Virtues: Freedom

so you think you can shout and be greatly heard?

with the ocean underneath can you really felt?

your eyes were open but do they see to care?

the smell of deceit surrounds you unprepared

you run and tasted reality that no one finds

yet you buried them underneath the crime?

breath in and breath out but do you really live?

oh how far can you go ignoring what to reach?

said you were free but you constantly bleed

well i think you surely were deceived

you fool yourself just to make believe

boundless, limitless, no one can defeat

can you really spread your arms wildly free?

when everybody believes they own what they feed

feed the ground, feed the mind, whoever needs

they will take everything you own and leave

your senses will be awaken as time goes on

here comes the reality you’ll regret to know 

you believe you were free until you get old

and then you’ll realize you were barred all along

maybe you were free that moment you were born

but then you inhale the air the world has offered cold

now you sadly know you are in a bigger debt

but don’t you worry freedom is never dead

surrender to Jesus and not to this world

and then you will see how freedom really works

this time it will be your turn to spread the word

with every senses be freed, tell them how freedom works.

Virtues: Freedom

I'm a Writer

I'm a writer, if anyone tries to wonder

I can go where no one else can wander

With a flip of a page, i travel

I can make your day,

i can make your life a novel

I'm a writer, with a pen and a paper, the world I conquer.

You can come with me if you want, only if you have a heart that falters ..

(a poem collaboration with Berto the Infinite)

Virtues: Courage

Inhale, exhale, leap

Still you wait for the beat

Wondering if it’ll cut deep

Or maybe you won’t feel a thing

Care not for your heart

It will stop shouting hard

But don’t feel sad afterward

It’s your choice not to hear it out

The thing you should know

Is the truth that time is short

If you think it’s your purpose

Then why do you keep it false?

It’s okay to take it slow

As long as you’re moving close

You may not reach your gold

But at least you have tried a dose

We fear what we don’t know

But that’s the beauty of the unknown

Living a life unpredictable

Only God knows the tomorrow

So have courage and look above

Take that step and move forward

If He knows what’s going on

Then why fear the unknown?

But before this poem end

Fear is essential, I must tell

Seek God’s voice, please be sure

Or useless courage will show
