Sometimes you open yourself up to a person because you feel and believe that they're different and maybe this time they won't break your heart and that your love will be requitted. So you go out on a limb and open up so much of yourself to this person. Things that you're afraid to tell others about because of fear of being judged or rejected. But there's just something about this person that allows you to tell them everything. You become so comfortable in the presence of that person that you openly admit your flaws, you don't hide it. You just completely lose yourself in love and in the thought and concept of being loved, of being in a relationship and of being with someone that you can be yourself with. The idea of that person just completely excites you and everything about them makes you happy. Seeing them and hearing their voice just helps you in an inexplicable manner and being with them is an emotion of complete comfortability on its  own. You learn to love this person and you accept their flaws and differences. You accept how they might not necessarily love eating McDonalds as much as you do or they are crazy about sci-fi movies where you can't even get yourself past watching a chick flick. But that's just it, you don't mind. You don't mind because love is about sacrifices. Its about sacrificing your weekly episode of The Vampire Diaries to watch the most recent sports updates. Because you'd rather lose the argument than to lose the person. You'd sacrifice a part of your daily routine all for love. The worst part is that nothing is guaranteed. You're not guaranteed how long you will be in a relationship with this person. You're not guaranteed complete happiness and you're not guaranteed that things are going to be perfect. You just have to trust this person and have faith. Believe the best and hope that everything will work out for the. Best. Believe that even if you break up with this person, that you're going to be ok. Everything is going to be ok, and that new beginnings are perfectly acceptable. Believe that you're going to overcome heartbreak of any kind. You just have to believe that someone out there is looking for someone like you. What others see Wrong in you just might be the exact thing that will make someone else fall in love with you. And you need to be realistic. Not all relationships last forever. Some relationships are there for lessons and experiences. So that very person that you completely open yourself up to, can break your heart. It could be during or even after the relationship. But its all part of life I guess. You'll never know how to love someone wholeheartedly if you haven't been hurt before. You just have to turn your heartbreak in to something positive, make the most out of your situation. See the light in the darkness. But learn to deal with things too. Find closure in what happened to you and don't leave a relationship with unfinished business. Because unfinished business will have to be finished sooner or later, and I think sooner is better. Allow yourself time to heal too. Opening yourself up to someone that much can hurt you a lot, and everything you had with that person will be completely lost in an instant. And you're gonna need to come to terms with that. Remember that what's meant to be , will be. Love, is a complicated thing, and you're never quite sure how things could possibly turn out to be. You're just gonna go out on a limb each time hoping for the best and patiently waiting for your happily ever after with a special person.

My prepared speech for school- Love.

SONNET TRIBUTE: JAN-CARLO FALCESO
#Birdbox                 by Amoy I live on your social acceptance of me You keep my face buried, my eyes blind and my mind occupied You draw me in, I loose myself, trying to find myself I can't hear the birds chirp, I can't see the sunrise You are always here but yet I'm afraid and I’m alone The happiest people living their "best lives" surrounds me Telling me to see, telling me I need to be apart of it Don't you want to be like me? Live feeds, Status updates Selfies, likes Love me, don't scroll without a comment Live streams, fake news, fake friends Program-me, I need your feeds It's not just a movie, it's real life get a clue

#BirdBox
**You're a sight for sore eyes Been blinded by the light Too many times** Waves upon waves Of color changing iconic notions Fueled up emotions and sad faces Shadows and shapes shining bright At the height of the modern age **A different way to accentuate the names we put inside our minds Digital rhymes change the journey we travel** When it unravels, we share, post and tag A lag and we're lost in the dim lights of what we do next Shifting through pages of endless faces, words and updates **Times alienate the importance of touch Yet the ignorance has a much higher impact Than the influence of how to overreact** Observe this society.... Is this how our lives were meant to be, Staring at phones and computer screens? **** this technology**, for taking you away from me Taking moms from children and dads from jobs Making every other relationship lose trust and feel wrong **** this technology for what it does to me** What it does to you, to society. **** this technology, but don't you dare try to take my phone from me.**

Nursery time A for Apple, B for Ball, C for Cat We all have learned  this rhyme Best to be inside the System.    Our grand father did it Father, after following Taught us, the same Best to be inside the System    Now, We all realize, There are thousands of words, Beside Apple, Ball and Cat Started from, The same old Nursery A, B, C      When fruits seller’s child Remembers A, B Apple comes with responsibility Per kg. Rs. 250 Banana comes with responsibility Per Count Rs. 10        I might be wrong, I asked him, for the latest updates    With professional voice, He replied, “Price changes with supply and demand.”      What they don’t teach in the school What matters in the real world.

