A promise.

I promise you.

I PROMISE.


I shall see you again.

Not in “another life”.

Not in a non-sensical way.

We shall meet and embrace,
and hug slightly too hard -
so that when we depart
there is still that feeling of closeness,
...

Tough Start

Kaylin Clark has a lot to prove in professional basketball.
Cut down on the turnovers.
How about one world .. I doubt it.
People are too stubborn.
I would rather be a virgin than a victim.
You really have to have something to say.
Talent...

The dancing peacock.

The dancing peacock.

I gazed and gazed and thought
If the rainbow was on the ground,
dancing and displaying its colours
when i found a peacock shaking its feathers.

The sunlights refleting on the feathers
and made it more glossy.
Had I...

The past fades are love will never change.

The past fades, are love won't change.

I don't really know you; you were just another friend. But I did get to know you, and I ask my heart why. All the memories make me cry. I will forget my first love and give you a try. I'm in love with you,...

Dangers

Dangers like strangers abound,
Some are like no sound.
Only God knows what’s all around.

By the devil’s aspect
Sin can infect,
I should inspect.

Oh, Jesus the Son
If I sin, don’t I have a conscience,
Pulling me down like a ton?

I hope...

Worlds come and go

And I am not responsible

It's not my fault we're dying

It's not my fault I can't save them

Please God give us hope

I see no way out

If you are there, give us a way...

Minor Whiners

Once minor whiners given time,
Climbing up a vine.
Slowly getting,
Attention doing this.
Few who listen to their nonsense,
Can not resist.

Those minor whiners,
Mentally unfit.
Are soon the ones endorsed,
As leaders people pick.
To sit...

My life is a poem

life is a poem,
seeing things through similes,
juxtaposition, and
metaphors.
They say that "comparison is the thief of joy, but what if it's a lens at which to look at life,
in order to truly understand It.
what if it gives depth to the...

Tatoos vs Me, not you...

It is easy to get another one too I hope you'd plus it again, tattoo said.
Miss me without an ink that spells suicide on my beautiful skin decorated enough,
I'd laugh at you louder; I said not even you.
Tattoo a thing close to you that you should...

The first snowflake of Christmas Eve.

My first snowflake. 

As the first snowflakes falls, I see an endless beauty of white. I can see the magic skating on the frozen lake or sticking out my tongue to catch the falling flake. The forest floor is frozen, and it's freezing. The trees...

The Text

Click, a button lives and dies,
Clack, another life given and taken
click-clack, thousands of times,
Thousands of buttons are pressed,
Thousands just died,
a moment only of life,
Identical buttons combined differently,
Maybe pressed with less...

Confused

Am I getting confused
Trying to make sense

The avenue narrows
Now there's a fence


Puzzle scattered
At the pieces I stare

The order illusive

My brain isn't there

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Drowsy now
