Happened Under The Rainfall

Suddenly the roar from the skies falls down onto the earth and smashes into it with a flash, little drops start falling down, slowly caressing the fresh air as they come down to gently stay on the leaf of a rose, there it waits till the rest arrive behind and they start covering everything in the garden with a wet cloak, caressing softly the surface where they landed, they begin to assemble and then they slide down the rose’s stem, slowly, heavily, graciously. 

The wind starts blowing and moving the little leaves that hang on the trees, drops fall down faster, faster, their speed increasing, leaving behind the softness that they had before, the breeze is gone, and now the rain has began, the subtle mist disappears and the drops starts hitting on the windows on the doors the sound turning up, getting noisier, the cold breeze starts sliding everywhere the wind blows ferociously tossing away the drops of rain after slapping the surfaces. I stare at the once soft and gentle mist that covers the garden and the surroundings; everything seemed so peaceful and sweet.

The skies then turn from the light grey to a darker one, touches of brown start appearing on the high skies as the rain hits the garden and soaks it while the roars up above becomes louder and more frequent, the lightings crossing across the darkened sky, the clouds barely watchable unless a lightning went close their way. Outside in the street people start running, a little boy’s cries are mixed with the sound of the thunders and the rain. I move away from the garden’s view and watch through the street window across from it, the picture seems to have turned more aggressive.

A heavy thunder cuts all sound and a lightning, bright and shine, appears clearly before everyone’s eyes, showing all its might to the speechless viewers, then the wind turns around aggressively and shakes the trees carrying away some of their leaves, papers fly up carried by the invisible arms of the winds, the sound of the tree’s leaves holding tight and being forcefully shaken away rolls around the whole place, not staying behind the rain starts falling down harder, faster, taking down some of the leaves that were holding on, the cold starts chilling under the covers the garden starts getting smashed down by the furious rain, that rapidly turns from a rain into a storm and washes away the little roses and the daisies alike, flooding the entire garden. 

Cars start driving faster, speed increasing everywhere as they move down the wet streets looking at the rivers that have started to run at both sides, lightings multiply and thunders swallow silence, the doors of those who didn’t locked them start banging harshly against their frames. Screams come to my ears as the banging gets harder, I start getting a chill running through my spine with all the heavy banging. 

Some crashes cut through the  natures wrath, glassless windows are lamely banging against their frames as some of the people indoors let out a frightened scream, those unfastened windows start banging  all over the place, the earth starts to shake under our feet, we look up and the lamps starts circling around on the celling, some of the furniture creak next to the wall, crashing sounds run all over the streets, then it all goes dark, just some thunders but no lightning, the  storm seems to yield some space and the sound of the trees becomes mute, slowly it seems that everything is going back into place, very slowly, the lamps are still moving, very, very softly.

A curious head pops out and there’s a soaking wet street covered in papers, leaves and shattered glass. The rain has stopped and the wind has calmed itself, the earth stays still and the gray skies stand there above everyone's head, calm and resolute. Nature’s might was shown, quickly and briefly but still the damages were noticeable, standing there we look around realizing how it’s not us who are the rulers of the earth, but it’s the earth whom decides for how long we stall stand.

Hold On

It was all dark, so cold, so foggy, I could do anything in life, people said I had the potential and yet I just wanted to end it quickly, wanted to sleep and don’t wake up, and then you came along, and brought light to shine through my days, sparkles that would fill my nights and a hope to feel your warmth. 

We never met face to face, but very few people knew me so deeply like you do, you came into my life and love was a promise closer to my grasp, and joy filled my existence when I a small thought of you crossed through my mind, just like that a parade of hopes, dreams and happiness came towards me, I’m not really sure how it happened but I can tell you that I love you, so very much that I plan to cut the distance between us so much that our skins can touch and our lips can meet.

But suddenly this dark cloud has surrounded my dream of hope and the despair of not being close to you is consuming me, all I want to do is stay by your side and hold your hand through this rough moments, life may put a puzzle or two in our way but I want to have the chance to meet you and it seems raw and rough, yes, I must admit that it hurts, not the fact that you might be gone, no, it hurts the fact that you are all alone, that I can’t be with you, that right now you have to fight back to stay here and I am so far away, I want to be with you, holding your arm and walking along, giving you my strength and courage to face things up, because a brighter future awaits us that I’m sure of.

