#messes
Times seem difficult right now Look in mirror and hate what I see I have faith that if I keep trying I'll start to eventually like being me What doesn't **** makes me stronger I continue building myself every day Growing Learning from my fuckups and messes Fueled by faith in fate that someday I'll finally feel okay

Faith
Maybe in misguided mistakes Messes made, erratic errors, There is beauty hiding to be found A point to all the madness and terrors I want to believe in bigger reasons Tried and failed so many times The blood I've shed and sacrificed Payment for past crimes Every up is shortly followed By an equal down The saying states that what goes Around will come back around Today I celebrate every gain Do not mourn any loss There is meaning to be found In each bump you come across

Meaningful Messes
What a wreck such a mess. Some say This poetry is such a wreck. She shared a beautiful mess. Some say I have no words for this mess. Poetry needed a way to be released of its stress. Other saw her Poems as a awful mess. The village gave poetry such loneliness. Gone and forgotten poetic protest. Some said the Poems were flawless. Others said They couldn't tap the keys for such dialect It's ok curtain will cover, windows will close on Beautiful Mess! s.a.m 2019 protected

Beautiful Mess
The Messes We Leave The Cats You Dump on My Door There’s a black plastic bag sleeping in a tree And an orange cat who treads beneath it, Flinching at The jack-o-lantern grins That the coyotes give As they prowl about at night. Even after we take him inside, He’s often so scared Wide-eyed and meowing Like these new owners will leave him too. There’s a whole litter Gone in scattered bones Except for one who watches from rooftops and trees. He never meows, that one, Never accepts the invitation to come in. There’s a pregnant kitten Barely more than skin, And a white calico Who stares at us with the same cunning eyes That outwitted the wolves other pale cats did not. Those are the handful we tucked away behind these walls, The rest are not so lucky. A pair of siblings who lost the third Two toms who yowl to each other at night, Those are just the handful who survive still out there. Together, they are that small number out of countless dozens Who disappeared under car tires and canine teeth.

The Messes We Leave & The Cats You Dump on My Door
We're just two broken hearted people trying to make it through our messes together.

I began to sing, and scared Mr. King, and sadly the neighbors saw, and I know I'm bad, and a little mad, and sadly the neighbors never saw, that I was watching and kind of stalking, and sadly I saw...

The things the neighbors saw...
You, and your tricks and your toys Running with your bad ideas Like scissors You, and your kicks and your ploys To see what messes you could create for your gallerias. ** Feed me ******* Smoke me down Pour me champagne Evaporate this town ** You're a liar But I need you in my marrow... Yes, now, the notes are gettin' higher The hallways narrow As my brain gets brighter Eyes get wider Life gets lighter As I sip sweet cider I'll look up longer Still connected to Earth's core Body to mind, stronger Watching beauty, on it's hinges swing the door Leaves drip like tears from trees As the clouds paint the sky But still life is full of idiosyncrasies And you still told too many lies
