I wander through
I trudge ahead
I just keep going
Through the mud
Up the hills
Over the bumps
I fall I stand back up
I get knocked back
I roll down the hill
I brush myself off
I cry I scream
I begin again
I strut on by
I don't stop
I just keep on rolling on
I refuse to stop
I just stand tall and walk
I know there's something
ahead
I can't stop
I wander through
Till my rest is given
I then will stop
Till then
Wander , I do.

As , I know
It isn't always
It could be
a maybe
a nope
a naugta
but you can
improve the chances
of a possibility
or a success
if you give it
and feed it
think of it
see it
and you just
might make
it be ...

Here we go again
Can't seem to stay ahead
the curve comes to fast
I can't seem to catch it
It's without a chance
It's just like my luck
I do admit , I felt like
hibernating
this weather *****
gets me hiding away
No energy to spare
So where do , I go from here
What can , I do
Can , I get ahead
Make up for my
loss of time
Will , I save the curve
I do hope , I can keep
catch and return it
before it passes me
and I'm outta luck

When this or that
When will or When can
No more whens
Just give me a now
not then or when
Just now like no time to waste
This second would be great

Last night we had passion
We were as we once we're
those nights when we were
enough
those nights we were
as one
it was all we needed
we gave each other
the love we desired
we shared without a word
our eyes said all we needed
as we looked at each other
We were enough

How can so many continue to believe
How can so many be so trusting
Trusting in our failing government
Trusting in the daily lies spread
What is it gonna take ?
It's so obvious it really is
It gets so frustrating
When will we all be done
What is it gonna take
I mean seriously can it get any worse
It's plain to see no one's caring
about our freedoms our rights our needs
It's all just a competition
So many of us poor barely scraping by
So many treated like crap
Can't we all say enough
It's our government
It's up to us to say enough
and if we don't like now
I'm sure it's gonna end
It won't be pretty it will be distruction
Utter pain and devastation

We crave comfort from another
We desire to be desired
We want to be wanted
Where do we go when we
are alone
We go alone to the loneliness
We try and we give to another
Yet we are alone
What choice do we have
We are alone
Where do we go
We go into ourselves
Where we can disappear
Where we can be with
our loneliness
it's what we have
We only have ourselves
We have no other
No comfort
No one to talk to
So we go into our
thoughts to create
for a awhile a sense
of hope
we can imagine if it where
different if we had it
how good it'd feel
That gives us
for awhile a place to go
when we have no other

Why
Jennifer DeLong Oct 2017
Why
I sit on my bed every night.
I look for a star to wish on, but not one is in sight.
So I try to sleep, but all I see is you.
I think to myself, is he feeling this too?
Instead, I sit around crying and being sad,
But before I go to sleep every night, I always smile
Because even though we didn't last long, it was worth the while.
You may not feel this feeling between us two,
But in the end you won't find anyone who loves you as much as I do.
I'll admit, I don't understand.
I put my faith in you
I ask myself why ?
Why won't he tell me goodbye?
I wish you would've told me from the start.
Because of you, now all I have left are the memories and a broken heart
I lust & love you
If , I ever get you back in my arms
I will never let you go Richard

A poem I wrote for someone I still dearly love
Jennifer DeLong Oct 2022
Why do we care so much ?
What is it that makes us so
sensitive to others emotions ?
Is cause we have been there
Or is it just who we are

To stop and ask again
are you ok ?
To offer to stay and be there
cause that's what , I wish
someone would do for me

So easy to just continue on our way
not wasting our time
To just do what we had plans to do

That's not me
I can't not be that way
I am to caring a deeply
sensitive soul

Others may say we give to much
Better to let them figure it out
They will ask if they need anything

I get that to
but will they or would , I
Most likely I wouldn't want
to be a burden

I am sensitive that's true
I feel others emotions
and it has a power over me

What is it ?
and why is was this gifted to me ?

Just a ?
that's been running through
my thoughts ..

Jennifer DeLong Sep 2023
You can try and try
Nothing changes
You can give and give
No one says thank you
You can cry and cry
No one wipes your tears
So why do we keep going
trying caring
because we are human
because it's who we are
We don't give up or not care
We just put it away
and preserver..

