I’m looking at you
Staring in your eyes
Such a beautiful blue
With a hint of surprise

What are you thinking
What’s on your mind
I’d love to know
So I could make you mine

I want to know you
Deep into your soul
So I can love you
And make you feel whole

I’d take care of you
Support whatever you do
I’d never judge
Or disappoint you

Give me a chance
To love you my dear
I won’t let you down
There’s nothing to fear

I know you’ve been hurt badly, so have I
I’d never do anything to make you cry

I only want to make you happy
Share a life with you
We can start over together
A lifetime brand new

The sun shines through the slats in my blinds
Bright and beautiful, with a melody from my wind chimes

Warmth spreading throughout the room
Like a blanket of serenity, no place for gloom

How I love the sun
Even on the coldest of days
A blanket of fluffy clouds
Creating a spectacular haze

These are the days to cherish and savor
For the storms will come, sharp as a razor

I wait for the rainbow, it surely will appear
Along with the sun, and a sky so clear

I close my eyes and all I can see
Is a beautiful day in front of me

I woke up this morning
To a brand new day
Feeling light as a feather
Joyful and gay

The sky is a portrait
Of red, blue and grey
Such a beautiful sight
On this beautiful day

The future looks bright
For the first time in a while
I actually woke up today with a smile

I pray that my life will start turning around
I’m picking myself up off the ground

Starting fresh, a new attitude
A new pep in my step, a new positive mood

Life is good, just for today…
life is far better
in not having an answer
and reaching
a dead end.

The tapestry was hung perfectly on the wall
Telling a story of kings and queens standing tall
Unicorns and castles, green rolling hills
Everyone happy, not a drop of wine would be spilled
People dancing in ballrooms
White horses carrying Shining Knights
Through streets where crowds cheered
All through the night
A perfect woven fantasy taking over the room
Hanging strong and proud, taking away my gloom
I began to melt into the woven cloth
Maybe here I would find my troth
I wanted to stay in this fantasy
A piece of the tapestry I wanted to be
I look at the majestic work of art
I feel the power pulling at my heart

I feel blessed today to just be alive
Thankful and grateful
No need to hide
I've been so self centered
Always dwelling on me
It's time to wake up
And focus on thee
I'm not alone
I cannot forget
You're always with me
I shall not fret
You've carried me this far
I trust in your strength
Sometimes I forget
I need always keep the faith
*
Amen*

Meaningless
Life has a
Whole new
Meaning

Is it not clear and apparent
These paths we forsake
To subscribe to such morals
And decline to partake

At different degrees we shed our skin
Our potential's apparently flawed in the end
We instill golden rules in the minds of our young
Paradoxical beliefs about Bibles and guns

Devils and demons who knock at our doors
Heretics and killers calling for wars
Lobbyists and liars scorching our earth
Yet we are responsible for all that it's worth.

re to 03-17
is probably that there is none, maybe.



is all a mixture, some  feel important,

others may seem like minor details,

yet part of that whole, that make us, makes

a life.



a small life maybe, yet some of those things

will be remembered.

Despair has been my only friend
She visits me again and again
This relationship we have
Has to come to an end
I’m tired and worn
“I’ll make her go away”, this I have sworn
But she is so real
So close and familiar
Without her, how will I survive?
I don’t know, but it’s time to say goodbye

Today is the day
I take back my life
And do something different
Put down the knife
I want to live
Joyous and free
I want to find the real, true me
I have a full day
No idea what it will bring
I have hope, and that’s enough to make me sing
Something positive for a change :)

I thought I had it all
The world by the *****
Little did I know
I was slowly destroying myself
Day after day
Pain and guilt, lies and deception
This was my way of life
For a very long time
I was in the deepest black hole
Called addiction
There seemed no way out
One big circle, get up and do it all over again
Until one day
I couldn’t do it anymore
I dropped to my knees, I dropped to the floor
I picked up the phone
And made the call
That was the turning point for me
Two years later and I’m doing fine
I have hope that some day
My life will be divine
One day at a time

I just realized today
Being single is not so bad
I am finally happy, I’m extremely glad
No one to report to
No one to ask “please”
No one to worry about when I hear that first sneeze
The world is mine
I’m free as a bird
“I’m Single” I scream, for all to be heard
The thought of being single used to fill me with fear
But to my surprise, I like not having you here
I do what I want
Pick and choose who I date
I’m in no hurry to find a new mate
