Fly!

Poems, Poems, thoughts, , , ,

Fly be free

Spread your wings and fly

Fly high and above

Above those who said you would not make it

Spread your wings and fly

Fly with a smile and pride

Fly and leave the troubles and problems behind

Spread your wings and fly

Fly freely controlling your own life

Fly and become your dreams

Fly and take those risk

Spread your wings and fly

Fly freely and be you!

Thank you for reading.

Time

poetry, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Time flies past us

As life goes on

Time

Something we have no control over

Time

Waits for no one

Time

We think we have more of it

Think again we really don’t

Time

With life combines, can be chaos

Time

Here and now

Moving at a fast pace

Slows down for NONE

Time

While we stand still, waiting and wanting more

Times flies by us

With no worries

No commitments

Time

Comes with regret, hurt, lost, pain, sadness, numbness

Time

Brings life problems

Time moving fast

Time something we cannot stop

But we must keep moving

Time

Something life will never

Be without

Life goes on, no matter what

Time

We stand by and watch

Time

Again, we cannot stop

Whether we want to or not

-Time-

Push Away…

Poems, poetry, , , , , , , , ,

My shadows deep and whispers low, I tread a path so lone

Where echoes of my footsteps keep a rhythm, soft, monotone

Around me, souls reach out in hope, their warmth a fleeting day

Yet, in this dance, I falter and choose instead to push away

The world is a tapestry of bonds, threads intertwining tight

Each stitch a promise, colored bright, against the fall of night

But fear, like frost, creeps in my heart, turning warmest gold to gray

And in my chill, I draw the veil and gently push away

Why do I guard this fortress, keep its gates so closely drawn?

Why do I fear the touch of dawn, the light before the morning?

Perhaps in solitude, I find bittersweet dismay

For, in the end, it’s me I’ve lost each time I push away

Yet, in the quiet hope whispers, a tender, fragile strain

Maybe bridges can be built where only walls remain

With cautious steps, could I reach out, let in the light of day?

Or will I wander, evermore, a soul that pushes away?

-Push Away-

Blessings and Love!

Healing In Small Steps

poetry, thoughts, , , , , ,

Soft healing begins

Healing like warm rain

Like dawn brushing tender light

Falling on the quiet ache

Over tired bones

Slow forgiving light

I rise where the hurt once lived

I mend in small tender steps

Carried by a calmer breath

Held by softness as I rise

Knowing that I am healing in small tender steps

Still

Going and going and going

-Healing In Small Steps-

Blessings and Love!

Your Dream!

Never say what you cannot do. Never say your dreams cannot come true.

Train yourself, train your mind to know and understand that you can do anything you set your mind to. Work hard and have faith. Take the necessary steps that are needed to fulfill your wants in life and pursue your dreams. Yes, sometimes it can be scary putting yourself out there and taking risks, but if you do not do that then you will never know what could have happened. You must believe in yourself and believe in the process because getting to your dreams may not be an easy road. Have people who love you and who are there to help and support you and you do the same for them. Having support is important whether it is for personal or business it’s great to have a loving person around. Put the work in and work hard for what is yours. You are the one who holds the key to your success. I have, in the past, gotten in my own m way and had to learn to trust and believe in myself, build myself up. I have also learned that stuff does not happen overnight you have to have patience. Motivated is another part of wanting your dream to be motivated every day and ready to make it happen, be dedicated. If you are not motivated to do this it will not work out. Practice your craft, over and over if need be feeling it, breathing it, and claiming it. Prove it to yourself first then the world. Live your life live your dream. You can do it. Always believe in your dream always believe in yourself.

Blessings and Love! Have Faith and Believe!

#Dream #JustWrite

Sabotage.

Poems, poetry, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

In my mind, a constant battle waged

A war between reason and impulse, uncaged

I knew what was right, what I should do

Yet self-sabotage always seemed to ensue.

Hurting those I loved, leaving them in tears

My actions driven by my deepest fears

I couldn’t seem to break free of this curse

My inner demons, my own worst enemy, perverse.

I pushed away those who wanted to help

My stubbornness, my pride, my greatest yelp

But deep down inside, I knew the truth

That I was the cause of my own abuse.

It took time and effort to turn things around

To break free of the chains that had me bound

Apologies were made, amends were sought

And slowly but surely, my life was re-wrought.

It’s not easy to face the harm we’ve caused

To admit our faults, to remove the gauze

But in doing so, we can find redemption

And learn to love ourselves without exception.

But damn sometimes it’s the

Self sabotage

That gets us!

Blessings and Love

Thank you for reading.

The Weight of What Was Real!

poetry, , , , , , , , , , , ,

The truth came not as a whisper

Just raw

But a loud thunderclap at dawn

Shattering the silence 

We’d built our lives upon

It wore no mask of mercy

No veil to soften the blow

Just raw

An unvarnished memory 

Of things we didn’t know

It peeled back painted stories

Exposed the hidden seams

Turning lullabies into warnings

And daylight into dreams

We begged it to be more kinder

To lie just one more time

But truth does not negotiate 

With comfort or with crime

It named the ghosts we buried

Uncloaked the quiet pain

And stitched our hearts with needles 

Of loss we can’t explain

Yet in its cruel unveiling

A strange release was found

For trauma born of honesty 

Still walks on solid ground

So let it burn the pages

Let it flood the past with light

Truth may wound without permission

But it never hides from sight!

Blessings and Love!
