To master my reality
I give it my all
To be one with nature
I obey natural laws
To experience this life
Of such pleasures and pain
To run in this race
Where winning is vain
To live like a fool
So eternally wise
To be loved unconditionally
Beyond my demise
All of these things
I hold in my heart
Creatively shaping
My collection of art

There are many ways
To be happy outside of dreams
For me,
I found mine in poetry.

The self we share
and the words we share
are the same selfies of our soul.

There is something
about you
No matter how hurt I am
No matter how many broken promises
I had to endure
No matter how many times I’ve fallen
That keeps me rising
There’s something about you
that is uniquely you
That’s why I love you.
