Hidden Despair
No day is different from the next,
Every day is the same,
Agony, misery and pain,
But no one knows it but me,
Others look and still can’t see,
The suffering that hunts me
Like pray,
the cloud that drowns all
happiness away,
The isolation that keeps me astray
From others who want me to be OK
And I want to be OK,
But the blues seem to be here to stay,
Robbing m...

Heart To Heart
What comes from the heart,
goes to the heart.
Every word uttered and
every thought, thought.
It always ends where it starts.
Every piece given,
is always replenished.
Like water to a river,
Love flows through our veins,
ever changing,
yet still remains.

No Conspiracy
These lies are real,
They live on
While the truth is killed,
Murdered right in front of us
Honesty bleeds,
In freedom we trust
Addicted to the game,
You can’t get enough,
Stab yo brother in the back
To feed your lust,
Everyone’s an enemy,
We’re all addicts
Looking for a fix
Doped on fiction
We’re all high
Cause ignorance is bliss,
It feels good ...

Gratefulness is Happiness
Ever notice how the grateful are always happy?
Even through a storm,
they’re smile never dampens.
The ungrateful, however, are never happy.
While swimming in a sea of abundance,
they drown wanting.

How revealing is it to discover a true friend?
Or to discover the one that pretends?
Choose carefully those you hang around,
You never know what lurks beneath a smile,
Trust but verify,
Be wise
the backstabber always has a disguise,
Plotting and scheming hoping you’d fall for the lies,
Grinning away as he showers
you with words made of knives,
Always think twice,

LOH
I’m hopeless,
So hopeless,
And I’m afraid there’s no future for me
Of all the games I’ve played in life, after all the sacrifice,
Nothing seems to turn out right,
Is it the player or the game to blame
For this losing streak that’s driving me insane?
I’m hopeless
And can’t see the forest for the trees,
So hopeless,
And I’m afraid there's no future for me

End Times
People these days treat sin better than their very own kin,
we make an enemy of our friends.
Night is day and day is night, what was wrong,
Is now right, the truth is ugly and lies hold
Beauty, slavery is freedom, ignorance is smart, thinking
Is dangerous, mindlessness is safe, strength is a threat, being
Weak is strong, we lose to win and win to lose, we’re just
Fools gettin...

Individual Acceptance
Is it me or is it you,
that hates the fact,
that I’m not you?
If it’s me, why do I
look in the mirror wishing,
I was you?
If it’s you, why do you
hate me so true,
cause I’m not like you?
Never mind.
It’s not me!
It’s you!
I now realize why you hate me.
It’s because you hate you,
for love in your heart you never knew,
cause if you had, you’d accept

Insight
Over the years I’ve grown,
a new set of eyes.
Clearer and sharper
they’ve grown
to my surprise.
Everything looks different than I
had realized.
My innocent eyes never recognized
the guilt nor the ugly that
shroud in the hearts of many.
My wise eyes reveals
an image of reality that even those
with open eyes fail to see.
What a tragedy, when a man’s
handica...

Puzzle Pieces Of Life
Our stories are puzzle pieces
to the spirit of life.
Each piece,
uniquely designed,
but not dissimilar in significance,
reveals,
when positioned precisely,
a picturesque image of humanity.
Unveiling the meaning of life,
one story at a time.

Freedom's Burden
Freedom carries with it
a burden heavier than bondage,
as a slave endeavors to bear
the obligation of Liberty’s burden,
the Free has already this burden,
endeavoring the strength to endure such weight,
so that his freedom might not be relinquished.

The Weight
Bottled emotions are heavy,
the weight can keep your mind unsteady.
Unbalanced,
you stand the chance of tipping over.
Indeed so,
those emotions will spell over,
expelling another
load off your shoulders,
and peace of mind
your soul will soon discover.

Souls' Worth
Your thoughts are valued, but
your feelings are priceless.
As your mind is monetized,
your soul is worth its weight in gold.

