Happy Birthday Mom!!
You are more than just my mother. You're my friend.
You've always been there, even when I anger you to no end.
I've tested your patience and sometimes I'm not always the best son.
But your forgiveness is unlimited, you embrace me with a hug.
I admire your strength and all the things that you do.
You're so fair, honest and kind. I can count on you for some truth.
I realize all the things that you went through for me.
When I was kid, these were things that I couldn't see.
I have so much respect for you now that I understand.
The things that you went through to keep a roof over our head.
So Happy Birthday Mom, I honor you this day.
I love you and that's all I want to say.....

Christmas in the Bar
Have
you ever spent Christmas in a bar?
Having
drinks and listening to a guitar?
I went
through this one time before.
I
missed my flight and was stuck in Singapore.
There
was a bar in the airport hotel.
I
decided to spend part of my Christmas there.
Some
people were drinking.
Others
were doing karaoke singing.
It
actually turned out to be fun.
There
was gambling, someone yelled ‘’I won.’’
All of
a sudden some guys walked in.
They
had a look with a smirk and grin.
They
were up to something, it was easy to tell.
And at that moment, peace in the bar fell.
A fight
broke out, they struck with their hands.
Blood
was coming out and chaos set in.
The
police arrived and broke it all up.
As they
questioned everyone, we all were stuck.
After
that happened the bar went back to normal.
No one
was nervous, they acted so informal.
Was
this a regular scene in this particular bar?
This
Christmas Day stands out by far.

Take Your Power Back
Take your
power back
Don’t let
any human being make you think that you are worth any less
People will
always be people
Some are
nice and giving, others are takers and selfish
I have gone
through a period of recognizing who’s important
And the time
has come to realign who’s in my life
And if you
ever felt this way, don’t be afraid
To move on
with your life, even if that means shedding some people
Everyone’s
not meant to be in each other’s lives
Some people
are there for a reason and a season
And it’s
amazing how the true loyal friends stand out over time
I’ve learned
to be loyal to those who earn my trust and loyalty
Trust is a
privilege and should not be automatically given
So much
wisdom has hit my eyes about how to navigate through life
And I am
grateful to have this mindset that releases me from my self-inflicted suffering
And I have
taken my own advice
I have taken
back the power of my life and my mind

Make Each Day A Happy Day
I recently went through a traumatic experience, which I won't go into details on. But I wanted to share with you that what is on my mind right now is, to make each day a happy day. I decided that every day I wake up, I am going to have a goal to do things that day to be happy and to live life to the fullest. It can be something simple. A book, movies, hang with friends, family, anything. I want to share a poem that I literally just wrote with you.
Make Each Day A Happy Day
I recently been through an experience
That one could not imagine
It was very cold
And it was very traumatic
I felt real down, I felt locked in
It seemed as if my world would end
And then something came in my spirit
And said wake up, it’s time to start living
I learned a lesson from what I went through
And that is to make each moment count in all that you do
I learned to take a step, one day at a time
And to have faith that the sun of joy will shine
I will wake up each day with a goal to be happy
I will be active and work toward this satisfaction
I will focus on being the best that I can be
And then this goal will become reality

The Sweet Aroma
How sweet is that aroma
The
smell of roses, one of a kind
Never
leaving my mind
When
I think of you.
You
are so beautiful
Inside
and out
Your
eyes are so pure
Explaining
true love that’s within.
When
your presence meets mine
Paradise
begins
I
then begin to hope
That
paradise never ends.
Pondering
on the meaning
I
wonder what we will be
For
surely time holds the key
To
the future of destiny.
What
becomes of the future
Surely
means nothing to me
For
I will always feel complete
From
this heavenly memory
How
sweet is that aroma
The
feel of closeness so entwined
Forever
it will climb
Into
my senses and my view
We
are so suitable
There
is no doubt
You
are my soul mate
I
don’t want to live without
When
I see you
My
heart skips a beat
When
we hold each other
I
want time to freeze
No
other person in the world
Makes
me feel the way you do
I
only have three words
That
is, I love you.A Surreal Night
I just want to pour my heart out right now. Words can't describe how good it feels to have all of your support. I am so appreciative to all of my fans. You always give so much support. I had an amazing show last night and to see so many people being touched by my voice and my music was really surreal. You inspire me. You are like the blood in my veins that keeps me moving.
And to top it off, last night, when Mark Mendoza from Twisted Sister complimented me and said I had an amazing voice and really good music, that was just really motivating. This dude is from one of the greatest bands of all time and he was digging my songs ''Real Time'' and ''Easier Said Than Done.'' For a guy like that to be impressed by my music, that put me on cloud 9.
I never take any of you for granted. Steve Ryan is officially on the map. It's only up from here and you're coming with me!! I don't know if I'm going to accept this deal that's on the table from the major label yet or not, but either way, I am going to keep bringing you GREAT music and poetry.
