Month: May 2021

that is well written and unfinished.

I have written not enough words as the days keep going by and nothing seems to happen.

Incomplete is this story with the words that go on for days but no ending insight.

Is there purpose and engagement in this story will it entertain someone one day or will it continue to gather dust in a corner?

To be discovered one day soon or will the light get to shine down on it and things will look and be brighter and real for this story that has yet to be told.

moment is about me or you

but when you take one day to appreciate someone else, it makes you feel good.

For you made someone else smile, cry happy tears, and hug you like there is no tomorrow.

For there may not be and in the end do you want to be the person who is selfish and missed out on so much or the person who was selfless and gave what they could.

But still made time for themselves when it all came down to this world.

I guess we will have to see as today is mother’s day and today is not just the only day to celebrate a mother.

But it’s a day we can go out a little more and in the end we know what our mothers have done for us.

But yet again not every story is the same and so celebrate the way you want and connect or reconnect.

Just live your journey and I hope nothing but the best for you as we head into a new day today

chill in my bones as it rains again, and the temperature continue to drop.

Feeling as if the winter never left.

Don’t want to get up and get out from under my warm sheets for the cold will only wrap it’s self around me again.

And well, I just want to dream of the warmth and the peace when my reality was simple.

With no problems to solve because I had the tough stuff figured out and all I had to do was go through with the plan.

doing wrong as the days go by and everything seems to pass me by and I should try harder to get it all done.

But here I am literally sitting in fear of writing because it may be no good or today could be the day you leave for good.

And maybe that wouldn’t be a bad thing if it’s not the end to writing or feeling like a writer.

Words come and go and all I can think of is how everything else is calling to me and even though I try to ignore them and write.

I know that won’t happen and the more I sit here trying to itch this craving that the results will be the same and there will be no relief for me because this is how my life is and I need to accept it.

Maybe I will able to write again but today just doesn’t feel like my day.

myself as I smile into the camera

not worrying about looking this way or that way for my way is always great for me.

To smile again in front of your camera. I didn’t think I would see you so soon, but here we are enjoying life.

But being safe while living the new life that is in front of us with no regrets or fears as we make the best of our situation.

Hoping this time will lead to more times and more memories as the days go on this week.

Before the storm and I wonder will I make it through this one.

It looks like it will change things all around and I’m not sure I’m ready for that but it’s moving faster now and within a blink of my eye.

It’s coming in closer and it’s time for me to seek shelter if I want to see the aftermath of this one.
