Lifetime game
Crystal Freda Dec 2019
Every moment of our lives
will all just turn into a memory.
As you walk, breathe, eat, and sleep,
this was all meant to be.

Cherish the hands you have
and embrace your feet to walk
Encourage your thoughts and
your mouth to kindly talk.

Life is a short game
that not all get to play.
You are an uniquely created player
who gets to experience it every day.

Under that smile
Crystal Freda Feb 2018
Under that smile
lies hurt and pain.
Under that smile,
everything's the same.

Under that smile,
she trembles and thinks.
Under that smile,
everything is blink.

Under that smile,
it may seem cold,
but under that smile
she has a beautiful soul.
175 · Jan 2018
Her words flew..
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
She laid on the sand
with a pen in her hand.
A notebook lay in front of her
and words quickly concur.

Her green eyes look to the sky
and she saw her words fly.
Each syllable and every note
began to sing and began to float.

The sky was full of magic lyrics
as they flew with the spirits
sailing with beatific leaven
and onward to Heaven.
174 · Dec 2019
Overflows the minds
Crystal Freda Dec 2019
May her mind grow
branches of burly,beckoning thoughts.
May they lengthen out
with roots migrating their pots.

Let her words speak vigorously
with crisp, colorful essence.
May she unfold fields of flowers
inhaling the strongest fluorescence.

Let her mind and her kindness
takeoff with bold, strenuous wings.
May her voice awaken the songs
the world needs to sing.

Sometimes
Crystal Freda Jan 2019
Sometimes God puts a comma
because your story is not over.
Sometimes He puts a period,
but He will give you closure.
174 · Aug 2017
Cherry Tree Sky.
Crystal Freda Aug 2017
Mellow blossoms carry
rose scented smells.
The cherry tree settles
with its crayola petals.

Red chrysanthemums
scattered throughout the field
surrounded by the tree
created so beautifully.

Colors so florid
in the midst of the sky.
Birds soar this colorful welkin.
Delicacy made from Heaven.

Waiting by the flowers
Crystal Freda Sep 2018
Her petite body sat on the bench.
She waited for mother to be done.
As her mother picked all pretty flowers,
she sat patiently glazing at each one.

Her white dress glimmered
with her rosy red matching the flowers.
Her thoughts and imagination
grew within the second hour.

Soon interrupted in her thinking
came a small, soft ball of fur.
Its ears perked as it rubbed her dress
and soon began to purr.

Her small, smooth hand
brushed lightly against the kitty.
Her fur was quite warm and mellow,
and her sunshine eyes were so pretty.

Mother was now done,
and the girl took her new furry cat.
She grabbed her mother's hand,
and they carried the blossoms back.

Autumn's Enjoyment
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
She climbed gently over the branch
and she rolled up her jeans
and dipped her feet in the cool water
as she watched all of nature's scenes.
She was enthused by the colors
of every reddish, golden leaf
and everything so  vivid mirrored
on the wavy water beneath.
She retrieved her book
she had next to her yellow sweater.
She enjoyed each chapter
as she enjoyed the weather.
172 · Sep 2018
Understudy
Crystal Freda Sep 2018
She lay in the soft green grasses
surrounded by shady, shabby trees.
She closes her eyes and hears
the sounds of the forest.
Her heart beats with the rays of the sun
shimmering over her blonde hair.
She opens her eyes to fern vines
hanging above on the trees.
Her eyes intake all of nature.
All the greens and many colors.
She smiles and enjoys the day
in the forest exploring.
172 · Feb 2018
Mining Inside
Crystal Freda Feb 2018
In a dark, faraway cave
where she was alone.
Her heart was a statue
made of rock solid stone.

Words scratched frequently
at the gray, sharp rock.
Batterings and stabs
she used this stone as a block.

Until one day the words shifted
The words were no longer hurtful and cold.
These words pounded at the rock
and the gravel turned into gold.
172 · Dec 2018
Nose in a book
Crystal Freda Dec 2018
She lay and wait by the tree
reading her exciting book.
She felt a chilly breeze
at her face as the trees shook.

Intrigued in her reading,
she read how the town was saved
and everyone was happy at the end
and new beginnings were paved.

