At times life dries out my soul,
making me feel like a dead piece of coal.
Not even a dying ember,
just as numb and cold as December.
As I lose all my hope to try,
it feels too much to even cry.

But no one has to know,
for I have always been alone in the snow.
I have seen the world nod,
to my perfected smiling facade.
'Cause the world neither needs coal,
nor cares of what it stole.

In a place where music doesn't reach,
or the light of love cannot breach,
I sit alone amidst the deafening noise,
that sounds very similar to my voice.
The one thing I cannot run away from,
which will never let me succumb.

The voice, my string of hope,
helps me tread the tightrope.
Says the cold doesn't set in,
when the spring's from within.
That I am my silver lining,
in this dome that's confining.

I have to be my own,
that, to me, the world cannot loan.
I am not a wavering flame,
or just another fleeting name.
I can defeat this murk,
by being my very own firework.— % &

Everytime I feel lost, I write. It gives me a sense of way. And a tinge of confidence that I am not all lost. That there's still something that I can do. I can write.

Is that a rainbow in my mirror,
or is it just my smile, I wonder.
I look happy like a kid,
smiling ear to ear for no apparent reason.
Dancing my way through the day,
I might look crazy to you.
But trust me I am at my best,
'cause that's what happens when happiness comes from within.

Don't let your fear of demons stop you from lighting a candle.

The sky grew dark,
shining with its lightning spark.
The heavenly pouring water,
tuned my heart to its rhythmic patter.
The aroused ground let out,
An earthy aroma to soothe the distraught.

The breezy air made me feel whole,
reaching deep into the crevices of my soul.
To the warmth of the fire I surrender,
my heart filled with mother's wonder.
All the nature's elements striving to attain,
a stunning masterpiece, the rain.

Starting to work toward
something you don't have is
always better than wishing
you had it.

Sometimes life dries you out. Take all that heat and shoot up in life like a popcorn!

And that's all I need.
