Crashing waves

I’ve been hankering, I’ve been lacking I’ve been trying to mask needing you With every puff, every sip, every body I’ve been trying not to carry the weight of the world It only awakened me to deeper truths Seeing it all and never doing anything Endeavoring to shed light, trying constantly. We knew the world, we understood it. I wanted to build a fortress for us I wanted to build my life around you. But that obstacle tore us apart I fell in your absence I fell into the universe and lost myself in spirituality The more I tried to run away from my destiny The more I tried to fight being in the present It only awakened me to deeper truths My higher self, my soul spoke to me. It revealed many but one, one was constant that I need you, that I needed my anchor I’ve been through so much pain With life turbulences and storms These growing pains, these aches They made me fight my true nature Not to deny any aspects of me But I love living in balance I love it when my ocean is calm

Prayer for reason

Keep the illusion up, let them see purpose. I know you're just there existing. As long as you're breathing, keep that heart beating It don't matter if the muscles on your face won't stretch right It don't matter that your smile is not the same anymore Keep at it, don't give up. Struggle a bit longer You're not dead yet. They see you breathing. They can feel your heart beat. Cold as it is. They can feel your heat, you're not dead. Keep at it just a little bit longer Maybe there's a silver lining just around the corner In this round existence, there's a silver lining just around the corner. Even if you're just surving now, that's all that matters. They are all that matter so live. Live for them, if not for yourself. Love for them, if not for yourself. Do it all for them Maybe you'll find your own in the midst of it all.

No rush

Walk a little slower, there's no rush. You ain't got anywhere to be, slow down. You know there isn't anyone waiting on you, You'll be dancing by yourself anyway, like always. But atleast you won't have to pretend anymore, You can finally let go and lose yourself. The four hours of sleep you'll get are enough to collect the pieces. Just enough to keep a smile on your face. The dark circles are almost invisible when you smile, Who cares if it won't reach your eyes, no one really notices anyway. So take the long way home, keep reality at bay. Just a little longer, fool the world a little longer, Lose yourself in the lie just a bit longer. No harm done. Walk a little slower, there's no rush. You ain't got nowhere to be, you might as well get lost.

Mother

There's little to no words to describe you. To describe the strength you carry without boasting , To describe the power you possess without pride. Always with humbling humility you serve without asking. You are the embodiment of phenomenal and grace. Your selflessness is without bounds, it sometimes drives me mad, And yet it is your most beautiful quality and it humbles me still. The smile you wear on your face through tribulation and truimph is flawless, True in every essence of the word and it shines through without fault. The grandness of your heart fills me with tears of joyful pride, It holds so much love, care, kindness and genuine affection, It's a wonder you aren't glowing. All these words I've written will never be enough to express my truest emotions Because there's little to no words to describe you. You are mother, precious and beautiful. I love you wholeheartedly and without doubt.

Truth Is

Truth is you're always on my mind. I haven't gotten over you, not even close. I still stretch out my arm reaching for you at night. I wake up with the taste of your name on my lips. At the most random times I feel the ghost of your touch on my hips. I smile and turn my head, but you aren't there anymore, You're just a memory, a dream turned into a nightmare A neverending nightmare filled with laughter and joy. You haunt me with your absence and taunt me with your presence. So close, yet ever so far out of reach. My reach. Seeing you happy tears me apart and brings me joy, It's all I ever wanted for you, but with me. Only with me. I still wonder where it all came apart, when did I lose you? I don't remember looking at you and not drowning in love, I thought you'd always be there to keep me afloat and weather this sea of love. But now you're no longer mine, you're the wind to his sails. You glide through these torturous waters and I dro

Only My Hands Can Explain These Tears

I am one of those ever smiling people, never sad and never angry. I float and drift through the sun's hours with happiness on my face. I wave, laugh and tell a dozen jokes to blind witnesses who see but don't really see. I move from crowd to crowd, wondering and searching for one who'll actually look. But no one seems to notice, no one seems to care So only these hands of mine can explain the tears I shed. When the sun recedes to rest and prepare for the morrow. I too rest my smile and brick by brick tear down my walls. I put away the memories I carry to stretch my face and hide my pain. I shelve away what strength I have and hope it'll be enough to carry me still. I look in the mirror and the nile flows in graceful streams down my face. The dull eyes staring back are that of a well known stranger. And the hands reaching up to offer comfort are stranger still. The sobs that wreak through my battered body go unseen. The violent trembling barely hidden und
