Painting My Feels

Ship for Fools

What’s it all about

Knowing, yet not knowing

Day by day

Living as a Fool

Hope is the risk I take

Faith is a ship for Fools

And sailing onward

I go

Daring to dream

Roulette with my heart

My very life

Torn by the struggle

Raging deep within

Truth versus doubt

Who holds the upper hand?

The stakes are high

Or are they?

For what is lost

Other than pride

To surrender pride

Is no loss

At all

And there remains

the reward

Spoil to the victor

If a victor there be

If I win

I win all

If I lose

It is but pride

And pride is for fools

Cruel Hands

(Quintessentially pathetic and hilarious)

Cruel hands hewed an axe through my sternum

Cruel hands clutched either side and wrenched it apart

Cruel hands wrapped icy fingers about my heart

Cruel hands squeezed until my soul oozed out

Cruel hands dashed the tattered remains to the ground

And as the shattered pieces of my being lay scattered

He with the cruel hands laughed

Are all hands as cruel as his?

Written by S. C. Kim, 1989

Great Expectations

Living in a shadow

Waiting for a sign

Dreams are not reality

But dreams I hope to find

Cast away from time

Adrift upon the sea

A restless cloud of turmoil

Writhes inside of me

Lonely in the dark

Seeking for the Light

Great Expectations lost

Captured by the night

Tears like morning dew

Trickle from my eyes

It’s time to face the morning

And kiss the dreams goodbye

Written by S. C. Kim, 1980s

Beauty

To feel Love is to know Beauty

To feel Joy is to know Love

To feel Happiness is to know Joy

To see Light is to feel Happiness

To know Beauty is to see Light

Life

Life

In solitude you ponder
The history of the ages
As it happened then
As it happens now
This living experience
We all share

Intersections
And parallels
A journey commenced
Upon your first breath
Although the choice
Was not yours

What then
Is it all about
A riddle to be solved
Life is a gift
Not a burden
Therein lies the clue

Live Joyfully
And whatsoever you do
Do Mightily
Seek Wisdom
Find Truth
LOVE

tears

Each drop is a reflection of my soul
In one light there is joy
In another, fear
Anguish, bitterness, deep despair
Sorrow, compassion, and surprise
It’s a wonder to comprehend
How just one little tear
Can represent so much
So much of me