She look at her watch
and couldn't believe the time!
It was 11:00,
and the bus was supposed to be at 9.

She was engrossed in her book,
she completely missed the bus.
Now when she will have to walk home
and her mother will make a fuss!
171 · Jan 2018
Growth
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
We all grow.
Pain may hit you,
hurt you,
but you will glow.
Every moment
of your life
you are together
or broken.
Growth puts you
where you need to be.
Hard time approach,
but you always get through...
170 · Feb 2018
Go there
Crystal Freda Feb 2018
Stand tall
and embrace it all.
Break every wall
and get up after every fall.

Be strong,
and move along.
Erase every wrong,
wait, it won't take long.

Take time to love,
and flutter like a dove.
No matter how tough,
you are enough.
169 · Jan 2019
Hope for Someday
Crystal Freda Jan 2019
She has hope
even when seemed lost.
She wanted to be happy
no matter the cost.

Her thoughts were dark
even in the brightest of times.
She tried to look and feel okay,
but her heart just couldn't shine.

She still has hope
but she will find it in her own way.
She doesn't have to find just anything
to brighten up her day.
168 · Dec 2018
steer
Crystal Freda Dec 2018
she glared at her
as she disappeared
from her life,
and maybe from her memory...

she never felt loved,
this was a hurt,
but not as much
as it could be...

she lived her life
like any normal kid,
thought of you a little,
not much from day to day.

If you didn't want her then,
she won't want you now,
you left her,
now she will steer you away

Scenic Course
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Across the wavy seas
I see everything.
On this boulder
I stand amazed
along with the breeze.

Skies so potent and scenic,
The trip took awhile,
but I made it
and it was worth it,
but should never be repeated.

Every rock covered in green
leads to a path
and curvy roads
that leads to castles
ever so beautiful and foreseen.
168 · Jan 2019
If to succeed
Crystal Freda Jan 2019
If I walked a little,
would I walk at all?
If I tried a little,
would someone take my fall?

If I spoke out,
would anyone hear me?
If I made the goal,
would anyone cheer me?

If I made a mistake,
would you help or accuse me?
If I hurt myself,
would you lift or abuse me?

People should never need to hear if
when they are in need.
Reach out in love
in order for someone to succeed.

Heavenly Night Dreams
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
A snowy midnight moon
glazes over your window.
Ice cold winds try to breeze in
with a rushing flow.

Peaceful dreams encounter you
with an angel's sweet voice
calming you from the brisk winds
and effecting you to rejoice.

Dreams bringing such positivity
and wondrous light
Glorious stars settle in the skies
for this magical night.

Angels sing such amazing songs
floating in your dreams.
Wings ever so heavenly
like radiant, sparkling beams.

Rest is taken softly
on this chilly Christmas night
where angels are flying
with magic ever so bright.
168 · Aug 2017
Someone is There.
Crystal Freda Aug 2017
I love you to the moon and back.
    It's amazing when you think about that.
    It's amazing how I think you are a star.
  Especially when we've come so far.
You've held my hand for so long.
You've been there all along.
You had my back in every way.
You always decided to stay.
I don't know what I do.
    If I knew I didn't have you to run to.
We all need someone.
167 · Jan 2018
In this Place
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
I lift my hands.
I bow on my knees.
I look up high
and sing melodies.

My heart beats for your praise
and I shout out your name.
I feel like nothing,
but you still love me the same.

My eyes fill with tears
and they fall on my face.
You pick me up
and take me to our special place.

I seek you
as you shine your light.
You keep me safe
from the darkness of the night.

I stand by You
and not by myself.
You wrap me in your arms
and I don't want to be anywhere else
167 · Aug 2017
The moon watching below ...
Crystal Freda Aug 2017
City lights glitter and flicker
as street lights turn on.
Cars speed by
and then they are gone.

Trees are blowing with the wind
and house lights shut down.
Darkness fills the world
and I glisten on the ground.

I'm shining on the river.
I'm following through the window of your car.
I'm glimmering above the forest.
I'm with you wherever you are.
166 · Nov 2018
Spoken love
Crystal Freda Nov 2018
Is she cherished to you?
Is she is in your heart?
Do you miss her
when you guys are apart?

