New Year

I’ll let last year’s vices
live only in memory.
And not let last year’s regrets
be apart of my future’s chemistry.

I’ll spend the last hours of an old life
the way I wish to live with my blithe renewed mind.
I won’t waste another minute of this great life
worrying about what I’ve left behind.

I’ll look only to my future
and no longer dwell on my ugly past.
Hard times may come my way
but no longer will I let them last.

For You and I

I can wait forever
so the time is just right
for you and I.

And I can be patient
while we wait for the stars to align perfectly
in our graces.

So, even though I hate the silly games
we must keep playing
I won’t give up.

It’s something that we can’t understand
but I won’t let go,
no we can’t let go.

And although, I don’t want to wait anymore
I know that one day the time will be right
for you and I.

Shores of a Dream

I will burry myself
in a sea of fleece
then float on a wave
’till I reach the shores of a dream

on that beach I will fly from the perils of reality
upon a kite of imagination
and let myself be carried away
by the winds of change

and in the morning
I will wake from this fantasy
with a weight having been lifted
and the sun shinning on my face

out of the dark

some experiences cannot be compared to anything else.
some hurt and some happiness cannot be measured by ordinary means.
some loss cannot be regained
some hope cannot be found.
some love is irreplaceable
some emotion is irrational.
most anger is pointless
and most days are wasted
most chances should be taken
most fears are artificial
and most tears are let go at the wrong moment
most of the time life seems futile
but the truth is… in the end everything amounts to something
and everything had its very own meaning,
every song, every word, every fight, every sleepless night
so when you’re hurting, and out of hope still try to live it up
don’t hide in your pain, but always bask in your glory
and when your time is up I hope you can say (if nothing else) ‘at least I had fun’

Placidity

shh
please speak softly
and keep the music low
I do not want to disturb the newfound peace
inside my head.
hush now
and pay attention
listen to the mellifluous lullaby
serenading me with a calm melody
as I drift off to sleep
cozy in my bed

Wake up now!
remember: I have nothing to do today
nothing but smile
so I’ll share with you the roots of my
natural euphoria
I am alive today!
it is the first day of my life
and I want nothing more
then to know what it’s like to existand feel simultaneously
I wrote that 10/23 not sure why I never posted it though…

Eloquence Within

there is something profound on my lips
a certain life message hidden behind my ribs
I’m not quite sure what is it but I know it will be eloquent
once I find the words

there is something new in my soul
an incredible peace, a fresh dose of hope
and as I griped the wheel, I knew it was real
it’s not just a phase, it is everything I’ve been wishing for
