I Surrender

A Promise (Re-edited)

I no longer the need to witness the sun rays again… Darkness encompassed me like auburn rain. Drenched in blood, the streets shall know nothing of mortal footsteps for those days are long gone.

Gravity
Gravity The one and only thing that never lets me down. Makes me see the clarity upon situations. Enduring the sheer weight of the world upon my shoulders, they can only handle so much. I may have fallen many times, but I have risen every single time. The more cumbersome the weight, the sweeter theContinue reading “Gravity”
Sand Castles
Sand Castles I’ve put up walls so far up to a point, that I no longer could see the apex. I can still sense and feel the warmth of sunshine, so there is still hope. You can get close to me, but not too close. For I see no point in building something that’ll oneContinue reading “Sand Castles”
Invisible Sun
Invisible Sun ☀️ The sun shone invisible rays across the sky. Across the vastness of infinite darkness. Soon spanned throughout our bubble of reality… So fragile and so minute.

Tapestry
If God were to wear clothes, what materials would be used to make it?Would it be the softest of linens, or the harshest of burlap?Would it just be nothing at all…in reflection of the creation of Adam and Eve for they initially wore nothing at all…They have partaken the forbidden fruit; in which it conceivedContinue reading “Tapestry”
Blue Dragon
Dragon flies, Fire fruit and Burning Incense Were strewn across the rustic table like morbid ornaments. Burning paper of embers evanesce into the air like the pages of the forbidden book of spells..Transparent glass like wings, divided by intricate veins and organic lines, reminding me that it once was a living creature.It had lived aContinue reading “Blue Dragon”
Tears of Joy
Tears of joy… Can the trails of my tears surpass the deepened depths of my soul? Dug in deep into the soil of forgiveness. Propagate the growth of openness of trust again… They fall as they may into a downward spiral, of the ever churning waters. I’m left dry for I have no more sorrowContinue reading “Tears of Joy”
Life Itself..
Serein has taught me a valuable lesson today about life. The very purpose of life is to simply enjoy the growth and progress resulting in care.It isn’t healthy to dwell on the question of “what went wrong?” or “What could’ve been done to change the outcome?” Truth is, life is about learning, growing, not repeatingContinue reading “Life Itself..”
Watercolors
Watercolors We see the same things Uncertainties abound Rains of crystals fall among us Our love story unabridged with only subtle callings for grace… I understood you without speaking Your lyrics are lovely..

Be Patient
If you truly love somebody, give them their independence. And if they love you freely it’s because they choose to love you, and that’s real love.Codependency and control has nothing to do with love. It only feeds into the insecurities, satiates the ego; propagating an atmosphere equipped with eggshells, second guesses and guilt.The universe isn’tContinue reading “Be Patient”
The Yearn
The yearn… I am accepting that when myNeeds and standards aren’t met, I will fade. I know this much to continue to do self care and invest in myself. The wane of my current situation is inevitable and I will be internally prompted to be drawn to elements that will be beneficial to me. FeedContinue reading “The Yearn”
Shedding Some Light
I see things differently over time.People, to me play a role as if scripted. As they provided me insight.My interactions vary, depending on my mood at the time.My mood has been numb for the past several months…Most times, I’ve uncharacteristically reacted the polar opposite of what people might expect of me.I don’t take life asContinue reading “Shedding Some Light”
Vulnerable
You begin to realize that you don’t necessarily miss the person you were with. You miss the feeling of being vulnerable associated with that person. That feeling of love and trust that you’ve shared with that someone. It doesn’t happen overnight. It takes years to build that openness and trust. Most close friends that IContinue reading “Vulnerable”
