the freedom of not being chosen frees up your Fridays, your DMs, your thoughts. all of a sudden you have all this time to spend with yourself, the cat, your friends, even with strangers. your evenings, once filled by longing and the dreadful ritual of distracting yourself with anything at hand to avoid the unbearable waiting. for a text. for a sign. breadcrumbs beggar amateur female .hopeless romantic 25. single. self-respect – work in progress. I tell myself I don’t need the validation from a guy who learned emotional literacy from Pokémon Go, a guy who spends the little time he has for himself arguing with strangers on FB or posting on insta like its his job.. he makes me laugh. but he also leaves me baffled, confused, he has me analyzing and “decoding” every word, touch, action. he acts as an incomplete puzzle. all nonchalant and breezy. but little does he know, I lose interest in puzzles rather quickly.

the puzzle
FRIENDSHIP: All in the same ship or All in the same boat. Friends do their best To understand things Shared by friends. FRIENDSHIP TO SOME: The interests of a politician An agenda manipulating Your position. FRIENDSHIP TO ME: It is not a dictatorship It does not grab the wheel It always makes you feel You are in control. Friendship does not focus On fates remains It cloaks your fears and Shares the blame. Friendship is not a forfeit It closes ears and eyes To those that accuse and Deny though on a certain Level it always remembers Because its failsafe can Never forget. DEEPER FRIENDSHIP: And then there is a Deeper purer friendship Based upon unconditional Love and mutual respect Which catapults it Into a whole new Dimension of caring and Nurturing Which Transcends simply caring For its own and glorifying Its bones in a well-kept Grave of the status quo But grows into an Uncanny respect and Caring for others Beyond cliquish and Familial bonds. FRIENDSHIP'S BASIS: Often made of the Imperfect Of things that may Seem To contradict. It often overlaps Most relationships. And though it may not Seem to be a monolith We must sometimes stand Alone on plains unknown.

The Friendship Agenda
I am known to have several hobbies, as I also have significant prowess in each. Because in anything that I do and whatever I want to try, I always do it naturally and good just like a bird taking flight. When it comes to new interests, I am simply the best student. I learn and plan carefully with method and execute flawlessly with madness. Calling and pulling down rain like a God, I water my passions like lilies in the garden. When it comes to new knowledge, I am a servant yet the queen of this village. A newcomer gangster who rules the streets, I am feared in every turn and corner. Yet an overqualified maiden on the sheets, I am tenderly adored and kissed better. When learning about new languages, I dedicate it only for the arts and letters. Speak foreign words like it's teenage love, I've sworn this is only on paper, not my lips. Sing fluently like my head with heels above, I swallow my pride and swing my hips. When talking about arbitraries and goals, I am never not in the know from the get-go. I am an angel who sets and builds the stage, when I show up, nobody feels the breeze. Yet I am the devil that gambles and trades, in my refusal everybody finds their release.

Hobbies And Arbitraries
I noticed that all I talked about is just myself being lost, and not about an individual who is found. ye skies extended up and above Clouds, forests, and roses with its thorns peeking out Mist of feelings swirling like a roundabout; Was I the one who chose to enter, knowing that there is no way out? Inside this maze, that leaves me to doubt

Labyrinth
a dusty room filled with sorrow old interests now hallow boxes all piled up silent as an old tomb the abandoned backroom once golden shining rings you can see the grimy buildup on the items you tried to cover up in the corner sits a broken violin for the music that once flew on wings that old case is full of wood and strings

I remember loving things. I remember loving the dance of leaves and their shadows. I remember loving an artist’s singing. I remember listening to the harmonies for the first time. The double voiced thing that danced with the drums and the guitars. Dancing. I remember loving dancing.

a lil intro
There’s something interesting to notice When one shares their poems Out there For one and all to see There are certain patterns Certain people That read certain poetry When I write short, sweet, to the point Two lines Or three Certain people flock When I write long With depth, almost like a story Others stalk Then when I let out my inner cynic, Try something new Rant out my views I get a whole nother crowd all together Comprising sometimes, those from the former two as well Some go for depressing, Trying to find someone who matches Their own soulful nature Others would rather settle For some lighthearted fun And still yet more Would choose something else And I wonder how do you choose How do you pick amongst the multitudes? Do you even care? Or is it what’s right in front of your eyes? Perhaps it’s based on what you like to write? What you’d like to do? What you’d like to be? Who you’d like to be? Is there even an answer key? Is there ever?

