The Author's Unspoken Words (MGS Writings)

In the silence that follows, echoes of what could be, A heart divided, longing for a love that feels so free. Memories linger like shadows in the fading light, Each moment shared, a spark igniting the night. But fate has stitched paths apart, A bittersweet melody that plays on in my heart. I watch you both, a picture of joy and grace, While I stand on the sidelines, lost in this space. The laughter you share, the secrets you confide, A bond so deep, it feels like a rising tide. Yet here I am, caught in a web of despair, Wishing for a chance, a moment to declare. Why can't it be the two of us?  The question haunts my mind, A love unspoken, a connection hard to find. But in the depths of longing,  I find a flicker of light.  For love takes many forms, and not all are in sight. So, I'll cherish the warmth, the sweetness, the smile, Even if it’s from afar, I’ll hold on for a while. For in this tangled dance of fate and desire, I’ll find my own path and let my heart inspire.

Passion and heart, I get it,  But no one has to tolerate a loudmouth, A human being who doesn’t care to control, A volume and number of words they should say, Grow up and mature; you don’t have to scream to be heard. For silence is a great weapon, a great wisdom, Listening and understanding is a virtue, Keeping your “mouth shut” humbles you in ways, Self-control can also be a great tool, In case you are mindful.

A Boy  What would I do if a genie appeared? To make all my wishes come true, I’d ponder the treasures, the dreams I hold dear, Gold and diamonds, a shimmering view. Trips to the South Seas, where the sun kisses sand, But amidst all the riches, one truth shines through, All I want is a boy, And that boy is you. If I have two wishes to make, I wouldn’t ask for another one, For in my heart’s longing, there’s no need to fake, Just a date with a boy, And that boy is you. Who needs wishes to spare, When a day with you feels like bliss? In the magic of moments, I find my heart’s care, For all I desire is your sweet, gentle kiss. I am enchanted with you, In a world full of dreams, you’re my favorite view, So let the genie grant me this wish, pure and true, For all I want in this life, Is simply you.

  You are crying out in silence, But you do not walk alone. Through the shadows of the valley, Other weary hearts have known. Those who guide you through the darkness Carry heavy burdens too; They have worn the shoes of sorrow, And they bleed the same as you. For the heart is never broken, It is only broken wide, To reveal the hidden courage That was sleeping deep inside. Like the shifting of the weather, Every heavy cloud will pass; Storms will rage across the seasons, But the sun returns at last. Do not fight the passing shadows, Let the tears and feelings flow. Peace is found in quiet healing, Accepting where you have to go. For the world may shake around you, And your earthly friends may depart, But a promise stands unchanging To protect your fragile heart. Though the ancient mountains tremble, And the jagged hills remove, You are anchored in the shelter Of a fierce, unfailing love.  

Irritation that gets to the nerve!  Have you ever been irritated by some words you hear from other people?  Hearing an educator say, "I can’t stand an ungrateful child," makes my blood boil. What exactly does a "grateful child" mean to people like them? To these adults, a grateful child is a submissive robot. They expect children to offer effusive praise for the bare minimum and view total compliance as the only acceptable form of respect. In their eyes, a good child has no natural curiosity, never challenges authority, and never seeks autonomy. They demand that children suppress their own discomfort and remain perfectly content, even when their basic needs aren't being met. It is a completely transactional view of care, where children must constantly pay adults back with unprompted declarations of love and loyalty. Let's call it what it really is: a fragile ego. Adults who demand this level of submission are just looking for external validation to feel ...

You are the storm that commands the sea, The burning spark that demands to be free. No permission needed, no apology made, A beautiful balance of light and of shade. I see the wildness, the depth, and the grace, A presence that time can never erase. Unforgettable, fierce, and entirely whole, An untamed spirit, a matchless soul.

To a mind that is still, the entire universe awaits.  When you possess inner wisdom and insight, You use your soul and your eyes to touch the heart of things.  We are made of the same drops that we see in the ocean. We value what lies within the sphere of our understanding, And realize how dependent we are on what is far beyond it.  When the mind is tranquil, it becomes a mirror of the universe, Reflecting all things, in the midst of darkness,  We alone see the light of dawn; in the midst of silence,  We alone hear harmony echoing from within our own souls.  Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes,  Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way, They are meant to be; all things are one Let your mind and heart be free and at peace.
