Month: March 2018
Daily Prompt: Blush
Advertisements
My favorite thing to do was make her smile and blush at my sometimes not appropriate jokes.
She always said I said the more sexual things in public and I should be ashamed of myself but, I just can’t help myself because it’s just too easy to get her to blush and slap my arm for embarrassing her.
These moments were always my favorite, that’s why I never did them when I knew she was in a really bad mood.
For that would only turn her against me in those moments and seeing her sad or really pissed off because of what I did was never fun.
She always came around when I apologies and told her I would do better and well I have improved and I know tomorrow.
She will blush and she will cry and in a happy way and that is the only way I want it to be when it comes to her.

Daily Prompt: Patience
Advertisements
Everyday my patience is tested and right now I can honesty say someone days I know that I lose and they win.
But, more than likely they lose and the temper comes out and the nasty words come flying out their mouth.
And they try to hit you well you’re not looking for they want to break you and they want you to give them what they want.
But, the truth is you have had a enough and now as the words come pouring out of their mouth you just ignore it until it goes away.
And as their empty threats are thrown at you, you just want to tell them you just don’t care and they can go stuff all their negative shit where the sun don’t shine.
But, in the end you just stay quiet and you let them walk away and you just move on to the next person who is just waiting to get what they need next.
The cycle repeats its self almost daily and you just have to have patience during the long period of times when you feel like you are being hit from all sides with no end.
You want to crumble and let it just smash you into non-existent but, you realize that you too deserve better and you too are human and just work for the man.
The frustration shouldn’t be pointed at you but, you are present and so you become the victim and the target for whoever wants you to be right now.
So patience is all you can have because in the end, it doesn’t matter how many ways you explain something someone who wants to be right all the time is not going to hear you.
So be the bigger person and act quick because if you don’t end it now it will go on and on until you get sucked up in the mix of crazy.
And trust me this crazy is not the crazy you want a point of now or ever.

I didn’t

even know what I was looking for when I stumbled into you that day.
I wasn’t looking and I wasn’t trying to fall for someone, in fact I wasn’t really interested in adding anyone new to my life.
I was happy with the people I had in my life and I just barely had time for them and now you walked in and pushed more space into my life because you wanted to be around.
You demanded my time and well I gave it to you and the little bits of time to myself became few.
And in that moment when I just felt overwhelmed because, I had so much coming my way that I just didn’t want to accept that this was the way my life was now and for good.
I couldn’t breath anymore because there was no moment where I just was with myself and could just relax and stop moving.
Time was moving by so fast that I realized I had wasted so much time but, not when it came to you.
But, the situation to fix my life had to start with me and well I have no clue how to save myself.
I didn’t stop to think that maybe you were the answers to all my questions and solutions if only I had asked you sooner.
Things would have been so much more different because, I wasted so much time not seeking your help where it counts in the end.
Maybe my story does end with a happy ending as long as I open up to you everything that seemed impossible will be possible for me from now on.

Hey my friend it’s been a long time since we talked and I just have so much to tell you.
I felt like if I don’t tell you now I won’t be able too because my time is very limited right now and I know that you always give me positive vibes.
You lift me up with the joy of your light that shines out of you, these moment are so few now but I know that when we talk it will be good.

Daily Prompt: Incubate

Am I waiting and thinking things through or am I just acting on things so quickly that the idea of what I want is half-baked.
I don’t want to always end up with half-baked stories and poems because I didn’t think it through because I was in a rush to get it done and move on.
I really want to sit on these idea and make them right because at the end I want it be successful and walk out of this mess.

Pie

100 week Wednesday: week 62
Photo by Annie Spratt
Apple pie reminds me of those good old days when I would be in the kitchen with my mother making pie from scratch.
Those memories are so dear to me as I wish I could go back to those days when I had more time on my hand and life seemed so much more calmer.
No stress or worries insight as we would stand together in the kitchen and make pies to enjoy together later on as dessert.

Daily Prompt: Wrinkle
Advertisements
Sometimes the wrinkles in life just have to be accepted.
And not immediately ironed out to keep everything nice and neat.
Sometimes you’re in a hurry already and so you don’t want to bother ironing.
Or you’re getting older and you want to not have so many wrinkles or none at all.
To age gracefully and use products that do no harm to you is fine.
But, let’s not let wrinkles ruin the face God gave to you just for a little more lime light.
You are beautiful with all your wrinkles whether you wear them on your face or here or there on your clothes.
For we were not made perfect but imperfect so that we can grow from our flaws and mistakes.
Or accept those flaws and use them to do better.

Daily Prompt: Provoke
Advertisements
He tried to provoke the storm of anger brewing inside of me.
And I so wanted to just let it out for I was tired and just not in the mood to deal with all these people.
But, I stood my ground and let you go on your way without letting my storm not just destroy any mean bone you had in your body but I mine as well.
I don’t want to regret snapping at you but, I know I can’t let you get to me.
Like you get to everyone else in your life, I won’t be your victim.
You provoke me to do better and put up a better shield that doesn’t let the things from simple-minded people get to me.
You can’t touch me with your sad words for I know and see you for who you are.

Daily Prompt: Noise

All around me I hear noises and all I want is for the noise to stop.
Just one moment of silence is all I’m begging for.
Even when the moment comes the phone rings or someone is in my face asking so many questions.
I feel like I will break before I get a break from it all.
I try my best to do and be my best but, my mind and body are somewhere else.
I know I will crash soon but right now I just got to keep going.
My time to rest is only a day away and yet it seems like a week away.
