Present Tense
Live for what today
Has to offer,
Not what yesterday
Has taken away.
Just live
And do not complain.
Everybody has some pain.
Life cannot be plain.
Who is here to blame?
I leave the past
Behind, in the past,
Where does it belongs.
Only it is not possible. –
Past and present connectible.
My past will present in my future
As the life of memory in picture,
In the black frame
That always has a flame.
I do not complain.
Everyone has some pain.

I Miss You
When you slipped in history,
I strand at the present story.
I think I hear
What you whispered in my ear,
We are only guests here
Where we are apart. –
My answer confirmed,
You are always right.
I try to be smart,
I’ll try my best from the start.
You are not afraid of anything,
But I do; I scare of everything –
Every sound, noise, and move
At the dark night’s groove.
Every day reminds me of you.
I must live for two.

Quantum Physics
She is simple
Like the microscopic systems
In quantum physics.
The best description
Matters, and it is not offended,
Moreover, respected,
In daily reality,
It is simple
Like tiny molecules and atoms.
She is a part of nature,
Representing the human creature,
With a little bit of charm and fashion:
Proud, confident
And in weird position.
Is she affected by stars?
Is she influenced by the state of arts?
She is a mystery all the way –
Perhaps from the Milky Way
And the quantum entanglement,
With enough energy for management.
She is simple like a feminine symbol.

Winter Waltz: Poem
Real
Woman
How many ladies
Can honestly say,
I still have my real nails,
And real hair lay trails;
Real eyelashes from tales
Without any flashes
And only natural splashes
Just as bright and shiny
As a real Christmas tree.
Real woman has authenticity,
Strength, and individuality.
The society social standards
Are more than physical attributes.
Real women will empower and embrace
Womanhood beyond stereotypes.
Real woman smiles and rejects
Societal pressures
To control the traditional gender.
Let’s celebrate unique experiences of norm
Like we seen on the screen.
Real woman is a Queen.
Real woman is a human being,
Very keen and always winning.

Solution to My Equation: Poem
In Biology class I learned about the heart,
In Chemistry, I learned about oxygen.
In Physics, I learned about strength.
What about the Math class?
Math taught me numbers and facts
That lasts to react.
One heart is not enough
When you are in love.
To be complete,
You must breathe and live.
On the day when it’s rain
I use my brain –
U are Y I live.
I do not need a calculator.
I am a brainer and a creator.
In Math, you are the solution
To my equation.

You Are Not Insane: Poem
You are not insane.
You are not illusionary.
You are being honest and airy
How the digital world
Pulls us into connections.
We never planned
Our digital communications –
Isolated and achieving
Out for someone teaching
Who feels like home
That forms the poem.
When we are writing,
It is deeper than speaking.
We read; we listen and ask.
We feel and hear the mind
And know what is right.
It makes sense –
You are not insane.
