Day 334 of 366: Struggle

I can't remember when I was at peace
When I am calm
This constant rushing waves
Has been here since
And I cannot recall
When calm was the norm
And here I am now
Struggling to my core

Day 333 of 366: Alone

I hope it heals
And all pain disappear
The anxiety of it all
And the things that bothered me
Goes away in a snap
Because the voices are still loud
I feel the walls closing in
And I know it'll be tough
But I'll manage
Because I'll do it alone 
As I always do

Day 332 of 366: Done

At this point I'm tired
Beyond any point of consolation
The faux and facades
Doesn't work on me now
And I've reached my breaking point
I'm just done

Day 331 of 366: Forget

I wish I could simply forget 
The things in the past 
The wrong words spoken
The hurt unintended 
But a part of me still suffers
Aa they went unresolved 
For forgiveness was forcibly took
And was not earned
I am expected
To simply forget all of it 
Not knowing how much
Hurt it caused me
So I'll move forward not speaking 
As all my communication is mocked
And soon after all of that
I'll be just another story you tell

Day 330 of 366: Resentment

I feel it growing more
As the things that happened before
Still aches for sure 
As I bleed previous wounds
I cannot simply forget
What caused them too
Needs were never met
Only met by dissident 
All the lies and deceit
Still frustrates me
Now I walk alone
With a heavy heart
Still hoping that 
Things will be better

Day 329 of 366: Little more

A little more
Just a little more
And I'll finally get that coveted prize
Just a little more

Saturday, November 23, 2024

Day 328 of 366: Time

It was the best day ever
Because I spent it with you

Friday, November 22, 2024

Day 327 of 366: A day at a time

You're going to be in a better place
It'll be okay
The pain doesn't last as long
As much as you think
It will all make sense
You just need
To live a day at a time

Day 326 of 366: All about Jairah


I am enthralled how you smile
And how everything you do seems wonderful 
I love how you learn things
And the excitement you bring 
Discussing those things
It was all grey before you
And suddenly all the love songs
Were making sense again 
I wish you best on your 26th
And I hope to be with you
In every birthdays to come

Day 325 of 366: Closing in

Progress have been made 
And is moving forward
Things that were stagnant 
Finally has traction
And everything that never made sense
Is now making one
As steps toward reality is inching closer
I just need to work on
Making it work
And finally my coveted prize 
Will be finally at hand

Day 324 of 366: The right thing

I'm not expecting some sort of reward
Maybe a little compensation 
Or better yet just leave me alone
I'm frustrated because of all my trying 
I managed to fail over and over again 
I failed the connections I sought
And lost in every way possible
I've been dragged to the mud
A million times before
And when I got angry
Vented on other people
And I felt guilty about it
Sins of my past still haunt me
I wish I was a better man
Even though I was just a kid
So I guess karma plays here
But even with the disappointment 
Of losing my friends
Not giving me a chance to explain
Or even if I fail a million times
To make the connections I want
I will keep doing the right thing

Day 323 of 366: Due

Another slog of week coming
Just barely pushing through 
In light of what is coming 
I will simply do my due

Sunday, November 17, 2024

Day 322 of 366: Inching

Inching closer to my goal
Closing on my desire
I'll finally get my prize
As the tears and blood
Poured into everything 
Is now at reach 

Saturday, November 16, 2024

Day 321 of 366: Accomplished

Been feeling down lately
The weight is crushing down
Now that I'm better
I attribute it to a gift 
Given by someone I love 
I finished a video game
After a while now
And now the sense of accomplishment
Is all the world to me
Little wins that I have 
But is a joy to celebrate 
Now slowly I will
Earn my biggest prize

Friday, November 15, 2024

Day 320 of 366: Happy

Slowly I walk towards
The thing I always want
Acclimating to it
Is an anticipation too much to bear
But I am here now
And I will get it soon 
And I cannot explain 
How happy I am right now

Day 319 of 366: Kamit

Isang araw muli ang aking igagapang
Isang araw na ilalaan
Sa mga tungkuling nakatakda
Na sana ay matapos ko nang matiwasay
Kakayanin ang dadaan
At iraraos ang nakalaan
Ngayon ay muling lalaban
Hanggang ang inaasam asam
Ay aking makakamtan

