#somethingelse
Poets are something else They stand apart,in a world torn apart They see beauty in ashes Who does that? They understand the grasses They see nature in magical glasses That's what their mind are made of So they see beauty in ugly stuff No one understands pain more No one understands love more Their honesty is incomparable They are simply God's miracle Their imaginations are vast Larger than the very universe put togther They are never stingy For they share their soul They are messengers of hope They should be enshrined as gods Yet no true poet wants that They simply want to share Not for glory or immortalization Yet they are born immortals Whose words alter the course of time They bring healing to a sick world Relief to a pained world They're God's treasured ones If you doubt me, Read the psalms of david And the proverbs of Solomon Read the Ecclesiastes And see how God carefully planned them Treasures them, and nature's them This fills the devil with envy And he sends trials their way They're often torn, rejected, dejected Beaten time and after Yet they bring beauty to sufferings And touch the core of your very soul Poets are really something else That's why they're often misunderstood Once, I wasn't much of a poet So it was hard to see, How a fellow man makes suffering desirable But since I began the journey, I now understand why poets are something else, different from the rest of the world RESPECT  to every poet out there,RESPECT.

POETIC RESPECT
The ways you see life determines what you value, what you value determines what you learn, What you value determines what you live for What you live for determines how you live So if you see life as: A poem, you learn words A problem you solutions A relation,you learn communication A game, you learn tricks A battle, you learn to fight A job, you learn duty A race,you learn speed A marathon, you learn endurance A study, you learn logic An act, you learn emotions A music, you learn notes A dance you learn steps A beat, you learn to dance A community you learn people A weather, you learn shelter A storm you learn strength A turn, you learn patience A trade you learn money A jungle you learn survival An ocean, you learn to swim A mountain you learn scaling A valley, you learn graceful descent A commitment you learn honesty A death zone, you learn killing A mystery, you learn adventure An adventure, you learn living A fashion you learn dressing A competition you learn scarcity A cooperation you learn abundance A team work you learn networking A lie, you learn to the truth A truth, you learn freedom The goal to being free is to learn your lies, challenge and face them A job you learn duty, When you see life as comparison, you learn envy Destructive envy leads to priority misplacement, This leads to value misplacementzthe root cause of shortsightedness and selfishness So, see right to learn right to live right

SOMETHING ELSE II
They say no one survives the devil They were wrong I survived you They say man's heart is evil A place no good belongs That describes you I survived the devil, I became mysteriously strong I survived true, But I became something else A legend everyone tells Mystifying,casting spells It's good being something else Living my dreams,not of someone else

**SOMETHING ELSE**
I've dreamed of dreams, Sleeping through the nights, Through the forest of darkness No one in sight, I relate my dreams to reality Oonce I wake up the veil drops, And I can't figure out what is what Am I living in my fantasy Or is all of this real What I want to do and What I'm forced to do Surreal, Living in a world of someone else Do you feel like someone else? Walk the road someone else was meant to Breathe the air which belonged to someone else Wish I could dream lucidly Vividly Twirling down the rabbit's hole Be someone I want to be In a world where money, matters most All these cruel people around me Fail to understand what I want to be I see this dream And I dream about it The person I am And someone I'll never be.

I'll never be
"Get out of my head!" I chuck the tea kettle as hard and as far as I can. You ducked your head out of the way at the last possible second. How unsatisfying.

Things i wish would happen in real life (1)
Here it is in a nutshell: I want to know that it isn't all for you. That you knew we were part of this too. That you knew we went through the same kind of pain. That you missed me. That you wanted to make it better. But if this is all there is. I'm still going to take it. Because it's better than nothing. But hey, I was there. I was there. I suffered. It isn't all about you. You can't tell me that you missed anything about our friendship? Then I guess there wasn't one to begin with. I almost went to the same dark and empty spaces. I tried so suppress everything. I suffered. And I suffered just as much as you. You don't get to "win" at having the worst outcome. Nobody won. Just because you weren't there to see the pain, doesn't mean it wasn't there. Just because you never saw me do anything, doesn't mean it never happened. I was here. And I've been here the whole time. Okay. I'm done being mad. I'm done. Being mad.

Here's to hoping that day 2 actually happens this time. I'll throw up an "Amen" because I need it and because I want it. So just... Hear me.
