Are you Gaining or Falling Farther Behind
We were each put in this life, on this planet,
To build our souls inside,
Too be open, explore, always search, so many,
Different life styles, to mix with, as we float,
In the open sky.
We were warned of evil, false prophets, forces,
That will control our life and mind, they,
Keep recruiting, so many, in a very short time.
Everyday their grooming, to keep your thoughts and bodies in fear,
A new war now, attacks the human mind, is the end of mankind near?
After you receive a taste of the evil, most jump in line,
They love repeating the worst cruel stories, many times,
A good person is not allowed one mistake, if they do,
They are labeled, for the rest of their life time.
Positive encouraging stories, are sometimes laughed at,
Or twisted around, like a wild vine,
Even if someone helped them, they claim to be the hero,
Every time, many in this life, think they are so perfect,
Only in their words, for their actions never show any signs.
They may think their fooling everyone, as their personal life,
Falls farther behind.

What is Love…
Feelings, emotions, smiles, and tears,
Someone, you can count on, to be there,
Whenever, life brings you, fears.
A person, who won’t run,
From the unexpected times,
As you share ideas, for future plans,
They will listen, while giving comfort,
Even if, it’s just holding your hand.
You cannot create true love,
As if you were planning a meal,
Shopping, at A mart,
Just looking for a certain, ingredients,
Age, wealth, and looks,
That is trying to create, a situation,
A reason, many relationships,
Fall apart

LOVE is TRUST
Love is so hard to explain,
Hopefully, all involved, are thinking the same,
For many these days, just use the word, as a game,
Causing others, to drop tears, like rain.
To love, you have to, totally trust,
Love does not appear, from hours, of lust,
You have to keep feeding love, to avoid, any rust,
Actions and words, have to match, that’s, a must.

Friends that touch our heart
We use to be close together, shared good times,
Helped each other through, bad weather.
There were few days, you would see us apart,
We had A friendship that connected,
Right from the start.
We could feel each other’s emotions,
As if we shared the same mind,
We would guide each other through, lonely times.
Our last time together, was just A normal day,
Then for reasons unknown, our friendship,
Just drifted away.
Over the years we cross paths, it’s just like the old days,
Then we part again, journey our separate ways.
We all have friends, we hold so close in our mind,
When we think of them,
A feeling of peace, happiness, comes every time.
During this life, most friendships, will drift apart,
We will only have A few, we keep as memories,
Close to our heart.

Back to Dreaming
I had A dream,
I watched,
As it faded away,
My time moves on,
This moment tomorrow,
Will be known, as yesterday.
We should not expect, every thought,
Will become, real and true,
There is only, one thing we can count on,
Ourselves, what we do.
Most dreams, we picture other people too,
Sometimes, it takes longer to realize,
They are not on the same page, as you.
Should I just give up hope, turn away,
Or call it a learning experience,
Back to dreaming, today.

A Soul Travel’s Through Many Life’s
Looking at the future,
Is it cloudy, or clear,
Thinking about the last day,
Is it far, or near.

Everyone’s, soul is searching,
Experiencing different ways,
That’s why were not to judge others,
During this life, stay.

A soul travel’s through many life’s,
Searching for perfection, every day,
Learning from all situations,
That it passes through, along the way.

Questions with no Answers, a Confusing Life this Time
There are strange mystery’s,
All around us in many ways,
Why certain events happen,
And different actors, come,
Into our world, as others fade,
The timing is often perfect,
To help us air out our thoughts,
Questions without answers,
Can lead to confusion, for days.

No one is right, all of the time,
Being wealthy, does not make,
A person more wiser, in their mind,
The words that one person speaks,
Can lead another, to a lost find,
Everyone is on a personal path,
Accept, honest simple things too,
Listen follow positive signs.

This life, just a slice of our journey,
For our soul, which learns, in many ways,
Meet, inter act, with many different cultures,
Sharing, understanding, creates, positive times,
No trust, when money, more important, than people today,
From, wanna be the dictators, buying positions, to fabricated news,
Good ratings, are more important than truth is, for their bottom line.
