The Little Things

Step on the floor, it makes the loudest whisper as it cracks under my feet. Walk outside, the bitterness in the air fills my lungs with the smug reality of the world. A man drives by with his windows rolled up and a cigarette in hand, his passenger is death and they're holding hands. An old couple sits across from me in the bus, having lived through the bests of times and it shows in their faces but for some reason it looks like they're just getting started on life...She smiles at me and makes my heart race, can't believe she's so beautiful, hope the moment lasts forever and doesn't pass me by like the second that just did and is now history. I want to grab it and beat the seconds down in my palm for going so fast! I'll hope to hit them as hard as possible to attempt and knock time back, even if only for a moment, it would be worth the fight. Now please, just stand still for me so I can snap this picture which will be worth, as they say, "more than a thousand words" with infinite adjectives to describe it, but then in return Ill say its priceless, because I'll be sure to create new ones if I ever run out of ways to express the beauties of the subtleties in my life. And that's just something no one can take away, and in retrospect thats what makes the little things in life, remarkably more memorable than anything else I can ever fathom.

Like I said, I'm not sure if I like it too much. Please, share your comments, and criticism because I'd really like to know.

Metaphysically Linked.

Never can be such a horrible phrase to say, it can be the cause of much undesired pain and dismay. It would seem there can be a you without me, but without you I wouldn't care to exist or be seen. Promise me you'll never leave, and yes I mean, won't you stay with me, forever please? I can try to imagine a world without you, but my heart would jump through my conscience and tell me the truth, and that is that calculation does not compute, don't try and solve that riddle, or you'll loose some IQ. You see, we are one half of each other, and together we are complete and way more than lovers. Transcending the astral plane is simple for you and I, holding hands through the metaphysical as we fly, going through all the trials and tribulations that have been lain in our path, it only proves how much more we should stay together, but don't forget the past too fast, because though we mourn for our mistakes, we seem to grow in their wakes. No one out there can match our spirits, let them try, they won't make it past the gates, they'll just end up falling back bellow towards the place that they most hate, and proceed to live out their fates.

Thanks for always being there babe, I love you so much!

Good-Morning muse

I put on my earphones to drown out the ferocious roar of the metal beast thundering through the deepest and emptiest spaces of my mind. Slipping in and out of consciousness the mind and body that were once one entity, now unplugged from reality are separated in the astral plane, as if I've taken the red pill with no regrets. But what's this beautiful noise? The static emanating from my left ear bud has interrupted the hypnotic hold over me that was created by the uncontrollable but rhythmic swaying, like the rocking of a baby's cradle...My eyes are open now. I've arrived at my destination, this is my stop.

Came to me while passing out on the train ride home this morning, weird. Had to scribble it on a GQ magazine subscription stub I found on the floor lol, my phone was dead. Guess it can come to you whenever.

Last Stop...

The bell goes off!... and you step inside the metal ring full of emotions, and glance around you in awe. Realizing you are now face to face with all these fighters, who are either in they’re prime or worn out and ready to retire. The looks of pain coupled with joy. Anger siding with the stoic expression of a Buddhist monk. Looking around you, how many people around you are heart broken, blissfully in love, on their way to see their loved ones, or to their new companion. Where are the ones riding to the side relationship that will fill them with the remorse of a murderer until confessed? As they put their heads down in shame and attempt to justify the trip, only thoughts of passion and excitement come to mind to cloud their superior judgment. I’m trapped and hopelessly being consumed by all these energies surrounding me, fueling my own anguish. Glancing through the window, down at the swiftly moving tracks, the realization sends a reverberating chill through my spine, that the train keeps on moving. I find myself dazed out, blindly staring directly at the floor watching the lights pass by in the corner pockets of my eyes in a big blur…as if time slowed down I could feel my mind floating and leaving my body standing there...escaping it's iron jaws. Looking down at the lights they seemed for a second almost like the tail of a comet as if I was in a space ship, racing to my destination at another planet, where the atmosphere may slightly numb the pain. Returning back to reality, I learned it does not care about your feelings, nor does it feel guilty for leaving you behind to fend for yourself. In all actuality, the metal behemoth doesn’t even know you exist.

Human After all...

I am dumbfounded by how incredibly attracted to her beauty I’ve become. She is so mesmerizing, that her reflection alone on murky water is enough to squeeze the breath from my lungs with such a gentle force, it mirrors a loving mother’s touch on her baby’s skin. She shines so brightly, it’s almost impossible to capture her true magnificence in its entirety, with my incompetent, flawed, human vision. She is truly out of this world! and I can only hope to share the same space with her in my dreams. Her presence is a blessing, but she breaks my heart into so many pieces the puzzle it could create would cover the world. At the beginning of every day I am amazed at how I still have enough love for her at night. She’s here for a few hours, and then gone again. There’s somewhat of a void, like a black hole that takes everything away from me with no remorse, and I swell up inside with a feeling of helplessness, but I fret not, for she is faithful if not by habit and always returns to me, like a boomerang she strikes me right where the feeling is so great that I wish the night would last forever…Yet once again, I am nothing but a feeble mammal against her massive force. For when she departs for the day, I am unable to prevent her from deserting me, for I am only a man, and my physical prowess is limited to the confines of my body own flesh and blood.

The Journey...

It’s a very safe and sound environment, I am out of harms way in here. But something just does not feel right, the air is very thick, it becomes difficult to breathe and Suddenly the safe environment begins to look like a holding cell, I cant seem to getaway from these four walls which if could speak would say leave! God knows they would try to themselves if they weren’t rooted in place, but I digress, my senses are warning me and I feel attracted but repulsed at the same time by the thought current struggle outside… aaahh but the outer surface is unpredictable, very random and incredibly volatile, almost as if jumping into shark infested water with a meat necklace dangling from your collar, any wrong move could mean a much needed, but eternal escape from this cruel world. Yet still its as if on auto pilot, my appendages begin to act on their own, latching on the gear for the journey ahead, only the necessary equipment as if tomorrow does not matter, only the right here and the now. Ready I am for the fight up ahead, clashing against the elements head first. NO thunder strong enough to find my weakness. No rain heavy enough to slow down my momentum. NO snow sleek enough to make my actions unsteady. As I fight through the limitless army sent forth from Gaia’s empire I am yet to see failure as an option. FINALLY VICTORY is mine for the taking… the battle has been won, but the war still rages on. Gauging the distance I’ve put between myself and my home, it’s time to trek back throughout the battlefield and get some much needed rest to revitalize my energy, heaven knows this wont be the last time I have to brave the elements. I take off my running shoes, finish up my after running stretches in order to avoid later pain and finish strong with a bottle of water and a nice warm shower!
