many letters will it take for me to get out of this mess I’m in?

Will the clever ways I use to spell and design something for you be good enough or will I stay on your bad side and what is happening right now just something of the past. 

I see so many and so much can be done and I just don’t care if I get to use it everyday or e every week I just know that I need to use them and do something different for once this time once and for all.

I

Can’t say what is going on with me.

For I don’t even truly know but, I can’t just sit still because the world won’t wait for me.

To get it together and so I push on and use the pain and unknown feelings to push past it all to get by.

But, sooner or later it will all catch up to me and I really don’t know how to handle the strong winds that will blow through my life.

Turning up everything that I thought was leading to the right path.

What

do I say to you as time goes by and I feel  nothing but resentment towards you.

Is it best for me to just stay away and hope these feelings will go a way over time or is it something that will only get worst if I try to handle it on my own.

I know that I have to make a decision soon because I can’t keep living like this when I know that even if I didn’t come back you wouldn’t have noticed anyway.

So length of time won’t matter if you hear from me or not because you won’t check.

So maybe one day I will reach back out again but for now I just don’t want to resent you and so we have to talk now and be done with the deal.

Oh

how we appreciate the little things in life

from little pieces of pine on a tree.

To the sand on the beach

To the water in the Ocean.

To our time here today that we spent together

even the weather was nice out.

We stand here just enjoying the simple things and

moments that shape us for who we want to be.

The path that finally leads us out of the dark tunnel

but into the light where everything has been set for us.

Finally

just being  able to do the simple things in my life on a weekend when the weather is good.

To be happy to just shop for good things to put into my body and to find new things to try with no worry about the time.

To lose myself in the store just  for a little while then to the checkout line I go and when done off home I go.

To plan out my week worth of meal plans and to relax before my Sunday becomes a Monday and the craziness all starts over again.

The unwanted drama that will come our way unknowingly when we are already  buried in work with no help or escape insight.

We will smile and get through it by thinking about the relax and happy moments we experienced over the weekend when there was no one to bother us.
