I’m in my

 Zone and as the weather gets colder

The positivity goes stronger inside of me as I grow warmer and brighter than before.

For this battle is almost over and I am fighting so strong with my lord right beside me.

I know the journey doesn’t always start out so strong but I am ready for it to continue to be good and great.

I quite

 don’t know what to do as everything just keep changing for me.

I want to be happy but I know things will get better if I just take this leap.

I know I will have so much more to learn and I’m looking forward to that day.

But, for now, I just have to wait until it is my time to move forward into my new change.

For my cloudy days seem to be behind me as I move forward with my life as 2019 comes to an end.

I remember

When things were simpler.

Now everything is out of wack and even when we figure things out it is still not enough.

It’s a win-loss situation and when we try to fight back it is still not worth it. 

So instead I just want to throw in my towel and move on with my life.

I know I deserve better and good times will come for me but right now I have to be patient and wait my turn.

The day was long and even when I solved the problem the person didn’t want to listen and in the end, all my work felt not appreciated.

Even though I know they don’t and won’t care either way for complaining is the thing they love the most.

Oh how

 you’ve given me the strength to carry on lately.

Especially with everything going on all I can think of is how you gave me a second chance at life.

At opportunities, I didn’t think we’re going to happen to me this year.

But there you were knocking down those doors I thought we’re not gonna open and here I was gonna be left alone here to truly break down.

And lose who I was and to not believe I was good enough to leave and better myself from this place.

Oh God how much I love and appreciate all that you do for me now and later on in my life.

The hat

completes the outfit as I go out in the cold

trying to keep all of me warm as the temperatures start to drop.

I know that I won’t have long to be out but it’s better too not have to deal with feeling the bitter and sharp wind outside.

Oh, hat how you keep my head warm and how you come in handy when I don’t feel like doing my hair.

You give me just the right amount of warmth and just for the amount of time I need it for.

I know you only come out in the winter but I enjoy wearing you during these seasons.
