Listen to me I speak the truth when no one else is willing to.

I stand up for what is right and fight for the one's who can't.

I will stay true to myself no matter how many demons try to knock me down. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

I am lost in a river of hopelessness looking for dry ground so I do not drown.

Only to be ****** into a Whirlpool of misery where my darkest fear's thrive and as I slowly drown in my fear's.

I see a light fly overhead bright and beautiful it pulls me into his loving arm's and I know I am safe from the cruel world that tries to drive me mad. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

What hurt's the most is to love you but never be able to tell you it is like I took a vow of silence.

I let the fear of your possible rejection of me take away my very voice and by doing so I made myself into a puppet on a string.

A beautiful doll that never has control of their own actions. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Baby you better not hit me because I'll pop you right back.

I'm not going to be your punching bag or your doormat and if you start something with me it will surely be a fight that will go down in history.

So baby back up and check yourself because every time I get knocked down I get back up stronger and better than before. I'll show you True Grit. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

I was so in love with you.

You were my drug of choice so addicting like *******.

I thought you loved me back but you were just filling me with your poison because of you I went into toxic shock.

Now I'm detoxing from your love and the obsession you caused in me hopefully this rehab will set me free. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Two land's separated by sea but always connected.

That is like you and I.

we may be miles apart but we're always connected with the love we share in our hearts. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Constant like the star's in the sky my love for you is never-ending it's always flowing like the Nile into the ocean.

A real treasure worth a thousand kingdoms. It is priceless and worth every ounce of my energy and courage to protect it.

because it's a part of the very thing that complete me. poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
