Quote of the day

Poetry and short stories with a few daily quotes here and there!
Do I keep my frustration down as I feel like your picking and choosing to well respond.
And how do I not respond back with anger and inpatient.
I look back and I know that this isn’t worth fighting about and I won’t go out of my way to attack you.
But, do I settle on the matter just to keep the peace.
Or do I stand my ground and prove I’m worth more than what I seem.

Path called life and maybe this path has been walked on or drove on before.
And I’m not the first one to cross this path but I know this journey is just for me right now.
As I look down and around at the unfamiliar place I am in right now.
I know the situation isn’t the same as the person who walked before me but I’m ready to go to the impossible.
If it keeps me from breaking away and taking things too far then I’ll gladly welcome this change.

want this to be about you.
As a feeling of uncertainty falls over me today.
I want to reach out but I feel tired of this cat and mouse game.
For everything is draining me and I’m trying to hold on but exhaustion is coming in fast.
For how long will this journey continue as I grow tired too.

It all and now when I want to stay.
You push me away
And the urge to run away is so strong.
But somehow I am still here but the long days are taking a toll on me.
I don’t know if I can push through this, this time because it’s not as easy as it was before.
Maybe I’ve fought to hard last time that my body just doesn’t know how to regain the strength I need.
And so I sit here staring out this window and wondering what now.

Float through life lately I feel some pieces of me falling away
Like leaves from a tree when fall has finally arrived.
But that season has yet to come as spring slowly fades away and summer comes in.
From cold to warm to hot everything in my mind seems to go from thawed out to frozen to melting away.
Nothing seems as clear as before all of this and in a way I feel I found my voice again.
No longer sitting around waiting for inspiration but it showing up and taking control.
Maybe this change is what I’ve been waiting for and should embrace it and accept the pieces of me that have been left behind.
