alyssajane - Hello Poetry

Life is a hurricane Wind blows you down Rain washes away the pain of the storm Bright skies are ahead First darkness envelopes Creeps in and hits you when you least expect it We are all waves Crashing into one another Drowning in the noise and chaos Hoping for rescue One day it will come Again, when you least expect it The clouds will vanish and the waters will calm Love is the rescue.

Hurricane

Life is a hurricane Wind blows you down Rain washes away the pain of the storm Bright skies are ahead First darkness envelopes Creeps in and hits you when you least expect it We are all waves Crashing into one another Drowning in the noise and chaos Hoping for rescue One day it will come Again, when you least expect it The clouds will vanish and the waters will calm Love is the rescue.

Thinking about tomorrow Today and yesterday The unknown and the unfathomable Taking away with me what is useful Trying to discard what is not Talk is cheap and silence can cost Tables turning in my brain Tomorrow holds much more Than today ever can Tell me, why is it that people Tend to speak up only when it concerns Them, their family, their friends Teaching humans to stand up for each other To have compassion and faith That, is when we will see change That, is when we will feel peace Together is how we were meant to be

I was thinking about life and death today How we all could vanish from the very spot We are in because no one can outrun death It doesn't wait for anyone. It's really scary, honestly I will admit I am afraid of death and dying. But we all will eventually, and we all could tonight or tomorrow So why do we have so much hate within our souls? Why do we bash, break, and steal people's hearts... and dignity I wish that I could wake up tomorrow and see strangers holding hands Or laughing together Healing, touching, loving people's hearts But we are far away from love This country we call great and free I will pray tonight for all of us, Lord please, be with me.

If we focused all of our energy on loving one other Instead of bashing the candidates or president Or bashing others because of their views Imagine where we could be The problems in today’s world will never be fixed But one man or women alone It is within us And it has always been So I ask you to open your hearts And lighten your spirits Today is not the end And we still have life Racism existed before today And it should never have existed to begin with We are all humans We are all important

Sipping on the warm glow of hot tea Thinking that maybe you were meant for me The grass may be greener on the other side But you’re there for me in high and low tide You shine in every aspect of life One day, I want to be your wife When I was younger I thought I’d never find you That my love life would forever be blue There you stood And I knew I would

We are all a tree With branches that weigh us down And leaves that change with the seasons We need water to survive The wind has the ability to knock us down Or sway our branches to such a point That we feel as if things will never be the same But next year, we start over With fresh leaves and ideas We can become anew We all have roots that keep us in our place Keep us from leaning over too far Humanity is scattered about randomly But also planted for purpose The forests are slowly disappearing And soon humanity could too Treat humanity as trees We need them to breathe To live

I woke up Dreading the cold Dreading the day to come Sunshine seeped beneath the clouds But freezing rain is all I see Snowflakes twirled around Hitting my cheeks Piercing my skin I want to be free like these flakes But they all hit the ground too So in the end, arent we all really just snowflakes? Falling around in some kind of order Soon we too will disappear

Said you'd always be white blood Be there for me when things got tough But things got tough and you ran Ran farther away than the sun And now I'm left caged in my mind Wondering if you'll ever come back Seeing your car pulling away In my mind I replay I need you right here with me But you don't think you can handle that If you can't, then go Stay where you are I can't do this alone But it looks like I have to

Can't do it alone

Said you'd always be white blood Be there for me when things got tough But things got tough and you ran Ran farther away than the sun And now I'm left caged in my mind Wondering if you'll ever come back Seeing your car pulling away In my mind I replay I need you right here with me But you don't think you can handle that If you can't, then go Stay where you are I can't do this alone But it looks like I have to

feeling like I'm at the bottom of the ocean floor Sitting in sand and waves roll above me Listening to crashing and clanging of water Thinking that I am not where I should be The present is a very strange place to be You cannot look back or forward Without overthinking or worrying Why do we all struggle with this? I wish I could breathe easier And think more clearly But one day I know it will happen And all of the pain will be worth it

Change is in the air Unfamiliar faces Fear sinks in And whispers quietly "You cannot do this" "You shall not succeed" Nothing is the way it was You want it all back Change is frightening And overwhelming But it shall not be feared It can bring amazing things Things never imagined The world's unseen
