Those who deny their contradictions resist the very nature of change. Do not trust the products of a stagnant mind, for they are unwilling to see a reality they did not create.

Today I will be
who tomorrow
I’ll despise
for my ignorance.

Fury

Do not confuse
my silence for apathy,
my stillness for calm,
my humor for joy.
These contrivances
are but a mockery
of the fury
I hold within.

Virtue

You cannot claim integrity if
you are not open to criticism.
True honesty takes courage.
Otherwise, it is just a cowards
claim to virtue.

Stars

You can chase the sun but you can never keep it.
Every day must come to a close.
It is then that you must make a choice:

befriend the stars or become the darkness.

Wolves

I stand at the threshold,
where futures become pasts
and all that exists is
what I've become.
I chose the path of solitude
and now it is time to move on,
for the night is long
and the wolves will not wait.

Stories

We all create stories to protect ourselves.
But eventually, when you are alone,
the silence will no longer bear your words.

Perhaps we are all afraid of the stories
we tell when no one is listening.
