POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Writing is my best friend
If I had to choose a hobby as my best friend
I would choose writing as it reveals a lot
About what's on my mind
Brings in new ideas I never realized before
Helps me cleanse my problems to deep, meaningful poems
Or clarification itself
Writing is my go-to thing to scribble on a piece of paper
Straight away
Anytime, anywhere
Wherever I may have a notebook and pen
Perhaps makes me feel secure
Keeping everything in place
Things often goes to plan
For what is written down
Is like a permanent marker but of temporary use

Come home to God
I need to look after myself first
Come home to God, read His word, the bible
My keepsake, my life
But sometimes I undeniably slip away from my faith
And all things set loose
Without God,
There is no real back-up or inner satisfaction
Because when I don't look after myself
Positives turns to negative thinking
Attitudes,committments, always thinking what is best, the devil is on the run to test me!
Wanting to rain, I'm lacking clarity
My mind gets fogged up like the clouds in the sky
I don't know what I'm doing
Nothing standard, nothing stable...

What makes you so different?
What makes you so special?
Because
What else if I met you in the dark
And we held each other close
Like the world around us doesn't matter
As long as we have each other
Nothing can stop us
What else if I met you in my dreams?
How tall are you?
What is your smell?
What are you like, standing there, standing around?
Sometimes I want to hold your hand
To get a glimpse of who you are
Let's go from who are you to who you are
Know each other blindly before judging face to face.

Notice the middle child
You can scroll through the news-feed
Go on, pass me by without a hello
Or acknowledgement
My so-called friends have turned into strangers
Who are they, where are they now?
They say small things comes in packages
I'm small
Couldn't care less about being tall
Beauty is pain anyway
Nothing special
What's news to you?
So much effort in between
What's original?
What is acceptable in society?
What is normal?
Let the middle child stand out from the older and younger
We should be acknowledged, noticed, be the center of attention

Controlling your emotions
Controlling your emotions is one of the best powers
You could ever ask yourself to do
Get those feelings out
Out of the blue
When you think of them
Do you feel the same before or is it different?
As someone else comes knocking at your door
This paranoia, this paranoia
If I see them on the street
I would act a certain way
To get his attention
And then when he sees me I'll look away
When you see their pictures online
Do you ever wonder if these feelings will go away
Off the line?
Does it bring them closer or further away from you?...

Suddenly-love in, love out
This is random
That's so random
You're staring at me
Running around like a monkey
When you're hanging with your friends
But behind closed doors
You are different
Scrolling through the newsfeed
You're looking for my pictures
You're looking for my pictures
(Why?)
What's to be afraid of?
I don't bite
I am a nice person
Lets be real
I wanna do things real
Seal the deal LOL
Write me a letter
Write me my name
Do you even know me?
My door is open
Send me a text
Slap high-fives, you know what works best...

Blank canvas
"Some places have dirty spaces begging for an intervention. Fill it with a work of art. Challenging the status quo and taking control of your own. For example, using recyclable materials within the environment"- Lisa T.
Blank canvas, blank canvas
Do you see me now?
Add some splash of colour (colour)
Spice it up
All over summer
Step away from the pains
Colour, colour blacks, blues, reds
I don't need this, I don't need this
Blank canvas purify me
Make me a clean awakening
Seeking clarity realities
Not over-thinking fantasies...

The Power of Patience: Actions is LOUDER than Words
Gotta learn to be patient
If we are not patient
How will we ever learn?
Give it time
Give it space
Accept what's been done is done
What's been given is given
May we let time tell the truth
About this person
They say 3 shots takes a hit
Until they are out
Out of this 'game'
Better hope their not lame
Better hope their not one to fall for
And call me 'insane'
I wanna be able to make it to home run
So they can win my heart over
Meeting predictions that shall be right, not over wrong
Tranquilty and energy
Off from the...

Junkie
So many books I haven't touched in years
So many toys I never played but kept
I wonder where all that time went
Got junk in my room
Don't know what to do
Got junk in my room
AND I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!
CHORUS:
Clothes on the floor
(what's love, what's hate)
Papers all over the show
(what's in, what's out)
Man, I wanna keep 'em all
But some things have go to go (oh)
They had their fair share of space
In my messy room, yeah
Putting it here, leaving it there
Buy more things, add more junk to my 'kingdom of glory'...

You're no longer mine
Why does it take me so long to write a song about you?
Guess you weren't enough for me to define
A truer you
Wishing I could know more
But too much of the truth is hidden
Behind closed doors
I can't seem to find it all
Though, what I know now
Is that your words show
No passion, no empathy
Lacking true lover sympathy
You say that you love me
What you do
Tells me something different
So WHO are you really?
And WHAT do you WANT? (want?)
If you have no words to express
Then hear me out, out, out
CHORUS:...
