Kinda late but a Valentine’s Day Poem 😘 “Ours is a shared history. All that we’ve accomplished, we accomplished together. How we move is still a mystery but the chemistry we have is getting better. I could flatter your ear with a thousand ways of how I love you or if how if I had a flower for every thought for you in my garden flowers would infinitely accrue. I could describe how blind I’ve been or how I thought I was content. I could remind you how you’re heaven sent. But today, I just want to say I love you...unconditionally. You’ve could’ve had your pick from the the world but every time you chose, you chose me. This day will pass and the chocolate might get stale, and the flowers might wither and the cards may get frail. But this love will prevail for another 365. So Happy Valentines to you, the Crimson Double of my life.” -V.K #valentinesday2019 #love #poetry #loveprevails https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt5cztSh786UKpsMZyyAcn7vU71b-JBz8yZQFk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8e5o13ai8voa

Can’t forget your name, in order to keep control These needs of mind feels like they’re about to take a toll Still missing you like crazy It’s ok. Images still appear hazy Ride the wave of memories No regret for the way you made me No reset to go back to the way things used to be I can’t get over you I’m still as can be Like a tattoo I want your love permanently on me Catching feelings: condition’s incurable Release the hold and devour the soul #randomthoughts #poetry #vkane https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs_lD_-B88HrKEH3SQjpK4VxjeBvSY2SC62zt80/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xft9clglz88x

Meditate, meditate Medication cause me to elevate Get away from the world, need to take a break Get a sip of her waters, need to hydrate Demons around trying to push me to my limit But my path so vivid and I’m so driven She not with the gimmicks, she waste no minutes Time’s limited for both us, so we work with what’s given No place in our world for critics or contradictions She gifted with not being timid; told me she the key that frees me from my prison She’s the reason that I have no limits There’s no reason to hurry, my worries fade into nothing. Attempts to make the moments last before next morning The days will pass but there will always be discussion Something deeper than the carnal, her energy keeps me yearning So until my next visit, I’ll go back to conforming, performing necessary tasks Until I can leave it all behind and give you something that can forever last. #day57 #randomthoughts #poetry #vk

I invade all your thoughts You look and get caught Staring at my general direction Will this be the moment you speak your confessions I aspire to let you partake of my desires I aspire to take your soul somewhere drier Midnight hour our mission becomes nocturnal Sanity lost, your behavior reflects what's internal You speak of a past: a history of rage Tragedies so dark they have locked you in a cage The fallacies you're taught changed you in so many ways But it doesn't deter me from being apart of your days How does one behave when admiration becomes addicting? When words works its ways around curves, movements become constricting. But don't be frightened, if only you knew The way you feel about me is how I feel about you #day51 #randomthoughts #poetry #vk

“I should seen it coming; blinded by my lust Gave you plenty reasons to believe that in me you could trust But when I left that house I was leaving behind the last of us When I return this time, there would be nothing left to discuss Heartbreaker but I still believe that something exist But you ignore my advances, I've lost the taste of your kiss In love with every girl that walks inside my heart They said till death, her dying love finally did it's part Now I'm searching, looking, fighting, praying for you Now I'm hurting, thinking how could I've been such a fool Never fond of your presence but now it's something I miss Looking for a means to replace but sorrow reminds me to reminisce You're only mine when I'm lonely, I was always busy when you phoned me When I can home late you never gave me the third degree Now I'm coming home to empty plates and a bigger bed The scars I bear are my alone, your image forever haunting me inside my head”#poetry #randomthoughts #vk #day50

“We like to think we'll be alright We like to think we'll be fine once we lie down for the night But internally, mentally we deal with battles we must fight Hearts in turmoil begging for something to cure our plights Late nights and early mornings Same routine and our lives get boring They try to increase morale and that's when the fire's roaring The days blend and it's out of control. We need answers and they keep stalling The life we chose deprives us from being with our treasured moments Counting days to just to stay focus, keeping family close so we remain unbroken The days are trying pushing us to give up hope and We hope they noticed but we're never open So I bury myself with my words and my pen I greet the day with a smile and ask everyone "how has it been" Silver lining is hard to find but it's easier with a friend Easier with less demands, easier when you have a plan. Worlds crumble but we find a way not to cave in” #day43 #poetry #randomthoughts #vk

A mother's work is never done Always working hard so we can continue to have fun Hands always rough so my path can remain smooth The meaning of sacrifice: they give so we have nothing to lose Mother begets daughter and they become wives Sons become husbands and guard them for the rest of their lives Wives become mothers and love like mothers do An unfair weight the world gives but mothers will always see it through There's no way I could express thanks for the life that you made When times were get tougher, by my side you never strayed There's no way I could express thanks for time you spent In this hell on earth and still remained heaven sent There's no way I could express thanks for the mold you provided Shaping into a gentleman, a scholar, a leader never shortsighted There's no way I could express thanks for always being in my ear One day can't compare to what you accomplish 365 days a year But today we honor you...you that we hold dear There's no way I can truly express thank you but to be grateful that you're still here #day39 #poetry #mothersday #vk #randomthoughts

