Life is Hard, and Then...?

Someone forgets while another remembers

He who regrets ever stumbles

Someone humbles while another rages

He who grumbles never gauges

Someone desires while another builds

He who hungers shall be filled

Someone loves and so he giveth

He of Him shall ever liveth

The Cloud To My Ray Of Sunshine

As the sun starts to rise and peep over the horizon

Light begins to flood through the window

Causing tears to glisten down rosey cheeks

And as that ray, of hope it seems, hits my heavy heart

I realize that you were my sunshine

Breaking through these grey clouds of mine

The Lucky Bugs

Too many times I've thrown caution to the wind

And wound up like a bug on a windscreen.

And after impact, it doesn't matter what you were

A beautiful butterfly, a stinging bee or a pathetic dung beetle...

Its all just a mess in the end.

Windy Smiles

She had never cared for the wind in her hair before. She had always felt it a chaotic mess with her hair blowing in and out of her face. But today...today it made her feel free. She smiled to herself as the wind blew her hair across her lips and she felt no need to brush her hand along her cheek to move it away. Standing outside her first house, she couldn't believe the day had finally come, the day of freedom. She knew it came with great responsibility, but today, that could wait...

She slowly went inside,smiling and even chuckling as that inviting wind added to her happiness.

Cloudy Words in the Wind

Letters scrawled across the page

Ideas printed on paper

Thoughts pieced together on parchment

Dreams expanded to writing...

Yet the words do not flow

The brilliance cannot come.

Hidden in the shadows of the mind

The insane shows not its face

Doom Circles

The end is in sight

But yet another beginning looms ahead

A Step Away

In an emotionless world...

In a fearless world...

Without hope, with no worries

Without love, with no tears

No cares, no sleepless nights

No goodbyes, no hunger

With these nothings out of the way,

What shall stand before us,

What, in our path, shall lie?

Yet without emotions

Without fears, hope, love

With no fears nor cares

Without those sleepless nights...

Why would we still desire these paths?

Emotions carry, fears drive

Hope supports, love comforts

And caring nurtures

Without these, what shall we become?
