Mother Tongue.


Mother tongue, our default lingua franca,

Straight for birth, it accompanied us her,

Untethered, and unstained, it flows through our veins,

It wired in our brains, it's difficult to forget,

Mother tongue ; a gift from above, an identity we carry about, everywhere we go.

Still Stuck With You.

I Threw out old boxes, Regrets and photographs, Empty pockets and lockets, That reminds me of you. I deleted folders and archives. I destroyed albums and souvenirs. I burnt bridges and built walls. All these and more I did. To erase your memories. To wipe out our history. Yet, you're still stuck in my mind. © Toobrightanthony

Life Happens To Us All.

Image
Life happens to us all, no one is left out, To the worst, and the very best of us, We all experience life events and issues, Even those that seems to have it all figured out, Life do take them unawares several times, It's not a bad omen or ill luck, It's part of the essence of our existence, Life happens to us all, no one is left out, We can only hope and pray to be dealt a fair hand. © Toobrightanthony  📸@pexels.com

Lost in thought. Shut out from the world. Wandering through your mind. Ruminating the past. anxious of the future. Lost in thought. Numb to reality. Stuck in regret. Held by shame. You can't move forward. Lost in thought. Not in touch with the present. Bewailing failures. Mourning the wrong decisions. Limiting yourself.  Lost in thought.  Not in the present. Forgive yourself  The past is passed. The future is yours.