Wishing to be released of your vices; this can't happened easily You can always be found were you appetite needs you to be To eat, to drink, to flood your veins, To the sinner, the world's a den of iniquity where no one shares the blame Human heart but a body of demon Temptations wants control so your soul takes a beating Slowly into decent, succumb to all your fears On the surface, you're calm but nothing stops the tears #day38 #randomthoughts #poetry #vk

Trying figure out what's on your mind while your running through mine. I'm trying not to let you leave this time. I've Spent nights sleeping with your soul, wonder when I can sleep with you whole. I wonder if there's an empty spot fill with dust, if I cleaned it out could I fill that hole I'm Addicted and I'm falling too deep Afflicted now i can't fall asleep Conflicted and I'm pondering was there something then that could just some rekindling I know your days are spent mostly working. Hopefully you haven't given on the search and hopefully when you remember me, you're looking in the mirror and you see yourself smirking Reminded of a handsome King Reminded of the love I bring Reminded that we're aligned to redesign The intricacies of love and time Reminded that you're the light in the world; never leaving me blind Forever in my heart, never to leave my mind #unreleasedpoem #day35 #poetry #randomthoughts #vk

“You try to help them But they feel above reproach Just pain fuels their drive Story of the Sideline Watch! They suffer in silence You can’t approach them Enough is enough For them, it’s better to leave Than continue the path If only they saw Their devices brought their end Constant discontent A heart split in two What does their interest lie with? The past or present? May peace find its way We may not understand why But at least we tried” #day34 #haiku #poetry #randomthoughts #vk

“My beautiful sky She welcomes me with the sun Rays touched by Midas Complexion flawless Her blue eyes and and curvy clouds Improves disposition Enrich my dull world Quench my earthly desires Let me fly near you My head in your clouds Peaceful dreaming in your eyes My beautiful sky” #randomthoughts #haiku #poetry #vk

“Teach you a lesson Up to something criminal Revenge will taste sweet I want to be strong But turning the cheek seems hard Hurt to many times When darkness does fall Peace will not exist in me You shall know no rest Revenge taste so sweet A dish of karma with tears But will I remain?” #requestedhaiku #haiku #poetry #notsorandomthoughts #vk

My girl spoke nothing but fucking TRUTH. Now that’s this kind of Women we need our girls to look up too.

[ladygreytea76]

Who is she?

[enigmazing-blog]

Sarah Kendzior.

She’s an expert in authoritarianism and has accurately predicted almost everything that is happening - her unflinching insight and analysis is terrifying but invaluable right now. Well worth following on twitter.

fucking

why did i never see this until now

[thessalian]

You know what saddens me?

How fast she has to talk.

If a man were saying that, he’d be going slowly to emphasise points. He’d be indulging in the occasional ‘you know’ or other filler words. He’d be able to stop for breath. Notice that she didn’t do that. She had the whole thing memorised and she got it out with barely a pause to breathe.

Why?

Because she expected to be interrupted.

What she said was awesome and is absolutely true, and is frankly underlined by the fact that she had to say the whole thing all at once for fear that she wouldn’t be able to say it at all if she so much as stopped to breathe because one of those older white men sitting around her would interrupt and roll right over her.

[adamthegirl]

what i notice is the guys in the audience sitting motionless, declining to applaud, though every word she spoke was truth and she spoke it with fire. it’s not the content, it’s a powerful, intelligent woman speaking truth with fire that they choose not to support.

“Expecting changes Reaching out for familiar Unfamiliar eyes We place faith in them That an old dog can learn tricks But they seldom change Paths unchangeable Leaving tempered hearts and minds Looking for freedom Expecting changes Do not want it to happen Let it run its course” #day31 #haiku #randomthoughts #poetry #vk

[vincentekane]

“Weaver of spells: you confuse the mind and break my heart She’s says I’ve been tripping: I’ve been falling from the start Conjuring up fallacies, you’re the reason for this love I can barely see, the reason I can’t just simply be. It’s absurd the way I feel These feelings I can’t conceal Must be dreaming but she assures me it real Must be a thief but she assure me that she would never steal She’s my weakness; My Achilles heel My heart I can no long still When Love wants, Love will Just a fish in a sea that she finally reeled All for you, it all comes true I always knew what it was coming to Paths converged and lead us two One another, no want for others, no need to wonder...” #day30 #randomthoughts #poetry #vk
