Hopeful (Remove filter)
I Accept My Reality
I accept
All the things around me
The harsh warmth of an Indian afternoon,
The confused colors of the evening,
Sheer darkness of night regardless of moon,
And everything between the end and beginning.
I have been trying to change my life,
But all I could change was my perspective.
I can’t seem to change the story, Though I attempt to shift the narrative.
I’ll fulfill m...

a cloud of dust
a cloud of dust
I watched as you drove down the dirt road
in a cloud of dust
swallowing you until you vanished
you said you will return to me
will you
do you promise
tomorrow I will look down the dirt road
for a small speck on the horizon
that grows until the close perspective
allows your face to fill the entire frame of my mind
you h...

Boy and Kite
kite and boy
a paper kite
flutters in the wind
making wonderful sounds
back to the boy holding
the end of the string
kite dips and smiles
at boy and dances
little jigs as its string
is held taut
boy smiles back
a strong wind begins to blow
kite string breaks with a snap
startled boy looks up
and sees kite start to
fly in erratic patterns ...

Alternate Universe
In another life
you are mine and I am yours
all is as it should be,
I'm enthralled with you
and you with me.
Just as I am now
only having eyes for you,
you knowing me
even more than you already do
but without all the boundaries
and our courtship being taboo.
I surrender completely,
you let me in,
joy and possibilities
abounding,
no prior kno...

Bud of hope
In our hearts, there is a bud of hope,
But around it, the devil ties a rope,
And whispers with utter certainty,
That our failure is a guarantee,
But how can we shut the voices out?
Hope withers and fear starts to sprout,
And if we do not take control ,
In time, fright will take over our soul,
Let us cut the rope with scissors of grit,
water the plant with love on every bit,
Drench it wit...

My poinsettia
In fear of celebrating to soon
My poinsettia has made it to June
I hope and I pray
It will out live May
If it survives June, I'll be over the moon

Dark Cloud
A dark cloud over me
No matter how hard I battled I seemed to be stuck
No matter how hard I tried to overcome the struggle it was eating me alive
Breathe, wake up, walk
What is wrong with you I yelled, " You have God!"
Get up battle, don't give up
Life keeps throwing punches at you
Life keeps making you fall
But fight, fight and be strong
Don't give up
Don't you dare ...

Nocturne/Julia Caroline/Translation in Amharic/Alem Hailu/በምሽት
Bird beneath the midnight sky
As on my lonely couch I lie,
I hear thee singing in the dark,
Why sing not I?
No star-gleams meet thy wakeful eye;
No fond mate answers to thy cry;
No other voice, through all the dark,
Makes sweet reply.
Yet never sky-lark soaring high
Where sun-lit clouds rejoicing lie,
Sang as thou singest in the dark,
Not mute as I!
O lone, sweet spirit! tell me ...

Vivendi insufficiens
Listen
I've been trying to explain for so long that you are more,
You are more than a 9-5 dead end job
You are more than a number placed on this earth.
You have much more to you than you aspire,
Much more to you than they aspire for you.
Now I don't know about you,
But I know that as a race we should be fed up,
Fed up with all the bullshit that has been placed upon us.
Fed up of all the...
