On that Shore


It still feels like dream,
Like it never happened,
But it did.
I still feel the emptiness,
The pain,
The loss,
And the numbness.
I hear a laugh and I just remember,
How much joy yours brought.
I see the fallen leaves,
And I think you left too fast,
I think you were still meant to see more,
You were still meant to see the sun shine and the flowers bloom.

An amazing person you were,
Always there to help,
You shared my ups and my downs,
You anchored me firmly and strongly.
But I guess God needed you more,
And I cannot ask Him why,
No matter how much I want to.
I do believe you are up there somewhere,
In a good place singing with angels.
I am jealous they get to enjoy your light,
While I am stuck here missing you.

From where the sun now stands,
I am glad I knew you,
I am happy you lived,
I am happy that you were happy.

I hope that at the beginning of my end,
When my west gets amber-tinted,
I will see you again,
On that shore so bright.

Madly

I am madly in love with you. I love you madly. It is insane how much I love you.   Why do people put insane or mad with love together? It has never sat well with me. Not when I had no idea of what feelings were and definitely not now that I know how what  feelings are and how confusing they can be. I see how people melt at those words. I see how their eyes glow. I see how they are at loss for words. How speechless they get. How they soon forget their world and choose to revolve their lives around the sayer of those words. I see  them forget themselves. It is seems to me they are enchanted. Smiling but for fading roses. Eating but never  getting full. They dance to the music of dark knights and angels with many faces.   No. I don’t like it when madly and in love are together. It feels sinister. My heart will beat fast I don’t deny. But not because I feel my insides melting, releasing butterflies in my stomach. Not because it will cause words to get s...

God is As Simple

I was born and raised Catholic and I love being Catholic but through the years I have come to learn that the whole idea of religion is overrated and that churches limit us. I think to understand the Creator, people sat down and developed ideas to try to explain who God is and how to worship him. Don't get me wrong, I respect people and their way of worship. I just don't like it when some of these people criticize others or think they have a one way ticket to heaven because their way of worshipping God is superior to others.  Some might label me a bad Catholic christian but in all honesty, I don't think understanding the whole complex doctrine and knowing the number of garments a priest dons for mass matters. Then why do I still go for mass you might ask or why have I not changed churches? I go because there is where I find peace. There is something ethereal and majestic about cathedrals especially when I find myself alone on some random day. As crazy as it may soun...

21st Century Twenties

The freaking hellish twenties of century 21. Pheewwh!! I know I'm not the only one feeling this especially about the mid 20's. It is such a mental time. It is a time when you have to remind yourself each day that everything will be okay because the world is not what you thought. It is a time when you learn that peace of mind is actually something people struggle to find. It is a time when you cannot seem to understand life or God. When you will roll through all emotions at once. You will be sad then happy, high then low. It is a time when you learn that "I- don't -know- what -I- feel" is also an emotion by itself. When relationships will end without drama but you still hurt as hell, probably even more than if it had ended with drama.  It is a time when you will unlearn the things you learnt. When people will move to upper niches in their lives and you will feel left behind. People will be getting married and having children and you will feel lik...