Emotions
We’re all connected.
We can feel the emotions of others
as if the emotion was that of our own.
And of course we feel our own emotions.
Emotions aren’t unique to an individual-
they are universal.
Yet we don’t choose our
very own emotions.
Through life experiences,
emotions choose us.
Randomly and objectively,
the spirit tugs at our emotional

Expression
The words that come from the mind,
write them-though not all.
The words that come from the heart,
recite them, all of them.
Words of the soul express meaning.
Words of the mind are but words, meaningless.

Love
Yes, you are the only one,
it is you I want to see
for all eternity,
you give meaning to the air I breathe
it is you that brings out the best in me,
every word I say
every song I sing,
you are the only light in my darkness,
the seed that keeps me growing,
sprouting patiently and ever so gently.

Mislove
When you loved me
I never heard it.
When you hated me,
it was loud and clear.
The words I needed to hear most
were never spoken,
But the words that hurt most,
were never unspoken.

Loss of Identity
I fake a smile everyday to make pay,
Trying to find my way
In between a rock and a hard place,
Looking for a better day,
But the sun doesn't shine my way
I’m losing my identity
On a mission to find me
Someone help me please
I’m crying helplessly
I have no dreams
It’s hard to sleep with no identity
Looking at a reflection of a stranger in the mirror
I’m losing my...

Lost Soul
Am I supposed to be here or there?
No matter where I go
I seem to be going nowhere
I need help.
Does anyone care?
Who has love to spare?
This one is for the lost souls everywhere.

Love Blues
As I look around
My eyes water
Face frowns another
Day to find a reason to smile
Since you've been gone
things haven’t been the same
faded memories filling my brain
All that remains
Seasons change
snow to rain,
sunshine to clouds
The more change,
greater grows the pain
And it’s you to blame
My heart’s grown cold,
Frozen
no more tendern...

MENTAL BONDAGE
WHY DO YOU WANNA BE THIS WAY?
YOU CAN FREE YOURSELF, BUT YOU CHOOSE TO STAY.
OH, SPIRIT, WHY CLOUD YOURSELF IN
THIS PRISON OF CONFUSION AND DISARRAY?
DON’T YOU KNOW THAT BEING YOU IS THE TRIED AND TRUE?
WHAT A TERRIBLE LIFE TO WASTE?
YOUR DESIRE TO PLEASE YOU DON’T ALIGN WITH YOUR TASTE.
WHAT A FOOL WHO OPTS TO PLAY VICTIM?
WHEN HIS FREEDOM OF FEAR CRAFTS HIS OWN WISDOM.

THE CREATOR
I HAVE EVERYTHING I NEED,
TO SUCCEED,
GIVEN TO ME,
BY THE SOURCE OF POWER,

WHICH IS THAT OF HE,

DREAM QUEST
MOVING IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT
THE SPIRIT OF YOUR MINDS EYE RUNS WILD
OH, WHAT A DELIGHT?
WHAT VIVID PICTURES TO REMEMBER?
THE WILD FANTACY YOU ENVISIONED
A PLEASURE GIVEN TO YOU UNCONDITIONED
GO ON, LEAP INTO THE SEA OF POSSIBILITY
LIFE’S YOUR DECISION

FEARLESS MIND
LIFE BEGS ME TO DARE,
BUT MY AUDACITY TO STARE,
IN ITS GLARE
IS TOO HARD TO BARE,
AS I SIT FEARFUL IN THIS CHAIR,
FEAR OF MYSELF IS THE CAUSE OF MY SORROW,
THE TRUTH IN FRONT OF ME IS A BITTER PILL TO SWALLOW,
BUT THINGS WILL BE BRIGHTER TOMORROW,
FOR SERVING MY SOUL TODAY
SHALL SPARE ME WRECKAGE THAT SAILS AT BAY

Love of Religion
Love, the source of your existence,
seeded in the heart of humanity, from
distance to distance, it's persistent,
it has no condition, only that you'd listen
to the feelings of aww
that begs you to embrace the religion of love
as your decision.

Embrace The Mystery
As I recharge my soul, awaiting to be whole,
I gaze at the pond for which has been gifted,
my spirit now uplifted,
oh my,
what a blessing it is to be so lifted?
lifted above the fray, ready to embrance the posibilities of today.
