Fascinating seeing your own reflection. On the inside, it seems to always feel like I'm getting to know myself. The truth is, a song isn't finished in the studio. For me, it is finished on stage. The final framing of a self-portrait immortalized at a moment's flee. It always feels new, uncomfortable, yet honest. There's no place to hide anymore. Say what you came to say. Do what you came to do. Just. Press. Play. #OpenMic #KavaCulture #indieartist #Journey #Reflections #Chapters (at Kava Culture) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmgpkq_uvyj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

End of Shift

We live in a world where there are more wishes than stars. So it’s hard to believe if all our prayers are heard. Our biggest hurdle is our own doubt-- our lack of know how. We simply do the best we can and when that’s not enough, we invent new strength and innovate new ways to achieve our ends. Relentless in our construction, we push for a goal that’s beyond our comprehension. What hard workers we are... Day in and day out. Driven, crazed, dishonest, lost, yet always punctual. Yes, we are always on time with destiny, even when it hurts to do so… Pushing towards nirvana, we star gaze on our lunch breaks. Taking only seconds to remember those we left behind and then it’s back to work again, hoping that one day it will all pay off. That one day it will all make sense. See in this life, we all clock in, and though some of us get to clock out early, in the end, we all get to home.

Young Naïve Heart

After awhile the faces look more and more alike. I wonder.. how did I get here? when did this happen? I just wanted to be happy. A break from the heartache. I just wanted a piece of what they had. I wanted to wear the smile that they wore. Express the joy that they took oh so for granted.. as if it were free. Was I so bad? Was I so unreasonable? But here I am. All I learned was that they were no different than I. Shattered, succumbed to the pain. A fear consequentially imposed by the young naïve heart. Cause at some point they were there too. At some point they thought it was okay, to be unguarded. They wore their heart on their sleeves, ignorant, foolish, and strong… but not for long. Believe it or not, their only clinging. Every moment as desperate as the last. Covered by smidgens of a mimicry of joy. Everything I witnessed. Every sentiment of joy expressed.. was equated to a torment deep beneath the flesh. Hidden yet manifested. And that’s the truth. No one wants to get hurt. No one wants to be abandoned. No one wants to lose. Cause at the end of the day, everyone just wants to re-live that never again live-long moment of the young naïve heart. - x ~Anime~

Little things

That night she laughed, she smiled, and she even had a few drinks. And though periodically she would check over her shoulder for me, somewhere inside.. I knew she found great comfort in knowing that I wouldn't go home without her. It’s the little things I thought. The little things that can make a girl fall absolutely in love with you. -x ~Anime~

[theeanime]

Everyday, I’m in a continuous battle to not let the deeds of others define how I view humanity in the whole.. Cause in a sense, the way I see the world.. Is the way I see myself.

This is the best I've ever felt since I was born screaming into this world.

People who strive to become stars are insecure. A man should be more like space.. to have everything, but need none of the credit. -x ~Anime~

Moons and Stars

Ya know..

I used to be really envious of them.. That is, until I realized, that I didn't want what everyone else had. See I learned that what I wanted.. nobody else had. Its understood that most ppl reach for the stars, in hopes that if they fail, they will land on the moon. Thats when I thought.. what about the people who don't reach for stars? What about the ones who look up at the night sky and say that "the stars aren't high enough?" See I discovered, what i will reach for.. no, what i will GRASP isn't limited by whats glued on the horizon. It wont cease nor end to what lies before me. Naw.. see if I fail, I wont land on any moons or stars. That's way to obscure.

See if I fail... I will land on THE FUCKING HEAVENS THEMSELVES. For the life I wish for is beyond the spectacles of any "dreamer." The LIFE I WISH for IS through the focals of a FUCKING GOD.

 Take a good look at me..

WHO DA FUCK DO YOU THINK I AM?!

Now you tell me whether your moons and stars are worth reaching for.

I was real envious till I realized, that I didn't want what everyone else had.. what I wanted.. nobody else had. -x ~Anime~

My dreams have always been bigger than me. I mean who would spend a lifetime striving for something of equal or lesser value to themselves. See In life, you don’t have to be great.. you just have to be better than you were.. -x ~Anime~

We die in the present so that we may relive our yesterday, or transcend into our dreams of tomorrow.

Memories of a time passed.

Just because we dont talk anymore, doesnt mean I dont care about you. I think about you everyday.. All the time.

Its hard for her to never know. Her thoughts clouded by the fogs of uncertainty. Its not who he is, but what hes capable of. Whats the true nature behind his harmless smile? Shes been hurt before, which is why she runs. And she'll keep running. Running endlessly until its just her and a shadow cast from the dimming lights of a faded dream. Who knew Loneliness would be the toll for the safety of the heart. -x ~Anime~