One need only look to the four winds to find four frowns; eight sad eyes straining to see through stained glass tears. The man said "I die daily" but he didn't have a constant stream of status updates to maintain. I define myself daily. Being special has thus far not protected me from the unbearable weight of today. All of the analog cigarettes and old fashioned daydreams in the world cannot save me now. If I'm not seen am I really here? Heavy hearts and weary heads reside respectively in the chests and on the necks of everyone I encounter. The gas station attendant feels empty and is bereft of a sense of irony. The world ends not with bang OR whimper, but with a deep and baleful sigh... with a deep and baleful sigh... with a deep and baleful...

Plague of Sadness
Nearly home. The bed And the slippers grow ever closer. A memory of things that give comfort seem palatial, Euphoric in the mind's eye, Though I do seem to ponder of its romanticized reality Memories always seem so warm. In reality, The things that hold others close are affirming. Love, Shared events Symbiotic empathy, But given the current state... The boring, The mundane, The trivial and the tedious that makes the most of a lifetime Are omitted from the mind. But why not have a memory full of nothing but the nothingness of life? The train rides? Waiting for the toaster to splay its insides So I can feast on its wonderful toasty goodness? Talking to the tenant who does not understand That a bouncing leg And constant time updates are signposts to **** off? Empty the files of my brain And fill it with the moments of nothing. These moments and these alone Are your true self. if you are a good person Is not determined by How many charities earn your pay Or how many items stored, What you are is chosen by the lonely, The solitary, The Tigress. Only when you accept that person, You are happy And free. But don't hold your breath.

o three hundred (or stalking 101)
I uncrossed my legs and leaned forward, my face becoming warmer from the heat of the bonfire. All of our friends were around us, talking and laughing voices lifting up into the sky with the bonfire smoke. I leaned back in my chair and crossed my legs, eyes still on the fire. I couldn’t look up, because I knew what I would see. You on your phone, either looking for the updates from the game or texting that new girl you’ve tried to keep secret (you can’t lie to a liar, honey). So I didn’t look up. I stared at the flames dancing along the logs, at the smoke lifting up, flirting with the sky. I didn’t look up. I couldn’t look up. I — looked up. And found your brown eyes there to catch my blue ones, and found I could not catch my breath.

The Bonfire Summer
Aging is confusing How old would you be if you didn't know how old you are Microwave ovens Kitchen range timers Updates too Timers all around ticking down ticking down our time You might think of this as you make your rounds Sunrises Sunsets Good morning Goodnight 5 minutes to go Forty seconds I know Ding goes the timer Another day is done I guess in the end it's five four three two one.

Timers ticking down
It's getting me worried It loses all glory Confusion and fears Is there, what appears Another strange moment The energy's missing Its colour is new A new day processing As if I changed My program in brains As if the software Needed some updates Relaxed but tense The opposites rule Too less defense Too much to do The energy's a useful tool I need to get from somewhere It should appear inside of me Not the confusion, that I see I kinda lost something The passing days I tried to evaluate But it's a mess I wanted it perfect I wanted it right But now life's teaching me It's alright I gotta accept it I gotta move on I gotta just stop Comparing at all Too much to question there I know, I don't know where The best solution's hiding But I will fight, Ill find it This is already What I do right now I give myself energy I give myself power I encourage myself To go on Keep on moving On fighting Stop crying Amusing how dramatic it sounds My creativity now is unbundling I will heal the confusion I will break the illusion I will always keep going And myself, it is growing

