“Idle Thoughts”
Stuck in Idle times
With a wandering mind
With no way to impede its growth
Want to move forward but feet
Captured by anxiety
Lived years but nothing to show
Pray for better days
And each day I change
A gold glow shows from my soul
Feel a break through coming
It’s not all for nothing
Earth quaking from beneath my soles
And as the ground splits
My body goes with it
With ease, well, how did she know
Let nature run its course
On who I was before
I knew what I know
Under the Eiffel
My Love
Meet me under the tower
Not to french kiss
But to enjoy each others company
somewhere foreign
Eyes locked
Our friends think we boring
Jokes on them
Your my best
Amigos first
Lovers Second
Our convos
Amazing
Thirsting for more
All under the Eiffel
Laisse moi entrer
N'ayez pas peur de l'amour
Peace & Love
The Lost King
Citizens please smile
Freedom does not have to be ruled
Threats of old nooses
Loose ends
Opposition hang in every word
Media secretly loves it
We seen how they covered public enemies
Power behind the lips
Citizens please do not run
In the freedom
We can change it
Scare tactics from the past
Broken promises
We seen this movie before
His lies are digging the hole
Question Is who is going to lay in it?
Peasants usually pay the price
Usually with their last pennies
Poor liberty
Peace& Love
True ROMANCE
Love What you do
Do what you Love
The SWEET life
If you feel empty
Just go do what you are meant to do
LIVE
Leave the toxicity in the past
What’s your true LOVE?
Your dreams are closer than you think
With a clear mindset you can reach the stars
Focus on how to get there
There will be obstacles
There will be doubters
It won’t be perfect
But reaching your goals would be the best feeling in the world
Like drinking wine with your SOULMATE
Smoking a cuban cigar reading a best seller
ROMANCE
Be obsessed with it
Let them think you crazy
Growth is understanding you are on your own while on the path
Remember greatness can be lonely
The finish line will bring both LOVE and hate
Its your job to decipher
Growth is knowing your
True ROMANCE
Summer Vibes
We can smile again
We can breathe
We can dance in the rain
Sun and blue skies
People throwing shade
Take what is owed and whatever we crave
Sunglasses and palm trees
Every where we go feel like heaven
Enjoy every feeling this summer
Enjoy the campfires and smores
We just have a few Summers left
Treat everything like a blessing
Cause as you know we are not promised tomorrow
Forget your sorrow
You deserve the Summer
From beach days in the sand
To Bar-b-que days with the fam
Sunglasses and laughs
Whatever you do
Get out
Feel free Feel live
Enjoy the summer Vibes
Peace & Love
Cash & June
An eternal flame
It can last a lifetime
First met when committed with someone else
But the story goes
You have one soulmate
My heart pounds
Just for one
Stuck in the false steps
Dreaming of you
Hoping to see you
While i walk the line
I will rather have 1% of you
Than live without your smile
Your quirks
Friends first
Just a shoulder
Wrong timing i guess
Soon we will be attached
Cant say one name without the other
Legendary
The game of cat and mouse will be OVER
Our Love will be cemented
Rumors will tell a different story
But we will be far away
Too far to hear
Too far to pay them any attention
We keep stepping to our music
Modern day Romeo & Juliet
Bonnie & Clyde
Johnny Cash & June Carter
Peace & Love
Limitless
Sometimes I wonder if you fell
Prayers were answered
It is pretty amazing to see your smile
Sometimes I question who am I?
Do I deserve her
Her kisses are like honey, so sweet
Yet I thirst for more
Like water from a well on a humid day
We both have fears
But smile every time we stare at each other
Like a contest
Living without any secrets
Only our hearts matter
The whispers don’t
Rumors fall short
We too high
High off the drug that is you
High off the giggles
Love our rides home from the fake life
Love when we romance
We risk it all
Rumors keep circling
But we peddled away
People have thoughts of us wondering off
Not knowing they are lost
They look past their mirrors
Cannot face themselves
While we know who we are
That makes us… well…limitless
Peace & Love
Father Stretch My hands....
The almighty chooses you. In a world full of crabs in a barrel. Be the exception. Big up others. Support others. That is what a leader does. The sun is big enough to shine in multiple areas. Most of us wont get the message. Blinded by the he say-she say. Blinded by your own insecurities. Open your eyes. This is the ultimate playground. The world is yours (ours).
Remember… Live for your purpose. Your purpose will set you on the path of tranquility. That will lead to your FREEDOM.
Peace & Love

These Mothеrfuckers ain't stoppin' me...
