“The Heartless One”?

“Heartfelt from you? Mixaku, you don’t have a heart. That’s what I like about you”

Heartfelt from you?
Mixaku, you don’t have a heart.
That’s what I like about you.

Words like knives, cutting through the air,
Slashing at Mixaku with their cruel flare.
“You don’t have a heart,” they say with disdain,
As if his very being is something to blame.

But Mixaku knows the truth, deep down inside,
His heart beats strong, even if it’s denied.
He feels deeply, loves fiercely, and cares with all his might,
But the world can’t see that, blinded by their own sight.

So he stands tall, proud of who he is,
Embracing his differences with a heart full of bliss.
For he knows that in a world that judges and divides,
Being unique and true is what ultimately thrives.

Yes, heartfelt words may not come from them,
But Mixaku knows he doesn’t need them to condemn.
For his heart beats on, strong and true,
And that’s what he likes about himself, through and through.

The Halved Mind

Frustration is tossed emphatically at my bearing.
Accusations accumulate in huge amounts like a vermin 
invasion.
"It's your deficiency" and words like "you generally
commit errors" bring outrage.
Outrage which I need to take out on myself and take out
on others. 
I can exceed expectations in my work of decision, I
know I'm more than normal.
The awful gets brought up more and little acclaim is
given to the great. 
Dazed by unmoving words. I'm similar to a detainee
condemned to prison, discharged, and expected to do 
more regrettably.

Decimation rises out of my maddened feelings, I wish
your words could offer an answer.
I need to be a chemist and transform things into gold.
It's amusing how I am a maker of words yet can make
better words in my faultfinders. 
Discussions lead to contentions since I need to be 
heard.

I'm tired of rotating entryways, tired of being pummeled 
by your abominable remarks.
"You have no sound judgment" you state to me, possibly 
I simply wanting to be in fantasy, my wind floating away 
because life is excessively dull. 
Understand that what you state has an impact and that 
Impact can drive someone or stop them from moving.

Fortitude and Perseverance

“The patience shown by the moon to the (dark) night keeps it illumined; the patience shown by the rose to the thorn keeps it fragrant.” The Mathnawi: 6/1408

 

The moon, serene and still,
Shines on the darkness of the night.
With patience that never will
Give up on bringing light.

The thorn, sharp and rough,
Is a challenge to the rose’s grace.
Yet it endures, patient enough
To maintain its sweet embrace.

Patience, the noble trait,
That keeps beauty alive and bright.
It helps us endure and wait,
Till darkness gives way to light.

May we learn from the moon and rose,
To face our trials with calm repose.
And let patience be our guide,
As we journey through life’s bumpy ride.