Self encouragement
I'm a popular monster I make you feel insane Take all these dark thoughts and place them in your brain Play them on repeat until fully ingrained Already a part of you Soon you will have no say Try not to hurt anyone so you push them away Cry about it later call and beg them all to stay Never leave your house then go online and complain Toxic validation from those who only know your name You're a popular monster They all think you're insane They laugh at all your updates They think it's all a game Projecting sense of humor when you're really filled with rage Numb yourself by scrolling you just want to feel okay Say something real, they ignore it your honesty goes to waste So you return to performing This platform is your stage I'm a popular monster I'll keep posting from your grave

Girl, put down the pocket knife fist and pick up that pen of yours. stop... They aren't worth the status updates or the 140 character #hashtag They are worth books. Trilogy novels of witty 'should have' banter and Good wins over Evil plot themes. Rake in the millions. Then put down the skinny jeans and wear the Tutu. stop... They aren't worth the clone bulimic fashion trends. They are worth ballets. Extravagant classical shows where millions come to see. Each one hanging on you like fish hooks. Because you got that audience hook, line, and sinker. Then, go home. stop... They aren't worth the boastful air you inhale. Exhale humility and stories about best sellers and the view from a ballet hall in Germany. You are worth it. You are worth the pens, and tutus, and a home.

Let me post a selfie how's my hair makeup angle filter how do I look did I get likes yet? Let me post a status one about how much I love my besties another on how I learned a new lesson now here's a photo of my breakfast I have to comment like poke post new updates every day becuase that's just what you do nowadays, that's just how it goes because we're all so afraid if we don't keep posting if we don't get those likes and invites and pokes and fill up our messages and notifications, that we're going to be forgotten. That if we don't solidify our presence on social media then we don't have a presence at all. We spend so much time trying to make other people think we exist, that we never end up existing at all, not really. We don't need all these people and confirmations to tell us we exist. we already do. If only it weren't so easy to forget that.

if you ran away itd have to be digital and thats pathetic. its just downright sad you have to eat bites of gigabytes to survive because you cant swallow meat, that to live unfettered youd have to string copper wires through your veins, but youve never been anything but capital p Pathetic so you think you can stand that idea. after all, it was the unfeeling internet anonymous who taught you to breathe deeply when you were anxious, and how the messy act of human reproduction worked (imperfect and fleshy, you thought). they taught you words your living tongue refuses to pronounce. between chat programs and status updates you formed multimedia connections, held fast by streams of text and data, and even now they seem more real than anything reality has presented you. in an era far away with a hint of nostalgia you freely immerse yourself in childhood where your friends homes are only a click away. you feed them dinner with a sense of purpose. Technology has made it possible

singularity watching for dummies
It's like I haven't seen you in so long But even that's a lie. I've seen your past in pictures and I've see your present In Facebook updates. Seen your new happy so close to your old sad. And even when I tear myself from the screen, there still remains the imprint of your face burned into the inside of my eyelids, so that Everytime I want to look at NOTHING, I see you. Everytime I rub my eyes, or wash my face, I'm haunted by your look. When I try to sleep, I see you staring back. It's like Everytime I sneeze, my body wills me into catching a glimpse of you. And even when I beat myself into dead slumber, you burrow through my optic stems, claw into my cortex, and sink your teeth into my very dreams.   I wake up, too shaken to scream, too weak for words, and still, somehow, I manage to spell your name on my back and on my sheets, in trickling droplets of sweat.   You linger in my mind like nuclear fallout. I tell myself, Maybe one day I'll brave Old Chernobyl. I'll pass by the radioactive signs, the wise warnings, without fear or worry. I'll use my coward's camera to capture preserved pockets of the past, looking, helplessly, for the secret to having loved you, and maybe even the secret to forgetting you. But even that's a lie.

