Love should be the only epidemic
that reaches and infects the entire world
Be careful little lady for the world is ill
It beguiles you deeply to its will
And then you wake up everyday with no thrill

Love they judge as taboo
The hopeful who cares they misconstrue
As an idiot with a loose *****

The truth is but a faraway fancy
With people living for themselves only
Lies here and there, truth being heard deafly

Peace is a dying cliche
Violence, aggression all they pray
The dignity of many turning into decay

So you see my dear,sweet innocence
Open your eyes but embrace this reality with grievance
One that has lost its meaning and balance
But with you, a believer, a kind soul, might still give it a chance
Do take action with love and not vengeance
For you can still save a world stripped of conscience
This is the (sort of) sequel to my poem A Letter to Mother. This would be like the mother's reply to her child's questions. I urge everyone who gets to read this to let your little siblings or children  know how they can take action in issues that have shaken and continue shaking our morale as a society.
The clamor and crash of the crowd
The sharp tongues of the hypocrites
Do not deter me
For I,
I believe in myself

The rules that aligned reality
The prejudices that vacuum me into a box
Do not grip me by the neck
For I,
I believe in myself

The life of a pariah
The fate of the defeated
Tremble me not
For I,
I believe in myself

Days of disaster and chaos
The years of misery
And the heartbreak of living
I shall smile upon them all
For I,
I believe in myself.
I hope you get something out of this. Was having rough days as of recent and this is my way of getting by.
She finds beauty in everything, in everyone
But she can't find any in herself.
You
I've never believed in forever
Nor of the thought of true love,
But  YOU came in my life
,and you shattered that belief of mine
And threw it on my face.
And I love you for it.

You are the reason why I believe in true love.
You are the reason why I could believe in a forever.

I once said to my self that I never needed
any kind of love from someone.
But YOU came and destroyed that belief,
You showed me that there was something
Better, better for me.

And that thing (person really)
Was You.
For her the woman that made me feel love and loved that I have never known to be possible
<<
It ***** being
afraid to wake you up.
because your dreams,
are better then our reality.
Lust - love = nothing

Love - lust = something

Love + lust = everything

You are your heartache
You are your mistake
You are your destiny
You are your catastrophe

Your thoughts are your poison
Transmuting to mindless action
Your words your dagger
That yourself can only conquer

You are the world you create
You are the answers you await
Be your own mentor, hero and friend
For the one who makes your life is you
In the end.
we live and grow
and breathe
through scars ~
but heartache is not a metaphor..
