Sometimes life throws hard times at us. At those times, we must never forget who we are and what we strive for. Never forget your dreams.

I Hate the Word Reality [Poem]

I used to write about whatever came to mind
And whatever I thought of, but those times have changed
It used to be that I'd search all day, but could never find
Something as deep and relevant and deranged

As life in the real world,
I never thought that this is what I'd say
But now, I know, the truth is what you don't want,
and it never really goes your way

I still don't believe it
But when it's right in front of your face
There's no way to ignore it
And in the end, all one asks for is some space

However, I still hate the word reality
It really shouldn't be so
It shouldn't really exist
But I guess, without it, it would be impossible

To live in this so called world of reality
I still don't believe in certain things
Like myself, and my abilities
But I now know what exactly reality is

I suppose without reality,
I'd never know my true ability
As a person, as a soul
I guess I should believe in the world as a whole

Because everything is fast moving
And everything is connected
By the threads of this so-called reality
And everything will change, but everything remains the same

Feeling of Failure [Poem]

How can I go on going like this?
How much longer can I stress?
I cry every night
Hoping there will be a brand new sight

I feel as though
I've failed at myself, I've fallen too low
I feel as though I've failed the ones I've loved
And at achieving what I have always dreamed of

There's nothing more I can do
Oh what should I do, there's nothing I tell you
There's nothing more that I can see
There's nothing more that I can be, anymore

Failure is the worst condition
That one can have with pure recognition
I have thus learned, with this obvious prediction
One can make the mistake of too deeply believing in oneself

And that pride can hurt them, no matter what
It always seems as though we hide from ourselves
Isn't there anything I can do?
No, there certainly is not a single doubt

I have crashed and hit the bottom
I cannot forget what I've not accomplished
Failing is the worst thing I could have ever done
It's not the feeling that one would choose

But I will overpower the feeling
I will not allow the feeling
Of Failure
Rule over me!

Worrying [Poem]

Why are you worrying so much?
It makes me wonder what is wrong
Why are you so concerned about time and things
When worrying only worsens your health

I've realized to learn
Than worrying does no good
You have to trust in others
As well as yourself

If you are ever late
For an important date
Just smile and remember
There are bigger things in life

That need more attention than you think
So darling do not worry
Care about the things you want to care about
And forget everything else

Just refrain that worrying
Really does no good
It just makes you worry even more
Sometimes you just have to go with the flow

And if you're ever late
And time is not on your side
Always remember...
That there will be an understanding between us

So darling, just don't worry~

~Rebirth of Soul~ [challenge]

Poem for Rebirth of Soul's challenge. I hope you like it!

Your being is who you are
Who you are, is what you do and say and feel
How you react is the essence of your being
If you ever lose who you are, there is always a hope of returning

You can find the light to lead the way
To yourself again, even if you've lost it
Because you can be reborn again
And always learn your way

For life of rebirth is a journey, not the destination

To be reborn from the ashes and rise above, like a phoenix
Is to once again find your soul
And know who you are again
Even if... you got lost on the way

You can always refill your essence, your aura
Like an overflowing fountain
And once again find yourself... even if you're lost

Perpetual Time [Poem]

It's scary how one can lose track of time
The hands of fate slowly ticking away
Can go by so quickly
When one doesn't even have to look at the clock

Time goes by relentlessly
Uncertainty mocks our very lives
We cannot possibly measure
The amount of value in life

It's scary how one can lose track of time
When you don't look at the clock for hours
Until you see and time has mercilessly passed you by
You realize then you have no time left...

Don't let time pass you by
Don't let time give you away
Don't let time stare right at you
And not even blink an eye

Uncertainty mocks our very lives
We know not the value of life
It's scary how one can lose track of time
The hands of fate go relentlessly down...

Further down and down and down!

It's scary how one can lose track of time
Don't let it pass you by
Don't let time let your life slip by
Without doing what you needed to

Don't let time mock at you
Don't let time get the best of you
Don't let time pass you by

Don't let time stare right at you
And not even blink an eye!
