You're not
going to
master the
rest of your
life in one
day.
   Just relax.
  master the day,
   then just keep
   doing that
    every day.

The best part
    of your life?
every morning.

         You
         have
a new opportunity
            to become a
     happier version
              of yourself.

I’m afraid to say the words
“I’m good”
Because whenever I do,
Things just get bad again
Lye Apr 2019
I would tell you the secrets
Engraved in my mind
But I’m still afraid




Of what we may find
I don’t know what I’ve hidden from not only others, but myself.

Though she had twisted her ankle
And broken a heel
She kept on dancing through the night
Every day, that’s how I want to feel
My Nanna (my Grandad’s mom) died a year ago. She had Alzheimer’s when she died, but she held off until the day that her husband had died many, many years ago. My mom was very close to her and told me the story that when she was younger, she went out dancing. She’d twisted her ankle, but though it hurt, she danced her heart out. I’m sad that I never really knew her because she lived in England and I have only been once.

People leave you out in the cold and get mad when you learn how to get warm by yourself.

He never knocked,
He never broke in,
He just came and called it home.

I want to lay
In the tall, tall grass
Enjoy the peace while it lasts

I want to hear
A sweet melody
Floating along in the summer breeze

I want to hang my feet
In a babbling stream
Let my troubles flow out of me

I want to look up to
A clear blue sky
Wonder what lives in that world so high

I want to be
Alone to dream
My face bathing in a warm sunbeam

I wish to be
In a land so divine
Where love will prevail
And hate outshined
Inspired by today’s poem if the day, “letting go” by Sue
