The Vault

a vault full of names, excited, projects, social media, wua, yeah

I have been looking for it for years
a name to be the umbrella of them all
it almost made me burst into tears
when I saw it written on the wall

It was so simple but never came to mind
the brainstorm did its work to set a trigger
but resulted in still needing a name to find
and never thought the answer was a lot simpler

The candidate names to be used became The Vault
and will be kept in there for future needs
everything needs a single name nowadays to be called
to end up on everyone’s smartphone news feeds

Changing Minds

change of mind, embracing growth, generation gap, instinct, know yourself, life, people, reality check, stuck in the old

Who would tell if things were all going wrong?
someone with nothing to lose or someone strong?
the answer is not always all that easy to say
it’s been a problem since ages ago up to this day

It’s an internal conflict whether to speak or not
people will judge and condemn you to fraud
for things they themselves have taught you all along
and no one wants to change that same old song

Here we are once again fighting for change of mind
more tired than ever and with almost blinded sight
for we are restless when it comes to making things better
all we ask for is provide some help to the implementer

Money won’t do it because it was never the incentive
a better place to be with people whose perspective
is to help each other to get up to the mountain peak
that not being the goal but succeed as a team, strong and weak

We Created Life II

creation, creativity, feelings, future, life, personal, poem, poetry, sooner than later, way forward, we created life

It came as a surprise even though it was not
the weather at this time was rather cold not hot
in the absence of sleep we had to rush
a false alarm but again it happened in a flash

Let alone the fact we expected this a bit later
life made its arrangements to come a little earlier
one of those moments you are out of control
there is no going back or even trying to stop

It’s the end of the year and made it through
no time now to lose by playing the fool
it should have been today yet no complains aside
and once again it feels we indeed created life

May all surprises like this one have a happy ending
making you forget all the time worth spending
as there is life now to make it keep on going
the journey is tough but definitely worth knowing

excited, fast, feelings, intuition, life, new plan, on the road again, personal, poetry, yeah

The schedule is quite busy
as always things are not really easy
they take time to be completed
and by then energy is depleted

I have been complaining for years
once again I have to face my fears
he’s coming soon to shake things up
a welcome surprise to bring up

Let’s see what the future will hold
hope not all things I ‘ve been told
ready to put the keys on the ignition
excited – for my only guide is my intuition

The Fear of Something New

31 Friday Oct 2025

art, beginnings, fear, feelings, inertia, life, motivation, personal, poetry, start anew

The plan has been made
everything has been thought of
all scenarios well played
almost nothing to be afraid of

Yet the actions have been delayed
the starting point is taking too long
it’s not a matter of being afraid
sense of commitment is not that strong

The principle is to start and fail fast
the lessons learned will get you there
the failure will be a thing of the past
in addition to the above you have to dare

Number Bias

decisions, dilemmas, feelings, life, numbers, personal, poetry, q

There is a dilemma in my mind
the answer is really not so hard to find
but the numbers lead me otherwise
the choice will show it’s not so wise

So there’s now this moving confict inside
wait or go with the numbers to decide
my instinct says to follow them blindly
they always get me somewhere nicely

Why does it have to be this way?
Why does money have to be in the way?
which priority should be set highest?
should I follow them or am I just biased?

There’s one more think to consider
which just might serve as the trigger
the outcome does not worth so much wait
the numbers are there, my choice to make

Digital Arena

always on the run, digital content, generation gap, instinct, know yourself, life, people, stress

You are a creator
a content creator
do you really create content?
or just reproducing content?
so is it creator or just curator?

Young man goals
and it shows
no strategy no purpose
old man thinks “circus”
exist on opposite poles

both may be right
each one’s insight
young man going with the times
the old one watches and cries
generations fight

a mouse on the mill
how does it feel ?
being in a never ending drift
creators eventually do shift
to another bigger mill

Legends Do Die

back to the beginning, concert, end of an era, full circle, heavy metal, legend, life, music, never say die, ozzy, rip

A legend may be dead but it isn’t really so
the shock of losing someone you don’t even know
he will live on and on through the music he shared
the entire world says goodbye to the one who dared

It really hits you when a legend dies I don’t know why
I guess it’s the realization that indeed legends do die
they mark the end of an era and they may rest in peace
but through their music they will forever give you bliss

A legend that admittedly is not a good example of a man
has managed through music to make almost everyone a fan
the entire world feels sorry and thankful at the same time
for the craziness and music that he’s given them through his life

It feels weird to feel the need to say a last goodbye to someone never met
yet that someone is a legend that his voice still reminds you how you felt
when you were a teenager, young or old in a state of madness or feeling void
his lyrics and music kept you sane and held you back from getting too paranoid

Back to the Beginning, Rest in Peace Legend!

Beautiful, concert, happy, live, music, new songs, yay

Showtime!
feels like going beyond the line
I have set in this lifetime of mine
as if I was doing this for the first time

Felt great!
went better than expected in a way
left me happy without anything to say
in a “I should do this more often” state

On it!
seems that I will do this for some more
and it’s not that I haven’t done it before
but I never got to the point that I own it

The Music in my Soul

28 Wednesday May 2025

a.l.i.n.e., Beautiful, creation, happy, mellow, music, new songs, voices

There are voices inside my head
but I never really listen to them
I tend to turn the other way instead
unless they whistle to me a music gem

Some people call this inspiration
and there will always be more
it’s just a form of beautiful creation
especially if never been heard before

The voices are the inspiration’s spark
they keep telling you things until you act
and when you get them out of the dark
they become a form of magnificent art

So much beautiful music out there
a lifetime is not enough to listen to it all
maybe it’s time to get back to where
I should let out the music in my soul

Let out the voices… The Music in my Soul
