She wanted me to pray To be the spiritual head I told her she ought to lead the way a while Her self righteous I did no wrong It’s all my fault again I don’t respect her treat her in the way she thinks she deserves I fail that test Don’t even want to try But then again There are those days When in her eyes I see the sun as it rises the bride of my youth who is the prize in my life Tells me I’m Jekyll No now I’m Hyde The truth is all I know That I am plain ole me Predictable

Conflicted Life
How do you cope with the loss of a loved one, a dear one, or worse a lost one? One day, one hour, one minute at a time, at first they are each long, like an eternity, but time as they say, heals all wounds, they just leave out slowly and never completely because the brokenness left in the wake of such a loss can not be repaired in this life ever... as emptiness fills the void their touching you in the past would have left Funny, it was never appreciated but taken for granted that you would have another day to share another hour to live and love at least another minute one last touch but such is life once passed up you may never pass that way again so make the most of each moment with your loving family and friends! Resolve yourself to not get robbed no more losses will you take and come away so empty handed live fully with each breath making each so warm they’re like branded into the hearts of those you touch and touch you back so much for the better!
