"Third, A Breath of Time" | 7.26.2016 by Sinestro MTC

 

Joy in the sixth month

Sorrow in the long seventh,

 

...Anguish in the eighth?

[RED2018]

Angela:

 

 

Be grateful for another year of your life, not just a year older, but a year better, wiser, and smarter.

To this day marks your natal or (we just say) legal day.

You are now stepping to a new stage of your life - adulthood. Take care of yourself and study hard. I know you can be the best of yourself in the future, just believe in yourself- learn from your mistakes and ‘failures’ – they’re there to get you better and stronger.

As you enter the world of adults, you will discover a wider world
with all its glories and chaos.

You will meet a lot of people with all their goodness and their flaws

Remember always where you were rooted, and not all those around you are ideal- choose only those that are within the doctrines of goodness set up by our Supreme Being

 

 

You will encounter different situations–exciting, happy, sad, frustrating. Know that whatever comes to your life, there are a lot of people loving you, especially your family (they are you're #1 fan!). If there are things you are unsure of, or you have too many “what ifs,” do not worry. Everyone struggles with growing up. Again, let me reiterate that those are all part of existence.

 

Take your time.

You can talk things over with your friends (I know you have a lot of them),

classmates, and family. They will guide you where to go and what to do next.

Keep at being a good servant of God.

Continue on your journey with Him, with your family, relatives and friends.

Continue living a life in pursuit of a better you, and a better life for the people around you

I know you’re a fine lady (not just cute and pretty) and I assure you will be fine here in a not-so-perfect world.

Be open with your mom- she has no other plans for you than to get you happier and a better person…

A birthday is just the first day of another 365-day journey around the sun.

 

Maligayang Kaarawan, Anak!!!

"Snow-kissed" | 8.14.2016 by Seta Sinestro

 

(words and photo by me)

 

 

Today was a great day.
The grass green with morning dew when she called out of the blue.

 

The sun was a rose behind a veil of grey, as she laughed with the beads of rain falling
On the roofs and broken twigs.

The passing of hours betrayed only by the onset of shadows. A voice so sweet pierces the solitude.

It felt like the first kiss of snow on the orange of autumn.

Soul and Love

 

i felt your soul touch mine

although i know we have to let go in time

in this life, we can't stay together

we can't promise each other the word forever

who will first let the other end go

will it be you or me, no one really knows

when the moment comes, who will keep the hurt mum?

to the snap of the band who will be the one who is numb?

as we both realize the truth laid between and before us

who will be the first to cross that river in a rush?

does it really matter if it is you or I?

because at the end both or one will eventually cry

has the inevitable end finally come?

though I know that the love has not gone

is this the bittersweet end that I have feared

is the time for goodbye finally here?

my love, my sweet, sweet love

always i will treasure the reality that you and i wove

eternally i will be grateful for what you have given me

a piece of your soul, your being, because goodbye now it must be

Another poem from Halie's Photos and Ramblings ©2016

 

Let The Tears Fall

 

In silence she sits

In darkness she grieves

Alone she cries quietly

Alone she drops her bravery

Her heart heavy with grief

Her body shaking like an autumn leaf

Her mind filled with thoughts of happy times

Her entirety now for him away it pines

And as she writes the silent tears fall

And as she remembers crumble does her wall

Memory serves her bitter pill and pain

And now she wonders when will herself she regain

A broken heart shattered in pieces

Healing she yearns; the only thing she wishes

Her prayer now is for the rains to stop

For her heart to mend and the tears to not anymore drop

[startoffbeat]

It does not matter now. With all the confusion and anger and every emotion in between, he forgot what got him into the mess he is in. "You got two things left in your table, a

phone and a .38. So which one is it?", Barney said. "Go away, Barney! I kinda need some solo time right now.", He mumbled. "Why? I'm the only friend you got.", Barney replied. "You're not even real!", He retorted.

"Oh, Come on! I'm as real as can be!"

"You're just in my head!"

"Which makes me even more real!"

"Get away from me. You got me into this mess", he sobbed while snot dripped down his nose. "Oh, so it's on me now?! Who told you to stay away from that f*cker with the shady car? I did! Who told you to come home early every night? I did! Who told you to stay out of trouble? I did! It was I who kept us safe! It was you who got our asses into this sh!thole we are in! I deserve an apology!", Barney said, fuming. Spit spilling out of his imaginary mouth.

He has had enough of this conversation. He grabbed the gun, pointed it to his temple and pulled the trigger. He was lucky the chamber was loaded. Now he is free of Barney. That loud obnoxious bastard. Now he only needs to deal with Sandra and Keith. Maybe he can have another conversation like this with those two. Tonight, at least, Barney is gone.

"Malice" | 9.7.2016 by Sinestro MTC

 

http://s3.postimg.org/awjk6j1sz/IMG_20160718_193126.jpg

 

If the shadow of a doubt exists,

then the shadow is real.

 

Doubt is dubious

but truly frightening.

And that sometimes

 

Out of the frightened,

come the furious.

"Vinces" | 9.10.2016 by Seta Sinestro

 

Nihil amatur nisi comprenditur,

it was said;

 

If a face can launch a thousand ships,

If a death sends a man to impossible labors,

If a union breaks a war of families,

 

What can be not known

for a heart so willing

to give its own?

This is probably the last poem I'll write here thank you for the inspiration, FDL.
