The more you read
The less you believe.
Today's reader
Is tomorrow's leader.
Free your mind
And repeat after me
I don't mind
Read and compare
No need to stare.
Free your mind
And you will find
An answer to the unanswerable
An answer to the unquestionable.
You were born to know
And not to follow.
Life is brief
Knowledge is the best belief.

They said,
"The most beautiful art is
looking into someone's eyes
when they talk about the
things they love.
"
And I said,
"Or looking at someone you love.
Or maybe, just maybe,
by looking at the mirror
is the most beautiful art
anyone should appreciate."
Appreciation post for myself; for you and for everyone as well. You deserve more than the world has to offer.
I died
Few days after my birth.
Breath is not life.
A woman is not always a wife.
I died
When I lost hope
Drink nothing but water and soup.
Time is my arch enemy.
It was one day
When time buried my laughter.
It was one day
When time misused my kindness.
It was one day
When I lost my consciousness.
Life indeed is nothing but
It was one day.
A history
That doesn't push
You forward
Will **** you one day.
I hid my heart
Inside your heart.
Cause my heart
Will never  beat again
Away from your heart.
You are my life
And not only my wife.

Sophia
She was a thrifted sweater and denim and jersey knit sheets
Pizza breath and red wine and toothpaste
Alabaster skin and knotted hair and freckled shoulders
A tangible dream and my favorite good morning
She agreed to let me kiss her and I agreed to let her slip my shirt over my head before she became
Blood and tears
"I trusted you" and "I’m sorry"
Midnight poems and a drunk "I need you"
I’m afraid I loved you like the way I wrote
