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.

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.

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.

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…

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.

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

I took for granted that I laughed everyday
Saying “I miss you” is just so cliché
Without you nothing is the same
I don’t even want to think about it or say your name
The house is empty without your presence
It only smells of burning flames and incense
It’s not even worth coming home anymore
I close my eyes and drop to the floor
I can’t even cry because I’ve become so numb
Thinking about THAT day, with a much different outcome
Because of this, she’s gone for good
The funny thing is, you knew she would
I have to figure out a way to go on
I can hear your voice saying, “Don’t worry you’re strong”
The days go by– one at a time
Praying for the day, I will be just fine
Maybe that day missing you, will come to an end
And you will somehow help me, laugh again.

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.

“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.”

Don’t ever give up.
Hold on
Try to get along
I’m not saying nothing’s wrong
Just be strong
And soon your imagination
Will turn into determination
Then you will find some reconciliation
And find peace within yourself
But until then
You will have to bend
Just adjust
Buckle up
It’s going to be a bumpy ride
So set aside
Your emotions
Be open
To ideas
And let go of all your fears
Because time heals
Everything will soon work out
Don’t pout
Try and figure it out
Get your life together
Forget the stormy weather
Close your eyes and pray to see the sun
Open them
And hopefully
Your new beginning has just begun.
