Letter To a Friend: You Are The Ocean

Life is like the ocean

Some days you'll find yourself just below the surface

Watching as the sunlight amuses itself atop the waves

And then there're days you'll find yourself

At the darkest end

Swimming between rocks

As you continue to make your way

Some days you'll be the predator

Some days you'll end up the prey

The tides will dance high and low

But you continue to find your way

There are days the current will seem so strong

Almost as though it's driving you out

But the only way out is to go in

To a place of endless light and love

There are days you'll feel so distant 

From all that you see around

But if you're still and quiet enough

A new treasure is to be found

You are an extension of all that is

All that is an extension of you

You are the wave

You are the ocean

You are life within the blue.

When we feel

Planked blankly in perfect vespertide

A body aloof its time

Desperate hands ached to embrace & nurture, a nebula of lies.

What can't be held in hands,

Is it safe to be cradled in mind?

When gut affirms in bellows, what's hidden amidst its walls

Do we continue our quest, or do we comply?

When we feel, should we reveal or should we hide?

These cogent sensualities, I can't reckon they're for keeps,

They aren't safe with you, neither are they safe with me.

Soliloquies are the crutches on which i heavily rely,

To steer psyche's trajectory,

To give me peace of mind.

Heavily,

They bury me,

Come and take what's yours.

I might mess around and kill them,

If they don't kill me first.

Life Is Crazy

                                                                                      Life is crazy:

It is a whirlwind of possibilities

Unfolding in the natural order of chaos;

that is its beauty,

that is the suffering.

Life is energy expressing itself

Life is a story you choose to tell yourself

Life is everything

Life is nothing

Life is anything you want it to be

Life is you

Life is me.

Life is the exact moment you hold a baby's smile with your eyes,

The flap of a butterfly's wings,

Falling sun rays like snowflakes

Playing hide-and-go-seek between dancing leaves.

Life is all that lies ahead of us

Behind us

and in-between.

Life is all you see behind a blink

None of this

But all that you choose to believe;

Life is anything you want it to be

Life is anything YOU want it to be.
