Why is she clever now and so refined?
On her account, this man is out of his mind
My head was good before I took this whirl
I lost my wits to the aforesaid girl

Take a chance and try my fare
It will grow on you, I swear
Soon it will taste so good to you

If by then you should want more
All the things I’ve done before
Will inspire things quite new

Long absent have I been with the tongue
For the reason I cannot find, it is undone
The pen, the paper, the thought, the rhyme
Life, she takes with no mercy, all of my time

But now, an opportune moment to find a muse
I pray, through and through that this I continue to abuse
So onward Soul Mind and Body to this glorious end
(As to take upon the cloth of a Poet)

It is the words that lust for my touch
To plant, water and tend

Under necessary conditions
No one to face but the
Constant criterion
Unbroken and straight
Simple the dawn

Echoes of past events
Nudge the tiller on my
Present course
I await its reflection
In the future

Lying Weightless and Maybe

Among the many lovely things that make the magic of her face
Among the beauties that make her body’s charm and grace
Which is most fair? Thou didst reply to the Abhorred, O soul of mine
“No single beauty is the best, when she is all one flower divine”

All things that charm me I ignore yet one alone brings most delight
She shines before me like the dawn and she consoles me like the night
The harmony is far too great that governs all her body fair
For impotence to analyze and say which note is sweetest there

O mystic metamorphosis
My senses into one sense flow
Her voice makes perfume when she speaks
Her breath is music faint and low

It is to be prayed that the mind be sound in a sound body. Ask for a brave soul that lacks the fear of death, which places the length of life last among nature’s blessings, which is able to bear whatever kind of sufferings, does not know anger, lusts for nothing and believes that the hardships and the savage labors of life are better than the satisfactions, feasts, and the soft bed of any king. I will reveal what you are able to give yourself; For certain, the one footpath of a tranquil life lies through virtue.

It’s pathetic how we can’t live with the things we can’t understand. How we need everything labeled and explained and deconstructed. We can spend our lives letting the world tell us who we are. Sane or insane. Saints or sex addicts. Heroes or victims. Letting history tell us how good or bad we are. Letting our past decide our future. Or instead, we can FUCK ALL THAT and decide for ourselves.

People will always try to put you down and hurt you. Whether its a coworker, a family member, a friend, or even a lover. Consciously or not they’ll steal your self-confidence. When it comes to believing in yourself, always focus at the end result and don’t blink. If you have a goal, a dream, an aspiration, believe in yourself while you are on the way to your destination, and you will have already arrived. Throughout life, people will try to shake your faith in yourself. When this happens, remind yourself that the only way they can succeed is if you allow it. When you walk down the street, always hold your head high and keep walking. Don’t ever let anyone destroy your self-confidence and your faith in yourself because in the end, that’s really all you have.
