Now I sit and hesitate,
Shall I **** or *******?
Myself- 2018

The fluorescent lights draw me in, A sea of wonder that captures the crowds gaze,
The world seems so bright in otherwise dark times.

In our day to day lives we all make mistakes,
It’s part of human nature to learn from experience.

But unless we are able to give and receive criticism, to help each other to succeed,
How can we ever hope to get better?

As a society, we priorotize those who fail in an attempt to demoralize,
And the more we idiolize these actions, we find ourselves drifting apart.

All I am trying to say is that we should be able to criticize, and receive such openly,
So that as a group and individuals, we may learn and grow healthilly.
I saw a comment on someone’s poem the other day that didn’t try to help the writer, but instead attempted to make them feel stupid for their mistakes.
Just thought I’d write something to shed some light in the subject.

It’s been a long, long time since I’ve seen your face.

It’s been a long, long time from when you last held me close.

It’s been a long, long time
Since I last heard your voice.

I miss you, and I feel it will be a long, long time until I’m able to forget you.

The boiling water
Sloshes around
In the mug,

Dissolving the coffee
grains into a
Pool of liquid luxury.

As the mug touches my lips,
Letting the bitter sweet
Coffee trickle into my mouth,

I remember how good,
Despite my problems,
I really have it in life.
It’s important to remember the little things in life.

The rain taps on my window,
As the light from the tablet shines on my face, I stare into the dark recesses of my room.

The rain taps on my window,
My mind drifts off, and in that time, I wish that you were here with me.

The only company I have with me tonight, to remind that I am not alone,
Is the rain that’s tapping on my window.
