come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
It’s my first time living my life
I don’t know what tomorrow brings
so if I am rude at times
please understand I also have shortcomings
I try and see the world as good
sharing as best as I might
hoping for better future as anyone would
daring to live life with a fight
so bear with me when I am a grump
I will sleep on it and become a better chum

I do apologize
for my sleep deprived ramblings
I needed an outlet,
but I went tidbit too far
I am grateful for your kind heart
and share your earnest thoughts and tips
Thank you for sharing your time
your presence has been felt,
and I do not treat it lightly.
Should you require a pair of ears
that will open to your own outlet
I promise, mine are booked for your needs.
Now that my eyes are clear,
I see how kind you were.
I am grateful for unprompted generosity
and will repay in kind.
I hope the night is treating you well
and the morning greets you warmly.

how do you listen to your voice
in this cacophony of distractions?
bombardment of tempting flashes,
stresses, and demands
I wonder how you keep your dream
do you run faster than ever?
do you carry all those burden?
I wonder how you keep your voice.
I am curious to know.

threads of our insights
woven together
shine the night sky bright
wondrous moment, I wonder
silent serendipity of delight
the world of serene divinity, forever.

let the world ravage with jealousy
while I am busy loving you
let the world rummage with fear
while I am busy making something new
let the world chase after the inflammatory
while I am busy dancing in rain with you
ah one, two, three and four!

whether you sit still or run,
you’ll feel pain just the same
when things are said and done
isn’t it much fun to play the game?
even if you believe all of this is meaningless
let us believe for this moment
our moment now is priceless
let us rise and live in the present
if you can’t avoid it,
might as well have fun with it.

little did I know
subtle misinformation
goes a long way.
a good faith in companion
did not last long.
unfortunate, I felt,
inevitable, I knew.
what can we do?
let what may go, go.
let what may come, come.
I will look at the part of horizon
where I am headed to.
where I lay my steps on
will merely be transient.
so let us not stop singing.
let us continue dreaming.
let us continue loving.

I am shaking my legs out of a bad habit
words are running through my mind nonstop
jaws are clenched, neck is stiff, eyes are strained
my breath is forced, ruggedly inhaling, exhaling
then it pops into my head like a red stop
‘what are you doing now?
enough of your excuses.
now is the time to wake up
try fooling others, you might
but don’t try to fool yourself.
be honest.
be brutally honest.
now is the time to live,
to lead your own life.
don’t look away.’
it is still dark outside
the night is long
but eventually
the sun will rise.
the sun will rise,
the sun will rise.

an inception of an idea starts
and the world transforms
or is it I that is transforming?
from the moment I open my eyes
to the moment I close them
the world proceeds like a program
as I have coded them last night.
World of a dream,
or a dream of the world?
I wonder.

there is a story
we don’t know if it is true
but the moment we start believing in it
it becomes true.
it’s a story we write with our own life
against the standards beyond our control
with which posterior will judge us
let it be then
our blood and sweat to be the witness
to our own storytelling.
