if i’ll tell my story to myself
to entertain my state of mind
i won’t fill my space with self-pity
from feeling withdrawn and partly empty
if pretense would make me look
an upright person getting off the hook
stinking stories from the wicked backdoor
won’t break my heart when roars are washed ashore
i will trust my own values and beliefs
neglecting phony news thriving beyond limits
embracing pure thoughts without fear
they will be filled with honest hopeful cheers

Life’s Story

you told me a story
i did not understand
you said it was the glory
of someone who took a stand


longing for a dream where hope resides
finding victory where failure divides
luck sometimes become a reason for such
as we struggle to seek some options without rush


survival and death, a battle we call life
death isn’t something that we can hide
to survive is a strong man’s choice
life is God-given, a mortal sin to destroy…

This is our song…

you’ve met me in someone else’s night
you were beaming with something so light
not in my dreams when i was asleep
nighttime became the dawn at your grip

your story ran as you moved fast on foot
to catch the shadow of the picture that’s mute
no words were spoken and i never understood
but you’ve shown a face humble in magnitude

words were spinning ’round my mind
notes were reeling right places to find
tunes were descriptive of what you feel
this is the song you’ll have to hear

while the orchestra is playing
this heart will never stop burning
as the flames of love will come along
sing with me, this is our song !

triangle writes – Truth and Lie

by : Bacardi Gold

the story will be said to unfold

and launch a narrative score of truth

releasing unfounded pickled flaws

snaking through the jagged stones

.

winding erratic lines submerged

deep in a silent sea of myth

talking heads with mouths unturned

leading its way out sitting on the tongue

.

heart pounding quivering win

almost a minute to touch the string

the boundary is a word away

truth is yours the lie is doomed to decay
