Pass behaviors
Present regrets
Realized when at the mirror I stood
I have to live with myself
And I want to be someone good to know
When I look at myself
I don't want to tear up
I want to be able to smile and say well done
Reno Dallas Oct 2015
Finding my way
In a dark place
Alone in the rain
I don't want to fight this one alone
I stand here crying in the rain and it isn't apparent to anyone but me
Stabbing pain to the core of my soul
Just enough to make me give up
But I keep walking
Not knowing where I will end up
Still crying
The rain is my tears
Every drop exposes my fears
I'm drenched
But no longer confused
I wipe my face
As the rain stops
And I enter the building
Adjusting myself for work
working hard, no, just taking it hard
Reno Dallas Oct 2015
My palms are facing up
My fingertips reach toward the heavens
Open like a book
My life story can be read
Flipping through the pages
Treasures unfold
A life undiscovered
With mystery Intrigue
Filling in gaps
And finding traps
Hidden doors
Leading nowhere
Bookcases with rooms behind them
What kind of life was this
Secretive

Paint a picture
Of the night
Color it with
A pencil bright
For the moon is shining
And the stars are many
Twinkling and winking goodnight
Sprinkle the sky with white puffy clouds
With blue tones hanging above
Finish it with wind blown trees
That dance
As their shadows make silhouettes
In windows
While we sleep

Speak gently to me
For I am weak  When we embrace
I see more than just a mere man
Who stands tall
And is very pleasant to gaze upon
When I hear your voice it echoes through my soul
Making me feel so grateful
That you are mine to behold
Your walk is something to be desired
Effortlessly moving
Gracefully
As no other
A gift you are
To me
Thank you
Infatuation

Earth has no sorrow
Heaven can't heal
Random thought

Visions I see
I can't sleep
Eyes wide open
In the dark
Laying watching
Trying to sleep
Listen to nothing
But my heart beat
The day ahead is planned for
People I might meet there are words for
Mistakes that may be made are dealt with
In the corners of my mind
Twisting turning
Trying to get comfortable
I'm to hot, now I'm cold
When will this end
I decided to stay awake
Discovering I can determine how my day goes
It occurs to me my attitude needed adjusting
In order to have a fruitful day
So as I laid there in the dark
I rehearsed what I might say
I practiced smiling
Instead of frowning
Laughing instead of doubting
Just being agreeable
Even if I didn't want to
Mornings here
Dressing for the day
Made my way out
Can't wait to try it out
Good morning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I said with a smile
As I preceded to get into my car
No one was there I was just practicing
I wore myself out practicing
When it was time to do it
I failed and said ***** it
