Free to Dream

This morning, I awoke
And asked the river for a kiss
To quench my thirst
So the mind can drift
Please allow me to escape
Where dreams don't resist…..

The Journey Ahead

As you all well know, My first book is due in June. I can' help but express my feelings of gratitude that you all have shown me. Pertaining to my poetry pieces, I have written and submitted to my bloggersite. My first poetry publication has always been a dream of mine, going back to my days as a youth. Finally my dream is fulfilled! I have always measured success in multitudes,especially when thinking about moment of truth and realization when one has arrived. I've always seen myself as an ambassador of education spreading knowledge and wisdom to young minds and helping them instill a sense of direction and hope within themsleves. My new book "Dare to Dream And Touch A Star" will do exactly that, as it touches on matters that everyone can relate to. Furthermore it goes indepth when explaining our dreams and jouney ahead; As society finds ways to put barriers and fences around our dreams, so we discourage and fall short. But Dare to Dream And Touch A Star My new book will enlighten and inspire you to look at life in a different way. The release date is mid June.. New book will be avialable on Amazon.com, Borders.com, BarnesandNoble.com, I will keep you posted otherwise. Thanks for the love and support. One love

Survival Mode

Everyday I awake
My mind is on survival mode
Waiting for the opportunity
To shine and reload
But my enemies wait for the moment
To calculate my plans
Watching my footsteps
To see where I land
But they fail to realize
I’ve already laid out my tracks
Scheming and planning
As I evaluate the facts


Today is about survival
So I must not fail
Just look around! People in captivity
That surrendered and failed
Just another reason to survive
And create my own tale
Before I become a victim
Imprisoned! Looking for bail …..

Courageous Man

What makes me such a courageous man?
Is it the fire burning deep in my eyes
That allows me to stand?
Or is it the fight within me
Propelling me like a fan


What makes me such a courageous man?
Is it because
I move at my own pace
Not settling for less, because I want to be something great

What makes me a courageous man?
Is it because my heart pumps gold
Writing my own version, to a story yet untold
Or is it because, my emotions speak from the depth of my heart
Beating like a drum, from the very start.

What makes me such a courageous man?
Is it the judgment of others? that fail to understand?
Destine for greatness, where I will achieve my master plan
Or is it because I’m soldier
Who didn't accept defeat, than ran?
What makes me such a courageous man?

Sacrifice

I will sacrifice time for you

For with the wiliness of love, there’s a price

Passing hours, even sleepless nights

In time, your meaning will unvail the prize

The sweet, tears, hardwork, and determination

Will finalize the fight

The willingness to be enslaved

Trapped within my own works

As if I were slave

Digging in the dirt

Leaving my imprints

Covering the hurt

A chance to make my own gains

Forming my own chain

Frozen in time

That couldn’t be tamed

No mark left unturned

No work left undone

Inspiring others

Shinning like the sun.

Eternal Flames

Deep passion of flames, burn from within
Spreading like wild fire
To where journeys begin
Ignited by desire
To where legacy lives
As the source, pumps with fuel
Seeking to fill.

The flames burn with an internal struggle
Searching for stability, to finally be humble
The fire rages with heat, trying to burst out the bubble
Coming to the days , where flames remain enternal
Constantly going, in the hopes of becoming immortal.

The Coconut that grew from the gullyside

Did u hear about the coconut?
That grew from the gully side?
It defined odds
Becoming a fruit that couldn't be denied
It proved society wrong
By owning up to its own expectation
Now it's brought on
A new revelation
It's scary to see
When others neglected it
It learned how survive on its own
Attaining water, minerals, and sunlight
Now well grown
It rose from the bushes
When others couldn’t see
It never gave up hope
When others didn't believe
It proved everyone wrong
By rising in the air
When others couldn't cope
And didn't seem to care
It pulled, and trampled through weeds
Even though it wasn't fair
Long live the coconut, that went through the despair
