Trials, Tribulations, Thoughts, Treasures, Tragedy, and Triumphs…

Take These Things and Think.

Are These just Tricks Taught by Takers Trying to Test?

Tame your Temper, before They Take your Throne.

Then…

THINK AGAIN and  Tell the Tale that no one has Told.

Their Tackiness is Tactful and could be mistaken for Taste

So,

Try to Turn the Tables set by Time, so your life isn’t a Taboo.

Your Truth is yours for the Taking.

 

Short and Sweet

The blessing everyone needed,
which came as a surprise.

This beautiful person
With bright, happy eyes.

To love you is a pleasure,
one you will never know.

Life is more meaningful,
watching you grow.

Once I see your face,
my day is complete.

And every time I hear you laugh,
my heart skips a beat.

Someone’s prayers must have been answered
from way up above.

Because you ARE the definition of “True Love.“


For Ria.

Just because…

I smile because that’s what you want to see.

I laugh because that’s what you want to hear.

I show up because that’s what you expect.

I try because I care.

I care because I actually do…

But, I can’t say the same about you.

What am I doing?

Finally…

Standards are high
Needing someone willing to try.

Too grown to be let down,
but also too grown to keep someone around.

Take over my mind,
Not my body or my life.

When I see the glass half empty,
Can you see it half full?

Love me,
But give me time.

Time to understand what love really is
Time to see what my hearts wants, so it can give.

I’m tired
Tired of myself.

I finally chose me, so give me some space
I’ll eventually learn to love, BUT at my own pace.

The End of Summer…

summer days
summer nights
summer walks

Never Happened…

hot days
beach days
vacation days

Never Happened…

It’s Cold
It’s Raining
It’s Gloomy

Things are changing… and not for the better

What is going on?


Summers are not HOT anymore, but Global warming is a “Hoax?”

Women are STILL fighting for Rights and Equality?

People are STILL fighting Racism?

Fighting for Acceptance?

Fighting at ALL?

Are we living in a dream?

Because this is Unbelievable…

It’s not funny… Wake Up!

We NEED to do Better.

If not now, for our Future,

And our Future’s, Future.

Hopefully, it’s “hot” next summer

That is all…

Flowers…

​I got flowers the other day

But they weren’t for me

 

A very cliché gesture,

In actuality

 

Maybe that’s why I gave them away

A dozen long-stem roses to put on display?

 

Roses, roses, full of thorns

The same long-stem roses given when people mourn.

 

Sorry, happy birthday and I miss you.

Why do flowers make these true?

 

Say what you mean and mean what you say,

Don’t use flowers to make it okay.

 

Flowers are a symbol that are supposed to mean love.

When given flowers is that what people are thinking of?

 

Just like its thorns that made you bleed

Love is just a figment of what we think we need.

Unfortunate Circumstance

When you finally miss me i’ll be gone.

When you finally decide I’m worth it, I won’t be waiting.

My watch broke, because I stared at it too long.

Waiting…

I’m enough for me,
but there’s also plenty of fish in the sea.

Someone who is waiting and worthy of my wasted time.

“Wasted time is worse than wasted love”

Do me one last favor and don’t shed one tear-
You had your chance.
You no longer have me here-
You have created your own– unfortunate circumstance

A Defining Moment

You’re just a fantasy
of what I think I need.

Your presence makes me sick
but, I constantly need to feed.

Addicted to your behavior
but, I’m upset all time.

I keep coming back for more,
making sure that you’re all mine.

I swear this is normal,
I keep telling myself this.

This can’t be what they talk about…
Perfect bliss?

I gave it a shot,
there was a fine line.

I never felt that before,
so that had to be a bad sign.

Being around you,
makes my heart skip a beat.

But, I think that’s stress
or my body claiming defeat.

My patience is running out,
it’s literally almost done.

The fates have spoken,
and I think “They” won.

I can’t sleep at all,
because I feel so bad.

I dwell on memories
and the times we once had.

But I will not suffer another day,
with you by my side.

You do not defend my honor
or protect my pride.

Letting you go,
is the best thing I can do.

Forget what the movies say,
it’s not me… it’s YOU.

Addiction

The mind is deep and dark, but so is the club
Lights, smoke, alcohol- feelings become a blur

Stress takes a back seat, when THAT song comes on
Music so loud, your head throbs, but what’s new?

Reality sets in… “thinking” is not an option
Questions with no answers, running through the mind

Is this what it takes to forget?
Is this my only option?

Mood changes. Go with the flow…

This is much needed, a brief moment…a break


Sweat, blurred vision, an instantaneous high

Addiction IS the drugs, the alcohol, the sex, the food, the work, the smoking, the shopping, the internet, the gambling, the video games…

Fulfilling YOUR addiction, the crave subsides
Addicted to that feeling… of not feeling at all.

A Tiny (New Year) Poem

“Throw your penny down the “New Year” well,

if it comes true only time will tell.

The Devil will want you to use your penny to pay his toll,

but please think first before you sell your soul.

As the crowd waits for the BIG bright ball to drop,

in this moment, the whole world will stop.

As we begin another year,

live and let go of all your fears.

Look UP and never look BACK,

life will soon get back on track.

Just remember to stay nothing less than positive,

and always be aware of the life you want to live.”