Why do I care
Why do , I still love
Why don't you care
Why is the ? ?
How fast things change
Why couldn't I see
where this was going
to end up
It's not all cause of me
there's a part of you
that put us here
Oh how , I wish ..
So much pain felt burning
inside my soul
It's like this fire
will burn outta control
You will never feel
my hurt
I know this
I know you
Your in your comfort
zone
You got an ego
it's way to high
so why then do I
feel so much hurt
Why is the ??
Sadly
never will I know
the answer
It's only the ??'s

Ready or not
Here , I come
wild and alive
grasping life with bare fists
no longer living in a daze
I'm in a new faze
no longer dazed
can't trip me
can't take me
I got it I got this
Knock knock
who's there
haha
Laughing all the way
ready to play
Come on try me
Life's a trip
with Rose colored glasses
What happens when you take them off
you get to see how fun it can be
No longer trapped in a illusion
so why not play why not why not
come out come out
fly in fly out
roll with it
life's a blast
take it for a ride
oh yes oh yes
I am I am

Within my magic
is me
Within my spirit
is my magic
To be me is to be filled
with the magic spirit
I am a manifestation
of the wiccan witch
The gifts bestowed upon me
come from the witches
who gifted me the knowledge
of the magical way to live
& spiritual power to heal
In there honor , I give my contribution to the witch's past
I honor them when , I cast my
spells and grow my magic
so within my soul
is the magic spirit
that is me
This wiccan witch

Wild in nature
Fly free with the wind
Dance with the waves
Grow like a tree
Discover the beauty
Wild in nature
Is where they long to be
We witches
are moonlight lovers
Forest seekers
Sky dreamers
Wild in nature
We are
We are nature
We are witches

Deeply I am lost
I feel my navigation
has spun outta control
I was content knowing
my destination
I felt secure sailing
through life
Knowing my gps
was in hand
I couldn't get lost
I had someone whom
I could call
so now
I'm lost at sea
I have lost my gps
How will I sail in life
now that
my call is no longer
a minute away
my navigation has
broken
Will , I just drift on land
Will , I sail again
I just don't know

Is it the cold or is it the short days ?
Living in the dark
Feeling so cold
That's what it must be
I long for the warm days
I live for days that never end.
Winter is just miserable
for me
I love the Christmas lights
I wish more filled neighborhoods
It's just not like it used to be
So come on spring
let's get this winter
over with
So my winter blues
can fade away ..

Tonight , I shall
dance around a open fire
burn the sage
Chant and Dance
Sing to her the mother
Ask for her blessings
for her protection
And she will
answer you
Give unto her your truth
Let her blessing be your guide
Listen to her
As she sings
with the wind
When she rages
fear not the storm
Let her release
her rage is magic
If you stop and feel it
Fear not
In all she does
It's for you and those
who believe
She is truth she is magic
Witch you may say
but let me tell you
That word is precious
Its who she is
its who I've am

Within my soul I am lost
Weak for a need to comfort me
When I can't feel your presence
Your energy distant & cold
Within my soul , I am lost
Searching for the desire
I desire to be desired
Sadly no desire do I find
When you go you take away
you shatter parts of me
cutting & left bleeding
all over my soul
Within me , I need to hear
I need you to speak to me
any way you can
Within me , I need to know
I just need to know

You
Jennifer DeLong Oct 2018
You
Finding within something screaming
Yearning for Wanting more
Try as , I might
For silence will not come
It pulls at my flesh
Leaving me tattered
Try as , I might
to hinder the pain
It's left screaming
I use my gifted knowing
to try to sooth
to comfort
Try as , I might
I must give up
For nothing will do
Its wanting you

I wish , I could be wicked
I wish , I could not care
I wish , I could be mad
I wish , I could show you
just once
how you hurt me
left me in despair
not a word shed
not a even a good bye
there's nothing , I could wish more
then , I hope karma slaps you like a *****
That's my curse , I give to you
cause your not a man
your who ? ??

It comes and goes
When it stops
I'll never know
Living in this life
Its all quite a maze
Going here maybe there
Quite confusing
Time doesn't stop
So you really never know
When or how
So as you grow
Your dreams may not be
Only now can you guess
Live it now let it go
Don't reach to far
Keep it real feel it breath it
It's all just a maze
So as you go
Remember you never know

Your there now
Thinking you have won
But warning is a *****
Who will come calling
I can promise you that
Your thinking you got it
But ***** be warned
Your karma is crawling
she is almost at your door
Ready or not
To late your done

Immerse me in your music
Let your melody
dance upon my skin
Surround me
in the notes you play
seducing me from within
Let the music take over
My body starts to sway
Emotion flows from your guitar
It's rhythm taking me away
On a journey
to where there is nothing
but your music surrounding me
Encasing my body
in the beauty of its melody © Jennifer DeLong 3/11/19
