mywords2228

 

say it’s always been the light at the end of the path that got me through the days.

Would be the right and good thing to say but, sometimes the darkness wins for you let the hatred others throw on you.

Stay for a while because you didn’t want to fight anymore.

You had seen and heard it all and you just couldn’t put up with it anymore.

If they wanted to ruin their life than so be it.

God, didn’t pull you from the life on the unknown and temptation just to go back when time got too tough.

It’s now or never to follow your heart and break free because in all truth no one will love and respect you like you do.

In ways people will always disappoint if you let down your guard and expect them to be more like you.

You are one of a kind and at the end of the day you are what is push on or holding yourself back.

is our time together and it feels like it’s took so long for it to happen but, now that it is here I am quietly embracing the joy that I feel inside at this moment.

I know that we may sit here for a while and embrace the fact that this time won’t happen again for a long time but, we know that our love and bond won’t go away.

Even when we go away from this place I know that there will be more trips and moments for us to come a long.

Our time!

Poetry

I don’t

mywords2228

want to cover up anymore

the feelings inside that need to be expressed so you understand.

That this isn’t right and without change things are not going to get better for us.

Oh how I wish you would listen but, I feel like my breath would be wasted on you if I said a word.

Yet, I feel the worst is coming if I don’t say something now.

three line tales, week 163: a special deal

have a limited time to get there and yet as we walk up I don’t want it to look like I’m so desperate for this sale that only comes around so many times.

I know in my head I know what I need and where each item will be, I just have to make the right move so we can get in and get out without having to deal with all the stress of a crowd.

The time is near and I think I am ready to shop.

I

mywords2228

should let it go for this issue is not worth fighting for anymore.

I’m frustrated and tired of saying the same thing again and again at this point in my life.

I will work hard for me and not for you,for it’s just exhausting to keep up with the bullshit you spit out into the world.

I won’t judge you for I don’t know how you were raised or what you’ve gone through.

But, your action speak louder than your words and right now I see you.

And I’ve tried to give you a chance to show me its more than being lazy.

But, each day you prove me wrong and I end up doing more and more.

Until I feel wore out and used for your glory and I begin to think when did you become the Lord.

For my lord gives and doesn’t just take and the love he gives carries me not drag me along.

You are human just like me and there for you are not above me or under me.

We are equal and what may be my strength could be your weakness and so on.

But at the end of the day I will help you and I know you won’t do the same for me.

is my place to read and to write

to just smell the fresh air.

To get lost in the beauty of nature

and to not have to worry about how much time I have left before I have to go somewhere.

This is my time to do what I want and need to do.

go as you trust your skills and talent to carry you through this performance.

This is your time and its up to you to do what is best for you and don’t worry about others right now for if you don’t follow your dream now you won’t ever  truly live it.

So flip and jump and do your best even when the pressure is on for you know how hard you have worked and today you will walk away knowing you accomplished what you were meant to do.

Let go!

Poetry

It has

mywords2228

been one cold month and even though it is ending .

The cold doesn’t seem to be going with it.

The cold laying on my forehead as the weather outside gets colder by the minute.

When will the warmth show up and not only warm us up but brighten our days and nights.

Will the situation to our problem be quick or will it continue to be so long that we will forget the feeling of warmth outside when the sun is shining down on us more than a couple of hours.

And when the warmth is on us then there will be no cold air to feel and hid from that day or that night or even that week.

That

day I didn’t know what to expect and to my surprise.

You blew me away with all the love and time you took to make it so special.

To end up on top of your truck staring into your eyes and knowing that this moment was just the beginning to a great love that has so much more to grow on.

Three Line Tales, Week 159

to a love that is not true just so that your heart would be full for you didn’t want to let go and feel lonely again.

You knew the feelings between you and him were real but, over time things have changed and instead of walking away you hold on so tightly that you lose sight of what you truly want  and what you truly need to be happy and sane.

So I beg you to let go and move on to something better.

Happy

mywords2228

Valentine’s day everyone.

To most it’s just another Thursday and you already show your love towards each other everyday.

So keeping loving and brighten each other day and maybe go a little farther and do the same for someone else today.

For not all of us are blessed to have some around to show us such pure love.

Stay blessed and just do your best today to love yourself if that is all you can do.

Every moment counts no matter how big or small they are.

Falling

for you as this time of year

makes days fade away with no stress insight.

I know how I feel when it just you and me and I know that

its more than just a day for me and you.

This is another moment to expand the love that we have together and for us to remember that even the small things are building the larger plan in motion.

I know that my words will always melt your heart the memories of all the things

you do for me continues to melt mine.

And for this day I am grateful for you and when we come together and be one again I know the love will still be strong.

find my way out of this place, that I feel is holding me back and keeping me in place when all I want is to get out.

I’ve tried a couple of times to get out and some how they never seem to work out and here I sit planning my way in hope this time will be different.

I just want to taste the freedom that will come from me walking away from this place that makes me lose sight of what I’ve been working so hard for.

Looking

mywords2228

Back to all the choices I made

I feel like the one that sent me here.

wasn’t worth it as the struggle to stay true to oneself was slowly coming apart.

As people are you make you lose your mind and the good things that make you.

Who you always were, something that you were proud to be and now you’re the shell of that amazing person?

Looking at you now feels like the past wasn’t so bad and living in the present Hasn’t improved for you, just got worse.

And the hope for a better future for you is looking for a slim right now.

One can only hope things will get better for you soon.

You have come and gone, yet you seem to think you are wanted back again with everything being below zero and it’s not safe to be outside for very long or at all.

There you are a bird waiting for the storm to pass but, knowing it’s getting too cold for you to stay here watching the snow fall down and down.

You know your time to fly on will come soon and I hope it comes before it is too late for you because, this storm is no joke.