Who Reads my Poems?
One would opt for Scooby Doo and Agatha Christy The other for cheesy romance Asian dramas and light novels One would rather be building the sets The other, on the stage One cares nothing at all for other’s thoughts The other cares too much One wants to be a police woman The other simply cannot choose It shouldn’t be possible Yet it is And perhaps, it is their extreme differences that bring them together That keeps them from clashing Or, Maybe something in their respective personalities finds solace in the other Whatever the case They are best friends

Best Friends
The first one A bully Keeping me on a leash Under threat of abandonment The second one left Moved to another state Robbing me even Of the opportunity to be chosen To cut his goodbye cake The third one was too girly Weak willed, too easily embarrassed and self conscious One who’d rather Be the star of a pretend fashion show Than attempt dangerous and Exciting escapades In the playground The fourth were a pair But new schools Different interest New friends New workloads Made it difficult to keep up And the relationship drifted away The fifth were once again a pair But, too caught up in each other Until a falling out with one And a lack of opportunities to see the other And eventual conflict between the two Shattered that relationship to a fragment of its former self The sixth was too self obsessed With too many problems of her own Sleep deprivation Prone to sicknesses Struggling with classes And a general lack of social awareness And extreme denseness And seriousness Ended that too And now, I’m on the seventh We shall see how it goes Thus far we are two completely different specimens of people One would opt for Scooby Doo and Agatha Christy The other for cheesy romance Asian dramas and light novels One would rather be building the sets The other, on the stage One cares nothing at all for other’s thoughts The other cares too much One wants to be a police woman The other simply cannot choose It shouldn’t be possible Yet it is And perhaps, it is our extreme differences that bring us together That keeps us from clashing Or, Maybe something in our respective personalities find solace in the other Whatever the case I hope we last

Interests
Cool beans. You shine for me when I am in despair. I will be your light when you are in darkness. You are still with me even when I am not there. I have chosen to invest in your interests. If you are in need, then count on me, To do all I can to see you through. I will always be a man of peace. Try to shout at me if you want to And I will remain the same, cool beans. The swinging sixties are in my dreams. The hippie in me is looking for love, So if you are the one I have been thinking of, Then please give me a free hug. I will not give up until I make your day And make your smile; Have a nice stay, For the rest of my life, By being on my side. If you are, I will always remain, Only a heartbeat away.

Cool beans
Verbalizing out her interests attracted opportunities. She planned to play with every insecurity, learning, growing and blooming with every opening. She just had to take a chance for the possibility. Event hough she was dubious and stuttering. But soon there would be rhythm and fluency and there she would find unity in a community.

It's a place where you would rather not be engaged in a quarrel and unable to agree. Between two strangers or with one you know in a display of words disagreement to show. A sad state of affairs and opposite of harmony usually about something they did not foresee. Ending with both parties not seeing eye to eye and very often it's without a clear reason why. It could be one taking more and giving back less to the other who considers the matter in distress. Or perhaps ignoring to do what should be done in our duty to one another that incurs a bad run. If a lack of trust or deception has been at play there are suspicions that don't easily go away. 'Honesty's the best policy' known and cherished without this relationships only end up perished. Especially when there are two interests at stake one against the other much trouble they'll make. Keep away from being at loggerheads if you can as it may end up in a fight with your fellow man. _______________

At Loggerheads
I met someone today. They seemed nice. Swallowing my fears, I approach her. We talked for hours. She's nice, as my suspicions confirmed. Why am I doing this? Set a date and time. Meet her there. She's wearing this dress that is so vibrant, it feels like it extends through time. My legs feel like gelatin. I sit down with her. We continue our conversation as planned, an- wait you like THAT? Nevermind. I thought you were cool, But you like THAT. And to think I... THAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Forget it. Forget me. We're through.

We All Like Different Things
It’s not their level of education It’s not their level of wealth It’s not their looks It’s not the way they dress It’s not where they come from It’s not their background It’s not their interests It’s not their personality It’s not their music taste It’s not you It’s not me… It’s simply love. There is way more to love Than what we think. Love is and will always be The only thing That will bind two souls together.

Simply Love
It's a kind of blindness, never been there, never seen there. Not through my own eyes, just in films and stills. Even here I bring the blinds down on native town and countryside. Don't see what changes and what doesn't, trying too much to cope with the present, future and imagined virtual fights. So what do others see? I can't use their eyes. Can they be my spies? Can they infiltrate? Can they secure my interests? Or are they double agents for some other clandestine cause?

Eye contact
War by proxy, the future of conflict super powers clashing on foreign soil in battles fought by locals divided into camps pitted against their own for differing convictions not for the lack of reasons; fuel to the fire added by their recruiters propaganda, subterfuge, subversion; no need to worry about ordnance and military hardware, ammo and suplies they will be provided duly by the sponsors; the agenda is to drown a patch of land in blood, with an island built from bones lonely in the middle, just big enough for a g-man to set foot upon, tie the laces of his boot; an then move on. But what of all the residue? Nothing goes to waste all will be reused blood to fuel bones to amunition surviving souls to generations of hate slaves If you're elsewhere building an oasis somewhere peaceful, someplace quiet, watch your back and keep an eye on the silent sky there are birds of steel and wires with their artificial brains roaming, cruising, watching, their senses and their talons lent to their puppeteers, mere employees looking for a chance, at that multikill promotion fingers itching at the joystick... but outside and back at home, a prison cell of boredom waits to chew them in slow motion to the bombed and the bombing, to the greedy and the mourning, we don't call this life hell is real we're both prey and hunter madness is contagious and haunting
