Rainy Day

Just sitting here watching the rain fall and thinking

This rainy day has got me in my feelings

Watching the rain and trying to figure out why

Looking and hearing the rain trying to hide and hold back the tears

This rainy day gloomy and dark out matching the mood I am in plus I am mad and raged

Rainy day makes me want to stay in bed, I feel lazy

Trap myself inside and hide from it all

Rainy days sometimes I need a glass of wine or five

Rainy days it is hard but, on these days, I try to see the sunshine, keep calm

Rainy days has me down but not for long, this will past

Rainy days full of teary moments and sadness

Maybe I should keep a smile on my face no matter what on these

Rainy Days!!

Thank you for reading.

I Am Enough

01/25/2023PoemsBlogging, Faith, happy, I Am Enough, JustWrite, life, Love, poetry, Self-Love, WritingRay'Elaine

I Am Enough

I look in the mirror and I know that

I am enough

Strong, beautiful

Independent and vibrant

I am enough

Smart, amazing, fabulous, creative, and funny

No one can hold me down

I am enough

Even if you do not agree, even if you do not like me

I am enough

Standing tall, confident in me

I am me the lover, the fighter, the go-getter, all business, the Queen

I am enough

I look in the mirror and know the person starring back is strong and she is enough

Thank you for reading!

Change

Change

Sometimes we know a change is needed

We see what’s going on

We see how things play out in front of us

We feel a change is needed

Then we think, okay let’s do it

Make those necessary changes

Be firm

But then

Fear steps in

We fear the change

Don’t want too no longer

Make excuses

Doubt sets in

Questioning

Even when we know this needs to be done

Tell yourself do what is right

They say making a change could be a good thing

But

Why is it that changing things can be hard?

Easier said than done. Right?

Can we change for the better?

Why some fear change?

Is it the fear of the unknown while changing…?

Change yay or nay!!! LOL

Blessings and Love!!

Thank you for reading.

My Thoughts I

01/15/2023thoughtsBlog, Faith, Feelings, Hope, JustWrite, Lonely, Lost, Love, poetry, thoughts, WriteRay'Elaine

Lonely at all times…..My Thoughts!

Being around so many people, but still feel so lonely, still feel invisible

Sometimes when lonely by yourself silence seem so loud, loudness in the dark

Oh my, what is it?

Thank you!

I Smile II

I Smile II

I smile to keep from crying

Even when too, much is going on around me

I smile to hide my true self from people

I smile it is better than a wet and sad face

I smile pretending, do not want anyone to know

I smile to try to get through the day

I smile while wanting to get away

And with all that and more

I smile!

Thank you for reading.

Trying! A Poem!

12/22/2022Poems, thoughtsBlogging, Breathe, Creative Writing, Feelings, happy, Hard work, life, Love, Poems, poetry, Positive, Ray'Elaine, thoughts, Trying, writer, WritingRay'Elaine

Trying to catch a break

In this world

Struggles and

Burdens surround me

Follow ME

Feeling all alone

Trying to catch a breath

Staying afloat and sane

Carrying the most pain

Smile and cover it

All up

Trying to catch a break

Asking when it will end

Will I survive this fall?

Survive this world

Trying to catch a breath

Feel deep underwater

Needing help needing guidance

Falling, fast and in a hurry

Trying to catch a break

Living a different way

Pretending to be happy

Trying to catch a breath

Take deep breaths in and out

Relax and heal

Content indeed

While still

Underwater

Take a breather and a break

I am trying!

Blessings All

Thank you for reading.

Scared

12/21/2022Poems, thoughtsBlackWriter, Blog, Faith, Feelings, happy, JustWrite, life, Love, Poems, poetry, Ray'Elaine, Scared, thoughts, WritingRay'Elaine

You do not know what is out there

Your scared to take that step

Scared of rejection, embarrassment, failure

Scared of the unknown

You tell yourself I can do it

But doubt, and anxiety tells you otherwise

You are scared of what you might or might not become

Scared of what people will say or think about you

You procrastinate, put things on hold

Scared to put yourself out there

Scared to follow your dreams

Your scared of your own potential

Thank you for reading!

Battle With Myself II

Battle with Myself II

Still here battling the

Inner me

Scars that scream out

Damn these struggles

Even with them I

Try to rise above

Within the struggles

Remain

Beautiful

Smart

Woman

Remain positive

Stand my ground

Battles that I try

To overcome

Try not to

Let it keep

Me down

Get the grasp

Of life

Love

Hope

The world

Even with these battles

I am becoming

One with me

Grown woman

Inner me

Battles

It will not last long

Well

That is what they say

Battles

Do not stay

They leave wounds

Battle in me

Going to

Go down

I will keep

Fighting

Destroying

Who comes against me

Taking them as they come

Struggle/battles

Life battles

I will win

Even with

The demons within

The dark side of ME

Still this

Battle within myself

Will subside.

A work in progress

Or maybe

The

Battle with myself continues….

Blessings and Love!

Thank you for reading.
