Many say they are searching,
For their soul mate, this time,
A soul mate, would be a soul,
Inside another person, that knew,
The one in you, during a past life,
Not the picture, in your mind.
You would have to break barriers,
Race, age, looks, wealth…
You would know, as soon as you met,
True happiness, total trust, respect, love,
They would, accept you the same, no binds.

Life is about searching,
Looking for new adventures,
Entertaining, our own mind,
Sorting through questions,
Sometimes, answers we may find.
It’s easy, to get lost
As does a needle, in a barn of hay,
Many hours, accomplishing nothing,
Like an actor, without A part in A play,
A simple exciting thought,
Can often stimulate our mind,
A vision, we discover, inside,
Like a bright, flashing sign,
We never know till were finished,
Was it positive, or just wasted time.

I’ve met a lot of people, as I travel, through life this time ,
Searching, for my purpose, mixing the energy in my mind,
There are countless messages, and inspirations, at any moment,
In time, then I search, sort, and mix, to see what I find,
None of us, should plan for a perfect grade, in life this time,
I thank God for this chance to discover, and being so kind.
When my journey in this life ends, the smoke, from,
My cremation, will rise up, like a dark cloud,
Floating towards the sky, and it will fade,
Only then my soul will travel on, more to discover, another stage.
My material possessions, will be left, somewhere they will lay,
My poems/songs, read, learn, share, for now and the future,
Change the world-wide negatives, to positives, harder each day,
In a few short moments, memories of me in this life will fade.

The feeling, when someone we love, drifts away
Like A balloon, Loose floating to the sky,
To A destination, who knows where,
I’ll always have colorful memories,
As I travel alone, and stare.

Everyone has dreams, about their life,
The way they think it should be, many change, you must let them go,
If you do not, you will live the rest of your life, creating and living in misery.
You are in this life to make your soul stronger, any challenge, has some pain,
You can use the tools you have to build, a happier better future,
For you will never be able to go back and create the past again.
Everyone is on a different journey in this life, to be happy, you must learn to forgive,
If you keep thinking of the negatives from your past, you block the door,
And keep positives in your future, from coming in.
Anyone can create excuses, eliminating things they should learn, and enjoy, this time,
Often the path in front of you is like a red carpet, then you make up those lame excuses,
Remember failure, is a part of every one’s life this time, although if you never try,
You live the rest of this life, creating more doubts and confusion in your mind.
In this material world every one has their greed, it seems the first advice all doctor’s give,
Stop drinking, smoking, enjoying life, get all your drugs from me, then you,
Start questioning every minor ach and pain, after your hooked, that’s all you talk,
And think about, your last appointment, and when the next will be, with no guarantee,
Of a longer happier, or healthier life, you will live or ever see.
We each go through many mud puddles during life this time, you can always complain,
About ***** shoes, or clean them, and give those shoes a sparkling shine,
The same works for those, dreams that never materialized, and the negative,
Thoughts you repeat and hold inside over time, for if you do not clean them,
Let them be, the rest of this life,
You will always have a ***** mind.

Almost everyone has a loved one,
You can count on, at any time,
It could be a, sibling, parent, child or partner,
A feeling of security, always in your mind.
I  remember those feelings,
Then they began to fade,
All of my people now, are buried in their graves.
I’ve been asked, are you lonely,
It just becomes a numb feeling, I carry inside,
One thing I know is certain, I’m the next in line to die.
I do not want sympathy, or sit around all day, and cry,
No one said this life, would be easy, always, give it your best try.
You should never waste your time, in this short life,
Have confidence, in yourself, your thoughts, you must rearrange,
Especially on situations you have no means to change.
God gave us this life, we only have this one season,
Never give up discovering your soul, for any reason.

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.
