After the Rain, There's a Rainbow
Music is a big part of my life, and on that note I haven't recorded a song in a very long time. About 4 - 5 months give or take. Until today, i decided to pick up a pad and a pen and in a span of 4 hours or so, this was the outcome. From the instrumental, to the lyrics, to the vocals themselves. Yup, all in one artist. lol.

Book of Notions: Part Two
…And We Fell Astray, Forever
The last time the suns rays that glittered across your eyes
Right before we sheared our paths, was only a matter of time
The last time you stared in my eyes and stood so closely
It was the last time my heart was inside your reach
I never hoped we would succumb to make this decision
And decided never to cross our paths again
Because we fell astray from each other, forever
Into a world where what we gain, is lost for pain
I can’t tell you that I won’t miss you, because I know I will
Every time I think of how it started, it does hurt, it does kill
From now on, we can only live in our thoughts with time
And every gaze we’ll share, I’ll know I crossed your mind
Realize that it’s already hard to erase these thoughts
To be completely apart, for now, is best for me
Don’t take this as hate, I promised I would never
But then again, I promised we’d never fall astray

Book Of Notions: Part One
Pen and My Pad
I live and let die
watch sunset, sunrise
with my pad and my pen
I’m symbolizing each line
The thoughts come thorough
first buried in furrow
hearing my heart speak
will there be tomorrow?
My self conscience pays bond
the pen replies to my thoughts
I hear in my writing
will forever be strong
angst and vibes are filled in my breath
pushing top limits I speak in deep depths
the lines on the paper as closing to thin
I speak in deep depth with my pad and my pen
I wrote this poem when i was 13 or 14, I don't quite remember. But yeah, i managed to win bronze in the poetry.com contest and was actually, pretty surprised. And since then, I like to think my talents have sprouted.

Fundamentals of Decisions & Choices (Selfishness)
This brings me to my point…
Choices are becoming more and more selfish, more self-desiring, more self-indulging. But who is to blame for these choices when humans are the ones making them? Nowadays, it seems like when one makes a decision, the result should benefit only him or her. And upon making that decision, the factor of the decision should only constitute that single person, and not ONE person other than them. Selfishness, I should say, is the root of all evil. Mostly everyone has fear of one another. Not the basic fear of one being greater, but the fear that roots from a cynical mentality of others achieving their dreams. Selfishness, places grudges upon each other, selfishness places a periphery in which one is bound to his own constraints. When one forgets his own outcome in order to bring down others, these constraints label one at the pinnacle of their selfishness.
But it seems like I’m babbling on different aspects of selfishness…
Dependence
Most people regard dependence as a weakness, but is it really when there is no other option?
Take into consideration, one human in need of another’s ability. Should you say, that human is dependent on others, because he does not have the ability himself? Is that human not forced to be dependent? Because in the end, isn’t being dependent on others just a way to bring yourself to an ultimate downfall? So would you really blame the human for not being self-sufficient?
If blamed…
Does that human not have the right to deny it? Does he not have the right to argue to the point of fury? When that point of anger and frustration is reached, can you really blame him?
When put into the real world, many convey the message of being self-sufficient at a particular age factor. Mentality and personality would depend on that age factor to vary enormously from person to person, would it not? Societal labels are a way to portray one’s weakness when they might not even exist.
Now follow along closely because labeling someone of dependency is closely related to selfishness... For some, that is...
Rooting back to the fundamental of a selfish choice, this fundamental is rooted from the choice made when a human is to label another as dependent of others. To some it might be to their advantage (selfishness). When you ignite a weakness in someone by labeling them as dependent of others, they lose an integral part of themselves and this way that human being has become lesser then the selfish one.
Whether you agree or not, you cannot deny the fact it is true for some if not most.
Just my two cents.
Oh, but then again...why two cents, when it's only "a penny for your thoughts?"
