I Get To Live

This poem is a powerful affirmation of the simple yet profound joys of existence. It celebrates the freedom to experience life in all its facets, from the smallest moments to the grandest dreams.



I get to live, I get to breathe,
I get to love and chase my dreams.
I get to laugh, I get to cry,
I get to watch the stars up high.

I get to start fresh, a brand-new day,
I get to find my own unique way.
I get to sleep, I get to wake,
I get to learn from each mistake.

I get to dance to my heart's own beat,
I get to share smiles with those I meet.
I get to taste, to share a tart,
I get to cherish this beating heart.

Oh yes, I get to live, to thrive,
To feel the magic of being alive.
I get to dream, I get to give,
And oh, how sweet—I get to live.

I get to live.
I get to live.


In these verses, life is embraced fully—both its light and its challenges. The repetition of "I get to live" is a reminder to cherish every moment, to find joy in every breath, and to be grateful for the opportunity to simply be alive.

The Spotted Cucumber

  One fine day, tired of "always my way," I reached for comfort, or maybe just a craving. Picked up a spotted cucumber— Seemed harmless enough, so why not? But the moment I touched it, it pricked. Unwanted timber in my hands, Yet I let it be—what else could I do? Hunger led me to peel its layers, Only to find the filth it hid underneath. Worms writhing where freshness should be, Rot, disguised as something nourishing. I thought it was doing me a favor, But all it did was make me sick. Never knew comfort could leave such a taste— Bitter enough to spill my guts out. Next time, I’d rather reach for something rich, Something warm, indulgent, and worth my time. A smooth, chocolaty éclair— Rather than ever go for such a comfortable, unhealthy affair.

Us Two

  As the hands struck two… Can you feel my hands on you? The power of the universe with just us two I am so into you. Who’s counting the minutes? Only we know what we brew. Even if the world fades to dark, We shine brighter in our spark. Your lips brush my nape, Undoing the shyness of my drapes. As your fingertips trace me, I melt like that slice of brie.

Temptress

  I wanna be your temptress, Get you down on my mattress. You be the king, I'll be your empress. I already have a clear purpose, You can trace every curve and surface. I've got one mission for you— Are you built for the secret service? Let me take a bite of that apple, Can you make me pray without taking me to the chapel? They call me a wolf, but I will bear your saddle, Make me howl like the moon's lone disciple. Either play this like a boring game of Scrabble, Or get your armor on and be ready for a passionate battle.
