Here’s to new beginnings
for one more time
another try to succeed
another try to survive

Need to reform, no excuses
nothing to complain for
the obstacles from the past
can hold me back no more

I ‘ll put myself together
I ‘ll get on track
this is a promise to myself
there’s no going back

Tough (Josie’s Apology)

bad timing, break up, breaking up, breakups, conflict, life, relationships

It’s tough to break up
even if it’s the right thing to do
when saying “this can’t go on”
some guilt is overcoming you

She’s too good to deserve this
and I ‘m too bad to deserve her
and this conflict can get disturbing
unless I get to tell her

Perhaps it’s bad timing for me
perhaps it’s just me being too demanding
either way this can’t go on like this
it’s always tough to be the one ending

… it! Sorry Josie!

The Last Walk VI: Aftermath I

instinct, last walk, life, rip, xen

Accepting that someone has gone away forever
takes years of inner grief and recovering from the shock
but you really have no other choice but just remember
the good times on which your mind automatically puts a lock

And once this lock applies you never forget
they just keep coming back at you at times
not necessarily a bad thing to happen so no regret
but it feels weird and sometimes brings cries

Come to think of it there’s no harm on me
that last walk has been for 6 years a motivation
and even though I haven’t done anything to show me
at least I remember our last day of pure inspiration

And now it’s starting to push me into new beginnings
but there’s no pressure or false persuasion of mind
perhaps if I push a bit will lead to a few winnings
this optimistic sense of hope, is what I need to find

The last walk remains deep inside as an aftershock
it may be frozen for now but it will come back up
I can feel it already starting to push away shellshock
point is I haven’t reached the point yet to give up

Replanning

You ‘ve failed to move on
for years and years now
and you are still holding on
still trying to make it somehow

Have you considered changing course?
seems like you are heading wrong
of all your beliefs, do’s and don’ts
continuous adaptation should be on top

Don’t force yourself not to let go
changing plans doesn’t mean giving up
you need to be adaptable you know
if moving on keeps failing try moving up

You feel great when you are at it
it rarely fails to displease you
you know there’s nothing more candit
especially when the one is with you

You are acting like an animal
your mind gets drunk by your senses
you are indeed an animal
right from the point it commences

It doesn’t change from being physical
you can’t remember your first time anymore
you can’t say it has become rather typical
especially when the one is coming back for more

A description doesn’t need to be
nor does need to be communicated
it’s something personal and unique
when the one doesn’t say it’s complicated

Addiction

I said I won’t do it again
Yet here I am coming back
doing what I said I won’t do again
feeling guilty after I ‘m done

Looking for the right excuses
to convince myself this one’s the last
but who am I really kidding
this happened hundreds of times in the past

it’s hard for me to understand
that even though I know it will return
there’s nothing I can do to stop
I can’t control myself I give in for another turn

it’s another battle I need to fight
and I need to keep fighting until I win
until I am strong enough to turn away
and never ever again give in

I seek no revenge for it is always my mistake
That I haven’t considered that happening
Instead,
I learn from it and move on

In this life,
Chances are,
I‘ll be in a similar situation sooner than I will most likely foresee

After all,
Everything is a matter of management
And in order to manage a situation
You have to know beforehand and be ready
For all possible and impossible outcomes

Stress of Loneliness

changes, learning, life, life goals, loneliness, people, stress

I ‘ve heard about loneliness
Once upon a time in life
They said it’s bad to be alone
No one wants that either

I ‘ve travelled through mindsets
And found out about that fear
Everyone is alone in the end
why everyone is afraid of accepting it?

And now, I can’t be alone
I cannot be alone

Life Routine Tough Luck

31 Monday Jul 2017

It always happens at the right time
the bad, the lucky one, the consequence
and sometimes you feel lucky to be alive
because of someone else’s misfortune
Life

You will have the secret wish of getting lucky
you will not foresee the bad coming at you
you will only learn by getting your hands dirty
and by then you won’t care about it anymore
Routine

Sometimes you are so naive it doesn’t come to mind
that things can get better or worse or lift off
the only thing that never thought would leave me
got up and just like that, it flew off
Tough

It’s a close call to some but clear to some others
when you stand before the unexpected you must act fast
and if things go your way you win or at least don’t lose
but when all goes wrong you get angry and swear at that
Luck

Set Him Free

He’s back at the worst he’s ever been
and he’s getting worse by the day
no matter what I try to say to him
he interprets everything in his own way

He’s lost inside his own thoughts
thinking he’s out of his mind
he can’t stop thinking of his loss
nor find peace of any sort of kind

I ‘m not sure how can I help him
it’s almost impossible to convince
if only I could find a way to get him
understand everyone’s life is like this

What if he’s really out of his mind?
what can I do to save his life driven in despair?
As soon as possible I really need to find
a way out for him that will set him free! I swear!
