"Old & Left Alone"

Empty rooms & broken heart,
Lots of memories, lots of #pain.

My life was an illusion,
Full of distress & confusion,
Unfulfilled promises & dreams.

What do I live for?
What's the point?

Many questions without answers!
I didn't wanna be here at all.

#Pain in his eyes talked
Just for a while

He wanted time to stop
The ache vanish in a puff
So, I pressed my lips, onto his

Thank you so much🙏🙏

Words begin to fade and #wane
Inner noise explodes

Maybe it’s me becoming a little insane
When words spread doubt in truckloads

The Moons poetry understands this pain
Its layers of shadows sigh to me in codes

I was drowning and about to die
When I suddenly saw the Sunshine
Glittering under the water

Then, I decided to come up for air again

Desperation fades away
On the #cusp of hope

Gonna make my country
Great again
You, people, will work day & night
For my country to be great again
You'll suffer poverty & hunger
While I discover what's there on #Mars
For the country to be great again

As I'm the one & only
King, dictator & predator
😜

She asked me about love. I said:
"It's for the brave only
Who give generously
Who buy but never sell

It's kindness, tenderness and liveliness

It's sincerity & loyalty

And for the heart,
It's water & #air
Medicine & cure
Brightness & light."

Trying to keep a distance
Given all the difference
T'was just an #illicit glance
Widely opening the entrance
#Bewitched by her eyes
Don't know shall I laugh or cry,
To take a deep breath or sigh?
Is it love at first sight,
knowing where to bite?
Shall I give in or fight?
Okay, I'm alright.

She was breathing heavily till my hand grabbed hers. & when her breath steadied, I thought I might get out for a cigarette.
But I threw it, half burnt, & turned back to find her gone, as if she was waiting for me to go out to surrender her soul.
It was the #last time we met.

Didn't mean any racial census. What I mean is the face looks so beautiful when the actions are good and kind, no matter of colors or any standards of beauty..

No #matter
Black or white,
Your face is a #reflection
Of your action.
Be kind & you'll always shine!

Books teach us about worlds we’ve never seen; friends teach us about worlds within us. Blessed to have both in my life.

#BookWriting #WritersLife #FriendshipMatters #AmWriting #CreativeJourney #GratefulHeart

The core #option
Is to stick to our humanity
And whatever's #relevant

As we're all humans
Whether similar or different

That's to help #achieve
A better future for our children & descendants

Thank you so much, Kelly!🙏🙏🌹
Glad you liked it.

In my ocean of thoughts
Where the waves were too strong,
I was drowning back in time
When all mankind lived as one big family.

I settled deep down & didn't have the nerve to swim back to the shore of ugly #reality.

"Just leave me alone drowning in my dream ocean!"

#vss365

Me and you
Us and them

Difference's never
Been an #issue

Each is a flower
Of unique fragrance
From the same origin:
Mud & water

Break that wall
Be kind to all
Lend a hand to those who fall
We're all humans
Who rise & fall

For living as one
Is the highest #goal

It's a new day,
Another working day,
To move from peace to noisy streets.
Roads are blocked
By means of
#transport,
Deafening horns of automobiles,
Headache & high blood pressure before even reaching your work.

Yet, you have to be #number one in doing your job without a single mistake.

Rockets
Air strikes
Tanks & cannons
Even WMD were used

The city's completely demolished.
Thousands of innocents were killed.
But people of the city insisted to stay to defend their city & own existence, while the aggressors accused them of commiting acts of #terror.

I've been waiting for the rain
To wash my soul's stain
To remind me again & again
That our dreams won't go in vain
As the sun always shines
After rain

So, why wearing a #raincoat ?

A speedy dash
Into the trash
To get some cash
All found is dust & #ash
And a lingering #clash
Deep within
Should there be a twinkling flash

#vss365

They got ready to fight
Another battle between mind & heart
A #clash that ended with
Victory as both surendered to the fact
That harmony exists
When peace's at heart.

I had a date
With an #associate
A kind mate
She chose a fancy restaurant of a high rate

Earlier she came & had to wait
Facing a traffic jam that I hate
I was too late for the date

She left angrily after she paid the whole rate
I wonder if it was a bad or good fate? 🙃

I had an important date
It sounded so great
Thought it might change my fate
Had no choice to hesitate
But the jam made me wait
& there was no other gate
'Damn it, I hate being late'
I reached & we finally met
I felt the heavy climate
With a smile he had to #sublimate

It was a happy river
Flowing with a #sonorous sound
Makin' everything alive around
For the fish it was a playground
For the kids,the joy they found

Now contaminated & dry
No fish,no kids to play nearby

By #scrutiny
To be again happy
The river must be
& we have to try

It sometimes takes you down
Sometimes makes you high

Sometimes you laugh
Sometimes you cry

Sometimes you dive
Sometims you fly

Because this is life
#Capricious that never stops to lie.

#vss365

Desperate & blue
The sky's dark blue
Suddenly, a star down flew

It's a sign of hope, but what shall I do?
#Perhaps I should make a wish
Before the star goes swimming with the fish.

YouTube video by LeonardCohenVEVO Leonard Cohen - Bird On The Wire (Official Live in London 2008)

Couldn't #rein my desire
To be free I always aspire

Like a bird on the wire
Triggering evils to #conspire
To shoot me dead & put me on fire

But my wings are strong enough
To fly away from their fire

To rest & not to tire
On another bush or wire

youtu.be/BGvwvxA83Cs?...

Despite the heavy weight on my chest, a pile
I have the #potential to smile

It maybe my defending #style
To conquer negativity caused by the vile

To keep my heart, that's so fragile,
As safe as it could for a while

#vss365

Unwrap your heart,
Remove the love-resistant #wrapper,
Let the light penetrate and enjoy the #power of love!
