Once upon a time, in a world of aspirations,
Lived a garden of dreams, in need of cultivation.
But alas, the flowers there were in a sorry state,
Languishing in darkness, their growth left to fate.

Unwatered and neglected, their petals began to wilt,
Yet no one seemed to notice, their plight remained unbuilt.
The dreams that could bring solace were cast aside,
In shadows they withered, dreams denied.

But one day, a glimmer of hope broke through the gloom,
A flicker of light dispelling the impending doom.
A voice whispered softly, "Turn your escape into an escapade,
Embrace the rain delay, let not your progress fade."

For dreams, like flowers, require time and care,
A process unfolding, step by step, with flair.
The future remains uncertain, like an unwritten tome,
But even in the toughest concrete, flowers find a home.

So when life's heat intensifies, like a sizzling soufflé,
Let ambition guide you, transforming your world's array.
Embrace the journey, let your dreams bloom and sway,
For ambition turns your world into a magnificent bouquet.

Eyes

Eyes, windows to the depths of the soul,
I'm captivated by her gaze, uncontrolled,
A heart dyed blue, an oceanic maze,
Delving into emotions in watery ways.

Navigating currents of her shifting tide,
Decoding the ripples, feelings implied,
Her smile, a knowing grin, mysterious guise,
Diminishing thoughts, making them minimize.

Her voice, a melody that beckons to call,
Endearing names like baby, boo, and all,
It's strange how deeply I'm drawn to this girl,
Her name, unspoken, a secret to unfurl.

She holds secrets within her soulful eyes,
Intriguing and enigmatic, a captivating guise,
Lost in the depths, a longing to explore,
This girl, a enigma, forever I adore.

Inward struggles

I've been in my head, a labyrinth of thoughts,
Where time slips through fingers, in battles fought.
No map to guide me, no compass to steer,
Lost in the tangles of a mind filled with fear.

The minutes dance swiftly, like elusive fireflies,
Yet I'm trapped in the shadows, as time slips by.
With each passing moment, I struggle and strive,
But my thoughts entangle, keeping me captive, alive.

In this realm of chaos, where whispers collide,
I'm entwined with distractions, my focus untied.
ADHD's tempest swirls, a relentless storm,
Pulling me deeper, where clarity is the norm.

But still, I resist, fight against the tide,
To break free from this maze, where I often reside.
For within these walls, there's a spark that ignites,
A flame of resilience, burning through the nights.

I gather my strength, search for a way,
To transcend the barriers, to seize the day.
With patience and persistence, I'll forge a new path,
Unravel the knots, and escape from its wrath.

No longer confined, I'll spread my wings wide,
Embrace the world beyond, where dreams coincide.
For though I'm stuck in my head, I'll find release,
And conquer the challenges, find my inner peace.

So, let the clock tick, let time carry on,
I'll unravel the puzzles, till the doubts are gone.
In this battle with self, I'll learn to be free,
A symphony of triumph, where I'm meant to be.

Found

Enveloping me in your embrace
Securely locked I find solace in your presence
With no escape or avoidance, I am held captive by your gaze
Delving deep into the core of my being
At long last I experience a profound sense of belonging
A tender recognition that allows my soul to be truly seen

Seeking

In realms of thoughts, I'm held captive, you see,
A prisoner of my mind's eternity.
With every dream and fervent aspiration,
I ponder if joy awaits in my narration.

"It's not you, it's me," the words resound,
In solitude's embrace, I'm tightly bound.
A yearning heart seeks happiness anew,
Yet uncertainty shadows what I can pursue.

Amidst life's tapestry, will I find my key?
Unlock the door to a blissful destiny?
I wander, wondering if fate will decree,
A moment's reprieve where my soul can be free.

For dreams may soar on wings of hope's flight,
But reality's grasp may dim their light.
In the realm of possibilities, I yearn to explore,
Discovering solace I've not felt before.

Oh, elusive happiness, my constant desire,
I strive for you, fueled by an inner fire.
Yet the path is obscured, the future unclear,
Leaving me to ponder if your embrace is near.

But still, I persist, with hope as my guide,
Seeking the day when sorrows subside.
Though doubts may plague, I won't let them deter,
For the yearning within me, I will not defer.

So, onward I journey, with doubts in tow,
Amidst the uncertainty, my spirit will grow.
For in this quest for happiness untold,
I'll find my purpose, a story yet to unfold.

Cigarette burns remastered

Cigarettes and friends, so much alike,
Both leave a mark, an addictive strike.

Friends become cigarettes against the skin,
The longer you hold them, darkness creeps in.
Temptation grows, to smoke or see them choke,
Cancer sticks, ignited, a deadly yoke.

Many indulge, finding joy in the haze,
Inhaling warnings, a toxic craze.
Strangers' words are mere sticks and stones,
But with friends, pain accumulates, silently groans.

Deep into the lungs, the heart, the skin,
Friends can harm like cigarettes, buried within.
We smoke our friends, blinded by the wrong,
Forgetting the regret that will come along.

Lungs collapse, hearts fill up with despair,
Friends and cigarettes, both burdens to bear.
Quit cold turkey, but relapses sting,
Anything to escape the toxic clinging.

Friends or cigarettes, a choice to savor,
Both leave a bitter taste, an uncertain flavor.
In this dark dance, where toxicity thrives,
Choose wisely, for your soul to survive.

Embarking life's journey

In the realm of endless possibilities, I stand,
Yearning for a life of purpose, hand in hand,
No longer content with mere distractions,
I seek a path that ignites my passions.

I cast aside doubts, fears, and hesitation,
Determined to turn dreams into realization,
No jest or jesters in this sacred quest,
I set sail on this voyage, giving it my best.

With unwavering resolve, I take the lead,
A captain of my destiny, fueled by a fiery creed,
Aboard this vessel, I embrace the unknown,
Charting a course to a destiny yet unshown.

Through turbulent tides and stormy seas,
I navigate with courage, the wind as my keys,
The sails unfurled, catching hope's sweet gale,
As I steer towards horizons where dreams prevail.

In the voyage of life, I find my devotion,
In the pursuit of purpose, a newfound potion,
I leave behind the shores of complacency,
Embracing a future filled with audacity.

So, let the waves crash and the currents sway,
I'm determined to make it through, come what may,
For within me burns a passion, fierce and true,
A catalyst for change, a force that will breakthrough.

No more wandering lost, seeking a new start,
I've found my calling, deep within my heart,
With every beat, it whispers a hopeful plea,
"Embrace this journey, and set yourself free."

So, onward I sail, a soul reborn,
With dreams as my compass, fears torn,
For I've chosen to live, to take control,
To write a story of triumph, forever unscroll.
