On this

Day I should feel so alone as I walk down this somewhat dark path.

The leafs blowing all around and yet I feel at home as the fall weather feels right to me.

Like this is my season for great things to happen as long as I believe and take the chance that needs to be taken.

For I know the next season is not granted and this may be my only chance to get things right.

Me as I let go of these things that are holding me back.

It’s time to have fun to walk into the unknown with a smile on my face.

For I know it is a safer place for me then the ones I know of.

Today will be great for I’m ready for the joy that is waiting for me on the other side of this fountain.

Cold all

 Around as fall finally pulls into town

The feeling of needing to layer up is here and as it feels good.

To feel the warmth and not the cold around you as the leafs start to fall and you are surrounded with color and hope.

You realize there is so much to look forward too at this time.

So many things screaming for your attention and you want to focus on them all.

However, you know you have to play it smart and focus on one at a time or you will still be in a mess when fall turns into winter.

She is

 So full of life and the energy she has never seems to dim down.

She knows the cold is coming and she refuses to let that damper her day or night.

She will keep going forward no matter how much someone tries to come for her.

Her smile along can weaken any evil thing around her, for her light outshines them all .

There is not one dark moment that ever truly brought her down for long.

She is the happiness and good energy I want to see in myself when the days become too dark and cold.

away my troubles

I wish it was that easy.

My frustration is growing

so much that its beginning to be out of my control.

I just want to feel at ease and not overloaded at

every corner with no luck of surviving this mess.

Am at my end rope and I’m not worrying about the outcome anymore for if I can just get through one more day that would be just great.

Week 192 of Three Line Tales

 came but it didn’t destroy anything but it did take away all the doubt I felt that day.

And in its place, it gave me the courage to take a step towards my dreams and to not fall back when I became a little afraid that I would fail.

For the rainbow shining in the sky is a reminder that even though the toughest storms of my life I will come out on the other side better than before.

I so

need to get away and relax by the pool again before the weather really starts to get cold again.

I don’t want to face the mess that has been placed in front of me right now but what am I to do when all I want to do is get out of this place.

With no detection that I am about to go and not come back again, I want to be relaxed all the time and not stressing out to the maximum level anymore for there is so much more for me to live for now in the year 2019.

 to wait for you

To figure it out on your own.

And I wonder how long that will take for I don’t plan on sticking around this place for much longer.

I don’t want to say anything for I so want this time to stick and for me to finally breath again.

For the first time, I feel like I’m truly tasting things again as if my taste buds were there but I was not in tune with my body anymore.

But here I am feeling alive and not lonely and truly feeling like I know what I’m supposed to do.

I know this frustration isn’t worth it anymore and I just hope that I can stay feeling good.