With this threat of ending all the dreams and hopes I just don’t think I want to keep going, not through the same path, my heart seemed to start beating when we met and now you might be taken away from my arms without even been there, it hurts so badly, the distant future without you seems so gray, so cold and I just don’t want to be there if you are not with me in the picture, it might be just a silly dream some may say but I’m a dreamer, but, what would become of a dreamer if you take the only thing that moves him day  after day?

I refuse to let go of your hold, your firm squeeze, that dream we’ve planned together, I will pursue it, I’ve felt that I found where I belong and it’s by your side, with you, laughing with you, taking care of you, smiling with you and facing the rough times with you, all I can say is that I won’t give up, because I’m too stubborn to let go, some people advice is just to accept things, but no I won’t, you have my spirit by your side, don’t give up now, times are hard, but you have all my support I wish I could do something else, but other than giving you my entire heart and soul, I have no idea what I can do.

Please hold on, stay strong, we shall move on forward to a day after day smiles and to a close future where we shall be together and happy just don’t give up, our moment is coming closer, we will finally be  together and I want to spend those joyful moments by your side.

Oh! Please keep holding on! I know it may seem strange and it may even be selfish for me to ask this but I just don’t know what would become of me if I must face an entire life without you, just knowing that you were there, having your smile only on my imagination, no, I want to be with you because you make my life sparkle with hope and because I know that you smile when you think about me.

So for both of us please hold on, I’m doing my best to run by your side as soon as I can, so we can be together. God, I do love you, I pray the lord to give us a chance because this magic we’ve found it’s beautiful and I just want to hold your hand and look into your eyes and say that I’m thankful because you saved my soul and that I love you like I didn’t thought I could.

So hold on because I’m on my way, so that we can be on our way… to become us … Eternally yours …

Finally...

Finally it arrives a hard storm blew roughly on my shoulders, stones crushed my back, my hands are shaking from the effort of holding on when everything seemed slippery and un certain. I look up, feel the cold breeze on my face and I realize the worst has passed.

I press my hands against the rough floor and push to slowly get up, my moves are slow as I am tired after such an endurance test. I'm stronger that I know, my mind has been tested several times and I stood up growing up becoming wiser, smarter, better not perfect. However now I don't care about being perfect I want to be me and the best me I can be.

It's time to rise again and stand up strong and proud, yes I can still improve but this journey has given me a better self to work with, I got different abilities and I will use them, I went out to grow and I did.

My eyes look into the horizon and I see the sun rising before me. It's time for rewards, it's time to see a little of the world that waits for me.

Lying ahead my destiny shines bright, I take a good look at it while standing right and strong. I take a deep breath and feel the air inside me. Then proudly and confident I take a first step into the land ahead feeling the warmth of the sun above covering it all in glorious gold. I keep walking to my gold and bright future ...

The Time Has Come

The time has come to stop saying "I wish" and start saying "I will" because the trouble of wishful thinking lies in feeling good with the possibility and leaving the achievement of the dream for later. Ok, you know what you want so now start being instead of wishing, you may not look like that superstar you wish you were however you will never know how much closer you can get until you take a chance to be your dream.

The time of being has come, idols weren't made over night, it was a process they had to face, they are normal people with a huge passion that transformed them into people to look up to. Where they expecting that result? Most weren't they just focus on being something and worked non stopping into that direction.

It's not just those people but anyone can be that wonderful, even normal common folks, because everyone started like that, the first thing is the start and afterwards keep moving slowly but steady and your goal will come to your hands before you know it, and just keep hanging on to your dreams to see how marvelous results will become part of you, just remember that impossible things remain impossible if we leave them there.

The time is now, no need to wait, face your dreams, fight the road to get there and achieve them.

You got your dreams, its time to give the world another star to look up to.

The time has come.

The time is now. 

I dare you to live success.

A Little Light

Time has turned my shiny days into cloudy evenings, and there has been one test after another, now that my resources seem to be less and less as I keep trying to make things right, soon I open my eyes and realize I’m in the middle of a tornado and I stand there looking at my thoughts, dreams, goals and emotions circle around me looking them rise up and fall down with the speed of sound as they spin all over me, it’s a dance of life a dance that pushes me in and out of my mind, in and out of happiness, making me lean so close to despair just to throw the rope of hope so that I will hold on tight and stay there, all the obstacles, all the wrong turns, why is it so difficult to be happy?

