I’m over 40
don’t know where I’m going
don’t know when it will last
the agony of regrets in my past
each day I’m given
should be worth celebrating right?
adventure about to take flight
any day now
life is mine for the taking
I’m just making
excuses.
am i lazy or unmotivated
or both
gotta shake it off
more Mariah than Taylor
made for me
life, easy, breezy
by the horns
gonna make it
so it is and it is so.
here’s the show!

growing up queer
didn’t see many like me around
is that why pictures from the past were of a frown?
the times have changed, thank god for that.
love to see it, the new generation
living and loving.

It’s not my fault
I didn’t do it
I can’t take your pain away
my color of my skin
has nothing to do with the pain you’re in
dude
write it out, muck about
don’t take out my
brother
there’s another shooting
anger is brewing
when will it be enough?
we won’t lie down
no one gave us a crown
or a pedestal you put us on
you show your true colors but God sees above all others
justice will be swift
and you’ll deserve it
or haven’t you heard
it can be changed like this-
*snaps fingers*

the person they see
when they look at me
who is that I wonder
depression please don’t take me under
fake it till I make it
persona cracked won’t break it
time to find my joy
one less lonely boy
©️MarcusCaesar
so close to my dreams
can’t get close enough it seems
circling the pipes
nights I stay up
lonely, but don’t give a fuck
please inspire me
don’t know who I’m talking to
just hoped the message come through
I’m drained
need some relief.

this was the day
plans were made
you betrayed my heart
not okay
this was the day
we are to say our vows
how did I not see this before?
My life isn’t over
I wont shoulder this disaster
on my own
What does this mean?
I’m keen on letting you figure it out

“I do not need anyone’s permission to be this audaciously beautiful, brilliant, and bold. I am not waiting for anyone to co-sign God. I am a breath taking sunrise. Watch me -ebonyjanice
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.

nothing
breathe in the moment
stay present
will be all that I can be
but also give myself grace
playing in the face of adversity
I/We will survive.
