~Complexity in Feeling~
Ronney Dec 2017
They run deep
They are heavy
They make the heart unsteady
Easy to flow
Harder to control
They blind & make the mind weary
To share is to expose
Ones mind
Ones body
Ones soul
These are the feelings
Unwarranted
Denied
Or
Yet to be made known
~Reflection: Feelings or emotions are sometimes hard to understand because they are experienced simultaneously. The catalyst is not always known & sometimes we don’t want to acknowledge them because doing so reaffirms that they exist and they are real.

~hope you enjoyed :)

~ Where are you going? ~
Ronney May 2016
Either

you're going fast to nowhere

Or**

going Slowly to somewhere

~~~~~~~~
~ why do we rush through life?

~ why not just take it slow and enjoy the scenery?

~ the destination is always there but you must decide how to get there

~ fragility ~
Ronney Apr 2016
Though I'm broken

I'm in the process

Of making progress

**Mendings my focus
~ its hard putting things together again but not impossible sometimes I forget that

Own it
Ronney Jul 2016
The blame I own

Give excuses to deny it

i won't

Say lies to hide it

I don't

Cause that behaviour I don't condone

Just One question for you though...

**are you willing to take credit for blame of your own?
I won't deny blame when it's deserved in fact I'll own it I only expect you to do the same

~ live your life ~
Ronney Apr 2016
When you live in order to survive

Yet you need to revive

The slither of life you hold inside

You must decide

Be successful and feel alive

Or

Deprive yourself and be unsatisfied

**

sometimes we live only to exist, waiting for something to give meanings to our lives

*We need to remember we are solely responsible for our own happiness and we chose what brings meaning into our lives

Ronney Jul 2016
Life weighs us down with burdens

But

We have reason to raise our heads up

dont forget to raise your head

Strands of grey
Ronney Apr 2016
Age has worn us away

Our youth we now crave

moving with aching bones

Baring Wrinkles deeply sewn

These strand of grey show

That one day, we must all grow old

The puppet & the Puppeteer
Ronney Apr 2016
Pull at my strings

Make me do things

Under your control

I have no hope

Party as I go

It's a facade that I show

For I am your puppet

And you the puppeteer

~ all ears ~
Ronney Apr 2016
Silent pleas

Become the loudest screams

Of one begging help me

From day to night

By your side

There I'll wait

To be your aid

I'm all ears

For you

my dear
~ if anyone feels like talking I'm all about listening

Talking was never my strong suit anyway :)

~ Battle We Lost ~
Ronney Aug 2016
Names were casted down like stones

Layers upon layers

We lied buried beneath its weight

We were crushed  

It'd been too heavy to carry

Too much to bare

We'd succumbed

For today we'd lost the battle
For today I let me myself lose

I give up

Dear sister
Ronney Apr 2016
Dear sister

Why do you stay?

Through your suffering?

Through your pain?

he's marked the flesh

I see the shame

If only you'd speak the truth.

Give in his name

Dear sister

You know, I love you dear

Iv tried to keep you close

Though you shrink back in fear.

Dear sister

You know, he won't stop

You say that he loves you

Yet, the bruises say more

Dear sister

Show no fear

Please have strength

Leave before death appears
Dear sisters and brothers (that's right I said brothers) speak up tell the truth and free yourselves.

speak out if you need help.

Sorry to any men victims of violence also because Iv put focus on women but I know that men suffer violence against them sometimes at the hands of women or men so I apologise.

Dual POV
Ronney Mar 2022
Push and Pull.
Acting the fool.
Sick and tired.
Done with the bull...

Its time to be honest.
Haven't done that in the longest...
Its one of many, A failed promise.

We each had our role.
Both digging into that hole.
These things, chip away the mind and soul.

Gentleness sometimes gives way to resolve.

Kind words are a pleasure.
Given in truth an absolute treasure.
Although we don't always have it altogether.
Somehow we manage to storm the weather.
we each have our story and play dual roles. Everything is a matter of perspective. We are both antagonist and protagonist. That what i wanted to capture in this. Haven't completely cracked it but this is my best for now. Hope you enjoyed :)

~Begins with you~
Ronney Apr 2016
When all is wrong with the world

But the world says

'something is wrong with you'

Do you comply to their judgement?

Assessing all that is wrong with you

Picking and prodding

Changing and morphing

Till there's nothing left of you

But a mere whisper of what you once were

Becoming a product of the world

Say this to the world

Say that Your life

begins and ends with you

Empty canvas
Ronney Apr 2016
A work of art

Can come from humble beginnings

Just like an empty canvas

Fuelled with endless possibilities

Chances are it'll turn out

A masterpiece
Not sure if this qualifies as poetry or philosophy but it's what I believe

point being what may seem like nothing could turn out to be anything

Therefore take a chance on anything and everything (within reason) :)

Lost Confidence
Ronney Mar 2021
Don't take much to shatter,
what's already bruised & battered.
Cant say "no offence intended"
Cause the content of the next sentence
you spew,  you know wont flatter.

The intention is to hurt.
Grind your target into dirt.
Passed off as a joke
****, felt my self confidence just broke.

Putting in all that work
takes courage to believe in your self worth
only to have people on a mission
sharing all their criticism
non-constructive just destructive
making you question all decisions
till the mind can only think in tunnel vision

brings you to the point when your alone
all those affirmations become monotone
cant draw inspiration cause all feeling has turned to stone
Some take it to heart till all they long for is to turn into bone
-Sometimes its better to hold your words
learn to say things right
Get to know somebody before you hand out your advise
Sometimes the person you talk to might not be ready
to hear it

— The End —
