come, stay and let's talk. it's a good day to be alive
somehow
when I raised my head
and saw the time
5 hours had passed by.
I looked down again,
and went back into the fray.
it’s chaotic, but it’s a good work.
I’ve put in my best,
and at times I have lost,
but I am not regretful of it.
I am glad I put in my best
and tomorrow, I will do it again.

either find yourself as a fool,
riding a rollercoaster
mixed with revelations and disappointments,
or get enough sleep.
it will go a long way,
pave the way for new possibilities.
good luck.

keep going.
but make sure to remember
you must stop
when the time comes.
but for now,
like a fire hungry for more,
like a whirlwind evermore,
keep going.

somewhere a flake of white snow fell
it touched upon my heart and melted
I could not tell if it was my heart or the snow
Its curious eyes stared into my soul
I could only reply in bare honesty.
I hope to tell my life story
all of its flaws and meanings
and I want to listen to it
where it came from
and what it has seen.
it would be a good long night
listening to stories.

it appears I wanted to much?
what do you call this?
this bright little thing
a silver thread
that slips through your fingers
and disappears into darkness.
is it called hope?
it lingered on my finger tips awhile.
well, I deeply appreciated it while it lasted.
now, the darkness engulfs this sphere.
it’s another time to take a deep, long dive
into the darkness.
I wish to see it again,
that bright silver lining.

blood is rushing
we are running
it feels right
yet it’s too tight
the gap between human and animal
don’t become too primal.

no words are needed.
the silence speaks louder.
all the inexplicables,
indescribable, and
imaginables are shared
among those who have lived
and thought about this life.

in a silent night
I saw a glimpse of light
I hope it is alright
for me to reach this bright
shining light tonight

do I deserve to be loved?
I realized things have changed
and that I am not in mud any more.
but the memory of the dark water
lingers too close in my mind.
do I deserve to be loved?
can I ask to be loved?
can I be free to love?
to find out,
I’ll be a bit more honest,
I’ll work hard,
but not to earn the love,
but to protect those that I love.

a leverage can get you quickly
to your destination.
But I want to steep in
like a sauna in a white cold winter
when the warmth reaches my bones
I can start to realize
there are not only stars in this wide sky
but also the silent constellations.