Now I wonder, is the path I chose the right one? Will I make the world a better place? Will I find true love and happiness? The questions keep piling up in my mind and filling my heart with doubt and uncertainty letting the anxiety come and push it’s claws through my skin leaving me wounded as it laughs behind me, now I see the storm, yes I know in my mind that I can overcome this, that I can move on, it’s just that it’s my heart who has a rough time believing it, and it’s a voice deep in me that tells me that there’s nothing wrong with letting things happen, that I will never fail in life, because there’s a dream under my skin, a dream that carried me through the harder times, a dream that pushed me up into the higher mountains, that held me through the darkest valley and into the coldest forest, there’s a dream, a hope that I must achieve.

No, I will not fail, because it’s not everyone’s goals those that I must accomplish, it’s not everyone’s goals those that I must achieve and they won’t necessarily be the ones that bring happiness to me, there’s a dream inside of me, a dream that pushes me into moving on, a tiny shine that I can see when I’m down on my knees, now that life attacks without mercy, one blow after another, I’ve find my inner strength, my will to stand through this hard times, but it doesn’t seem enough because life should not be one proof after another, life is a journey to enjoy not a storm that we should hang on through looking at the sky far away wishing for a sign that it will end soon.

Life is about joy and love, there’s a dream in me, a dream that keeps pushing me on, a dream that makes me sure that no matter what, I will be ok, a light of hope through the dark storm, that showed me that my fear was to fail on achieving the goals of those I love, the sacrifice would be great, my life to see them happy as I got what they wanted me to, but is that really going to make them happy? Is that really going to make ME happy? No, there’s a dream I must fulfill there’s a life I want for me, not caring to be richer with my work, not caring about being the greatest, but just caring to do what I love, to be happy and to let my life take on its course, the course of dreams and happiness, the course I want to have.

There’s a dream inside of me, a dream that makes my heart glow and shows me a little light as I keep trying to stick through the cold storm and endure the unstoppable fall of the rain on my back, yes there’s a hope, because there’s a light in me, there’s a chance for me to become someone greater, a chance for me to be happy, a dream I should pursue and find myself happy with the life I want, because I will do anything to achieve it, and life might be hard on the road for me, but unlike the times that are before me, those  rough times I will overcome with strength and security instead of just holding on and wishing for life to end.

There’s a dream that pushes me on to live life, a dream that invites me to be happy, a dream that I want to get, a dream that I must achieve, for me, for my loved ones, because it’s not their goals that will bring happiness to me, yes it’s their care and love and support  which make my strength into holding my head high on the distant future, but it’s my dream the way I should be looking at, it’s my dream what I’ll fulfill it’s my goals that will set me free, and it’s my life the one I’ll be enjoying, because there’s a dream inside of me and that dream is a little light, that reminds me that even when the whole world seems cold and uncaring, there’s a place where I am loved, there’s a place where my dreams come true, that little light might not be strong enough to bring light to the whole scenario, but within it I can see my dream, I can see the reason why I keep holding on, that little light might be insignificant for someone if he compares it with the whole darkness that surrounds me, but that light will lead me to my brighter future.

It’s that light, my dreams, my hopes, my calling whose voice I now hear, who’s pointing the way I should follow, who’s giving me hope to keep on and endure the coldness of rain, because I have a dream to achieve, all my life it has been with me, and now the time has come for me to embrace it and accept that it is my own light, no matter the size of it, it might seem small but it will grow as I move closer to my own dreams and it will lead me into a shower of light and a place where I should be, a place where everything goes right, a place where fights are not for survival, where love is the first driver of the carriage and everything is better.

The storm will pass sooner or later, and I will still be there, with my head held high staring at my dream closer at me, the path I must follow has been showed, there’s a light inside of me, a little light that will shine with hope through the darkness of the storm and with the warmth that will surround me and protect me from the icy adversities, there’s a little light, in each of us, find yours and hold on to it, because life it’s just about the things we do and just about the dreams we want, happiness is a calling for all of us, walk out of the storm and follow that little light inside of you, be sure that it will turn into a flame that will show you the right way to go, because life is a journey that we should enjoy, and so now that is my personal advise, enjoy life, enjoy love, follow your dreams for only those will set the mark at the end of the rainbow, do not care about money or fame, if they shall come then they will come and they will not be a burden to carry but a prize for those moments.

