You talk and I see your inside
You act and I see your scars
You react and I see your sickness
You hide and I see your fears
You hurt them and I see your heart
You hate and I see your love
You love and I see your selfishness
You grow up and I see your blidness

Why can’t you help me like a normal human being?
Why are you afraid from giving just a little from what you have?
It’s supposed to be easy and simple. We all say that life is hard so why don’t we all stick together? Why you wanna have it all when someone else is in need?
Is it fear from not having enough? Or is it the society that punishes our souls?

Hey kid – You don’t know who you really are nor what’s happened to you.
You don’t remember when your dad called you dumb nor when you were hungry and your mum didn’t cook dinner.
But you can change it. You can change who you are. All it takes is one person, one situation, one moment to change your life forever. It can change your perspective and decorate your mind.
One **** moment that forces you to re-evaluate all your beliefs. You only have to decide if you want to live this way.

Son, raise your hands with me
Son, feel the beat with me
Son, dance with me
Your mama is looking for a taste of real life

It will follow you and stalk you. It will control you and sleep with you. It will surround you and be everywhere. So just lay down and stop trying so hard to never let it show

That feelling. I want it all and I want more.
All night, all day and every way.
Slowly, softly until perfume is made
Cristine Oct 2018
You were good to everyone else but never towards yourself. Maybe you thought you weren't good enough. Maybe you thought that all you can feel is pain and sadness. Maybe it was your broken memories that kept you up all night.
To every time you thought you didn't have the right to love yourself, I forgive you.

In the garden
a coffee on a rounded table
I smell my mother's food
I hear my dad's steps
I see my sister's new dress
I watch the sunset
The skyline is bright
The city calls out our names
to paint it's streets
I feel
I love

I am on a different tree
Watching you being free
Counting the stars
Hoping to heal my scars

Give me a minute so I can play my favorite song.
A minute to stop and listen to my heart.
A minute to feel something new.
Give me a minute so I can finish the last broken piece of the puzle and see reality as it is.
A reality that is far away from where I belong.
A reality that doesn't nourish my beliefs nor my soul.
Now

Now
Hey kid, don't jump
Not yet
Look up
Look around you
Just look at the world
Behold the morning glory
The meanest flower, the ragweed, the soft sky
Juts look for one ******* second.
And start living

Maybe it wasn't you.
Maybe it was your broken toy or your broken dream.
Why ? Why didn't you scream ?
Where was your unfaithful dream ?

You are a prisoner of your own mind, and you can’t even notice it. Liking, commenting, scrolling, stalking, worrying instead of talking, connecting, facing, and expressing.
Posting the perfect picture of your perfect life.
Your perfect trip, your perfect outfit.
Hiding behind your perfect smile your true self so deep inside your body that you can’t even find it for yourself.

I waited in that room.
I strained my eyes peering into the gloom.
I glimpsed a figure standing into the shades.
Hoping to be saved

The music was playing - softly
Standing on the balcony waiting for the fresh almond croissant
People are walking and riding their bikes in the old streets of Paris
A coffee shop and two old chairs outisde waiting for a reunion
I can hear her singing the lyrics and feeling the breeze
High
This moment was precious

We don't have to be doctors
We don't have to be lawyers
And we don't have to be farmers
We can just be

— The End —
