it’s inevitable.
the feelings imbuing your heart
when there is a touch.
there can be so much connection
in what is said and what is not said.
but without the touch,
I wonder how strong it will be.

Choice
it’s a choice about which future to choose.
my heart says one thing, and my head another.
I’ve tried going with my heart before.
especially when it comes down to choosing a person,
I learned the heart can be misleading.
with people, the answer arrives only too late.
I wonder if I am making the right choice.
I wonder if I can be comfortable in the future
with the choice.
I wonder if I can make a choice without the others’ influence.
we will see in the future.
we will once again,
be tested.

Everything
even if you know you will lose this fight,
give it your everything.
even if it is obvious the outcome will not change,
give it your everything
even if it means you will lose all you have,
give it your everything.
because life is lived but once
and we are given only one chance
how to live at this moment
here and now.
so give it your everything
into whatever you believe in.

Upgrade
something happened.
as if a veil of intelligence was revealed,
my mind cleared, my body abided.
I smashed the ball with my racquet,
it returned with accuracy and high velocity.
as if in a flow, high speed exchange continued.
I woke up from the slumber of the average
and felt my new skin of rediscovered self.
Through sublimation, growth, and evolution,
I sensed an upgrade.

Open-mind

keep trying.
you will evolve
towards the direction
of your decisions.

Grow
there was a crack in this mundane world
a whole new world waited beyond the crack.
I witnessed marvelous creations.
some, just like my dream, others, beyond them.
like Harry Potter, I knew I belonged there.
it is the time to grow, to leap into the new world.

Strength
as my history follows me
I am swimming faster than ever.
words to soothe my worries melt away
as I yearn to be better than yesterday.
let my work be of help, a stepping stone.
for someone yearning to be better.

Meeting
our eyes met.
our ears opened.
and our minds drifted
through multiple paradigms.
as we walked the journey,
many of us felt it:
we are the one.
may us remember this
may us meet again.

Battle
everyone was busy covering themselves.
no one knew what is right or wrong.
we sensed the moment
and grasped at whatever we felt
was a hand of salvage.
there were comrades who saved us,
and those of us who sought to severe the tie
with a sharp little teeth
glistening as they smile.
in the end, we remembered those who saved us.
those who we helped,
and appreciate the fondness we have for each other.

More
can I do my best?
can I challenge the best in the world?
what is the limit to my mind and body?
what is the limit of our current known world?
what if we can evolve?
what if we become better than yesterday?
let us rise to our challenge face to face
let us learn and grow.
