[Caffeinated Musings] Untitled Poem #002 & #003

In celebration for World Poetry Day, I am sharing two of my old untitled poems from previous years as the second post under my Caffeinated Musings blog series. This post may be a day late in my part of the world, but I hope the celebration is still on the other half. I don’t know if any of you will agree but personally, think that these 2 could be combined as one poem that is why I formatted it…

“The rest of us joined in even though we already knew it was useless, the sound of our voices lost in the roar of the rain hitting the concrete and the shriek of the whistle echoing over and over through the dark.”

—  Katie Cotugno, from “The Liberty Homes”

My grandmother said.

And when you leave, since we all leave one day,

you will also become dust...

And no one will remember how many bills you paid, not even your clean house, but they will remember your friendship, your fun and what you teached them.

“I came to a point where I needed solitude and just stop the machine of thinking and enjoying what they call living, I just wanted to lie in the grass and look at the clouds.”

Unsolicited "Late" Introductory Post

This blog introduction post was long time coming.

Hello, kindred soul! Are you wondering how you stumbled on this blog or why are you reading my post? I, too, would be wondering if I’m in your place. Well, I hope this will provide some light on that. Most blogs would already have made an introductory post right from the start, some even made it their first post—I didn’t. I just decided to publish a short new year post and jump right on with…
