inner peace: a reminder

21/11/16, 9.14pm

nobody said it was easy
but nobody told you it would be this tough either
sometimes, you think you can't hold on
you think you will never get your life back together
you think it'll be better if you just let go
of everything that you've been holding onto all this while
but you're wrong
you're entirely mistaken
for there is always a silver lining behind every cloud
believe in it, even though you can't see it
it's not physical, it's spiritual
it's something you need to have faith in
but before that, have faith in yourself
gain courage in whatever way possible
talk to people
spend more time with positive company
give smiles without expecting any in return
and maybe then, you will realise
that life has got so much more to offer
even when you feel it's being so unfair to you
it's just building you into someone you never knew you could turn into
not a beast
not a monster
but a whole new different person
far more stronger than you once were
and then you'll realise
that you've made it, even though you've crossed your limits

have a little more faith.
build it day by day.
someday, it'll be enough.

close your eyes,
breathe.

distance means nothing

because when the sun shuts down
there's nothing my mind can envision
with the exception of the light i see
when your eyes brighten and your smile broadens

as time pauses at that moment
i'm sure nothing is as important, as
being with someone giving off a peaceful, positive vibe
in the arms you can safely call home, even when distant

or as the waves crash on the beach
and i feel it caress my two left feet
it's either i hear it whisper softly a familiar name
or it screams and howls all the faults i have made

the heart decides to stop pumping blood
the brain decides to stop generating thoughts
but the soul still recognizes the other saint
the one who was always there, or what you call
a soulmate

the other soul has managed to grow flowers
in the darkest corners of the unbeating heart
and the flowers soon gave off enough vibes
for the heart to continue being alive

though it isn't perfect, it malfunctions sometimes
it still beats as one, with the other
and that is why when one is lost
one still finds the other, in a way or another

never changed

10/2/14, 8.25pm

even when the leaves start falling
and it changes the mesmerizing view
please don't ever doubt
whether i'll still be loving you

for it is something that i'd do
for as long as i breathe, and heave
it doesn't matter if our world is crumbling
it isn't an excuse for either of us to leave

for every second i spend,
without you by my side
the wonderful moments we've shared
will always be playing at the back of my mind
(like a broken record)

those times from months, years ago
are still fresh in my mind
i know that these memories will continue to grow
until they give me shivers
even you don't know

i have loved you all these while
and i will continue to shower you with my love
because you've been the best
and the best is what you deserve

roses are red
violets are blue
you are so far away
yet i still love only you
