In these days of overload and work, sometimes I find myself giving up on the small things in life. I kid myself that they aren't as important and that I'll have time for them at some other point in time. But today, I question myself? Will I have time tomorrow? Who knows what 'tomorrow' holds for us. It could be worse and it definitely could be better as well. Even among all the dilemmas, I keep one thing with me that I have learned from many of my friends, and family. That is to keep hope because hope is the willingness to want that hunger within oneself to strive for more. To commit to something impossible. To fight fears and live life to YOUR fullest because you deserve it! So, here are some lines that have summarized my mindframe at the time.

I feel like a teardrop escaping an eye,
Leaving the world of worries, saying goodbye,
To all I endear, complaining why o why,
Can't I just keep it inside and cry,
Put a curtain on it and spit a lie,
But my heart keeps goin' without a sigh,
Its persistent, saying 'the least I can do is try',

To believe and dream for a ray of light,
Keep praying and build faith and might,
So I can get closer to myself and take the ideal flight,
Cuz I'm done with the wrongs, its my time to do it right,
I see my vision, my journey, myself as a kite,
Defiant against a sight at this height,
I soar the clouds but fear the plight,

But I meditate, and pray for a way to my will,
Cuz if I can't live, I don't want to kill,
Myself in this world of moving stills,
I want to climb that mountain, but I'm gonna stand on this hill,
Take a break, and skip pebbles through this rill,
I don't care, I'll face consequences, I'll pay the bills,
But I'm crushing my fear through the mills,
And re-focus, re-gain and redeem and fill,
My veins with elixirs of hope with these pills,

And then the lights shudder and haze,
I thought it was my end, my last phaze,
My days were over but I was dazed,
By my own presence and faith, when I raised,
From my dis-ease and found the keys,
To my fortune of having a future to seize,
To work until I can melt and freeze,
Till its time to shine, when we glide like the breeze.

The Super Sammy!

Today is a day that belongs to a very special friend that I've met. She is one of the smartest and most entertaining friends that I've ever
had, this one's for you Ms. Lo.

When I first found out about you,
I could barely force myself to,
Realize that you're the young lady with the reach of an adult who,
Had the coherent linear thoughts with the twist of creativity,
The virtuous nature of a genuine personality,

I bid you an auspicious new beginning from here,
So mark this day and celebrate this new year,
'Cause these moments shall be memories,
So find a place to keep them and a place to bury,
The fears, the uncertainties and worry,

'Cause you'll always have us with you,
In different shapes, and forms, some unreal, some true,
But when its Friday, we'll hit Starbucks with you,
To brew another time, another mission with our crew,
But when the future comes,
I'm sure you'll be going places,
But I'll find you and your traces,
Maybe in L.A., maybe even miami!
But I'll come around to say 'Happy birthday Sammy!'

I hope you have an amazing day and I wish that my wishes be yours for today. Happy Birthday Sammy :D

My Golden Brown Buddy

He's been around for as long as I can remember throughout my high school career.
He has taught me much through these years and our relationship has grown closer and stronger from acquaintances to friends and now.. almost brothers?! Haha I would be more than fortunate to have a brother like him. So, to my just-turned-elder, Mr. Kenneth Kwok, I hope you had an awesome day and here are a few lines to shine some light on those memories we have cherished.

The circuit in his body is filled with just one code,
To keep workin' even with all the load,
He can take the pressure, its my anti-node,
He's ready to strike big, he's in his mode,

He says its time to do it right,
With all I have, all my might,
I gotta keep faith and patience,
Uniting to bring change in relation,

For the singer that makes rockband look like a game,
So I hum this poem cuz its fresh and not the same,

Its my track don't change the station,
Pump it up louder, gotta rock this nation,

Keep crackin' them jokes that are THAT lame,
I feel like I'm goin' wild and I'm losin' my tame,

Cuz he don't rise above until he's done thinkin'
He's the type of the guy that just keeps it in,
Let's his soul bleed on a secret parchment that,
Only he could be readin'
But now that we're happy, I'll be greetin',

All the people that smile for another beginnin',
They say that failures are just lessons in life,
Overlookin' experiences and cutting through strife,

Hopin' for hope and livin' to live,
Its your birthday, but you still have presents to give,
Teachin' me to live, forget and forgive,
I'm glad I have a brother to have around,
So on your day, I want you to live as the king that gets crowned!
