I see them come
I see them go
Hope fails,
and it fails again, so?

What else to do
but to feel content
with every arrival
there's goodness to attend
to an end

An end
that surely leaves you
utterly lonely, maybe sad
and a bit changed too

Probably scary
that's usually how it goes
these things were never simple
you carry a bunch of "if so's"

Just go
just be you
they'll see
everyone did see you
one day they might know who

Open  the  door,
Kiss  the  sadness  goodbye,
Find  a  new  window,
Let  your  soul  fly.

Get  out  of  your  box,
Fun’s  never  been  fame,
Stretch  out  to  the  world,
Create  your  own  name.

Opportunities  out  there,
So  let  yourself  soar,
There’s  a  whole  world  just  out  there,
Exit now, and  explore.
The happy idea, continued.

Verbalizing out her interests
attracted opportunities.

She planned to play with every insecurity,
learning, growing and blooming
with every opening.

She just had to take a chance
for the possibility.
Event hough she was dubious and stuttering.

But soon there would be rhythm and fluency
and there she would find unity in
a community.

You were born with having nothing,
You will go with having nothing.
Nothing is yours,
Nothing was yours,
Nothing will be yours.
You are here only in TRANSIT.
What you get is what HE wants to give.HE writes your destiny.HE gives you opportunities.The rest is on your Karma and your beliefs.

You
Had I come another time,
I never would have met
You.
I never would have seen
You.
Just one wrong turn of a corner and
You
would never have entered my life.
How strange a thought,
Living a life where I didn’t know
You.
Jo Barber Mar 2018
Maybe. Maybe. Maybe.
Maybe you should leave me alone.
Maybe you should shut the hell up.
Maybe you should stop reminding me of all my missed opportunities,
Missed friendships,
Missed loves,
Missed lives.
Maybe you should stop the judgement,
And just let the smoke float up through the air.
It’ll evaporate there.
I promise. The only one I’m hurting is myself.

YOU WROTE MORE WORDS TODAY
IS IT ABOUT ME? YOU DIDN’T SAY.
I’M QUITE SCARED NOW,
I WANT TO ASK BUT I DONT KNOW HOW.
SO HERE I AM WRITING TO YOU,
ASKING FOR JUST ONE CLUE.
COULD IT BE?
YOUR WORDS ABOUT ME?
I DON’T WANT TO FALL SO FAST
BECAUSE I WOULD LOVE FOR THIS TO LAST.
DO NOT BE SCARED TO SHOW ME YOUR HEART
I ALREADY KNOW YOUR MIND IS ART.
I AM AWARE THIS WILL BE HARD,
AND I KNOW THIS CAUGHT YOU OFF GUARD.
BUT IF THIS WORKS IT COULD BE FUN,
MAYBE TWO CAN BECOME ONE.

NOW I KNOW YOU SEE
ME.
THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME KNOW.
MY HEART NEARLY POPPED WHEN
I READ YOUR LATEST WORK.
I DIDN’T THINK YOU’D REALIZE
I WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT YOU.
SODA IS NOT A DEAL BREAKER,
I LOVE SODA TOO.
BLACK COUNTS AS A COLOR,
IT’S MY FAVORITE.
THIS IS MY INVITATION TO TALK,
I HOPE YOU’LL TAKE IT.

Being bored,
meaning you either aren't doing anything,
have to wait
or did your task for too long.

I am waiting,
but aren't we all in life?
One person may be waiting for the bus,
the other for a cure.
Next one may wait for their first kiss,
first love and last?

Others wait their entire life for happiness
and die in regret.
Even though they have happiness right introns of their eyes,
they are blind.
Why you may ask?

They wait for bigger and bigger opportunities
and they never come.
They fight, they loose, they fail
Fail to see what is really important and right infant of them.

That they have food to eat, healthy children.
The sun blesses every morning each person
And what do they do? They ignore

We are all waiting in life for something,
but make that something worthwhile.
