WHO AM I

"When will my reflection show who I am inside?"

The words spoken by Mulan, my favorite princess

Words of wisdom

Words that question gender identity, self, and who you are expected to be

In today's society everything can be experienced online

Sex, love, hate, happiness, freedom, and so much more

There's no longer a search for what's outdoors, much less what's on the inside

I've never been one to mask who I am

To censor myself is to stop being an artist and I am my own masterpiece

WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE

What would I change?

I would change the frowns

Change the hidden smiles

Change the selfishness with which people are crowned

Change the way people view each other

Change the hate in our hearts

And make everyone a lover

The poor in spirit and in money

I would change that as well too

I want them to know not everyday will be blue

Change what people think about different thoughts

And let others know, true happiness can’t be bought

See, we live in a world where negativity flies

Honesty and purity are taken away, nothing left but lies

I want to change the world as we know it

I want to let other know they have light and they should show it

This fake façade that society has exemplified

I want it gone forever, so no longer will people be mortified 

Mortified by the color of their skin, the sex of their gender,

So no longer will we be hindered

We’re waiting on the world to change

One step at a time

I believe in humanity

So no longer will we be blind

Get Up

I get up in the morning,

I pray, I get ready for school,

I go to school and count down from the minutes remaining till I go home.

Everyday seems exactly the same, so why do I get up. 

I get up because I love my family, I love my friends, 

And I will walk this god-forbidden road until it ends.

I get up for the changes in my life.

For knowledge that someday, I will get it right.

I wake up because I know it'll get better,

And I know that my dreams will someday be reality and not just perfectly constructed letters.

I get because I believe in me.

She saw the waves crash a storm against cheeksCracking hurricanes into men's eyesDroplets of rain trickled endlessly into puddles of veinsCreating a reserve of rainy day puddles to look back on.It takes oceans of days to find someone you loveBut it took her a splatter of a day to know she would Love him more than any other sand soaked person.He fell like hail onto her crisp paperDrenching her words in ink.Love hit her like snow melting against the warmth on his side of the bedShe knew she would always love the feeling of water trailing down her tears.He kissed her flesh to burn a trail into underwater cavernsLeaving a page of lustful words on chilled skinHe would sip from her dreams each dayJust to taste a small drop of her insecuritiesHe taught her lessons of light that she had yet to understandHow her pain was key to feeling human She would breathe a whisper of his name on lipsTo drive monsters back to baysAs rivers and lakes swallowed planets and moonsHer sun would rise to greet that warmth of smiles stretched across his eyesHe would shiver at night, naked against inquisitionthey would wrap arms into each other's blanketsQuietly whispering as the sun rose about nothingNo matter how close he stood to her brightnessHe would still feel aloneThough only occasionally She shook earthquakes into his memories  She was a passionate person who would burn fires into men's soul at a glanceShe stole anger into love to turn pebbles into rocksTurning soft spoken men into bright baubles of florescent pensHe turned from lesser ink into the glow in the dark stars on her bright night skiesThey saw each other with bright blue souls instead of dark brown eyesHe wanted to marry her beauty Not her smiles or sill eyesBut her deep dark inside that held a beauty she would never begin to understandThey would buy from Poseidon a bucket of waves to shareTo keep the horizon hidden away So maybe they could be the only special ones to see nature love each otherAfter all these years the sun still lights up the earths eyesThe rivers became her home as she stood starkNakedAgainst the noise and broken worldsJust so she could have another place to call homeWith him.People act as though existing means obligationsObligations to be heardWhen in reality to be heard is impliedShe spoke of oceans oftenOf walking with waves to crest over dolphinsOf standing bear in salt runs as wounds burned He stood in her mind like a permeant fixtureSimilar to lamp postsAnd old housesAlways thereReliableYet rustyHer lips were fire that burned bright on his skinShe told honesty to men and burned love #kuturanki

OUR PLANET IS DYING

The earth, so cold, the people upon it made her that way.She gives and gives and all we do is take. It's a game of cat and mouse.We of course are the cat, greedy and In need of something warm and inviting. The mouse just wandering, not knowing what it is facing against.Its only a matter of time   Mother has been here for years. Years before our time.She did great, her complexion oozed of  flamboyant colors.That's was long ago, photographs don't even do her justice.It only took so little years and now she's bedridden.  The beginning to our deaththe only thing we knew was stable was the ground below us.Relationships always started off strong but with time most crumble.She didn't. She loved and provided for you. That kindness wasn't returned. Mother I have failed you. You're so strong and I so weak.Mother I love you with every breath I take. From every tree I see,you give me the strength to go. Mother I am killing you.From every piece of trash I leave for someone else to getKnowing that's just an excuse to do it myself.Mother I'm sorry. I didn't do enough. I didn't use my voice.I only did the bare minimum. Mother the photographs are fading.The memories, the ones worth keeping are burned up.Mother I will do better.Mother I love you

Miracle or What?

So before i tell you this story i suggest you watch "MIRACLE FROM HEAVEN"..........

I was miserable today at the office because my work was just going slow when a friend and his 10years old daughter came to see me, then we got talking with my friend not knowing his daughter was listening to all our conversations,while i was complaining about how much i needed a miracle in my life, then she said Uncle Ranki can i tell you a story about a little girl.

there was a little girl about my age, and she fell sick, she was diagnosed with cancer of the bone and it spread all over her body, there was no cure for her disease, then one day she heard her parent arguing about her, and the dad said to her mum, the only thing we need right now is a MIRACLE and we cant afford it right now so we just keep praying that we get a miracle, then the girl went to her room and picked her piggy-bank and she broke it and she took the $1.50 that was inside and she snuck out of the house and went to the pharmacy and she asked the pharmacist to give her a MIRACLE which she thought was a drug and he said to her lil girl we dont sell MIRACLE here and she kept insisting for a miracle then the pharmacist now said to her, go home bend on your kneels and pray to GOD only him gives MIRACLES, then she now said okay and then she insisted he collects the $1.50 for his services and he collected the money then she went straight home, closed her room and went on her kneels and she said this words, "" I HAVE NOT PRAYED TO YOU BECAUSE MY PARENT ALWAYS DO THE PRAYING BUT AM HERE NOW AND I WANT TO START BY SAYING THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME SICK BECAUSE I WOULDN'T HAVE KNOWN THAT YOU ARE THE ONE WHO GIVES MIRACLES, I AM ON BENDED KNEELS TO ASK FOR ONE OF YOUR MIRACLES.. THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME WELL."". and she stood up and went to her parent and said dont worry dad we just got a miracle, and she said can we go to the hospital for my last check up, surprisingly when they went to the hospital she was without cancer according to the reports.

she made a move, she had faith. so my friend's daughter now said to me that i should stop complaining and make a move, now as lil as she may look at that moment she spoke sense to me..

Forgiveness

Sometimes we spend time asking who is responsible or who to blame, whether in a relationship, in a job or with the people we know. We miss out some warmth in human relationship in giving each other support. After all, shouldn't forgiving someone we love be the easiest thing in the world to do? Treasure what you have. Don't multiply pain, anguish and suffering by holding on to unforgiveness. If everyone can look at life with this kind of perspective, there would be much
fewer problems in the world. Take off all your envies, jealousies,
unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and
fears and you will find things are actually
not as difficult as you think.
