Euphrosyne Mar 2020
You don't need to be in a hurry
Don't forget this is your journey
Close them eyes and don't you worry
Your time will be peacefully coming.

If you didn't feel no rain
Then you wouldn't get no rain-bows
And if you didn't feel that way
Then you'll still stay the same.

The rain make your feelings so cold
But if you never got rained
And the experiences that you got
would have never been told
Would have never been brought
Would have never been bold.

If you didn't get that rain
Then you wouldn't have got this rainbows
I'm happy that you felt that way
Because if you didn't, you would stay the same.

This is still a journey
That you don't need to hurry
So do not worry
This journey will be worthy.
For the pips that always experiencing rains do not worry you'll get yourself your own rainbow.

You're more than a dime
Come lets make our time
Feel this love anytime,
What are you waiting for?

Breathe, feel how much we should
Talk and take a walk around our neighborhood
Feel blessed but don't get stretched
You gotta get that sun on our sunday best.

Get up, don't be lazy our day maybe wasted
Everything might be challenging but I know we're tested,
Come on get up lets be positive
Leave those on your bed all of the negatives.

If you're hurting I know a remedy
Get up and I'll give you my exciting energy
And forget that hurting memories, let it be
And say you're worth it and tell them "this is all of me".

Just slowly open your eyes
Come right in, take off your saddest disguise
Leave your worries right at your door
Watch them as they drop at the floor.

What are you waiting for?
Come on get up lets be positive
Leave those on your bed, all of the negatives,
It's worth a dime
To take your time.
For the pips that been down lately be positive there's some people who loves you and depends on you.

Dear brain,
Can you stop telling me
All the things I've done wrong?
I know I'm not perfect

Can you instead
Tell me all the things
I've done right?
I could use some positivity

Thank you,
Me

Play me a sad song?
But what of this joyous day
Summer unfurls before us
And warm sunshine tans my skin

Sure we toil in trenches
Dug as defensive lines
Against a swarm
So complete in its hostility

But brothers, hear the sounds of nature
Echoing around us
Wrapping us in soft cacoons
Of sweet distraction

So do not sing a sad song
Don't dampen my ephemeral mood
Let me have this moment of reprieve
As I dig trenches
On a future battlefield
This poem was written in Afghanistan in 2010.  It is the only positive piece I have written from the portion of my life.  And those of you who've read my other poems about war probably know that very well.  It was just a strange day as summer began and we were in our short sleeve shirts building defensive barriers, surrounded by towering mountains.  It was such a beautiful sight.  It made me think about working in the yard with my dad and the feeling of bonding and accomplishment at a day's toil.

Back yourself.
In.
All that you do.
Put yourself.
Up.
For steep, lofty climbs.
Take yourself.
Out.
Of dark, negative equations.
Let yourself.
Down.
Gently, from tall orders.

We don't talk about that. What's done is done.
Andy Hewitt Feb 2020
Obstacles can be found.
Here. And there.
Or all around?
But, however,
With one's might,
You may cast them
From your sight.

I am whole.

My worth
is not constructed
from the love he gave me,
or took away.

I am whole,
based off of
what I give
to the world.

I am whole,
with
or without
him.

Optimism,
     hopelessness' necessary delusion, and
Positivity,
     a fierce front confronting unbearable reality;
Darkness' depths,
     a shield from light's searching searing heat, and
Rather a slave
     to one's own wits and strength, than to truth.
