Executioner
Before after
No matter how hard I try
I can’t get past, missing you
It has become all too familiar
Like that moment in time, just before
Everything that matters- changes
The gravity of reality was too much
To bear even for my reluctant tears
And like my heart, they fell, splattered
“I miss you” couldn’t begin to cover
The raw scars left in your place
To accompany those moments
I’ve regrettably have come to hate:
A plethora of moments before
Cruelly subsequence your departure
Before I learned my invincibility
Was found cloaked in your arms
Before I knew your love for me
Could touch so deep- within
Before the taste of your lips
Would become my only hunger
Before the pain that now defines me
Reminds me, I simply can’t endure
Before every bound memory of you
Also binds all happiness I’ve known
Even now my brave tears cling
To the…

Today’s Quote
Truly, it is in darkness
that one finds the light,
so when we are in sorrow,
then this light
is nearest of all to us.
~ Meister Eckhart ~

Why Can’t It Be?
Why Can’t It Be?
why?
why can’t it be?
why can’t we meet
somewhere in the horizon
where the earth and the sky delightedly unite
or, in between the colors of the rainbow
and far beyond the clouds?
even just a little bit under the sky?
why?
just why?
i’ll wait for you with all my warmth and brilliance
smiling upward at heavens, knowing that
in the honeyed light of the evening, you will be there
blossoming like as a flower blossomed against the pure sunlight
but, why?
just why?
why can’t it be?
i only hope that you too
will wait for me, as you affectionately welcome
the burning hue of the sunset, suggesting the impending night
where you, with all your glory, shines in luster, and in gleam
please wait, I beg of you, wait, I supplicate
but, why?
just why?
why can’t it be?
why can’t there…

Live life lovingly!
Do you need something to happen
To be happy?
Does someone have to make you smile?
Do you need something to be done by another to feel joyous
Do you want others to impress upon you for you to be cheerful?
If you have answered yes to any of these questions …
Do you care to motivate another to be happy?
How many times have you smiled for another?
Motivation to be happy works best when its intrinsic.
Yes you have this life you are living
Make sure to make your moments happy 😊
Yes everyday is different
Life is not perhaps easy for any of us.
Sometimes the night is long
And light shines a little later than you may want it to
But know there is always a day after the night…
And light is meant to shine on your path once again.
Be happy with yourself first!

End Of Everything
“I wonder how I managed to find you.
How all the pieces of the puzzle
that was made of us came together.”
At the ending of everything, I often wonder what would have happened if there was a continuation. I wonder what the trees would whisper late into the night when the moon hits its apex. I wonder what the rain would wash away if it only kept going for another day. I wonder how I managed to find you. At that moment. In that room. How all the pieces fell into place like they were pieces of a puzzle that was made of us. And sometimes, I wonder if this constant state of feeling like I’m at the edge of oblivion will finally come to an end. Would that deep abyss cease to exist? Or would I be able to tell my feet to slowly back away from the…
