Cast your eyes to the fall sky.
Where golden clouds expand
to celebrate the moment
as leaves make a drifting tapestry.

Cast your eyes
to the winter sky.
Where winds drift with snowflakes
and breath can make you
remember your divinity.

Cast your eyes
to the spring sky.
Where sun anoints flowers to open
and songs echo behind birds wings
as one takes to dance.

Cast your eyes
to the summer sky.
Where rainbows drift and angels carry
wishes for all to be peaceful
as one walks sandwiched between earth and sky.

Yes cast your eyes upward,
to the beauties present.
FOR it is FROM there,
that love can be anchored
and bliss can culminate
WITH BREATH AND INTENTION.

I heard Robin Williams speech about living life and when he said cast your eyes I knew I needed to write. LOL

Im not a poet,
Im just a depressed teenger.
Ill run around the circuit
Until my sweat becomes my armor.

Dont expect much from me,
Im just a socially awkward wreck
The worst card in the deck
Only be remembered as a speck

My ideas are so cliché
That theyve become irrelevant
I always give up midway
And leave myself less confident

But until I find my purpose,
Im just a depressed teenager,
A voiceless individual,
A worthless entity.

It turned green with envy
when it saw that people
didn't need it to be happy.

If I'm losing my mind now
It's because I believed that I can make something broken
Into something perfect

i.


there are days
when my stars
align just for me.


my inner cosmos
telling me to write
about the pain.


my inner cosmos
telling me to expand
the universe within.


ii.


there are days
when my stars
collapse.


i am made of pure
darkness.


i am made of pure
anxiety—


terrified of not seeing
the sun again.


iii.


there are days
when my stars
rise—


like the infinite suns
that they are.


illuminating my being.

Shattered dreams become
glass shards beneath our bare feet
on roads we must walk.
I got sick of things quickly
I always did
The mechanical scooter my parents gave me for my birthday
My obsession over sneakers
My hobby of playing the piano
I was even afraid I could never love cause I would just throw the person away as soon as I got what I wanted
Then you came along
And you proved me wrong
I couldnt get enough of you
Months, still felt the same
And I was relieved
Cause finally,
finally there was something I didnt get sick of
And yes, i didnt get sick of you
But
You
You got sick of me

Ya know
I really hate
The fact that you can tear my world apart
With just a handful of your cruel words
