Untitled Life

It's tiring, exhausting
Strained relationships unable to let go
Left are many in the years of life
Better that, than struggle survival

But there is one, that is of a strong bond
Love, a word of infinite meaning
Feels like a song, never ending
A ballad of emotions, dance of beauty

Thoughts never built before
Emotions that were believed to be non existent, until now
Sensations that defined everything denied
Life never felt so alive...

Poetry intertwined to form a story
Happiness intervened through melancholy
Tears were not bad anymore,
Until the sounds of pain fell through

Strained relationships of love,
Wandering thoughts to find a way
Treacherous as it is,
The journey through continuous waterfalls

Not the count of tears, the pain of cries
The sounds of laughter that is of a thousand radiant stars
At the end of it, the falls unite the ocean

A journey worth taking, a life worth loving
Relationships of love, undefined yet infinite meanings
Life of love, the love of life
Untitled, with infinite meanings

My Life, that was never Mine

What do I see, that I saw
Life that was built on fantasies
My world as it appeared
The journey that ultimately manifested

Striving to work toward the life I saw
Foregoing the joys in the life that was
Forgetting this is life too, today,
Tomorrow looked prettier and I worked a little harder

What did I gain, that I had assumed lost
Tunes and it's lyrics that did not sync
Life and it's story that belonged to me,
That I longed for it to weave together

Belonged to another was mine,
All that was mine, I refused to accept
What the world was, I yearned for
As the world continued to seek mine

Hoping for happiness, discontent with satisfaction
Defined not by smiles that bring tears
Nor loud laughter that never seized
I look back today, what do I see?

Life filled with joy, World discontent with their own
Seeking the lyrics for my tune,
Forgetting that what was my own, 

Words and music that formed a song

I look back... I see the lives
Of missed happiness, Unaccepted love
Longing moments, uncherished memories
Life that was my own, that never belonged to me...

Fly Away Home

I've left my nest and flown far
I look back hoping to see my future
A ray of hope, a silver lining
A future that gives me my nest

Hopes Together

We are asking you

The request for you to say yes

We yearn for that day

That truly brings us together

We love you, we respect you

Moments with you are cherished,

Moments to be with you are dreamed

And yet, you refuse

One nod, one smile, one yes

A hope still burning wild in us

We look to you with eyes filled with dreams

For you to see it, for you to accept it

We know it is difficult for you

A life lived too long this way

For you don't know of life our way

And yet, we know it is not impossible for you

The world knows it, accepts it

It has been done, 

Even when you say no

But we wait..we wait because of our hope

No, we don't need you

We dont need your nod or your smile

We want you, because we know

We are because of you

We stand tall and speak to you

Because you showed us how

You taught us to have strength

Values that we should believe in

So here we are, asking you

Rooted in our values, our strength,

Our love.

With hopes still burning wild in us

For one nod, one smile, one yes from you.