Sometimes you doubt your journey. That’s normal. It don’t mean you quit. You have to push through it. At the other end of the struggle there is beauty. The light of the end of the tunnel. Life is like a roller coaster. While on the ride it seems like a lifetime but in reality, it’s only a minute plus. On average of course. Everything you want will be a fight. This is not supposed to be easy. Keep going. We feel alone by design. The path is meant for you and only you. But you have to make time to express the fear of losing your shit to someone close to you. I’m blessed to have people in my circle that understand the goal and listen. They also encourage me to keep it going. If you don’t have that don’t be afraid to reach out. Even if it's just in writing. With all that being said, SMILE. It doesn’t rain everyday. Love yourself. One last thing, not everyone is going to understand the vision. Art is understood by artists with a positive mindset. Start with a blank canvas. Paint your picture. That’s how you WIN.
Peace & Love
My rant is inspired by conversations with: Not your average Joe
Songs playing: Nas ft Miss Lauryn Hill “If I ruled the world”, Kanye West “Monster”, Beyonce “I’m that Girl”
Purple Summer Nights
We look up at the stars
One shoots from one side to another
We both make a wish
Mine is to be with you
I wonder
Yours?
At your favorite “spot”
Near the canal
Enjoying pleasant talks
From goals to dream catchers
We believe in love
it ain’t easy
But its worth it
Love we can make a playlist and listen to the music our heart desires. Love we can talk about our past & future. Holding hands while i drive. You lit my cigar. Smoke & my cologne fills the aroma. Your eyes tells me what you want to do to me. I love nights like this. I Miss vibes like this.
Peace & Love

Euphemism
My pen wanders aimlessly
scratching paper
with no real end game
no goal
I never have new material
not really
although occasionally I may hit the mark
or make a metaphor worth reading
I'm barely succeeding where it matters
because they all have the same meaning
I just word it differently
repetitive content
accredited to my loss
hellbent on reiterating
my inability to cope
and the blackness of my soul
emptiness
depression
and hopelessness
packaged pretty wih a bow
rhymes and similes
disguise despondency
mask melancholy
when they're described in a way that can flow
no matter which phrases I choose to use
the point is always the same
catchy lines hide disdain
carefully worded analogies contain
more pain within them
than could ever be felt physically
but they're merely stanzas
figures of speech
not warnings
or the reasoning behind my antisocial ways
not even slightly self criticism
it is symbolism
this is simply wordplay
“Venus”
Starting to realize the meaning of life
Whatever you attach to it.
Whatever your mind is amusing
That is what you’re doing.
What ever desires you crave
That’s what you’re abusing.
Whenever you are afraid
That’s what attract
Ceasing the thought of wanting you back
Old me
Old we
Realizing it can never be
Changing heart
Changing thought
Time and time again
Is your neighbor really your friend
Remove the masks
Dive deep within
Take a journey with me to my souls darkest corner
Ohhhh, how we mourn her
Being at the surface
Anxious and nervous
And loves to take a peak
At who has taken her place
A beautiful face
With a gorgeous soul
This new girl
That nobody knows
Not even me
Who is she
Ohhhh the beauty
Ohhhh the allure
Ohhhh how we adore her
Adorn her
Ohhhh how we mold her
Future ancient being
Life, now, seems so small
But holds so much meaning
“Ascertain the truth”
Why say things you don’t mean?
Just because you feel you don’t mean anything
To the people you once meant something to.
Why say things you don’t mean?
Just to bruise the ones
That hold a special place in your heart?
The spark of the rumbling of war.
Why say things you don’t mean?
To the people who mean everything
To this small place in your heart.
How could you?
Why say things you don’t mean?
Just to say anything
For the sake of saying something
Rather than saying nothing.
What do you mean?
Why say things you don’t mean?
To yourself.
Afraid you’ll never be better
Writing off the ending of your story.
Why would you do that?
Why say things you don’t mean?
When you could speak your truth
Afraid there’s no one listening
But there’s always someone listening to you.
Me.
So I sing
I sing
I sigh
Sighs of relief
This is me.
This is she.
Swimming to shore
Though unsure
Of what life’s to bring
Understanding the meaning of things
Super Blue
Her favorite color is blue. Like the sky. Shes tired of living in the cage. She wants to spread her wings. She wants to fly. On the verge of losing hope. Lost. All she has is her own LOVE. She leans on poetry to release her pain. No more tears left. Everyone she belived in has turned their back. It’s rare for the soul to come back from this. Nothing scarier. She is ready to make the jump. Her faith has been tested before. Failure is not an option. This time she feels SUPER. Something about falling in flat in your face. Make you feel invincible. Unbreakable. Her motto “This year win yourself”. Her motto is becoming her religion. The temple realizes what’s good for the soul. Can’t wait to document her progress. Once she takes flight and notices her heart has always been courageous. Some people heart pumps purple. Some pump red. Her heart pumps blue. Full of loyalty, depth, and confident. Rare traits for a cold world. She wants to LOVE. Doesn’t want to fall on the double edge sword. Her wisdom keeps her moving forward. She understands she’s a healer. Like the ocean in the Caribbean.
