Welcome To My World

Each day I thrive on wanting to be me and only me

The world is not that grand to allow such

We live each day as it comes

Even though we may plan for the future

My future is at arm’s length

But never as mapped out as I would like

Foresee the hate that follows me

Is a thing of the present, the past and most importantly the future?

Excited that I live another

I dread not being happy with how it has unfolded

Fear has become and everyday meal

Serving up a three course meal more than four times a day

The unfortunate result is anger and frustration

Excited that I live another

I dread not being happy with how it has unfolded

I keep that smile on my face

Attempting to act like it does not matter

But my pain goes skin deep

Sending shivers down my spine

Whirlwinds through my veins

Cold fronts through my bones

Confusion in and around my brain

And sadness in my heart

Excited that I live another

I dread not being happy with how it has unfolded

Love Life

Jubilations of the here has become the now

Taunting our very being from it being it

Living the true us being just that

Spoiling the view of whom that is lost to be

The day of reckoning is upon our doorstep

Embracement of thee that has created through facial movements

Turns this to a marvelous marvel worth sharing

Triumphs come and go but ride that train while it’s at its pinnacle

Strive to have a welcoming smile on your face

Give yourself a facial of contentment

That will visit you every morning

Have that expression of completeness for breakfast, lunch, brunch and supper

Don’t be fooled but the unhappy snake of hate

Destroy its goals of rotten unworthy causes

Shout at the top of your heart that life is not great but grand

And its sneaky bad habits will not get you down

The Battle

Birth today, death alongside it

Attempting the impossible to save

That one life not worthy of the grim reaper

Ultimate thoughts of the end

But life brews around the corner

Enjoyment and gratitude that a day passes

And you can see yourself walking into another year

Concentrate you are one with the world

And you walk the surface

Are you at peace with what you have?

You look for wrinkles that have come and gone

Frowns looked upon as just a mere waste of time and space

Tread and chase you because they need you

Run towards what will be noted as overjoy

Overjoy that you are smiling all the way to the bank of contentment

That just happiness makes you smile

Death creeping but in despair as you live on

Who is the greatest now?

I guess I won this one because I see me living on another year

My greatest gift is me to me and death I am not ready yet

The Light

Minutes may pass but the thoughts of you linger on

Attempting to be what I am not has never played in my favour

The one thing that is certain is that the foreseen is now just a second away

Living with the thought that you are not a fragment of my need is undeniably not livable

Placement of the way I feel about me has got me pondering

Is this the way it’s supposed to be or just a figment of my imagination

We place ourselves in the mist of despair

And unwarranted the true essence of our being

I found such happiness and it feels un-doubtingly out of this world

Just a day in my shoes could lead to opportunity let lose

Expecting simple arrest of how I feel has not been bliss but enjoyable nightmare

My world seems to go beyond the IF

And transcended into an alien plant in its own homegrown surroundings

Keep moving forward and maybe the light will find me

That untainted light of you by my side

Truth come close home within me is where you belong

But who are you to me but that light that I long for
