Come with me and let’s have some fun on rides that make you scream and forget about all your daily troubles.

Forget about the little things that have being making you feel down and just laugh with me until it’s dark outside and your too tired to stay awake.

Until your day and life are good again because you feel good again and the bad things in life won’t bring you down for a while.

Come have fun with me!

Poetry

Daily Prompt: Brave

I want to be brave like you and take on the world with so much courage

To smile at the people who try to bring me down.

I want to stand up for myself like you do

you don’t let anyone get in your way.

You didn’t become brave because someone told you too

You just did it because you wanted to be strong enough so that nothing could bring you down.

Your smile and strength is one of the things I love about you, but when you showed how it’s not so hard to be brave to that little boy it melted my heart.

And to see that little guy turn around and stand up for himself  it was a sweet moment.

Daily Prompt: Risky

I enjoy risk and what comes with them the feeling of your heart beating so fast

that you can hear it in your ears.

The adrenaline pumping through my body as the thrill of doing something that could be risky and end up bad.

Doesn’t stop me from jumping over that fence and running through that lawn.

Taking the picture of that statue even though the sign ahead clearly says not too.

Or having your flash on even though the sign clearly states no flash allowed.

Or sneaky in snacks and drinks into places that only want you to buy their stuff.

I’ll take the risk anytime and deal with the aftermath later on.

To be loyal to the people close to you

is something that is important to some.

Being loyal doesn’t just stop with humans

Your pet can be loyal to you as well and even when they like others

at the end of the day your their family and to them your home.

Being loyal to others is something you want to be because, you care for one another and in the end you just want the best for each other.

How many poems

do I need to write to get your attention

for I don’t know how much creativity is left in me right now.

I may have to take a break and come back to write something that will finally catch your eye.

I’m trying to be who you need me to be right now but, how can I be when the hope and magic that once put a fire under me that burned to strong.

Nothing could stop me from writing for my fingers just needed to type or write on a piece of paper.

And now the thoughts don’t come out or my fingers just don’t feel inspired anymore and even when I do write something good the flow just doesn’t continue on.

It ends with that piece and the next time I think of writing it just feels like I’m poking at a fire that has been gone out in the hopes that it will start-up again.

And the writing and the feeling inside of me will feel the same again and all my work and hopes won’t be so discouraged.

But, every time things slow do that feeling of dread comes over me and I just can’t seem to go on but yet I sit here knowing I’m beyond tired but yet my body and soul has yet to give up even when I know it’s time for me to move forward.

It’s time for me to finally rest my eyes and sleep a little longer for its time to stop fighting and just give up.

The tears will stop falling and I will slowly become strong and closed off again but, right the feeling of being alone doesn’t bother me as much as it used too.

Daily Prompt: Succumb

He was tempted by her smile and the small lick of her lips.

And he was a goner

he never had a chance to get away,

he was hers with just that one look.

She knew with one kiss he would be hers and he would regret it but,for now she was going to have some fun.

He felt fine at first until he was all alone and everyone was Turning their backs on him.

Warning him that she was bad news and needed to leave her for they know what’s best for him.

And at first he didn’t want to listen to them but, soon standing outside in the rain he saw what she could do to a guy.

And he ran so fast and so hard that he didn’t stop until he got home.

With one call he ended things and he knew if he was tempted again he wouldn’t say yes to a smile that looked to good to be true.

Daily Prompt: Cloaked

She wore a mask that cloaked all her insecurities from the world

she just needed to be hidden from all the eyes that watched her even if it was just for a little while.

She had so much going on she didn’t need to draw anymore attention to herself, so she did everything that was possible to hide in the shadows of her life just to get by.

She didn’t want many to get to close and find out her true deep and darkest secrets.

But, it was getting harder and harder to push people away when all she wanted was someone to hear her out and be there for her.

Daily Prompt: Fraud

Is happening all around

and yes we want to stop it.

Even if we do someone else will come along

and come up with a new scam.

That fools someone to believe they are helping out or making more money.

They never seem to think twice for they believe that what they are doing is true

and real and in the end they will save more than they ever could dream of.

Until one day that person disappears and all that money you had invested is gone and the dream is now pushed back until you can start building up what you loss that day.
