A REAL GUY

I have tried to be a nice guy
But is as hard as being one's self
Especially when people want your happiness to depend on them being happy
My baby, it is time you realized that it is your choice to make
Whether to be a nice guy or a real guy
A real guy like the sun who will bask in the morning but burn at noon
Feels too weak to shine in the the night but give a hand to the moon from far away
A real guy like the moon who will shine light for people who are lost in the darkness without expectations
Feel too weak to shine in the day but some days show up anyway
Even when her presence is not loud, I am told she stands in the sky every day and night
A real guy like the stars who will show a voyager the way not caring what zodiac they possess 
A real guy who makes their mark not withstanding their strengths and short comings

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

KINDRED

I wish I had a friend Whose loyalty would never bend Walk with me miles on end Be plain and never pretend A cynic who would blend But to me be a kindred A spirit that knows me Keep me and my secrets just as I would  To the very end
