being in the “zone”
no one knows how time has gone
a look in the mirror
wrinkles and crow’s feet linger
surely, it’s been a ride through fire
now it’s time for new stage, one higher
let the past go
and dive into the unknown.

Overcome
overcome this no matter what it takes.
yes, it’s a tidal wave of mountainous force
the world as known before is shattering
the firm ground giving away into a void
like a tornado, it’ll pull you into a vortex
faster and deeper into the darkness
but overcome this no matter what it takes.
for there will be a day with a beautiful sun
a peaceful calm blue sky over the head
and you will see a smile
on the most beautiful face
you have ever seen.
so overcome this no matter what it takes.

Pray
I do not see a way out of this
with my own eyes, I don’t.
It is times like this I ask for help
to overcome what I must overcome
and to withstand what I must withstand.
the weight feels bone-crushing
the sharpness, as shape as the tip of a lance
give me a chance.
I will go where I must go.

Sleep
there’s only so many hours you can stay awake
sooner we fall, better are the results
like holding onto the snowball,
longer you hold on, less happy you’ll be
let it go, as they say
and you will see your dream unfold
flapping its wings like a golden crane
when the morning glory arrives
let your souls be ready to welcome it
so let it go for now.

Long walk
it’s learning to be okay with the silence
after your secret’s been revealed
it’s learning to keep the silence
as others chatter to garner their attention
it’s learning to be break the silence
when a need arises, but nobody speaks
it’s a long walk
and there’s a plenty of room to grow.

Duel
when you are on a dueling match with someone
you need to give it all you’ve got.
your energy, your prepared muscle memories,
and most of all, your spirit.
and hopefully, it was a worthwhile way to spend the time.

Morning Glory
let us stand fearlessly towards the rising sun
face the glorious beam of the morning sun
silently, profoundly deep into essence
no dance, no words, but the glance
everything instilled to this moment
let us solemnly rejoice the present
the glance is enough
for I understand your thoughts
I’ll be there soon
know you are in my mood

Exhaustion
this exhaustion, is like an amorphous glass
looking through it, the world reveals itself
within the reach of my palm’s grasp
but my arm wouldn’t stretch out regardless
if the light goes out, it will be a dark night.
as silence fills in the air
and stars, indifferently shines,
I lay down, wondering what the future holds.

Strength
“to withstand things that I can’t”
may be a modern underrated life element
so much power we yield when we want
stop and wonder if all’s gone in a moment
what strength we have left
to withstand all that’s f’d
perhaps we run as fast as we can on bubbles
one day we’ll find gone are all troubles
who knows what future brings
but withstanding pain does sting
Listener
to be honest, I am not sure how it happened.
it is as though it was meant to be.
I sat, stared, and let what may be heard, heard
yet, conversations flowed.
felt, deeper feelings of warm glow
thanked, all those who shared a moment with me.
perhaps, if we run each moment with all we have,
we will at least be able to stand on this land
and know that we have done our best
and leave the rest for the rest.