he was forty but lied about his age, told everyone he looked young for his age, and still shopped at hot topic he is in late forties now, still thinks he looks young, and still shops at hot topic he buys the same stuff that people were buying in the 80's before hot topic existed he describes himself as having such a brilliant mind that he is easily bored with people. he is an intj, so this means that he knows everything. he is very intelligent according to the re-occuring craigslist misc. romance ads he has been posting for the last decade. when he gets inspired, he updates his fetlife profile (or his ok cupid profile) i met him when i was too alone, but not numb enough yet he kept on telling me that depressed people were really just narcissists who couldn't stop thinking about themselves i couldn't tolerate him, but had nothing else to do, so i had to be drunk and ****** at all times in his presence and i don't drink very often prior to that i was only a weekend stoner, but that changed real quick he made himself too comfortable and bought me a bob dobbs book for my birthday because he thought and still thinks bob dobbs is hilarious he kept on using my bathroom for long periods of time and bringing the bob dobbs book in with him every time i told him he could keep the bob dobbs book but he said, "no, it's more the kind of book that i want to read when i come over and use your bathroom" so i swallowed the throw up in my mouth, asked him to leave, threw the book away, and never had anything to do with him after that. shortly thereafter, he started diagnosing me and every other woman who is not attracted to him as having borderline personality disorder via craigslist missed connections and/or his fetlife profile (which i still read for laughs). then he broke into my apartment through the back door the night before he got married to a woman who needed a green card. i'm not sure why he did that, i'll never know. he broke the door, so it wouldn't shut properly anymore and i smashed my fingers in it once while trying to shut it. my fingernails fell off. and this is why i have been celibate for the last 7 and half years.

he was forty but lied about his age, told everyone he looked young for his age, and still shopped at hot topic he is in late forties now, still thinks he looks young, and still shops at hot topic he buys the same stuff that people were buying in the 80's before hot topic existed he describes himself as having such a brilliant mind that he is easily bored with people. he is an intj, so this means that he knows everything. he is very intelligent according to the re-occuring craigslist misc. romance ads he has been posting for the last decade. when he gets inspired, he updates his fetlife profile (or his ok cupid profile) i met him when i was too alone, but not numb enough yet he kept on telling me that depressed people were really just narcissists who couldn't stop thinking about themselves i couldn't tolerate him, but had nothing else to do, so i had to be drunk and ****** at all times in his presence and i don't drink very often prior to that i was only a weekend stoner, but that changed real quick he made himself too comfortable and bought me a bob dobbs book for my birthday because he thought and still thinks bob dobbs is hilarious he kept on using my bathroom for long periods of time and bringing the bob dobbs book in with him every time i told him he could keep the bob dobbs book but he said, "no, it's more the kind of book that i want to read when i come over and use your bathroom" so i swallowed the throw up in my mouth, asked him to leave, threw the book away, and never had anything to do with him after that. shortly thereafter, he started diagnosing me and every other woman who is not attracted to him as having borderline personality disorder via craigslist missed connections and/or his fetlife profile (which i still read for laughs). then he broke into my apartment through the back door the night before he got married to a woman who needed a green card. i'm not sure why he did that, i'll never know. he broke the door, so it wouldn't shut properly anymore and i smashed my fingers in it once while trying to shut it. my fingernails fell off. and this is why i have been celibate for the last 7 and half years.

Into the virtual world I get ****** Staring into the pseudo-reality Liking stuff, Commenting words Whether it makes sense to others? I often wonder Into the virtual world I get drawn The bunds of rationality Do not seem to hold on Staring at happy faces Thinking on updates Do I seem to remember? What around me is at stake? Calling for immediate attention? Into the virtual world I often loose Some vital perspective Floating into thoughtful nothingness Until I stumble On the platform of hard earth And when I rub my eyes I see the dire need to resolve What is real and unreal!

CONFLICT
We live in a world of talkers, Of shouters, of debaters, of know it alls. Listening is a long extinct creature, Unheard of by a species that has devolved to simply wait their turn to talk. Conversations no longer flow like rivers, Instead they are puddles: Started, then abandoned to become bone dry. We live in a world of talkers, All raising their volume to be heard, Shouting that their opinions are fact. No being is exempt from the epidemic, The infectious itch to crank the volume dial right And scream that the other talkers are wrong. We live in a world of talkers, Of screamers, of bigots, of smart alecs In a universe not made for this noise. The voices get louder, the status updates get longer, the protests get deadlier. We live in a world of talkers And soon we will live in a world of mutes.
