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

So much going on right now
I can’t believe it, I have to say “wow”
no matter how frightening this can be
it’s excitingly beautiful to say the least

Expected it or not I don’t know
planted, but who knew it would grow
felt great once and passed my mind
I really thought we created life

Still too early and cannot say much
time will tell and people will judge
we keep things the way we want to
this is the hard and fun part of improptu

Let’s see how we handle this and how it goes
where do we get from here nobody knows
we are at the root of something that is alive
the name “X” is on the table but will it thrive?

I Choose Not To…

better life, decisions, feelings, future, life, personal, poem, poetry, way forward

An opportunity has appeared
but I decided to not even try
as bad as it may sound or look
only I, can understand why

It’s one thing moving forward
it’s another enslaving myself
to what others call “better life”
I will remain on the same shelf

The reason is quite simple now
yet it is hard to be understood
I know myself and it’s too early
I ‘m not ready for the shoot

When will I be ready? you ask
when is it the right time then?
I know me, I like to take my time
hopefully not too late by then

People seem surprised at first
people seem to undermine me
the sacrifice is not worth it
and I see no benefitting me

In a “better life” where I lose me
I choose not to dive in

The Way Forward

Words have no meaning
when people do not understand them
same as a bird in the evening
making noises above them

It took years of hard work
making it difficult to change
if you don’t like it just don’t
listen to it and turn the page

Of all the languages we speak
there’s one that has no sound
but without it how do you think?
how do your thoughts form or come out loud?

Fundamental questions on the rise
no time to think about them now
make me see with your own eyes
the best way forward somehow
