And when the time comes my tears won't be falling like rain for it will be warm tea and fresh honey streaming down my cheeks.
I hope one day I will bathe in sunflowers and new love - I'm tired of the dead leaves that burden my body, they soak in like fresh coconut on my skin.
I sit underwater where time stops for a second, and I am at peace. I hope one day I can run into rushing waterfalls without begging for that moment of altered reality. I hope one day I bathe in roses instead of my sorrows.
What do you hope for?
i wonder, at what age
you became out of my reach;
i wonder, if i even
tried reaching for you

i know that history leaves its mark on everyone
(but not many have been hurt by the tracks
left behind in the dirt
like you have)

you can sit there for days, weeks, months
while we contemplate your fate,
tossing the choices in our hands
like dice

you hear the word expendable
mumbled in countless conversations
and wonder, at what age
you became in our reach

you think of the family you left behind
and hope they will find their way to tennessee
to a better life that is  
quiet. peaceful.

will they miss your selflessness;
your keen, incisive way with words;
the bumps and hills of your rough skin;
the smell of your perfume?

i miss your evergreen smile;
your poetry;
your skin against mine;
the wonder in your eyes

Don't worry
All your troubles
it's all for the best
It's a simple test for you
and at the end you'll get a gift
So be calm
So be calm
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine

You threw the girl
car broke down
A house burned down
Dont worry
You have your life
And this is simple test,
but in the end you'll get a gift
So be calm
So be calm
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine

Back when I was nine
When I don't know what are beyond the line
Where everything was "just" a touch
Even when she did it at night in couch

When I turned twelve
They said dress according to yourselves
I wear a skirt that I feel
Every eyes are wanting me to peel

I remember a horrible day of fifteen
I wear shirt and pants of green
A cold sweat flush
A strange man grab my ***

I thought eighteen will be fine
Maliciousness will decline
Until someone asked
Join them in bed, I feel aghast

Now I'm twenty-one
Fear lived, doesn't gone
Every looked has a meaning
A memoir of harassing
Many people think that ****** harassment is just putting your d*ck on someone else but that's not it. ****** harassment is happening every day, everywhere. When someone's looking and talking to you in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable. Touching you in parts that makes you uneased. ****** harassment happens not only with girls but also with boys and our friends in LGBTQ Community are experiencing ****** harassment. If you are a victim of ****** harassment, don't hesitate to speak because many people are out there to help you. :)

The poet lives two lives.
One on the outside,
And one in their mind.

When you look in their eyes
You could see an abyss.

If you looked long enough
You could sink into it.

But most people don’t see it.

Take the time to read the words, though,
And you would know for sure.

The poet lives in two different worlds.
A little escape from the madness.
Or maybe, into.

My name will be embossed
In every letters you stroke
I will always be remembered
In this room of four corner
As I stepped outside
Hear a round of applause
A girl walking through her dream
With a heart full of fear and scream
But she see future in uncertainty
World, get ready with me.
I finally got my first job and I'm still anxious about it. The HR asked me if I'm ready for my first job and I got dizzy about it. But hey, I'm ready now, so get ready with me!! :)
P.S.It is sad to know that I will not be active to the community for a while. I need to focus tho but, I love you all.

Some in our Hearts.
Some in our Eyes
Some in our Dreams.  
Some in Cages
Some in Pages.
Some in Frames
And Some in Bodies .....

There is always a reason to smile
Just step back for a while
Close eyes, breathe deep
No worries to keep

Breathe in, think.
The baby in the neighbor that wink
Breathe out, laugh
Remember a big smile of giraffe

Don't hesitate to grin
Play your favorite song, and sing
It's okay to make face
Give everyone a warm embrace

And when you walk in the aisle
Share to everyone your smile
Be their source of happiness
When everything gets so mess
Apparently, I started to my first job, and working gives you different emotions every day that sometimes to much to handle for you. But I realized, whatever situation you are caught up, there is always a reason smile, even the smallest things can be a reason to smile and of course, you, yourself must also be a source of happiness. :)
Anyways, I feel that I am late. AGAIN

CRY
Tonight, let me cry
With no particular reasons why
Maybe I'm mad
Maybe I'm sad
Maybe I'm happy
Maybe I'm just a nobody
Let me show my grudge
Without being judged
Let me fall and breakdown
No "Little Cry Baby" as a crown
But, big girls don't cry tho
That's what people know
I'm just gonna keep this feeling tonight
Hoping everything will be alright
Apparently, I really wanted to cry right now and I doe really have this reason why. All I want is to let these tears fall. Wierd right?

Maybe, she's just tired
Maybe, she's just sad
Maybe, she's just too weak to handle the pressure
But,
She's tired
She's sad
She's too weak to handle the pressure
And when she closed her eyes
She see herself in water
An anchor on her ankle
Making her drown
To her tiredness
To her sadness
To her weakness
And maybe,
Maybe she's better to be drown anyway.
I'm back with my anxiety..
