Life is difficult, life at times can be hard
Everyone is capable of having a rough start
Do not give up, slow your pace
Do not put your life to waste
One day will be yours to shine
Look at the puffin, taking one step at the time
Trying to write poems to encourage others and myself. If you can think of a puffin waddeling one step at the time it will definitely lighten up your day. Enjoy!
She created
A doorway in her mind,
she always keeps one foot in
And one foot out.

However,
Her mind is always lingering
On the other side -
She often feels the need
To breakout!

On the other side,
The trees are wise ancient
Majestic giants,
Rustic leaves
Cover the fertile ground.

The moon is always full,
It is always perfectly round.

The sun is always shining,
But sometimes she has it rain -
Just to hear
The sweet serene sound...

She loves the smell
Of the earth afterwards -
The damp rich ground.

On the other side of the doorway,
Her soul is free -
Here,
She is immune
From emotional stress,
Strain, and pain.

Inspiration is carried
Through the wind,
There is nothing to lose,
But everything to gain.

Nature,
Is always most accepting,
Embracing her essence,

Here, she is alive,
She has an illuminated spirit -
A pure white glowing presence.

She never needs to struggle
For her every breath...

Everything is truly alive -
Nothing, at all, resembles death.

Rivers, crystal-clear,
Flowing with vitality,

Flora and fauna,
Beauty in an abundance -
Thriving,
Celebrating their precious Individuality.

Magnificent mountains
Reaching into heaven,
The bluest ocean,
Wrapping itself around
A breathtaking coast,

Everything about this place
Is what she adores -
What her soul absolutely loves
The most.

On this side,
Nobody can disturb her peace,
Nobody can break her spirit,

Nobody can take her freedom,
Nobody can invade her tranquil thoughts - that's all there is to it!

Here,
Butterflies and doves
Glide through the air,
In dance -
Touching her eyes
With a heavenly love -
So pure.

She always keeps one foot in
And one foot out,
But her heart and her soul
Reside here -
Because here,
Less, is more!

382 days and counting
Since I've last seen you
Not a day has gone by since then
That I don't incredibly miss you
Hardly a single breath of fresh air has been
Inhaled without even the slightest hint of you
And all I seem to do is drink more without you

382 days checked off the calendar but I still keep waiting
Anticipating for the morning I wake up when I'm no longer waiting
Waiting to let go or the day I stop wasting
Wasting these days away, erasing the images I keep repainting
Beautiful mural images all over my mind and I can't  stop retracing
Remembering all of our bitter night endings
are better than this empty bed that I'm facing

382 days have passed and I'm trying to let go
Clenching my fists toward my stomach and taking a blow
Pulling my hair out from the roots just to watch it regrow
Smiling in front of the world and screaming into my pillow
Going crazy and wishing I could go back to 382 days ago.
This came out of nowhere. Dedicated to the one that got away, the one I gave away because he was not good for me, as you can see. Just a thought that turned into a rant. Don't worry, it happens.
I want to heal
from the feeling of being misunderstood
It’s not easy
to be yourself when nobody will let you
I could tell them
my dreams are like stormy weather
But they might say
they fade away like the morning dew

I want to feel
the freedom of being who I am
You may remember
but I’m not that person anymore
If you want to live
in a place where the past is about you
Just don’t ask me
because I’m about now and not before

I want to kneel
where I can talk to God all alone
If you stand close
it may be harder on you than on me
I’m not proud of that
it’s just that I had let some things go
Now that I’m able
what I’ve become is the way it will be

I want to steal
things from my former self that I own
What is mine
is the way I will love someone new
What is yours
is the memory of how I loved you
But there is no place
that can tell the lie that I know is true
I already know how to live
But I don't know you
I want to ask you
If being in love
Is what you want to do

I decided to let it go
Life is not for me to complain
Asking you to waste time with me
It's a chance to find out
If love doesn't work as hard as we do

I'm not trying to convince anybody
I don't need someone to be right
I just realized how long we've talking
I feel less sure than when I walked in
But falling too fast is what fools do

I see you decided to listen to me
You really want to know
I'm talking too much again
I have to believe in myself
I just need to know if you do
As long as the sun drifts by
I'll make believe we'll be together
I thought you would be my last
And if you are I still have long to live
As long as I believe

As long as the moon lingers
I'll make believe we never broke up
I thought you were just away
And if you are then soon you'll be home
As long as I believe

As long as I believe
As long as the sky is seen
By eyes watching the distant edge of longing
As long
As long
As long as I believe
There's still time

As long as magic fools a child
I'll believe in rabbits and top hats
I thought you were playing a game
And if you are I'll soon hear laughter
As long as I believe

As long as I believe
As long as a boy can dream
In memories longing to make some more
As long
As long
As long as I believe
There's still time
