UTOPIA

It all depends on the day
Today he woke up feeling happy and alive
Another he goes to bed thanking that it is done and wonders if he would still wish to wake up
But life is life
Somehow he wakes up no matter what he wakes up to
Sometimes he wakes up feeling lost
Other times he wakes up feeling alive

Whichever day he wakes up in
He looks up to tomorrow
Tomorrow is a beautiful as that expensive gift he desires but is kept as a promise by father time
He hopes it will be free of his pain and sorrow but filled with perfect joy
So he sleeps and wakes up still dreaming of a brighter tomorrow
Though there is an iota of possibility that it is utopia
Still it feels better to hope

He looks at tomorrow as a magic mirror upon which he sees his perfect self
His sees today as the road to his perfect day so he starts walking in the right direction
He has to make little effort to move to the direction where his better version lives
He wants to see the perfect him before he closes his eyes
He want to so badly to meet his best version so that he would go to eternal sleep close to his sunshine

He wants to be hope
So he cannot give up whatever the day brings
Somehow he will be the sunshine of tomorrow
That is his utopia, his opium, his hope and his heaven

WHEN WORDS WOULDN'T SPEAK

When words have nothing to say But the heart is full What would speak for you? What would speak to you? When the quiet of a heart And the sound of a meldy Would resonate with your truth That words could never say When you have to quietly shout to the world Silenltly tell your story What would speak to you? What would talk to you? When the chrip of birds And the rumbling of a waterfall Would not speak to you When quiet would not do What would speak to you? What would talk for you? What would authentically tell the world your story Authentically Not hiding a single note of the rhythm of your heart What would tell the world your desire Your fears and terror What would speak to you? What would speak for you? An old melody That holds a memory A sound that holds a longing That knows the notes of your heart Would that speak for you? Would it speak to you?

THE PARADOX

The fact that the reason to hold on is bigger than the reason to give up Does not trivialize your pain The fact that you neither shed a tear nor made a sound Does not mean you never cried The fact that you smiled all through the ceremony does not mean you were happy The fact that you are alive and happy Does not mean you aren't dead A strange ghost animating your body Not your dream self The fact you woke up with a plan Does not mean you aren't drifting through life The fact that you love a song Does not mean it makes you happy The fact that you woke when the alternative seemed lucrative Tells that you have outsmarted the paradox once more
