Warm Bed
Subconsiously Longing to Feel Loved
I listen to your breathing
As your mind tip-toes into a slumber
Shallow enough for me to pull you out
Deep enough to slow each breath you reach for
I watch your eyes falling
As you cautiously step into a world of darkness
Convinced by your mind to stay
Until your flickering thoughts blow out
I feel your heart beating
As you lay in another world but right next to me
Synchronized rhythms tie us together
Forcing me to meet your quiet pace
Two different states of mind
Serenely drifting towards each other
Subconsciously longing to feel loved
Even while sleeping
Detached from their surroundings
Both sets of lungs now hold hands
Simultaneously singing the same chorus
With eyes and lips closed

The Gen Z Entrepreneurial Revolution
It is hardly debatable that the world has always been run by a bunch of aging dinosaurs, mostly male, who refuse to allow the younger generation to bring about changes. Politicians and leaders everywhere refuse to release the reigns of creativity and leadership until they are dead or dying. It is time to give the young a chance to revolutionize and change the entire landscape of their existence. Those of us with one foot in the grave, so to speak, should wake up and realize that we are not the ones who will be living in the world in the years to come.
