everyday we get up
rise to the occasion
sometimes it’s amazing
until it’s not.
we try our best
put on our super-hero chest
fake it till you make it
the chain is stronger than you think
i realize everyday it’s how you think
thoughts become things
it’s time to think great thoughts
try it, it’s you.

Try to learn to breathe deeply, really to taste food when you eat, and when you sleep, really to sleep. Try as much as possible to be wholly alive with all your might, and when you laugh, laugh like hell. And when you get angry, get good and angry. Try to be alive. You will be dead soon enough.
-Ernest Hemingway
I write because I’m good at it
I address them to you because
you make me feel things
I’ve never felt
only time will tell
If this is the real thing.

lost another friend to the virus
confronted with mortality
makes me feel
too much
masculinity makes me want to hold it in
crying under my skin
go away virus
you’re taking so much away
the universe has picked me to stay
I wish I can take your pain away
make it vanish.

don’t wanna be comfortable
with you anymore
leave, get out the door
DEPRESSION!

dreams are great
you have to keep at it
that’s my issue
it’s hard to keep going
but I’m going to keep going
how do you keep going?

i light you up with prayer everyday
hoping you will notice me
i light you up with prayer
because you’ve always taken care of me
this time see my friends and family through
i ask humbly.
