Dare


Are you in middle of nowhere? Indecisive about which path to take?
Flipping a coin or tossing dice; praying to hear from the diviner?
Is something holding your thought, freezing your legs
Is there log in your way; a boulder in your tunnel
What is sinking you to the depth?

Are you waiting for a magic wand or a silky road?
Are you dreaming of the wishing star?
The deafening trumpets of Jericho maybe?
Are you scared of licking the bitter bile of defeat?
Are you scared of losing or just too lazy to move?

My dear friend, I dare you take that bold step, step into the unknown
The winds will always whisper; howling your failures, whistling your success 
Chest out, move out, speak your heart out; I dare you
Like the eye of a hurricane the stormy vultures will circle the skies
And like the opened gates of hell, a horde of troubles will rage your way

But my dear friend; in weakness find strength
In death find life, in poverty, riches; face your demons square  
I dare you; move on, march to the skies if that’s your dream
Don’t waver or give in to despair, till the farms of Hades if you have to 
If you can’t run, walk, if you can’t walk, crawl, if you can’t crawl, roll

The world of dreams belong to those who dare.
It’s a world for visionaries, I dare you, dream!
Don’t relent on your dreams, move out of your comfy zone; wake with a smile
Walk on fire if it burns, swim in ice if it bites; keep moving, keep fighting 
Scream if you have to, but scream with a dream and wake with a smile. I dare you!!!

Remember

The leaves wilt Soon the season will tilt The world will cease to a halt A new beginning glim in sight The past shakes In the distance, yesterday fades Slowing dying in noon’s shade Disappearing into the distance cascade We match forward Ne're turning around, only onward But my minds eye doesn't fail I recall every detail From hello to adios Through hug to lies From kiss to kicks Warm hands to cold pecks We watched the sun set on the horizon Too bad I allowed it to set on our belonging Without an anchor we drifted into comparison And lost all sense of loving I'm not asking for a third chance Neither am I asking for another dance True I dreaming of an awakening glace But I only ask, you remember the opening fence

Black hole

Why does it hurt so much? Why does every waking moment feel like an endless torture  The deafening screams of my heart is silent to all  None hears me, none connects with me, none feels me    I try to hold a smile but it’s a mirage, blanketing my sorrow  I try to hold myself, but I’m hollow  I see laughter all around me, but none with me  Eyes stare but only through me    They say there is light at the end of a tunnel  This is no tunnel I am falling, I keep falling, deep into the abyss I keep falling  Into a black hole    I feel the weight of every tic, every toc  My eyes are dried out, every tear drop burns  My hopes dashed, my dreams, a waking nightmare  The canvas of my life is blackened out   My hands are stretched out Screaming for someone to reach out, anyone?  Praying to the endless, crying to be pulled from this quicksand  But my prayers are unheard and I’m hanging by a thread       MannyUchiha

Thank you Mum, I Iove you

She says I was gifted from heaven An answer to a prayer; a blessing from the most high That drew a smile, got her singing like she was high Made her dance from dawn till dawn But she couldn’t be more wrong   For I am the one who struck a pot of gold To have you gifted to me, born to you To experience the essence of your immortalised love From where do I begin, which memory do I recall first? Which hug do I ping as the warmest? The motivation, the support, the love, OMG the food I couldn’t list all even if I had an ocean of ink I remember the sacrifices you made for me Ensuring I never went to bed hungry Stayed by my side when I was unwell, pampered me like a prince And kissed me good night when I drifted into dreams I’m sorry for the hell I rained on you   I thought you were nag bug, a leech to my peace, scolded me because you could I didn’t get it then; wish I did but now I do and I'm glad you did I know you forgave, you forgot but I haven’t, I’m sorry
