Blue Isn't Sad At All

Blue Isn't Sad At All by Simplymarrimye


Blue is the color of the sea 
reflecting the sky
We see the beauty of day... 
so promising
We see the wonder of the beach... 
so inviting.
The sand is smooth 
yet blazing hot
It welcomes any soul 
to be cuddled and embraced.
There's euphoria and hope
upon looking up
It's brightness constantly glares
The atmosphere is an Arcadia of bliss
We wish it will never fade...
and never disappear.
We are sad when we feel blue 
but not in this case
The color means... 
seeking peace and tranquility
It's nostalgic, persistent and determined.


LIKE Poles Attract


Like poles attract by simplymarrimye


LIFE is not only 
a mixture of
sweet and sour
liquid and solid
high and low
smooth and rough
MAN and WOMAN...
but anything in between
is no longer unusual.


Why do some people prefer something different? We all have choices to make. We are born with own distinct identities and as we develop into an adult capable of knowing and reasoning, we are exposed to an environment with extremely wide variety of values, social norms, rules of conduct, customs and practices. As human beings, we have the desire to understand every aspect of the world we live in. Our natural curiosity of the many things around us will lead us to defining our own self and bring us to a journey of limitless exploration.

Who are we? What are we?

These questions now lie beneath the realm of self individuality.

The discussion of gender preferences are predominantly articulated for centuries by philosophers, religious leaders and writers. From ancient times to today, there are countless reasons and diversity of opinions regarding the theories of engaging to same gender relationships.

To live life as how we desire to live it.


Nowhere To Find

Nowhere to find by simplymarrimye


We've been to many places
have met people along the way.
We've heard some good stories
and weathered some bad days.


The past is no longer visible
yet remained in our reverie
It has brought weeps of sorrow
and tears of pride and glee.


Our hearts may keep seeking
the love that is lost.
The quest may take a lifetime
we have to pay what it costs.


You have loved and failed...
but whatever reason is behind such struggle
you have to keep your heart alive
even the search has come full circle.



"Are You Tired Enough?"

"We'll never get tired of loving.. It's the hurting that drains  our body and spirit." by simplymarrimye


How many times 
do you have to keep saying...
"It's over!"
but your heart can hardly 
bear the loss.


How many times 
do you have to believe in 
promises...
when trust is gone and words are doubtful?


How many times
do you have to give up and
turn your back
if your heart overpowers your mind?


How many times
do you have to be beaten
and bruised
before you surrender and give up the fight?


Maybe, you never get enough of
love and hurt
until you are emotionally 
drained, exhausted and tired.

Looking At The Brighter Side






I know it's been a while...
Things changed but for the better.
Some are not meant to unfold
yet there are good ones that happened.

I lost track but now I'm back.
Hoping for the best to come.
I wish to forget the past...
keep the faith and move forward...

I've never been so passionate
to write what's on my mind...
This time I want  greener crops
that will bring abundance...

Retrospect

Retrospect by simplymarrimye


The beauty of life may come in handy
Morning brings new hope and fresh starts
As we open our eyes... we gaze upon sunrise
As we sleep at night... we glance at moonlight.

Look around... a brief smile may capture your soul
A vivid retrospect flashes back from a distance
Leaving a shadow of someone in your past
An awakening of the mind... made you deaf and blind.

Light is what you see when darkness subsides
Now you can seek whatever  had been lost
Let the wounds be healed by the passing of time
It's your turn to restore, recharge and regain to finally relieve the pain.


The Bridge Of Life

The Bridge Of Life by Simplymarrimye


The bridge of life may be strong or weak
It may be high but never too low
It may be long but never too short
We start in one end...to reach the other side.

It is a journey to a destination
We keep going without obstacles
We may halt, if something hinders.
It needs support to carry the weight of heavy loads.

The bridge of life may collapse or fall
When its foundation is shaky and unstable
It may break apart and leave us hanging
With nothing to hold... but only faith to lead the way.

"We'll cross the bridge when we get there."
Whatever kind of bridge we have in our life
If we remain firm and determined...
No bridge is long or weak enough to make us stumble down.
