Finding someone who you truly love is finding the hidden parts of your own entity while they help you extract it from the depths of your own self-doubt. The thought of wonders of another soul that matched your beating hearts’ pulses seemed so far-fetched that you reminded yourself every chance you got that love was for other people, and that you would never find it. That you were beyond the care of a single person in this world. Because you believed that the real grandiose being that is yourself was too dull and too different for love to ever find it’s way into your narrow path of self-loathing. People would tell you all the ti

There once was a warrior, so sweet, so kind She knew what she wanted, and she got it on her own. A man she had found, so faithful and true But she had another calling To leave her lover behind. So valiant, so brave, she left her whole world behind her, saying, "I shall be back in a year, no more! I promise!" She went to the land of the poor, the sick, the helpless She saved lives by the thousands. There were so many thanking her, their souls all in debt But she was so humble to not take the fame. A year passed, having done so much, but she couldn't break free. She said to her fiance, still waiting for her at home, "Boy, how I love you and mi

    As the snow drifted down unto the warm and toasty house, the gleeful family inside chatting and laughed away to the stories told of Christmases before. The tree was decorated with tinsel and lights, stockings were hung above the fireplace, and presents were passed around with smiles galore.     But there was a sound, a very small sound that not a one did muster. Nobody, in fact, but a mouse in a hat, who came out of its hole to see all the luster.     Poor Mommy yelled loud, and climbed on a chair because of such a fright. Daddy went after the scared little mouse, but little Timmy was saddened because of this sight.     He said, &ldquo

    I pulled at my cord. It was my life support, only it was inserted in the back of my neck. It was attached to a police car’s engine, and done without my permission. I really hope my body hasn't grown attached to it yet, I say, knowing full well I was doomed. The pain was too much for me to try to unhinge the wires from my neck, so I started grappling for the other end, underneath the steering wheel. With a good grip on the cord, I pulled with all my might.           The cops outside the car were screaming at me to stop fiddling with the wires. As if they really cared what I did with my life now, I thought. Seconds ago they were pla

The leaves floating on the tail of the wind The wind trying to catch up to the setting sun The sun forever illuminating the moon The moon casting shadows on the forest floor The forest floor sprouting with tree saplings The tree saplings grow and feed the newborn animals The newborn animals play with the leaves That float on the tail of the wind, That catches the setting sun That illuminates the moon That shadows the forest floor That holds the start of life in spring That bear fruit when they grow To feed the baby animals That play with the leaves And kick them into the air To grab hold of the wind again.

This tiny pebble below my feet Doesn’t know its worth And in time It will be… Stomped on, chipped, charred, Broken and terribly scarred Used as a stepping stone To help others find their way home Taken from its shore, Then kept in someone’s drawer Forgotten for years, but found Its way back into the ground Harvested, refined, and sold When all along it was a fine piece of gold.

Rewind it, Play it. Now watch carefully. Turn up the noise, Let’s dance to it. Technology rules So let’s leave mankind To rot in its pit And smile at a screen. Get up. Walk forward. Don’t trip on that wire, Lest you end up dead. We’ll pull you down Then watch you float Hand me that plastic My friend’s a mope. The keys… here. I don’t need them God only wanted me to be free But unbreakable doors stand in my way, So let’s climb the posts Make it to the sun. Crash Burn Now it’s their turn. Whisper, softly Now scream it to me Bow to my knees Then watch me bleed. I’ll fall when I want
