#decisions poems on Hello Poetry

Jonathan Williams Nov 2017

Its just you and I.
You could always see through my lies.
When you left me behind.
Your tears fell from my eyes.

Even though I broke your heart, my scar.
Glad to see you know you're a star, my star.
And even though our love is far, so far
Please don't leave me, please don't leave me, please don't leave me, Don't you leave me babe.

If I could rewind time to when you were my first.
You know i'd erase the time I became your worst.
Please believe in me when i say that I learned.
It was your love, your love, your love, that I always have yearned.

Can there be an us?
Even though I lost all your trust.
Don't give up on me .
I need more than just your lust.

Yes I know I broke your heart, my scar.
But you will always know you're a star, my star.
So sad to see our love is far, so far
Please dont leave me, please dont leave me, please don't leave me, Dont you leave me.

If I could rewind time to when you were my first.
You know i'd erase the time I became your worst.
Please believe in me when i say that I learned.
It was your love, your love, your love, that I always have yearned.

The second part the mysterious stranger I had once fell in love with

Dear Future Me

Listen,
I know this isn't a part of your life you want to remember
So don't.
Don't remember sitting here on this uncomfortable couch
Don't remember the nightsmares or chemistry homework at four in the morning
You don't have to.
But I promise that there will be more crazy school weeks
There will be more restless weekends
And there will be more regrets
Sweetheart, you don't have to regret this.
Wherever you are, you deserve to be there
Whatever decisions you've made, you had to choose
So here you are. Be brilliant. Enjoy it. Please don't think about me anymore.
I am one of your low points. I'm sure you'll have lots of them. So I give you permission.
Bury me.

I wrote journals whil I was in an abusive relationship several years ago. As I read through them, I wrote candid and genuine "notes from future me," as if I could go back, take my own advice and do it differently. So even though I'm having to make hard choices right now, I know that future me will have a different perspective, and she'll be facing new challenges and want some of the big sister advice that she always wishes I could hear for herself. Even if I can't forgive some of the things I've done at this point, she will.
If you could tell yourself something in the past, what would you say?

Behind the Curtain

Cogitating our path,
the many possibilities,
what has been, and yet to be.

Deliberating the actions,
or words that were spoken,
which have set me free.

Eluding the dramatics,
my conscious is aware,
of all that I am, or do.

Analyzing behaviours,
weighed without bias,
seeking what is true.

Discovering that lines,
may be deceiving,
questioning the certain.

Enlightening experiences,
much remains unknown,
hidden behind the curtain.

Rogue.

I want you for the most selfish of reasons.
I should pull away, resist everything about you I find capturing
That what a good person would do...

But I lost my obsession with being a good person a long time ago

It's all about me now... didn't think it would get to this point. I'm thankful God has kept anyone worthy to be loved by me because I'm not right at the moment

Are You On The Right Path ?

You gave me this one of a kind feel
Now I shall show you what's real.
You gave me a breath of fresh air
Now I shall show you the trail where love is really hiding.
B U T
I'm tired of walking the same path
Alone
In the cold
No one offered me a warm jacket I can hold.
B U T ! Guess who got blowned on the same road I faced defeat on ?
I thought I was headed down the wrong
Not knowing this is the path that God has me on
Faced with the struggle and built up with so much pain
I couldn't even see the blessings
Slowly
Building uphill
I just have to keep walking, scratching..
Seeking God faster..
Until I master the way I step on the concrete
I
Will
Become
So
Much
Stronger.

Conscious

We each own something terrible,
But we know it not at all.
It bites at us and fights with us;
Daring us to fall.
The conscious is a fearsome beast—
Says things we hate to hear.
It growls at us and howls at us;
Warning it is near.
