“Immigrant” has somehow become a bad word.
When to me immigrants are the people who fight to be heard.
They are the people who are ignored,
The people who work hard without reward.
They’re not back until after dusk and leave the house before dawn,
They’re not just the people who mow your lawn.

People will discriminate,
But I’m proud of from where I originate.
With rich culture that in which the word “ashame” does not exist.
In this so called “country of the free” we will resist.
We will join with others to make our bruises known
For we won’t stay quiet while being disowned

The day I met you
That was the day I regret most
5 years of my life waiting on you like tables
You told me you loved me
And for a moment I thought it was true
But that was nothing more than empty promises and a game to you

I gave you a chance
And you took me for granted
You made me feel worthless
When I was the most lost
I was a mess
And you only kicked me back down
I let you win cause I thought that was right

I guess the truth hurts
But what you did was much worse
You lefts cuts on my heart like the ones on my wrists
But the place you hit most you on my lips

The only thing keeping me up at night is the thought of us
And the day I met you
Because if I could go back
I would most definitely walk away from you

im constantly caught up in the past,
in the what-ifs,
in the what-could-have-beens.

the future scares me,
so i retreat to nostalgia.
my favorite friend.

she makes my heart so sad,
yet so full of joy.

They say opposites attract,
I disagree
They say there’s tons of fish in the sea
but i’ve got my eye only on one
A fish with special stripes
identical to mine.
A mind complicated enough
to understand my convolution
A heart abled to be sentimental
But i am forced to
push away my sense of affection,
For i value our friendship more than my own emotions
I hate losing people, i’ve lost many
But none i have begged from leaving
Perhaps you’ll be the first.
They say feelings are what makes up a human
But i guess i would have to ignore mine for you
just to keep you forever.
as a friend.

Sometimes,
Most of the time,
I am convinced
That you have
No idea,
No concept,
No glimmer of comprehension,
Of how much I love you.

But how could you?

No words could ever describe it;
No actions could ever demonstrate it;
No musical notes could ever sound as sweet;
No sunsets could ever appear as beautiful.

Yet, every day,
My mouth will speak;
My body will act;
My throat will sing;
My soul will paint the sky.

And Maybe,
Someday,
You will know.

was five years ago

the 26th day in feb

i wasn't looking for love and I ment what I said

you would come you would go

and id try to forget

but soon you consumed

all the thoughts my head..

we first began talking

and i must confess

i wasn't going to give up

untill you said yes

was only thinking off me

at first when we met

all the others before left me full of regret

4 relationships in 8 years

what you expect

constantly trying

feeling mentally wrecked

but it's all over now

so I look back and reflect

I know your confused

I'm hot and I'm cold

but must put myself first

and remain in control

if im in doubt

then you must be told

because I really cant take,

more mistakes to unfold

but we both took things slow

as we got to know

each other better

we started to grow

there would be so many hights

some unbearable lows

but if we didn't meet

I know just where I'd be

so I want you to know

its my life that I owe..

now i reilise

there must be trust and compromise

and I do apologise

for all the secrets and the lies

all the times iv made you cry

when I look into your eyes

and see your faith in me has died

I mean it when I say....

baby i do apologise

I love you so much darlin for all that you done

you have given me a life

and you have given me my son....

you are an amazing mother

to our perfect little boy

and when we found out you were pregnant

how it filled me up with joy

and il never forget them 9 months
and what you went through when you carried

and I really cannot wait untill that date
that we get married

to love and to cherish untill death do us part

forever and always

you will never leave my heart

Running after ghosts of the past,
whilst stepping on glass shards,
you spend your days chasing the next high,
not knowing that you’re getting caught in the lies.

Like a spider that
meticulously weaves
and endlessly plots,
you take your strides cautiously,
yet still with a hint of mischievous spontaneity.

But the train tracks ahead of you
that are littered with rocks
and the crunch of footsteps behind that mocks even you,
never falters, never ceases.
You pace yourself as though you're running,
but all you're really doing is falling.

You’re drowning in quicksand,
making waves in the pits.
Distressed cries; not knowing where you’d land.
You wait to see if anyone will save you,
not knowing that all you ever needed was yourself.

Do you not see, do you not hear?
That your heart is hurting?

Its asking you to love yourself a little more,
to let your guard down and soar,
to bless yourself with change,
although it may be strange (to you).

This life is an endless journey of self growth,
charted by fate, and
accompanied with love,
but only when you let it happen,
will it make you great again.

I have never understood the concept of
soulmates,
twin flames,
being one half of a whole.

I have never needed somebody in my life
to make me feel whole
because I am absolutely complete
on my own.
