Tired of living in your shadow
your shadow of lies

You steal my light and sunshine
keep my smile upside down

You keep me like a secret
mock me like a clown
Michelle A Ford Sep 2020
which ones to post and which ones to share
or
just sit still and be in it
there is no time to spare

hurry it will pass
but
there will be more

capture it on camera video
or
just relax and explore

moments are always
and
time is of the essence

i choose my friends to live in the presence
of everything

i wont shake my past
i understand the present
i emulate the future

life is effervescent

they say it is the scent of all not just a woman
it is the aroma of the moment

so be in it

not always is it pleasant
some will riddle you with fear

my dearest friends of this life
this is exactly why we are here

to not judge each other blindly
or live with contempt

moments are fleeting
always remember to repent

i live in this moment of verse for you
raise my glass and toast

before the hearse will eventually come to

my eye is my captain
my tounge is the sword

my fingers work thru verse
my heart at the door

i wish  you this moment of peace thru words
you are what you eat
so i will give you this treat

i love you all to the moon and back
even my haters that strike and attack

this too shall pass and moment will end
go live this day be your own hack

<3 Michelle ~~~

He is awake and waiting

Across the screen we sit

Does he ever sleep

Wondering if the shoe fits

Impatient and annoyed  I stare

Into the great somewhere

As you clamor for the top
I dig a little deeper

You grappel at the garbage dump
I embrace my inner reaper

Rising up your back on your feet
Internalized thought and so I retreat

An Oscar you say
The grouch ...who me .. okay

Your shaking your head in disbelief
She gave up her turn
Trash is bittersweet

Grouchy and green you think I am jealous
I am that angry bestie
To hell with being over zealous

You say are you not afraid of hell
My answer.. that my dear is the wishing well

Your pennies you pitched
I retrieved from the ditch

Copper is the basis
on cellular DNA sis

You say to me so its you that is the conductor

I retrieve to my plan
in my aluminum can

I am but a grump
who just loves her dump

Me and the Grinch
have like this thing

My temper is almost past the point of boiling
I think that is called syrup

I am too sweet to a fault not my own

I was left on the stove
cooking away

Totally disregarded on
anything i have to say

Sold now at a higher price
Awww she's soooo nice

You silly fools
as you consume my fuel

I will rot your teeth
and add to your waist

As you guzzle and consume
Think my temper will be erased

I am now inside of you
try to keep My pace

Oh my your feeling flush
you should not have consumed so much

Sweet on the palate
full in your belly
No matter now where and who
I am not simple jelly

Anyways Ill simmer
I will be your after dinner

Before  and in the middle
of the day

You've tasted my madness
So who now is the winner
