remember those who helped you.
remember to pass along their love.
when you give, you are actually receiving.
stay focused on small things to be grateful of
hopefully, your effort will be seen.

Close
Survived the last round of dog fight
who knows what the future brings
rise again and fight
tomorrow is another judgment day.
remember to love
It will guide you the way

Fight
now is not the time to cry
now is the time to rise and fight
fear not against merciless challenges
protect your sense of purpose
remember to retain your humanity
and charge forward

Nothing
when you have built a castle on top of a cloud
shake it all down, let them fall crashing down
once you are done crying over them
build them back up
one by one
forget about the worries
forget about the fears
focus on each brick
then one day,
you’ll see you castle again
founded on a firm ground
and you will find happiness
and contentment for yourself.

Curiosity
early morning, I read a note by an erudite:
“curiosity is the key.”
it sparked a notion I deliberately obscured.
curiosity is unforgiving, yet a graceful path
it has taken many and then given me much
perhaps life is too short for it.
yet, it dances in the universe to make life alive.
I am convinced for now,
it is a way of life worth living.

Core
I could not get the words out
I tried biting the tongue
I tried bitting the finger
but the words would not come out.
the longing to feel
the desire to be wanted
dissipated like a small fire
tucked in the darker corner of the room.
still, it will ignite again,
and I will do it again.

Sharp
be careful if you start hearing sweet words.
do not let your heart be distracted.
walk the walk that you must walk.
speak the truth and hold onto them
even if everyone walks away from you.
be curious when you hear harsh criticisms
remember each of the burning words
implore the meaning within them
for there might be a hidden gem
more precious than you can imagine

Center
do I need to belong
so that I don’t stand alone
or does the world come along
as I walk through the storm?
lightening and thundering give me headaches
but through it all, the walk is alright.
it’s one none had walked
yet, i am not sure why,
I feel I am at home

Boop
I am glad I was happy for a moment today.
the air was soft and sweet.
the sun graceful and reminiscent.
light and shadow mingled into brushed yeux-orange.
it was a good break for my soul.
I am grateful for this peaceful pause.

Knowledge
relax a little
your body knows
from thousands of trainings
when the lightening strikes
how to fix the intricate problem.
time slows
and you will start to see
how the new world reveals itself
live that moment.
