STARS
I stand underneath a starry sky,
Mesmerized by the sight above me,
The night sky is so clear tonight,
The stars are shining in their full glory.

Stars, gentle reminders of God's love for me,
The situation may seem dismal,
But tiny pockets of hope always burst through in form of stars

SURRENDER
Oh sweet surrender!
Thats all I feel
The rain has come
Relief at last I am free
The cool breeze breathes life into me
My dying soul drinks in the rainwater
I was once like the dry desert sand
But now I am a damp rainforest floor
Freedom comes through the mere patter of raindrops
Pitter patter I am alive.
Free and alive in the rain

UNTITLED
Loud music blasts between my ears
In the hope thst the noise shall silence the voice of turmoil,
This isbut futile as its has to be heard,
My struggle for sanity and balance continues

Why does this never end?
When I thought I was past this
It comes back to haunt me
Like a zit that comes to the same spot

All the remedies I tried only temporary,
I seek a permanent solution,
My search fruitless thus far,
Hope of success diminishing
Like the rays of the setting sun

Sad, isnt but thats reality,
Awake from your slumber,
Fantasy can only take you so far
Like a drug one high and youre hooked

Is there a rehab for this addiction?
Can anyone enrol me int he school of reality,
I need a booster shot of reality,
I need to leave the Egypt of fantasia
To arrive at the Canaan of reality

COMPLEXITY
Thoughts criss-crossing in my head,
Confusing, consuming leaving me frustrated,
Life has suddenly become complex
Simplicity is alas a thing of the past.
A time long forgotten, yet yearned for.

How did I get here?
I know not nor do I remember,
The paths that led me here
All these questions and doubts
None of which are answered

A gentle breeze wafts in,
Soft music fills the air
Peace slowly enters my soul
Tranquility reigns supreme
Clarity is restored

Simplicity is in my hands
I have the power
I had it all along
Only I had forgotten so.

PERCEPTIONS
Perceptions are alot like rose bushes
We ignore the thorns and focus on the bloomed roses,
Forgetting that each rose starts life as a thorn
Time determines when the rose will burst forth
Be patient with the thorns in your life the are roses in waiting
Time will tell when they will bloom.