Peace & Love
Music that inspired this thought- H.E.R & Daniel Caesar “Best Part”
“New Beginnings”
Fear
Such a detrimental entity
Will consume you if you let it
Devour your dreams
Tarnish your tenacity
Convince you that
Because of mistakes
There’s no one left for me
Making you forget
You’re biggest supporter
Because you’ve always put others before her
Always wanting to maintain the peace
Never allowing her to be free to be
Speak her mind from her gut
Sing her hearts song with pure love
Accepting love
Radiating it willingly
Protecting her divine nature
Putting no one before her
Afraid of her own power
Been powerless for so long
Rewriting her wrongs
Sewing her seeds
Watering her garden with faith
Because fear has no more space here
I am... MADMAX w/ The vision
Yea i keep to myself. Sometimes I can be introverted. Look at what happens when someone opens up to you. Trust in me. Decisions & consequences. Even at my lowest I choose you. Even through the dark roads. I am the light that illuminates through your soul. So follow my heart. Don’t lose yourself in chasing it. No such thing as perfection. That doesn’t mean you keep practicing correction. Be easy with yourself. We stumbled. Your heart was in a good place. Can't save them all. But you can save yourself. We all dream. Seems like i’m the only one trying to live it. I won't apologize for trying to win for us. Keeping everything close to myself for now. You will find out when I make it rain. Some break codes. I stick to mine. I got this. Fuck regrets. “Some things I must confess. Spoke my truth, paid my debt”. Life can be so amazing if you let go. I swear this is the last time I let my ego down. I need it to gas myself to space. Fly by the doubters. The Vision is mine. Yea this time I keep the Vision to myself. This time I trust myself. Want to know?…You got me fucked up
Peace & Love
Song that inspired this rant- Kendrick Lamar “Count me out”
“Holding on”
Trying to take the biggest step of my life
Heart trying to tell me what’s right
Ignore all the noise
Follow the light
But the light keeps getting dimmer
By egos resistance to let me expand within
Ridicule or advice
Don’t know what’s going on in my mind
Trying hard not to lose it
So I wipe my eyes again
And keep looking forward
Can see the light again
But the light keeps getting dimmer
By egos resistance to accept someone as friend
And not see everyone as an enemy
That’s what ego portrays to me
Stopping me in my tracks
But I always fight back
Even though this time
The light is getting dimmer now
Getting harder and harder to find
Avoiding giving up on her
Let go of the concept of time
Let Mind run free in the land of creativity
Without the entrapment of rules and regulations
Create my hearts desires because demons
Are what I am facing
“Welcome to Self-Love Island”
Isolating herself from the influence of others
So she’s able to deeply discover
Who she truly is at her core
No inspiration from lover nor friend
Just a solo mission
Exploring deep within
The things she loves
The things she adores
Her dents and cracks
Her scars and sores
Learning to listen
From a space of understanding
Flying away from old ways
Praying for a safe landing
Remove negativity
Cleanse her soul
Accepting all parts of her
Young and old
Warm and cold
Admitting where she’s hurt others
Observing how she’s hurt herself
Accepting things not on her path
And leaving it for someone else
If she could stand in the ocean
Stop fighting the waves
She would float naturally
To where she’s supposed to be today
Learning to ride the tide
Without wondering why
Accepting the sun as well as the stars
Shut up and take action
Kids deserve to live. Action speaks volumes. Sad days like these happen way too often. Our children deserve better. The right & left will discuss politics. Meanwhile we attend more funerals. When will it be enough? Nothing will change. In reality they don't care about souls. They only see green. A piece of paper has more worth than a beating heart. R.I.P to the fallen.
Peace & Love
“Silver Linings”
The harder days
Make me pray harder for
Sunshine in my soul
Conscious and aware
That I won’t be here for long
But now feels like forever
Don’t know if it will get better
But I pray
For brighter days and forgiveness
For not knowing the right way
Broken compass
Don’t know how to navigate these things
Pray for you more than I pray for myself
And maybe that’s too selfless
Since I’ll never know if you do the same
All alone and feel so helpless
Think I’m aware
But my awareness is shattered
From the moment you told me
My story doesn’t matter
So instead of being The Mad Hatter
I pray
For brighter days in my soul
Because there will always be rain
Teaching myself how to weather the storm
Not be so ashamed
So I look to the stars
Knowing one day this
Will be my new home
Getting comfortable up there
For when the storm comes on
