I love you to the Moon and back my love for you is as vast as the universe and Just as endless.

So it never stops growing.

Just when I think I can't love you anymore something happens and more love flows out.

I love you even when you're angry at me or I'm angry at you because anger can never stop my love. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

A man has committed sin but also committed good acts of kindness.

He is not evil or good he is both and just making mistakes along his way.

But most want to condemn him

They do not see the suffering in his eyes he knows he has done wrong in the world and he's paying the ultimate price

He has lost all hope in himself and in the world around him

You pass him on the street every day and ignore that he's there

He's a person with feelings and a heart that's quite bruised

He has been ostracized since he came back from the war with demons in his head

He once was a soldier who did his best fighting for his country because he wanted to protect us all but he came back with his mind not fully intact so he was thrown into the gutter to die.

Now all you have to do is give him a hand and the man he once was will start to show up once more. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Some people in this world are Vain and shallow as a puddle.

All they care about is flaunting their feathers like a peacock

Trying to show the world that they are perfect all they care about is their outer beauty and not what's Within

But what's within is more important kindness, love and generosity makes for such a beautiful soul

“So if “you ever doubt yourself remember this it's not what on the outside that matters it's the inside

You can either have a beautiful garden on the inside or be completely rotten the choice is all yours

Please Choose Wisely. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

Why does mankind do such evil things?

Some are just evil and enjoys the pleasure that hurting others may bring them.

Some are forced into evil acts against their very will

Other's say they do it for God they say it is his will

Many do it out of desperation

But it does not matter if you have a good reason or not evil is evil

Have you ever heard that the pathway to hell is paved with good intentions.

“If “you think you're doing something good by hurting others you're really doing something evil you're just too blind to see it. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

One morning I got up as the sun was Rising a field of flowers was soaked in morning dew and they glistened in the Sun what beauty to behold.


It dazzled me and I became Breathless as I looked upon such a serene site it truly gave me peace of mind and now I am stress free because all my worries have melted away. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

If I was a fly on the wall to observe your ***** secrets that you try to hide inside

The skeletons you keep in your closet we'll come stumbling out

And will be shown in the light of day then they won't be a secret anymore and you will no longer be a mystery that needs to be solved. Poem By Shelby Kathleen Nightingale

We are creatures of habit we tend to be this way without even realizing it.

Going about our days that seem to go almost the same way Going in circles repeating it

We like to stay in our comfort zone because we're comfortable in our skin that way.

But we should be more outgoing and adventurous because you only get to live once and when your life is over it's gone.

You'll never get it back so step out of your habit and live on the edge because if you're not you're taking up too much space. Poem by Shelby Kathleen Nightingale
