Pillars Of Quiet Strength

In a world often shaped by expectations and labels, it’s easy to overlook the men who have quietly shaped us with their kindness, strength, and wisdom. Have you ever considered how the positive men in your life have truly transformed you?

In the embrace of my father’s care,
I learned that strength comes with being fair.
He showed me how to face the world bold,
With a heart that’s warm, a spirit that’s gold.

My brothers, mischievous yet kind,
Taught me how to laugh, and unwind.
They showed me a love that doesn’t demand,
But always offers a helping hand.

From friends who never made me hide,
I learned the power of standing by one’s side.
Their words lifted me when I was down,
They saw the queen, even without a crown.

Teachers with wisdom, gentle and wise,
Opened my mind and cleared my eyes.
They nurtured the dreams I dared to chase,
With patience, guidance, and boundless grace.

Yes, I’ve met shadows, men who’ve been unkind,
But I refuse to let them define my mind.
For every wound, there’s been a healing touch,
From men whose presence meant so much.

These men, imperfect yet strong and true,
Have shaped me into someone new.
Through love, respect, and lessons shared,
They’ve made me more than I ever dared.

Though shadows may exist, I know the light of the good men who shaped me will always outshine them. What role have the positive men in your life played in your growth?

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.
