Moving On

Closed chapters in different places,
New chapters and different faces,
Seeing humanity in spaces,
Believing reality is in better places,
Sincerity exists in unknown graces,
Formidable heed to meet likened morality,
As passively in calmness...

Call to Home

I've never really felt quite at home
Been looking for a place that feels right
Roamin streets, hoping one calls my name
Around the world and no place to settle
Always feeling like another step will get me there
Lookin in the mirror and I can't...

I saw your post the other day, I wish I wanted to congratulate you.

Almost a year later and I am still walking around with a hole where my heart used to be. It feels like a lifetime and yet it feels like no time has passed at all.

I often...

Maybe One Day

Maybe One Day

“How hard can it be to love yourself?”
She asks herself, the question echoing in the caverns of her heart.
Already knowing the answer, a whisper laced in doubt.

Is it that easy?
Isn't it selfish to put others behind?
Or is it...

Soft Eyes

The obstacles ahead of us
Can seem like tiny rocks
Or boulders that cause us to fuss
And be like stumbling blocks!

The water from a heavy rain
Collecting in a yard,
Will cause some people to complain
Because they dropped their guard.

Outcast

The breeze so calm, a dancing wind,
Dandelions dancing like a dancing fiend,
Silent pauses as the air slows,
Like the eclipse shining with an afterglow,
Chirping sounds, flapping wings, birds of flight,
Gone are they, flying by, way out of...

Still the children cry.

Still, the children cry. 

I can hear the children crying in the middle of the night. They whisper in my ears the things I fear and never want to hear. They're here from the past to ask me to help them at last. Furthermore, They all told me a...

Seeding The Storm

Cotton is picked
before cloth is made
Footings poured
to support the stage

Laws enacted
before crimes take place
Love embracing
— for hearts to break

(Septa Train 30th Street: April,...

A Reflect at Midnight - What did I do wrong?

You graced my life
for a brief moment
like a dew drop landing on a leaf,
before sliding off
into oblivion.

Your residue,
that soft fragment of connection,
remained like a sinew-thin moon outline,
etched across a darkening sky,
until...

Grains of Sand

Poems are little grains of sand
in which I share an insight into my thoughts.
As they fly through the air,
they sparkle in the light
and morph into words on my pen,
creating lyrical ideas
I craft into...

Vitality

We're losing our sanity
when spring sets fiercely in
descendants of humanity
are balancing on the string
when love meets vanity
who'll be the one who wins
spring brings us new vitality
and we'll grow stronger...

To the one I love

To the one I love,
You bring me all that I'm void of
Even though on surface I may seem rough
It's because of my past, growing up was tough
Some may see our fights as a reason to break up
But they don't see when we hug and make up
I can tell...

We know that we are of the truth,
Reassure your heart before God;
As we were taught in our youth,
That we must show honor and laud.

Whenever your heart does condemn,
God is greater than our heart;
For He is knowing your mayhem,
Long before...
