ticking off
what's been deferring.
a little old plans,
this time finishing
before beginning.

-

My screams are knocking from inside.
They want to let the shame, fear, and guilt
out into the real.

-

how does it feel
to fire the bridge
once you cherished
like a sacred bond?

all those efforts
to keep it alive, now,
makes no sense.

if it's meant to go,
it better go
the right way.

-

like an echo, in the forest
the opportunity will come around
like a tide, in the ocean
the opportunity will ebb and flow
like a rainbow, after the storm
the opportunity will be found

-

The man beside her
never asked
what it meant
to let go.

-

you join a hood
hoping one hop
for every three rungs,
and, you realize -
you ain't climbing up
just sinking down slow

hopes thinning
doubts growing
blues crawling
silence wrapping

are you?
if you are, can you?
if you can, will you?
if you will -
will that make you happy?
now... are you?

-

multitasking is more like
a two timing - an injustice to both,
and a betrayal of focus

-

// between traps//

chances are never
what they claim to be
they're never true,
not here, atleast.

you before, you after
this book
bridges three minds

-

// you stood up for yourself //

your heart is that glass,
that breaks and cuts deep;
until every shard echoes justice,
until every crack takes revenge.
you're not that mirror,
you don't reflect anymore;
you're revealing,
for the very first time,
yourself, deliberately.
and in that, you stand
u n b r o k e n.
