Interchanging black and white as if it were just like day and night.
Going to sleep when other people are waking up,
Eating dinner when they’re eating breakfast,
Is the same life a clown leads with no makeup, confused.

Thinking that something ought to happen than the ordinary,
Fleeing from the scene and leaving with no time for an applause,
Trying to divert from your original roots and wanting to be someone else,
It’s the struggle that a billionaire goes through with money each day, confused.

You’re the sun in my eyes,

You’re the smile in my mouth,

You’re the music in my ears,

You’re the silk in my hands,

You’re the air I breathe through my nose,

You’re the reason I believe through my feelings.

The need for it,

The want of it,

The feel of it,

The hunger for it,

The love for it,

Just for what?

To claim and never need again,

To say the wanting has died down,

To not feel the way you felt before.

To starve yourself seems feasible,

To hate the other way,

Just to live.

While your patience is tranquil,

If my thoughts with yours, congregate and dance around in another dimension accessed through telepathy,

If one thing of importance that I learned over the years is that, what I should do, who I should become and especially who I ought to be

Then experiencing it and it will be worth while and it will make me feel better to live over the years and so you can Continue to be yourself, Else I just Continue to test your limits,

and Then you know who I am and what this is and so you break with hopefully a brief but sweet triumph.

laugh every chance you get,
only cry because you’re laughing too hard,
life is to short to just be sad,
pick yourself up and everything will be alright.

love everyone you can,
surround yourself with friends
and learn from your enemies.
go out and have fun,
sleep as little as possible.

it’s always a new day,
and you can change how you wake up.
so wake up put a smile on your face,
because in return you’ll get a smile back.

live life to its fullest, seize the day, live like it was your last day alive
because the last thing you want is regret and that’s what makes us sad.

go for that extra layup, go for that extra shot, that hustlin
don’t be afraid, go ahead ask her what her name is,
don’t be scared she’s just like you
what do you have to lose? who’s scared? are you?
