Lord Above: A Prayer

Lord Above, thank you for watching over me, when I am losing my way, My soul hurts sometimes, far worse than my bones, I cannot think, I cannot seem to feel whole again Yet, when I get down on knees to pray, You listen. My thoughts spill over, my soul pieces itself back together, You … Continue reading Lord Above: A Prayer

We are all waiting for something.

Note to Self

My happiness is my own and no one else's. I'll hold on to my dreams without losing my senses. I'm dragging through the dirt, But I am counting the stars.

Sometimes it turns out great---you sing for the first time at a karaoke … Continue reading What’s holding you back?

How are You?

Here's a poem I wrote recently about a person's introspection of their physical beauty:   I am Beautiful, aren't I? I have symmetric eyebrows and perfect teeth, My nose is set right at the middle, I have tiny nostrils, even when I breathe. My lips are smooth, full and shapely, They can be any colour … Continue reading How are You?

If you did, please don't let the opinions of other people influence you in any way. Believe me, being underestimated is the best tool one can have at their disposal. It may even help you … Continue reading Dark Horse
