Plant a seed
Everybody wants that beautiful flower,
But nobody wants to plant that seed.
People don’t carry visions,
They lack goals and ambition.
They don’t realize the seed is small and rich,
With endless possibilities,
That is humble yet powerful that can stitch,
A connection between Nature and life,
Not knowing a seed having potential can,
Save our world.
People need to be grounded when making decisions;
Sticking to their roots,
Because it can indicate the root of the problem
Or success.
Surround yourself with positive people, like...
But nobody wants to plant that seed.
People don’t carry visions,

FAMILY
Family will be the greatest treasure,
You will ever find.
A monument that stands,
That will forever shine.
It is family we shall cherish most because;
It was them that had brought us to life.
An unbreakable bond we all still hold,
Because family’s love intends to unfold.
But we intend to point fingers when
Tragedy strikes.
An internal wound we all feel,
Leaving us emotionless.
No stitches only scars,
That makes us heartless.
We fight endlessly for nothing,
Burning bridges, shattering hearts, leaving scars,
Only to prove who’s...
You will ever find.
A monument that stands,
That will forever shine.
It is family we shall cherish most because;
It was them that had brought us to life.
An unbreakable bond we all still hold,
Because family’s love intends to unfold.
But we intend to point fingers when
Tragedy strikes.
An internal wound we all feel,
Leaving us emotionless.

Metaphorically Speaking
Where I lay my head,
Upon my bed; sinking into a pillow,
Fading off into a deep sleep,
In a dream,
Where my soul is lost,
Deep within the seven seas,
Trying to save every soul;
Eventually drowning my own,
Over the years
Still soul searching,
Because I myself; lost faith,
Thinking the world may change
The person I may become,
Afraid the future I envisioned
Wouldn’t be the same,
Trying to spread word of wisdom;
People believe in me
But I myself...
Upon my bed; sinking into a pillow,
Fading off into a deep sleep,
In a dream,
Where my soul is lost,
Deep within the seven seas,
Trying to save every soul;
Eventually drowning my own,
Over the years
Still soul searching,
Because I myself; lost faith,
Thinking the world may change
The person I may become,
Afraid the future I envisioned
Wouldn’t be the same,
Trying to spread word of wisdom;

Best Friend till the end
it’s amazing that we,
Came across as strangers,
You and I,
Within minutes were friends;
Hours into good company
Into days with time and devotion:
Became close,
Within months passing by
We were forever family,
A bond that bends
But will never break,
Without a doubt
You were only a phone call away,
It’s the small stories we share,
That makes me see something
I couldn’t see without you,
When I was down; you picked me up
When I was rising up; you...

To My Dearest Friend
Simply hard to focus
To say what’s on my mind
Seeing what I feel
Expressing my emotions; feelings
I can no longer hold inside
With so much on my mind
Every minute ticking winding down
I’m always sitting next to you
Grabbing, squeezing ,holding your hand
Never leaving; always by your side
Praying for a miracle
Praying for love and support
That’s when I broke down and cried
Letting tears tremble down my face
Asking myself what if’s and why
Simply because Seeing...

perspectives
We intend to judge others
By their behavior,
And ourselves by
Our intentions,
Because were so concerned
Of people’s opinions,
Believing in something
We don’t understand,
Digging in the past
To find the truth,
Digging for forgiveness
To embrace wisdom,
Acceptance, maturity,
To grow as individual
As a person in society,
Denying who we are meant to be
Afraid to accept mistakes,
What’s the difference
Between you and I?
We both...

Embracing Hate
It's been awhile since; I've wrote a story this deep.
Been trying to write a message where everybody can connect.
Deep within my mind; of how I truly feel…Honestly it's kind of difficult when your heart is filled with hate.
Eyes overflowing with anger. Rage changes your perspective.
Even your soul starts to deteriorate.
Without realizing, you start to bury your own heart deep within the ground, shoveling dirt covering it with lies.
Too afraid to make mistakes; afraid to confront “fear”.
Every decision; every action; I was always...

A Beautiful War
A Rose grew with seven pedals
as each pedal plucked
each one represents
a broken piece of
the seven stages of true love
what love suppose to mean
act of falling in love
most famous stage of them all
lust and desired taste
feelings of attachment and commitment
just a thought of appreciation
appreciating the fact I'm attracted to you
while your falling in love
in our meaningful conversation
entitled to this chemical romance
logic mix with reason is apathetic
but our pride and motivation ...

Love that Never was
following the curve
of my hand,
A bottle filled with Ink
The pen starts to cry
dripping on paper,
with every tear drop,
telling a beautiful story,
how your lips became the gun,
your smile was the trigger,
& your kisses were the bullets,
how I labeled you a killer,
inhaling your beauty,
drawn by your scent,
a feeling I couldn't describe,
how this poison you called love,
injected into my veins
hitting every line,
flowing deep within me,
I have nothing to fear,
your the only person
I trust and believe,...

My journey
A young poet
with no vision
only a Kid
with a dream
a nightmare I couldn't escape
corrupted by anger
later evolved to hate
to the point where I wrote a letter
how I was better off dead
only way to release my stress
just wanted to write
writing was a drug
the words were a dose to ease the pain
I wrote every time I was angry
expressing my feelings in a way
to release all the bad memory
into writing short stories
i was stuck in my shy and passive shell

The Truth
The truth shall set you free
but does it really
No solutions
Without damaging
only to expose you
this world is an illusion
covered up in chaos and confusion
with lies you may get ahead
it has speed
but the truth has endurance
in telling the truth
you don't have to remember anything
but if you lie
it gets caught up in a spider web
trapped in its own lie
because who will lie for you
is the same person
that will lie against you
the truth will never lie
the truth fears no question
it fears no one
respect...

My crush
taking my time
just relaxing
letting all my words fall
crumble from the mind
depicting my thoughts
writing every word; every line
my heart wants to be heard
had to send it out
honesty is the best policy
its a poisonous pill
since love is my opponent
breathe love in deeply
meditate your breathe
she's a just a crush
all in your head
as in science; there's no wrong results
order to fall in love
have to be ready; deep down
to let go of things
and put some faith in fate
