Miracle

Bravery is unexplainable
how can we possibly comprehend
Like in crisis
How adrenaline kicks in
unexpectedly muscles clench
And all of a sudden
Lifting a car no longer seems
Impossible...
Infact pretty much anything is
Possible
When your child's in trouble
All of a sudden
You have no choice
You have to be a hero
It's like your brain takes over
Your body just minds
Accomplishing a miracle

Planted

I turned around
Found you hiding
You smirked slyly
Ask me to keep my lip zipped
You must've thought me niave
Without the smallest shield
Certainly no breastplate or
Sword of protection
You assumed me a helpless mess!
My only crime,
Assuming you were honest
Honesty was too high a price
For you could not afford the consequence!
After realizing my mistake I found my
Roots so deep
Planted into the richest soil
By a never ending stream
My trunk so thick
No longer can you sway me
I am immoveable
Steadfast
**Planted

Traveling

Winding through
The evergreens
Up this way
Back down what brings
Sitting in the back
Swaying this & that
So many resturaunts
Adding inches to hips
Licking what's left
From fingertips
Bodies uncomfortable
squished in tight
Dying to stop
To stay for the night
All stretched out
All cuddled in
Continental breakfast
On the road by 6 am
We had some fun, we saw the sights
Exciting days & beautiful nights
Exhausted in the evening
When we hit the hay
Up bright & early
The very next day
Back through the fields
Down the winding roads
To familiar things
To a place called home

Let go

What irritates you most?
Rubs you wrong
Makes you cringe
Squint your eyes
Bite your lip
Don't express what's locked
Deep down inside
Reality tries to peek
It's ugly head
Take the cramped and jagged
Way up on the edge
Stay focused on your own two feet
Don't fall off the ledge
Steady now
Let the rain roll
Right off your back
Don't look back
Learn to say no
Let go

Rest Assured

Relax sit back
Take a moment
Just breathe
It's not all about you
wait and see
If you spend your selfish life
Always me me me
Soon you'll find
Nobody's by your side
Since the one you want the most
Is gone for life

Time

Precious are the moments
Since moments turn to hours
Hours turn to days, and so on
Nothing is more expensive
More fleeting
Nor has the quality
Time is golden
It is not a small thing
But the small things
That matter
Since time is so valuable
Choose wisely
It to whom you'll give

One day

One day I won't get upset
I won't feel regret
I'll never remember
Anything that's been said
I'll be able to focus
Life will be endless
Possibilities without fear
Or needing forgiveness
Love will be overflowing
No guessing
No unknowing
I won't think about mistakes
I won't dwell on imperfection
I won't give in when temptation
Rears it's ugly head
Nothing will hurt me
I'll feel only love instead

Just feeling a bit sad after some news I heard.
