Fire

Red so hot burns around you as you become so angry

Fire so blue around me as I keep my cool and your words don’t affect me.

So much red around you and sometimes it’s not even worth it for you to be that mad or for you to raise your voice.

I will be the cool and relaxed and understanding fire any day as long as it means I see the light in a different way and my light shines for good.

I don’t want to burn down the things around me I want to help them grow and change the way things are.

I want to guide people around and to not feel like I am making things worst but know I am making things better and brighter.

For my fire burns inside and I keep it in check for being angry never got me anywhere that was good.

I knew

this day was coming and I don’t feel sad about it but, it’s making me ready to leave and not look back

It’s the feeling of finally knowing there is nothing holding me back.

what am I waiting for when all I want to do is walk right out that door and not worry about karma?

For I did nothing wrong and the things that are about to fall apart had nothing to do with me.

I do what I can and everything else is the doing of others who never truly cared.

This place of fun is now full of resentment and laziness and the answers will not come, for no one wants to ask questions anymore.

Or acknowledge that they have done wrong or willing to fix the problems.

the end to this chapter is coming soon but how soon is really up to you.

Week 183 of Three Line Tales

together has come to an end and we much travel back home and go out separate ways.

These last couple of days together has felt like old times when we were so young and free.

Now there is so much going on in our lives that it’s hard to get away and take the time to see one another and for the moment to last longer than an thirty minute call or a quick text to check up on each other.

Week 182 of Three Line Tales

of the seasons are coming as the hot days of summer keep going and we all become impatience for it to become fall.

Where people start putting on more layers and enjoy the little cold that come and soon they will be planning out what to wear for halloween. 

And in a blink of an eye you will see that the year has come to an end and things will begin to truly change and you will have to accept it, I know it will be hard but I know that some change is good and worth dealing with I hope.
