She stands alone in a darkened place
Familiar thoughts of shame disgrace

Consumed with guilt
Self loathing surrounds

The love of self
No where to be found

Self esteem dispersed
Asunder
No hope no dreams
No eyes of wonder

Encompassed by these chains that bind
Her thoughts beliefs controlled by the mind
Her actions governed from deep within
Trauma fear dissociation

A monotonous cycle hard to break
Yet possible
If sound advice you take
Your destruct button must stay on hold
Look deep within your very soul

Your thoughts about yourself must change
To allow harmful  actions rearrange
Take care
A new relationship begin
Persevere don't give in

Reverse your thoughts
Of self
Be kind
Leave
All the hurt and pain behind


Do not stay down
Instead stand tall

(Learning to love yourself)        

Is

The

Greatest

Love

Of

All. X

He does not think before he speaks
Wounding all with words he meets
A trail of destruction left behind
Oblivious of his dysfunctional mind

Never wrong he's always right
Insecurity is his plight
An enemy to himself within
Everything always about him

No middle ground
No compromise
He'll twist the truth
With articulate lies

His ego grandiose
As he stands tall
His aim to watch you
Retreat and fall
Emotionally void
From the human race
Defiance etched upon his face

Your life now fraught with  pain and worry
As he does never intend to say
I'm sorry

His silence slowly whispers a calm into my soul
As I kneel before him
I tell him of life's toll
I ask him to forgive
All hatred pain and strife
That's woven in amongst us
He says
I came that you may have life
Abundance was my virtue
Faith hope and love
My aim
Please stay upon this path my child
In you I shall remain
Feed upon the words I left
This is your daily bread
Many will come in my name
Don't let them turn your head
So many are false prophets
Their false doctrine
They will sew
Not by their words
But by their deeds
Their fruits will surely show
If they are ones to follow
Their hearts are filled with love
The way the truth the light of god
Shines through from up above

Beneath these skies so much surrounds
The air we breath with darkened sound

Noise from traffic fills the air
Pollution Spewing everywhere

Skeletal frames of the human race
Reflect upon the ground they face

The clock it rules it regulates
It delegates anticipates

No escape no release
An intruder -til our time does cease

Responsibilities scream and shout
Following us til we check out
No where to hide
No where to run
They encroach our freedom
****** our fun

So little time to laugh and play
Not enough hours in a day
Evaluation is the key
Awareness of identity

Our purpose here
Our hopes our dreams
What really matters
What life means

Careful of each step we take
Learning from each mistake

So many things  a desired need
So much waste so much greed

As we walk beneath these skies above


Know -       the greatest gift

Is.

Love

And

Be  Loved

It only has four letters
Yet no matter who we are
Despite all of our differences
We search for it
near and far

Some don't understand it
They search their whole life long
Others try to reach us
Through their lyrics in a song

Many try to find a way by the giving of the rose
Or  by  the writing of a letter
Hoping that it shows

Our approach when we express it
Should b as gentle as the dove
So pure so light
So clear so bright
So powerful  is....... LOVE

Sometimes there are storms ahead
They uproot us from the ground
Our clarity of thought distorts
No answers why?
Are found

Our inner core is challenged
Our sole purpose why we're here
These times are sent to test us
In the hope we will draw near

To a greater presence
To which every knee will bow
His love for all mankind once shown
Still
Prevalent to us now

He only asks for us to seek
His love's where we begin
To open up our hearts
And pray that he shall dwell within

When I walk amongst my garden
Outstretched so far n wide
Each day I see it's nurtured paths
Filled with flowers
Either side

I gaze upon its beauty
As I go on my way
The flowers speak a language
No human voice could say

The colours of the roses
When there in full bloom
The fragrance overwhelms me
With their beautiful perfume

The apple blossom gently falls
Like confetti to the ground
Bird whistles echo
Through the trees
Such beauty all around
