I am the Wind
I am the wind in the trees
I am the force that rustles its leaves
I am the voice that whispers through its branches at night
Whispering divine secrets
Blowing them all around~
No one can stop my breeze
As I carry gold and debris
And meanwhile, I deliver my message to all of humanity.
I am unrestrained, like the wind.
And nowhere, ever, will I be pinned.
truth
The truth is that I can wear the biggest smile when I'm in my saddest moments
The truth is that I have friends who help me build a genuine smile.
The truth is that I don't feel happy most of the time,
The truth is that I go to battle with myself everyday,
The truth is that I wear masks
The truth is that I'm trying hard to not put them on.
The truth is that I'm constantly searching for love.
The truth is that I'm often disappointed by the way the world is run.
The truth is that I confide in prayer and God.
The truth is that I hate confrontation.
The truth is that I am in love with music.
The truth is that I avoid getting too close to anyone
The truth is that I feel broken sometimes.
The truth is that I feel happy when a friend calls to check in on me.
The truth is that I find it hard to trust people, but despite of it, I trust several.
The truth is that I feel very loved when someone brings me flowers.
The truth is that I cry a lot.
The truth is that I feel vulnerable
The truth is that I don't know what to believe
The truth is that I feel stuck
The truth is that I think I'm too different to fit in
The truth is that I feel alone in my problems
The truth is that this existence is not bliss
Lastly,
The truth is that everyone is like this.
The truth is that most people feel this way.
People who live next door or people on the other side of the globe.
But how can we help each other? How can we stop feeling alone when we're not?
Over 7 billion minds and bodies, all feeling and thinking the same ...
how come then, we feel insane?

sedated with pain
it's supposed to take the pain away
make you numb
But is it possible to feel the pain even when you're sedated?
Like rubbing ice repeatedly on skin
It makes it go senseless.
It feels - but at the same time
it doesn't.
~
a house collapsing in the midst of fire
~
bombs dropping down on what was once a tropical beach
~
shadows of darkness made by inferno
~
two boys playing with a toy gun in the street
~
a teacher rounding up her students to take shelter inside
~
a doctor administering morphine to a dying soldier.
The images float around in the air
Their stories-their own form of pain relief.
They shoot arrows of ice until everyone is numb
numb with a side effect of pain.
