Advice from a kid.
-What is it that you feel?
-Hatred inside my heart
-Why such a thing you keep?
-Because I have lost my light
That once filled me despite
How dark it ever got
-You know I’m just a kid
Doesn’t mean I can’t be right
Life used to be so simple
-We didn’t have to fight
What game we’d play tomorrow?
Is what little made us fret
-In the the arms of our parents
We spent the safest nights
When whatever we imagined
Was for me the life i got
-When the only thing that matterd
Was what of ourselves we thought
-When from so much laughter
Our little Tummy hurt
-When so much simpler things
Created smiles so bright
-You know I’m just a kid
Doesn’t mean I can’t be right
I always had a spark
Whenever I lost my light
So me please don’t forget
To sometimes let me out
So together we can fill
With happiness
Our heart a lot
Advice from a kid to -himself as- a grown up
Happiness.
Embarked on a journey
To finally be happy
But the soul who was searching
Was in too much of a worry
It was too busy searching
Forgot to open its eyes
So they missed happiness by the corner
giving away some smiles
Stop waiting for the magic
Stop trying so damn hard
Try enjoying whatever fragments
Of happiness that you can find
It’s in the quite night
Spent under a blanket
Breathing life into adventures
Using only a flashlight
It’s in the feeling you get
When you have laughed so hard
When smiles fill in the room
It is truly divine art
It’s when you find yourself
It’s when light is your heart
It’s the little moments
What life is all about
My hero.
O my knight in shining armor
My protector from every fright
O my hero without a cape
Before I even saw the light
You, whom I always admire
You’ve been by my side in every quagmire
You have forgotten more about how many
Times you have helped me already
Than anyone will ever be able to keep me
As you do my hero so strong and so steady
Even if at one point dad replaced the word daddy
My love for you still as strong as it can be
You gave up sleep so I can sleep soundly
You gave up rest so I can rest with no worry
All I want is to someday give back
A fraction of what you have given me
What really fills my heart with delight
Is to see that smile on your face worry-free
I want you my hero of me to be proud
And make you happy, ‘Tis this what I vowed
For us I know you sacrificed a great deal
I am grateful for every drop of blood, sweat and tear
For every kiss and hug I needed to heal
For every fight you endured to make our haven real
Now it is my turn to make my hero happy
Show you how strong you made me and that now I am ready
To be the one this time to keep you strong and steady
See the look on your face when you hear “Granddaddy !”
I guess in short what I mean is that I
your champ, your baby, love you so much my daddy
Friendship.
Be careful for who you may
Unintentionally push away
That you don’t lose real friends
Is what for you my dear I pray
When ‘tis a good day
Don’t forget to be considerate
When a bad day is on the way
next to you I’m sure they’ll stay
If that precious gem
one day you had sadly lost
Just a simple sorry
for sure
won’t cover the cost
That day when you have lost
Some great women or men
When eyes don’t even look
When everybody plays pretend
It is in that moment you’ll know
nothing’s the same again
When regret is of no use
When everyone is tossing lies
So if you’re mad forgive
If you wronged apologize
If the problem is neglect
A true friendship
Everyone has to protect
For no attached souls with an endless love supply
Should ever know the pain of a last damned goodbye
Admire
I am not the most optimistic man in the world, I admit.
My faith in others reached levels so low, never before it has hit.
And with every day that passes by, I am more convinced that love & beauty in this world have lost their way.
a long time ago.
Or maybe they ran?
Maybe they left because hearts slowly turned into stone, and they have lost their home.
as they watched it turn grey, gloomy and cold.
They had to leave because hatred and cruelty sent
an eviction letter, and for the right price that house will be sold.
Yet when I roam the dark back streets of life on a bleak winter day, I
sometimes stumble upon a tiny rose that rose from a crevice in the cold sidewalk floor.
Just sitting there so gracefully and peaceful.
With a sent so heavenly and pure, it spreads happiness all around it’s home.
Such a beautiful and fragile thing makes me realize there is still hope.
And that in every person’s chest there is still a warming fire.
So I just stand there, for a moment, and I can’t help but to admire.
