#nexus
*I choose to remain calm in life
I choose to pacify my anger and hatred
I learned a lot by listening
and destroying hatred with love.
We must understand that
The said nexus is real.
Without war, there won't be peace,
Without hate, there won't be love,
Without death, there won't be life.
Because this is reality.
I can turn the tables if I must.
I can consume you with fire if I want.
I can destroy you- leaving your heart in tiny fragments
Like shrapnel stuck in the undwelled parts of your body.
But reality's deeper than these.
Reality's deeper than me.
Reality is all within us.
Accept it as it is.
Never fight with the nexus.
Hold on to it, but do destroy the hatred inside you.*

The next could be us,
Ponder the connection?
Soldiers of Lives
Peons of the Eons
Messengers of Millennia
Souls of Seasons
Hands; smooth, tender
Eyes; sensitive, splendor
Heart; calloused, hardened
Soul; damaged , darkened
Two kingdoms, one Land
Reign of Heart, leads to hand in hand
Monarchy of Mind, breeds chaos in the silence
Duel kingdoms, inner conflicts under one alliance
The next could be us,
But not quite us.

Birth
In the womb
In labor, boom!
Enabler
Her he enabled
Now she's disabled
Interstellar
Travel to Mars
Next stop stars
Math Test
Don't be hysterical
It's only numerical
Singapore
Long awaited summit
Ascend or plummet?
Unlikely Nexus
Hooked on drugs
Lack of hugs?

****** into a turbulent nexus
Exceeding ability to cope
Sucker-punched in my solar plexus
Victim of life's rope-a-dope
