Sometimes I close my eyes,
And pretend I'm up in a tree.
And it's the tallest tree in the world.
And I can see movie stars, and presidents, and the nobodies.
And they see me,
And they smile,
And they wave.
And they know that I am important.
Little old me
In my big tall tree.
And it makes me feel less tragic.

German Spy
 Jun 2013 hello
AJ
Sometimes I whisper my secrets to the ceiling.
Only when the lights are off,
And the fan is spinning.
The fan is very nosey.
I think he is a German spy.
Or maybe I'm the German spy,
And that's what my secrets are all about.
No one will ever know.
Except,
Of course,
For the ceiling.

If you get really quite
And lay down on a hill
You can hear the clouds talking.
They talk about being tired,
And wanting to take a rest,
About how guilty they feel for the hurricanes,
And how proud they are of that year's April rains.
And if you look real intently,
If look them in the eye,
With the courage of a teady bear colnel,
They might even look down at you
And smile.

You are my beautiful, nagging wife.
We have been married for fifty-one years,
Seven months,
And eleven days, exactly.
You are the most annoying person I have ever come across,
And my best friend.
It can be simplified into vanilla coke,
Ginger ships,
And savior by Rise Against.
You are my secret jar.
You are my rain.
You are my better half.
We are two halves of one old and demented, crazy cat lady.
Self destruction and all.
Destroy my reassurance,
And reassure my destruction,
But I love you more than I hate tomatoes,
And I'll never ask for a divorce.

i look at life through the small end of the telescope

where problems seem so far away
then i can take time in dealing
with the issues i'm dealing today

i look at life through the small end of the telescope

so what ever life wants to hurl
is not big enough to bother me
when what's in front of me is the smallest of worlds

i look at life through the small end of the telescope

Never give up on hope for hope is our souls thought,
Our souls right to dream, to see, to live, to become.
Our soul is our inner guidance, our direction, our way out.
If we want to change our ways No matter what they may be,
We need to look ungrudgingly at ourselves and listen to our spiritual belief.
Not being afraid to be lead into unfamiliar territory.
Accept challenge stare it down and concur, then you will see the true power you really hold deep inside.

Why are we so ******* ourselves? Is it our mind waiting for challenge?  Don’t deny it, it has a  right to prove to you how strong you really are.
We are always more weak in our mirror then others perceive us as, and maybe need to be the  weakest “in our own eyes“.
This self proclaimed “weakness” helps strengthen these areas of our life.
To help us overcome self inflicted fears and struggles in our everyday being.
We may think we are not gaining any distance, but once we look back to our past and what we have gained. we know we need not run to gain a mile walking will get the same results in time.

This is natural, it is natural to be ******* ourselves and challenge our minds thoughts. After all we should always be the toughest critic we ever have to face. Then if others need to judge us we already know what they have said, (since we have battled it in our own mind.) leading us to a victorious battle without fight just simple knowledge of self acceptance, improvement and understanding.

Wants
 Jun 2013 hello

I want to love again.
I want to hug and never let go
I want to think about someone
every second of every day
and sing love songs
and slowly dance
cheek to cheek.

I wanna fall again.
I want to learn everything about someone
I want to be hurt when I take things wrong
I want the thrills and stress
with laughs and sadness
and sweet talks
and compliments.

I want to lust again.
I want to miss someone
I want regular ***
with regular kisses
and hand holding
and sweaty cuddling.

I want to say I love you again
and make stupid gifts
and spend money on nothing
and run around just being together
I want to love to spend time with someone
and I want someone to love me back.
I want to be loved again.
