You
In
triumphs and smiles
through
darkness and trials,

yesterday, today, forever

nothing is left behind,
  because ... darling,
wherever
  I am,

   you are always on my mind.

My Dear Poet
My hearts always been in the right place
till it slipped down to my knee
and trapped in my knee caps
now my hearts bending on me

My hearts always been in the right place
now I trip, slipping slow
I pick it up from off my feet
but funnily, stuck in the elbow

My hearts always been in the right place
but now, I really just don’t know
If it’s safer caged in my chest
or bent to which every way I go

I prefer to distance myself whenever I’m in a bad mood because I’ll become the most heartless person you’ll ever meet….!
When people get to know me, they say I just write anything I can’t be heartless but trust me when I say this caz someone who knows me very deeply know that this is freaking true

It's hard
To be the same person
You were yesterday

It's even harder
To be in the same place
In life every day

And then
the night
comes flooding
in, like
a spilled beer.

Fear is a
rabid bat;
fatally
infecting.

Loneliness is
an ice cube
in a bathtub
melt-
ing
slow-
ly.

Love is a
flat toad in
the road of
life.

Hope is a
broken dish,
an empty
pocket,
a shattered dream.

Life is a sparrow
in the cat's mouth,
an abscessed
tooth, with no
antibiotic.
It's a whale
in a frozen
ocean;
an eagle in the
city.

Insanity is
digging for the
courage to
continue
day after
day
after day.

You have no time left
So run
Run till you get
What you want
A note to self

A white lie is still a lie!
behind trivial reasoning
there always hides
an out right lie

Judas betrayed Christ with a kiss.
As a confidant, Brutus stuck
the knife in.
The betrayers are
out there,
thick as buzzards,
waiting to crush your
dreams, like crackers for
their big bowls of bones.
At least Jesus knew what
was coming.
I can't tell my
friends from my enemies.
Someday soon, Ill find
peace of mind, and the
betrayers will feast on
themselves.
They always do.