Treasure love, follow your dream no matter what, find your better self and put that out to the people, life is good but we have the power to make it not great, but wonderful, life can be magical if we let it, yes pursuing your dreams might be a so-called waste of time, but it’s that waste of time that will be the first step for magic to start happening, let your dreams make your heart glow, let them give you a little spark in the dark of the storm and  you will find a moment to step out into the lands of happiness, it’s not just a silly dream, it’s in your hands to make it the wonderful truth in which you can live, so do it, enjoy life and go after your dreams, don’t worry how crazy they are, the paths will always open up for them to happen and for you to be happy. That’s the real purpose of our existence, and the real secret of life.

Close Your Eyes

When life seems just not right, when it seems you took all the wrong turns, when suddenly you begin to question yourself and the choices you’ve made, when it all seems a choice gone wrong and you start wondering if you are doing the right thing and the fog of doubt and fear surrounds you it will seem hard to believe that you can rise, but this was just a stumble, the road of life is long and there is plenty to walk through, and while it seems to be a sudden blur and an uncertain future awaits trust yourself, close your eyes and keep walking forward.

When the boundaries seem eternal, when everyplace seems the wrong place and your dreams point to another direction, a brighter direction, life can turn up better and you keep wishing it will, but somehow when the day starts shinning a cloud comes on and starts raining over you, while your dreams are pointing up into the sky but your feet are deeply buried into the ground, look up at the sky, stare at your dreams, take a deep breath, spread your wings and look at the uncertain path to cross, feel your dreams close, close your eyes and fly up to catch them.

Because sometimes the situations just seem to slap you once and again and again, one blow after another, hitting your soul deeply and making your confidence shake feeling how the floor under your feet becomes liquid and you are swallowed by the sea of confusion and fear, surrounding you, moving around your body, questioning every decision you’ve made to be where you are standing now and asking if they were the right ones. When that moment comes, when doubt releases the first strikes and you are down on your knees then hold on to your heart, hold on to the truth, grab the strength that lies deep within yourself, close your eyes and walk up to a brighter day. 

It’s just a matter of time, keep walking up, keep your eyes shut against all the harsh circus happening out there and hold on the move, keep on walking and before you know it, yours dreams will began to come true, just close your eyes and keep walking.

Let The Thunder (Rip The Skies Appart)

And then suddenly the skies break into thunders and the whole world seems to tell you that this was going to happen sooner or later, you just kept dreaming and now, like an ice-cold shower hitting your mind and you realize all that fantasy, all those dreams, they are all gone now, because nothing will be the same, there was a something that that other someone else had and you didn’t and all that got that one a higher place than yours, a privilege that you would never have, and even if you did now, someone was there before you, even when you got there first.

So he picked a someone else, so he turned and had a different choice, there’s a difference between you and his choice, yeah, you were there, you tried your best, everyone just seemed to be on your side, everyone just seem to support you and tell you how good you were, how much you could give and how lucky someone would be when they settle down with you what a great couple you could be, what a great happiness you both could achieve.

But instead of you he picked someone else, and you with all that support and those dreams are now crashed, before the thunder can rip the skies your dreams were ripped from top to bottom, being alone and those sweet dreams apart. Let the thunder crash the silence, let the thunder scream your hurt and disappoint, let the thunder shout out this wrath, let the thunder rip the skies apart.

And yeah she choose someone else, you were always there for her, every sad moment, every lonely spot, every sensitive situation, and it was you who were there for her, to cup her face when was crushed, to help her up on her feet when life hit her hard, it was you the one who remained by her side, treasuring every tear, enjoying every laugh every moment spent together was worth more than a million dollars and now she turned her back.

Seems you weren’t that amazing, seems you weren’t as a great support as you think you were, seems all your efforts were just not that great, and seems you were just not enough. So now she picked someone else someone that apparently fills the space, someone that apparently will fill the shoes, someone who will be enough, unlike you, when you gave everything, and everything wasn’t enough. So let the thunder crash the silence, let the thunder scream your hurt and disappoint, let the thunder shout out this wrath, let the thunder rip the skies apart.
