Quote of the day



I want to hideout with you even if it’s just for a day
to just escape from the craziness of this world.
We could bring all the things we would need like food,
drinks, movies and music.
We would watch and eat as much junk food as possible and laugh until the day ends with joy.
Our hideout days will be memories that I will treasure for a lifetime for I know there will be times when we can’t spend as much time together.
As we did that day, with being at work takes up more of our time than being off does.

Glitter you bring a smile to little kids faces
you just seem to make things so much brighter.
But, you really messy and when it’s not arts and craft time you can be quite annoying.
It’s cute to see you on little kids artwork but yet we don’t want to touch you because You just won’t get off.
You stick around like a true friend even when we think you are gone, we find another piece of you sticking around.

many words  I could say right now but, nothing seems to come out.
The storm of my life is coming in strong and I have nowhere to hide.
It’s going to tear me apart and  maybe no one will notice until I’ve been gone for a while.
How many words will it take to get me back to myself.
Or will I forever be broken like  Humpty Dumpty and no matter how people try to put me back together.
I’ll never be the same person again.

The words poured out your mouth that day
and my tears that flowed down my face.
Made everything a blur as you stood there and told
me the truth.
You didn’t see why I was in so much pain when you told me
all I needed to know.
I should just forgive you and move on for the mistake was not that big
and, we are bigger than it you said.
I didn’t know the words to say to you that day but as I walked away from you that day everything after that was all a blur.

Didn’t think I would get this second chance to live again.
To breathe fresh air and feel so alive again like I’ve finally broken free from the chains so many have put on me.
No one is holding me back anymore, no one is noticing me anymore.
But I am a ghost who is at peace with the life I live.
Being invisible isn’t as bad as I thought it would be.
I found myself through all the ugliness and now I’m stronger, wiser and looking forward to what life has to throw at me next.
I’ll never step back down to the old me for there is no going back for me.

Three Line Tales, Week 55

Write three lines inspired by the photo prompt (& give them a title if possible).
I Lift my hands up to you my lord as I praise you for all you have done for me, I want to thank you for the voice I found in me after all these years.
I want to reach out and know that one day I will get to hand your hand more than just a second but a life time.
I am here and so are you, you’re always with me through the thick and thin and I know that this year will be my year because of you and you alone.

I wish you could translate the words that are between the lines of the things I’ve said you that day.
Maybe than things wouldn’t have ended this way.
So many things I just couldn’t bring myself to say and in the end
It didn’t matter for you would never know as you drove off and I never saw or heard from you again.
If only the things I truly need could be translated to the world and my results would be
clear and I would end up with the things I needed the most.
Maybe one day the words unsaid will get back to you and you will forgive and be apart of my life again.
For I know the translate of the simply words I miss you, means so much more to me than to you but maybe after so much time away.
Just maybe they will mean as much to you as they always meant to me.

So many juicy things in the world like
Strawberries
oranges
apples
plums, peaches.
Man I’m getting hungry but it’s not those juicy things people crave in the world
but the juicy gossip that surrounds us all.
We want to know all the details of what has happened and what is to come.
