I am open for your Interpretation

This emotional rhythm flows
Upon sentimental cries for new life
Epitomizing the heart
Of all it’s dreamy fulfillments
In these expectations
Newly formed
Into a motivational thrust
Powered in these futuristic endeavors
Born into the innovation of forward mobility

And within this story
A non fictional account
Of fictional dreams
Innovational imageries
Inspiring to travel
Even beyond my own expectations

An explorer of hope I must be
In the very art of my own being
Battling against this inner pain
Expressing this outward pouring
With every ounce of this heart and soul
As I declare war against any pain forthcoming

And with that
Never shall I grovel
Or fall upon these knees
Begging, Pleading, Forcing
Something with no interest
No motivation, Nothing
Never shall I be the brunt of a pauper’s gratification, No

So where do I go?
Down is way too low
Up is just right
As long as I keep going
Ignoring this fear of heights
As I fly right into the stars
Till my eyes become indigenous within it’s dreams

Future, Don’t be a stranger
Make yourself at home
Hold these ambitions tightly
Never let them go
As impossible becomes possible
For dreamers like me

You have to go negativity, You have to go depression
No longer shall I let you ruin my life
No longer is my soul your trophy
To parade around these thoughts
Like a complete asinine
In the hole for which you muck into
While euphorically birthing doubt
In this once naïve mind

No more!

Yet, Can I keep fighting?
Who knows me for who I truly am?
So hard to explain myself
When I hide so well

Breathing in
Exhaling out
Looking over towards the horizon
Making an attempt
To go places for which I never knew existed

I can do this
I have to do this
For the first of me, To the second that is me
And who knows for the third who could be me

What does that mean?
Perhaps maybe I could be the only one who will ever know
Or can someone figure out this riddle within my own infinite dwelling?
That is alive and well for the honor of ones own interpretation

Open me up
And I shall embrace the spirit within you

Child

This was so emotional for me to write

Dedicated to any child who endures loneliness, Social anxiety and depression

Child with those hidden tears
Know that I am familiar with your pain
The silence, The emptiness
The fear that grows within

I myself grew up hidden
As I was the best
In the art of disappearing
Knew how to be a ghost
When feeling like an alien
In this world so different from us

Child, Please live life
Live life to the fullest and beyond
Never do I want to see you face down
In the trials of life’s regrets

Be one with yourself
Have fun, Enjoy yourself
Kill all negativity

Child, The more you grow with this disease
The bigger the misery will get
Please, Do your best to fight it now
Because if you don’t do anything
It will become stronger than you could of ever imagined

Child, Your future is bright
You just have to trust your own dreams
I promise all will be alright
Smile, Rejoice be at peace

Child, The world is within your grasp
So grab a hold of it
And explore it all at will
Take in the knowledge of this very journey
And grow mightily
Into a strong happy free young man

Child, Love yourself
And all will love you

I know there is so much pain inside
And everything that appears easy to most
Seems to be harder for you
Just trust and believe in your own heart
And your mind will flow peacefully through

Please, Do better than me
That is all I ask of you
