Poetry On Odyssey: The Perfect Night

"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud" - 1 Corinthians 13

There are always ups and downs with love but in the end of it all, nothing is greater than the bond between two lovers

The Perfect night is with You.

It is with blankets and roses of white

A candlelit dinner under the moonlight

Our favorite song on the radio

Driving around with everywhere to go

Romance in the air is all we breathe

Almost like we're Adam and Eve

We fell once but never again

The perfect night is upon us

Between you, me and the God above

I don't have much to give other than my heart

It skips a beat when I see your walk

Your dress, your eyes, your voice when you talk

You shine brighter than the brightest star

Even when you're near you seem far

Ever so close in the blink of an eye

Your eyes open up like a clear sky

Staring in awe of what I see

You shine so brightly such as a sunrise on the sea

The Perfect night is without a trace

You standing there in that lace

Knowing the world is ours

Today and tomorrow and from dusk till dawn

Our lights will shine even when we're gone

You and I have lived so long it's about time I tell

Back when we first met my heart nearly fell

Back to the parts, we do not tell

Back when smiling covered my face

It would soon leave without a trace

Goodbyes and hellos are temporary

Yet apologies are necessary

Love lasts long while under the stars

No fancy clothes or fancy cars

Like that song on the radio was meant to be

Back when we used to be Adam and Eve

Gone but never forgotten is how love tends to be

Here one day and gone the next

Our love will never leave our nest

I would say more but history knows the rest

For you and I were meant to be

From today and tomorrow

Through all eternity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
