Mathew

there's this pattern that I keep on going circles at for everything I gained I lost something in return but I guess I just never understand which losses were worth losing and which gains were worth acquiring

gains and losses
What’s wrong with me? When it came to dealing with others, I never saw myself in a negative way. But now, all I notice is my pessimistic nature. Do the cons always outweigh the pros? No, of course not, but lately I remember more bad things than good.

Love
There's instant soup Instant milk Blogs full'a goop Bugs in your blink Instant coffee Instagram Love like toffee Stuck in your spam Instant high Instant fluff Wherever you look There's bang for your buck God forbid Delete it all Switch it off Feel the mad withdrawal And go back to the land Grow your own Get a cow or a goat Forget your phone Finish the weeding Chat with a rose Stand in a summer shower Smell the smells in your nose Listen to the night Owls, foxes, wrens Watch the slow boiling Smoke dancing in little rings

I find it scary to love someone like this. You give everything you have your love, time & attention. Hoping that they will do & feel the same way like you do. Missing them every single time, making sure that they're happy & remain contented with you, & your love. Doing everything that you could to make sure that they wouldn't leave you, alone. At the same time, giving them space & freedom that they want & deserve. To make sure they won't feel locked, stuck & chained with you. Loving someone so deeply, pure, sincere & innocent is not an easy task. This might sound narcissistic, but I admire myself & those who has done it? It is scary, yes. No assurances that all of it wouldn't be wasted. Maybe that's the beauty of love Making smart & logical people; dumb, fearless & illogical. Driving human beings, insane & risking it all, for the name of love.

Pros and Cons of Love
I love Lightning when no claps of thunder trail it I love the pitter-patter of rain outside when I am dry inside I love you when feelings remain requited I love everything until I see each layer

honestly the thought of a boy being all googly eyes over me sounds great but the thought of a boy crushing my heart when he is done with me isn't so great the thought of a boy being by my side every time I need his voice the most sounds like a blessing to my young soul but the thought of that same boy calling me names when we are out of love hurts me more than the break up of our love.

pro and con
She wasn't so special. She wasn't even that pretty, and her hair was always a mess, she had tired eyes, also her knees were too skinny and her voice was too loud. She was always in her own world never paying attention to anything I had to say, always scribbling in that notebook of hers I never got a chance to read. She laughed pretty much about anything, and had an opinion about everything, seriously. Okay, she was that pretty. In fact, the world beautiful wouldn't bring her justice in her worst day. Her hair was a mess, that's for sure, it always fell over her face and I used to pull it back gently. And maybe she had tired eyes for staying up until the moon went to sleep waiting for my 'I'm home' text. I got to say I loved the skinniness of her knees, I remember thinking she was secure with me, that nothing wrong would ever happen to her. She was a loud person, which kind of came in handy whenever she had to stand up for herself, watching her speak up always made me proud. She was a daydreamer, always over analizing everything, picturing different scenarios and each possible outcome. She promised she would show me that notebook, I remember she mentioned once how every thought that crossed her mind she wrote, that always fascinated me. And her laugh, man, that I could never hate, I would have done anything to hear her laugh. She always told me how having an opinion about everything made her interesting, but I knew that already, for I found her fascinating since the moment I met her. She knew who she was and she knew what she wanted, I wish I had figured that out before. It's too late now.