She patiently waits alone
for you to text her good night,
but nothing ever comes
and it leaves her in a fright.

Do you even care anymore
to brighten her day?
She needs to know she is loved
in order for her to stay.

She needs to know she is special
and she's needs to be told
that she is more precious
than a million pieces of gold...
164 · Apr 2018
I Am Who You Are
Crystal Freda Apr 2018
You lift me up
when I am down.
I call Your name
when I am bound.
and I need Your love
when I am on the ground.

I'm on my knees
crying every night.
You grab my face
and tell me it's all right.
I call Your name
with all my might.

In Your presence
I am found.
You knight me queen
with a golden crown.
I am infinitely Yours
forever and now.
163 · Jan 2018
Snow drips
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Taupe limbs covered
with powdery snow
clumped together
with a silvery glow.
Harsh winds brush
each crystal mix
drops to the ground
from the taupe sticks.
160 · May 2018
Enjoy Your Today
Crystal Freda May 2018
Tomorrow may be unknown,
that's why we make today last.
Enjoy your today,
and enjoy your past.

You never know when time ends.
Just live a full life of today,
just don't rush it,
do it your way.

Life is a one chance,
you never know what it may bring.
Just watch it pass by,
and explore everything.
160 · May 2018
Sometimes love...
Crystal Freda May 2018
Hearts in love,
but sometimes in pain.
The sun will shine,
but there will be rain.

Some fruit so sweet,
but some can be bitter.
Sometimes you win,
yet sometimes a quitter.

Life shows promise,
but yet sadness.
You'll have love,
then it will vanish.

Some love is forever,
and it can be quite sweet.
Some can take awhile,
and some when you meet.

Love is a beautiful thing,
even if it can hurt.
You will always love,
and it will be in your heart.
159 · Jan 2018
She lived her life
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
She climbed every ridge
every step
every rock
and conquered every bridge.

She has cried many tears,
lived many days
many times
and overcame her fears.

She has lived her span
a great one,
an amazing one,
and she's done all she can.
159 · Oct 2017
Wait and Trust.
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
I sit and wait
like a lingering vine
whose fruit hasn't bloomed yet.

Everything is gone
except for God
who knows what He's doing.

I need to trust
more than I think I can
to be brave.

Pain hampers
my aching heart,
I wait and trust.

Someday my spirit
will be full of jubilation
as He planned.
158 · Apr 2018
Wake up
Crystal Freda Apr 2018
Wake up!
in your mind.
You keep wasting
wasting your time.

Live!
Live as you can.
Not everything
needs to be planned.

Speak up!
Time to be woken.
Speak your thoughts
for they need to be spoken.
158 · Apr 2019
Winter Blessings
Crystal Freda Apr 2019
Ghost white flurries
parade silently on the slanted *****.
Little drops of winter blessings
unraveling sheer chutes of hope.

Almighty's shining spotlight
hanging in Picotee sky.
Magical and radiant
messengers roam and angelify.

The Lord's house powerfully
sustained and stood.
A calming and Celeste night
begat winter's blessings on the wood.
158 · Jan 2018
Ever Heard
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
Her heart beated with the music
as she listened to every word.
Some meaningful
and some disturb
but her heart knew
it rang with each song
ever heard.
157 · Jan 2018
Smile Today
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
You should smile today.
You should remember
how long you have
lived to stay.

Some people did not make
it to this date
but somehow you are here,
you are well and awake.

You saw the sun shine bright
when you started your day,
and you were able feel something
as you read this write.
157 · Aug 2018
He will light your path
Crystal Freda Aug 2018
Darkness surrounded her.
Her path ceded into a tunnel.
A tunnel of obscurity.
Every step was a struggle.

Her eyes brewed with tears
and her heart ached with fear.
No one could see her tears
and no one cared to hear.

She looked up at the darkness
and cried out to God.
She choked on her tears
and her voice was weary and flawed.

