Escape

poem / June 18, 2021
There is a power inside,
A power that wants out,
An out that doesn't exist,
That doesn't exist yet,
Yet it must be,
Because why would it feel so real,
So real if it didn't exist,
Just give me a chance
A moment to realize the out,
Maybe to imagine it into being,
To believe it exists,
To create it,
To know it,
To go there,
There where my energy is,
Where I am complete,
There where I am whole;
Where I am who I am;
Where I am me;
Where I can be me;
I can do me;
I can live me
I can live true
There where I will live true,
Authentic and genuine to myself
To my being;
To my nature
To my original purpose
As I am
Just let me free
Please let me free;
Set me free,
Set me free, time;
Set me free, soul;
Be free,
Be free, me
Be free;

Always Right

My action may be wrong, but my reaction is always right;
My judgement may be flawed, but my intent is always right;
My argument may be biased, but my statement is always right;

A damn-like life

poem / July 17, 2020

You uphold gentleness,
bullies tag along;

You observe righteousness,
troubles follow you;

You love, like really love,
they eat your heart;

The silent knows,
what the quiet says;

The wise understand,
what the learned speaks;

the lonely feels, the lonely sees,

...incomplete, to be continued...

Am Free, Am Limitless

#quotesbyme, Motivational, poem / October 8, 2019

My limitations, lack, misfortunes, shortcomings, weakness, failures are my opportunities, is my advantage, is my freedom

There’s nothing i can’t do now, am limitless.

I have no status to maintain, i have no loyalty to keep, i have no pride to guard, i have no promise to fulfill, am free.

Exitus acta probat ~ the outcome justifies the deed.

I want to be responsible for my words, a man if my words; without it am nothing. I will be grateful. I will be ethical. I will protect life. I will honor hard work. I will respect the journey. I will appreciate the trying. I will love. I will love.

“Love is as much a question of the will as it is of the emotion. And if you WILL to love somebody, you can.” ~ Ravi Zacharias’ brother

Ravi Zacharias, I, Isaac, Take Thee, Rebekah: Moving from Romance to Lasting Love

Time, patience, youth and good health will be my treasures.

…a certain koi had the strength and courage to climb a certain waterfall. When the koi reached the top exhausted, yet having reached its goal, the koi was transformed into a dragon…

The Story of the Koi Dragon

Value is not in work, value is in the process, the experiences, and the impact in another person.

You smell just right,
You sound exactly perfect,
You walk exactly straight,

Thank you for being mine, my love.

What don’t you complain about?

You complain about what they do and what they don’t;

You complain how the economy is, and how it is not;

You complain when it rains and when the sun is shining;

You complain when things go well as well as unwell;

You complain when you work and when its luck;

You complain when you are hungry and when you’ve overeaten;

You complain how life is unfair and when it fairly treats you;

You ask for more freedom but wish for less responsibility;

Now that am here, now that we are here;

Now that am here, now that we are here;

What shall I lose to say what I didn’t like about you?

You cooked good meals I know…

You washed my clothes well…

You tendered our house always…

But that’s not what I choose you for;

I wanted a helper, you were;

I wanted love, you were;

I wanted to be loved, you did;

I wanted someone your shape,

I wanted someone your height,

I wanted someone your smile,

I wanted someone your charisma,

I wanted someone your aura,

I wanted anything and everything you.

And now we got to say goodbyes,

I wish you a beautiful life,

I wish you prosperous endeavors,

I wish you fruitful encounters.

I loved you like my heart,

I grew to love you more than me,

I had matured in love with you,

You helped me learn true love,

I learnt…

For anything I did wrong, bear my apologies.

I did it all with good intention.

I would ask you to stay once more,

But I don’t want to live doing that,

Go well and live well,

I hope we meet sometime and somewhere we are both happy,

I wish you success and luck in love,

Am sorry if you didn’t feel loved by me,

I realize there are some things I don’t want to change about me,

As I realize there are some things you won’t compromise either,

Am really, really sorry for anything that hurt you, it was never intentional,

Don’t worry about me, I will be fine, I’ll try to be fine…

A life Like Damn

You uphold gentleness,
Bullies tag along;

You observe righteousness,
Troubles follow you;

You love, like really love,
They eat your heart;

The silent knows,
What the quiet says;

The wise understand,
What the learned speaks;

The lonely feels, the lonely sees,
The art in beauty;

Half

poem / May 5, 2019

I can’t have both, and I can’t half me;

I love one, and want no other;

Sometimes maybe, but not a lifetime;

These two will pass, and this too shall pass;

Give me a loan, and leave me alone;

I do want some, I want the awesome;
