She sees me through a screen
But she sees straight into my soul
She hears me through a speaker
But she hears things I’m too scared to say
She cannot touch me
But she touches my heart like nothing else
-
Her body got her my attention
Her energy got her my appreciation
Her ambition got her my admiration
Her humor got her my adoration
Her passion got her my attraction
Her empathy got her my affection
Her reciprocation got her my love
Her love got her my allegiance-
Expression of ideas
Disclosure of secrets
Sharing of emotions
Declaration of intentions
Showcase of wisdom
All through a string of words
Writing is an art and a skill-
When you realize that
You can't know everyone
You can't please everyone
You can't be friends with everyone
You can't make good impressions on everyone
And still enjoy life to it's fullest
Is when you have achieved
True enlightenment-
Mature enough to be motivated,
Motivated enough to be driven,
Driven enough to be successful,
And successful enough to be mature-
Yesterday someone asked me
"Where does your hope come from? Religion? Karma? Law? Family? Significant other?"
I replied
"Belief in myself"-
The rocks that go through the most intense pressure in the earth
Turn out to be the most beautiful diamonds in the world
And you already are a gem
To this community of writers
Don't be afraid to sift through the coal and get your hands a little dirty
Only then will you find the mighty and majestic diamond
That will someday be prized as
The Crown Jewel-
They would be our very best friends
Absorbing our negative emotions
And giving us happy memories-
