It’s been a busy week
Monday comes again, in a blink of an eye
Once more, I give out a deep sigh
Some relaxation is what I seek
Been working hard all day, everyday
Weekends are for resting, that’s what I say
Next week will be taxing
But for now, I’ll be busy relaxing

For Sue and GC’s Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge BUSY
We worry too much of the things unseen
Afraid of what the dark may hold
But there truly is beauty in the dark too
The stars and the moon are brighter when bathed in darkness
Your mind becomes quiet when you are in the dark
It allows you to think or to be in tune with your surroundings
Darkness hides the pain too
It keeps our secrets
Comforts us in a way it only can
For in the the light, we often shy away from our pain
Pretend to be alright
Yet darkness sees our brokenness
And once poured out,
Often helps us heal
Sometimes, we just need a bit of darkness

Turn the volume up
Let me hear you sing
Enliven the spirit
Let the music carry you through it
Do you feel it?

This week, GC and Sue give us Enliven as our Weekend Challenge.
Poets dream
Sometimes of coloured dreams and sometimes of black and white
Sometimes of chaos and sometimes of peace
Poets dream of moonlit nights
and sky full of stars
But sometimes, starless skies are the muse
And grey clouds are inspiration
Poets dream be it night or day
Our head full of musings

You hold the stars within you
You shine
You sparkle
You glow
Magic it seems
Likened to fairies
You captivate us mortals
How wonderful it was to see you once more
To have been graced by your beauty
It has been many moons since I’ve seen fireflies
Blessed was I to have had the chance

When we went to Siquijor (read as See-Key-Hor), I was able to see fireflies. I’ve posted before that I have not seen fireflies in such a long time, so you can imagine my happiness. I don’t have any photo as it was a bit difficult since there were only a handful and didn’t keep their lights on for long.
I loved you
With all of my heart and all that I had
But only found broken pieces of my heart

The two of us, together in this
I know we can make it through
Hold my hand and I’ll hold yours
Together we are stronger

Have you seen the series The Last Of Us? It’s a great series. Even if you’re not into the zombie genre, I highly recommend it. This post was inspired by the main character duo of Joel (Pedro Pascal) and Ellie (Bella Ramsey).
It’s in the wind being blown throughout the world
It’s in the stars above
The sun gives it off freely too
All we have to do is receive it
Open your arms and feel it engulf you
It’s all around
It whispers at night
Spread by shooting stars
There is still so much
So much love

Let’s go for a walk
A nice slow one
Take in the scenery
Be in tune to the now
Remove distractions of mobile phones
No listening to music using earphones
Just, walk
Walking is good
It’s good for our health
Heals the heart and the soul
Take my hand
Let’s go for a walk

For GC and Susan’ Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge – Walking
PS: Susan’s not feeling so well. Hope she feels better soon.
The only thing that's constant is change, that's how the saying goes
Sometimes, too many changes in a short span of time can be overwhelming
Close your eyes and breathe slowly
Steady your heart and clear your mind
Change can be daunting
But can also be the breath of fresh air that you needed
