a poem that was written for fun, with a 30 day word challenge for the month of April.
Life


Frustration,
beauty,
an existential,
an antsy, lonely,
uncertain,
yet delicious,
full of struggle,
trying to be passionate,
thrive and strive,
fly without a rerun,
using your intuition,
trying not to get too exhausted,
yet staying faithful and loved,
not an easy task,
trying to adapt,
feeling lost and discombobulated,
can make us feel so tired,
though we still find the energy,
and so eager and full of new innovation,
and finding the courage, ignoring the disconnect of others,
the flirtations that are among us and try to distract us,
our scars are not meant to hurt us,
but to remind us and to teach us,
sometimes it’s so hard not to be redundant and create new scars,
and watch everything unravel into a fuzzy,
a confusion of a mess,
waiting for the risen,
to take place,
to trust, and not to divide,
be committed and not incoherent or incomparable,
but to be sustainable,
and humbled, full of hope and feel awake,
to feel at peace without,
too much frustration, and disruption,
again and again,
to not be so destructive to oneself,
to feel content with yourself,
indulge once in awhile,
don’t get hysterical,
engulf your passion inside of you,
take charge,
don’t fear change,
be all that you can endure and more,
visibility of the future,
reflection of the past,
delight that you are here and alive,
without the chaos of others,
feel nostalgic at times,
don’t think it’s a burden,
to feel the sense to gravitate towards truth,
and wisdom,
honor His love,
have personal courage to move forward,
chivalry is not dead,
sometimes we need a segway,
so we don’t become transparent,
and gloomy, so we can make progress,
it’s the quality, not quantity,
make it count, make it ceremonial,
make it a savvy one,
don’t swindle it away,
make it epic,
full of rose,
use your endurance and then some,
persevere through it,
be a soldier of it,
don’t be constricted,
be glorious, satisfied,
with the rumbling of more in the pit of your stomach,
striving for more,
almost euphoric,
not a blemish, but an orgasm,
we all get into a funk,
and sometimes makes us feel sick,
but we are surrounded by love,
so holler for more longevity,
be tenacious,
it’s a big, blank canvas,
your canvas,
no room for miscommunication,
in this wide open space,
dig deep within your soul,
don’t go off on a tangent or do so,
it’s yours to do whatever you want,
try not to feel drained,
feel hopeful instead,
feel the overflow,
the abundant amount of love,
be romantic,
care about all the glimmer,
let go of the stress,
see the beauty,
have some redemption,
be decisive,
uncommon,
be joyful,
excited,
deliberate,
evocative,
love unconditional,
don’t say good-bye,
cleanse your soul,
entice others,
heal shattered hearts,
drink bourbon,
it can be frantic at times,
some may lose a little blood,
we may feel undesirable,
but be relentless,
be quirky, never mind what others may say,
its only turbulence,
we all have fears of abandonment and distrust,
but it is futile,
a mute point,
it doesn’t matter,
cause where we’re going is a place of peace,
only in the beginning,
we feel insecure,
full of procrastination,
release the drama,
live vigorous,
exclusive,
with integrity and honor,
in remembrance of where we’ve been,
without resistance to where we’re going,
don’t be sadistic,
remember the consequences,
clarity of what’s next,
remember how it feels to be broken,
it would behoove you,
rejuvenate,
prioritize,
have morals,
there isn’t much time left,
honor your mom, your children, and your spouse,
be at peace,
we are not finished yet,
this is only the narrative,
we haven’t reached the conclusion,
I know it’s complicated,
but hang on,
the finale is coming,
it’s not bogus,
we have botched things up along the way,
we are only human,
we were born,
for a reason, a purpose,
feel the hunger,
be fierce, not a coward,
it’s not a conspiracy,
there is no separation,
only freedom,
hope,
faith,
therefore, be a witness,
don’t be suspicious,
drink some coffee,
smile, be content and enjoy the waiting,
learn from the distressing moments,
don’t be overbearing,
don’t worry about being unstable,
that’s becoming the new “norm”,
there will be thunderstorms along the way,
and even be a bit congested at times,
you might even be betrayed too,
but regroup,
even be a little arrogant and maybe a little steamy
and presumptuous too,
don’t let anyone or anything get you down,
admire yourself, others too if you so desire,
sweat a little,
smile, laugh, and most of all breathe,
take your time and live,
because one day this will be all gone,
LIFE.