Day 318 of 366: Isang Panaginip

Hanggang ngayon may pagluluksa
Pa rin akong nadarama
Ang sakit sa loob ay tila
Hindi nag hihilom pa
Ilang taon na rin nakalipas
Dumaan na ang maraming bukas
Ngunit nananatili ang bakas
Ng iniwan na alaala
Hindi ko na mga maalala
Ang itong tinig
At kahit anong pilit
Hindi ko na ito mawari
Ngunit isang panaginip 
Sakin ay sumilip
At bigla kang nagpakita
Na tila ika'y buhay pa
Nakangiti ka sa akin
At agad mong sinabi 
Na nagagalak ka
Sa naabot kong mga tagumpay
Ako'y yumakap nang mahigpit
At sa akin bumalik 
Ang pakiramdam ng iyong yakap
Noong ika'y nabubuhay pa
At agad akong nagising
Yakap ang unan
Umiiyak, pabalik sa reyalidad

Day 317 of 366: System

When the system is against you
Working towards your demise
Not even you hardest push 
Or your smartest move
Can nudge what is affixed
And your hardwork means nothing
As you see those who do less
Thrive more than you do
Frustrating it is

Monday, November 11, 2024

Day 316 of 366: In pain

I wish to live comfortably 
Where I wasn't applauded by resiliency
Rather there is a proper system
In which I can thrive 
Without sacrificing myself 
Where I can rest comfortably 
When I feel myself declining 
Now I am in extreme pain
But I have to power through 
As all the days I would

Sunday, November 10, 2024

Day 315 of 366: Slowly

Inching closer to my goal
My long wait will bear
Slowly walking towards it
My excitement is incalculable 

Saturday, November 9, 2024

Day 314 of 366: None

My body is heavy 
Everything I used to love
Becomes mundane
I feel lost
I feel...
Nothing

Friday, November 8, 2024

Day 313 of 366: Swept

Live the way you want to
And do what ever you want
Just make it within the bounds
That you will not hurt anyone
Once you made sure of it 
You can live freely 
Then whatever they will say
Will be swept with the wind

Thursday, November 7, 2024

Day 312 of 366: Slowly

Barely moving on
Carrying forward as I can
Exhausted to bits 
But trying as much
Rewards will be due 
I just need patience more
It will get easier from here 
I just need a little more

Wednesday, November 6, 2024

Day 311 of 366: Bottleneck

It shouldn't be this hard
It shouldn't be this inconvenient 
The price of progress 
Shouldn't be ours to pay 
There shouldn't be this much
Struggle to commute everyday 
It's draining to an extent
I cant believe people have to do this
For every single day
I'm sick of it

Tuesday, November 5, 2024

Day 310 of 366: Sprint

It'll be tougher from here on out
I don't know how I'll pull through 
But I know I'll manage 
Like many times before
And survive once more
When I think I wouldn't 
Prayers up
Feet on the ground 
Eyes forward
Full sprint ahead

Monday, November 4, 2024

Day 309 of 366: Persistence

I hope it works well
And things go for the better
I hope at the end of the tunnel
There is a light waiting 
I hope the suffering and all
Becomes all too worth it
Because as it stands
My body can do so little 
Exhausted beyond means
Lost again all reason 
My mind and body
Is pushing the limits 
So now I pray 
Things work for the better

Sunday, November 3, 2024

Day 308 of 366: Double Standard

When people see
A middle class enjoying
The fruits of their labor
They riot as if
The middle class
Sole purpose is to survive
But when those in power 
With millions
Even billions at their disposal
They applaud
As if those didn't come
From the backs
Of the working class
Because when the powerful
Earns something
Through constant exploitation 
Of the working class
People cheer
But god forbid
A working class
Getting something for themselves

Day 307 of 366: More

It was fun
I got tired 
But the good kind
To more of these

Friday, November 1, 2024

Day 306 of 366: Rest

I'm tired 
It's all souls day anyway
Give it a rest