Soon a light commenced
and filled the tunnel with light.
Her path glowed with radiance
and her steps were bright.
Crystal Freda Sep 2017
say good-bye
to the sun
no more blazing
it's time to be gone

lower down
to disappear
such a lovely light
when you were here

settling to
another blue, starry,
and glorious night
time to be sparkly

gusting leaves
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
cold breezes
brush and crush
these colored, withered
leaves.
winds gust
against these dying
trees.

and breaking,
new change,

Scarlet Bellows.
Crystal Freda Sep 2017
Blossoms bellow down.
Down
a
dusky

Scarlet petals

Falling Colors.
Crystal Freda Sep 2017
Colors so florid
all around her.
Flaming hot, torrid
causing emotions to stir.
Breathing autumn mist air
with pine and subtle oak trees.
She glares and stares
as her hair brushes with the breeze.
Her eyes partake the flamboyant
sights straight ahead.
On to her voyage
where the colors have led.
155 · Jan 2019
In her tears
Crystal Freda Jan 2019
All her body covered in tears
like a salt filled bath.
A river of water
flowing in her path.

She tries to swim in her tears
one drop after the last.
Every memory haunts her,
she can't escape her past.

She envies the happy
standing on the sun.
Being able to stand in peace
not having to run.

Though we all have problems
we try to run from,
and if we escape too many
it won't be just some.

It's hard to stand
when you're drowning in tears.
Do all you can do
in order to conquer your fears.

Life gives us a chance
to capture more than one.
Maybe one day you will be happy
and standing on the sun.
155 · Nov 2018
broken lines
Crystal Freda Nov 2018
she kneels down
listening
to nothing
but repulsive breathing
we used to talk,
but now
we just listen
to the sounds
of our restless eupnea.
after awhile of these
flat and banal nights,
the lines to our phones
are broken, cut in half
just like our hearts...
155 · Sep 2017
Pressing Rapids.
Crystal Freda Sep 2017
Fresh waters flashing down
Down in fast, beating motion.
Each sprinkle, each splash to the ground
Down to the magnificent ocean.

Green, majestic hills
Ladder up to the sky.
Freeing, lively thrills
Press on through and by.

Thundering sounds attack your ears
As each wave strikes a rock
Making blasting whirs
stirring up quite a shock.

Loud crashing waves are such a beauty
Although they do not come smoothly.
154 · Dec 2018
She tried to be...
Crystal Freda Dec 2018
She tried to be perfect.
She tried to be what everyone wanted.
She tried to follow rules,
but she was terribly shunted.

She tried to be smarter.
She tried to be what everyone thought.
She tried it,
but she was not.

She is who is,
not who she tried to be.
She acts how she is,
that's not what everyone wants to see.
154 · Apr 2019
Celestial Love
Crystal Freda Apr 2019
Celestial love
blossomed in her inner self
She let go of history
for she now seeking help.

She beckoned for His presence
for tired of living in fear.
Graveling for more
pining Him near.

After many years
of enduring this emptiness.
She at last unfurled heaven
and floated with His faithfulness.
154 · May 2018
Her mind
Crystal Freda May 2018
Every story
she read
shuffled in her mind.
From when
she was little
to even this time.
Her mind
has grown
to greatest heights.
Ideas blown
from bulbs
shining the brightest lights.
Her mind
so creative
and collecting storage.
Her heart
so content
on exploring this knowledge.

Be the Sun
Crystal Freda Oct 2017
Shine,

Glimmer,

Radiate,

Beam,
like a shooting star.
Glitter,
be who you exactly are.

Wings
Crystal Freda Jan 2018
When we were together,
we took flight.
We discovered every inch
and every sight.
Under you wing
I feet secure
until one day
our flight had a detour.
Your fluttering wings
no longer fluttered with mine.
You floated away
and my wings began to decline.
I felt scissors slowly
cut against my back
causing me to fall
and my flight lost track.
My wings were gone
as I fell from the sky.
Losing my heart
and my ability to fly.
Don't let a person define you.
152 · Jan 2019
Sunshine
Crystal Freda Jan 2019
A beautiful thing.
Something only God can bring.

Rising above in the sky.
Glimmering above so high.

A bright yellow everyone can see.
Makes you feel giddy and free.

Let the Sunshine in your life.
Let it cover you with it's brilliant light.

You will be great

have to wait.
