It’s willful lure

Desirous lies

Perfection surrounds my eyes 

Endless rivers churn 

Destined to meet at one home

Of beauty so delicate

Think, a little

Everyone will change

Some meet demise

Lest you can cook

With what's before your eyes

A little black book

My secrets are in a little black book. They're my ambitions in life, the usual sum: graduate, college, Ph.D. Except I fear that no one will understand me. Secrets are kept so people can't peek into the mind and it's inner workings. My secrets are hidden from cowardice that others won't understand why I want to accomplish. It's not because I can't or that I'm too shy. I know that people don't think the same but these secrets are my thoughts, loves, and shames. Rather I keep secrets between myself, a litte black book, and no one else. Because she always remembers what I say, holding fast to all my scribbles. That is why I trust her my secrets, my words, and my ambitions.

Best(fake)friends

Laying fazed engulfed by "friends".

With whom I'd stay till the very end.

Forever watching each others backs.

Cursed to smile and crack a laugh.

It’s okay :)

Let's face the facts.

You messed up.

Yesterday, last week, last month. 

It's doesn't matter.

But what matters is you know you messed up.

And you want to change that!

Who's better than you now!

So I'm here to tell you.

It's okay.

Whatever happened.

It's okay. 

It's your choice to change, to be the better human, the bigger person.

And if your still reading then it means you want to and you can!

Get up and do what you need to do, because I know you can.

Wandering thoughts

Surrounded by a symphony

Of sounds all reminding me

"Life has only one beauty"

Prescriptions constantly shoved  

Never concerning all but none

Soulless boxes which demons roam 

Every stating the unknown

Telling all who to be 

Placing glasses upon me

Only if I could see.

Challenge

Something yet..

The simplest things are always the hardest to explain. Words are a bearer of the throne of life. They however aren't the only. A convenience for what expressions can't express.

Crashed

A breath of June filled our lungs 

In a congregation of glass, blood,&men

Asphalt beneath our bound hands

Paralyzed with back to ground

Dead, going to a funeral.

My name is...

A shot to the heart.

Broken inside,

Never will I return

Rather, I'd die.

To stand up myself, 

To fend for life,

Never could I do 

Trouble filled is strife. 

Why even try!

Can't I cry!

Could there even be compromise?

Cowering in fear

Let me shed these tears. 

Forever broke.

In strength, 

heart, 

and mind,

A joke.

You're an insect in love. With whom? Well, I'll let you decide.

Too Entangled, too enchanted, 

To ever leave this abode,

How could I leave this abode!

For lust will destroy me,

love will break me, 

fear will engulf me,

If I ever leave this wonderful home,

Night and day threw their worst but my love,

   my abode,

        my tree,

He has protected me!

How could I ever leave this place,

Why ever leave this place,

Enchanted, entangled.
