"ammends" poems
A duo as diverse as can be found anywhere but, once we were together, full of stories to share Laughter and hardship made us both who we are And now, to find those two people, is like roping a star Baseball and cub scouts, standing in as your dad These were some of the best times that I ever had I wait for the doorbell, hoping that's where you'll stand And that the burdens developed are gone with your hand Two hard headed old mules, As stubborn as the other We've lost years of our past And missed times as a brother Two hard headed old mules Growing old with regret Both resistant to change And ..what we'll never get We'd stand with each other in times all gone by We don't know how to fix this, but, someone should try We're both so much older and wiser by now This needs to be fixed up, but neither knows how Years of missed laughter and growing as friends Is extended each day, and we should make ammends Our lives are much different, that much we know But, we still sons and both brothers, with time left to go Two hard headed old mules, As stubborn as the other We've lost years of our past And missed times as a brother Two hard headed old mules Growing old with regret Both resistant to change And...what we'll never get I wait for the doorbell, and know it's not you I'm not sure if I found you, just what I would do The sins of the father, should be put to rest For our years full of laughter were some of the best Fishing, and talking, sharing each others dreams Have been wiped from our minds, at least that's how it seems We'll always be brothers, right now just in name We're just stubborn old mules, still playing the game Two hard headed old mules, As stubborn as the other We've lost years of our past And missed times as a brother Two hard headed old mules Growing old with regret Both resistant to change And... we're not done yet!!

Stubborn Old Mules

My thoughts lay 'neath the moonlight shine, Yet the abyss still dark and silent, The stars hung within the nightly heavens, Whisper "Shall thou make ammends?" I sang a song, She danced upon it, I did her wrong, Her graces forgave it, but she can't forget, so she went on her way, oh how much I regret, now I'm left here in despair. This is how I feel, all that I've shared, thoughts dark enough to **** written and told so I would be spared.

Forsaken Apology
I'm not heartless or jaded or broken Though I have been rejected a few times before I'm still complex but I'm working on it And all that matters is not what I've done, but what I'm doing to be better than yesterday I'm not exactly where I wish to be just yet I am still sensitive and protective and I admit I have doubts I don't say sorry as much as I should, but I have my way of making ammends I'm not lost or searching or impulsive and weak I'm curious and interested in expanding my horizons My imagination takes me everywhere and sometime I don't want to come back But I still try my best to improve what I do have I do what I can and when I fail it's a lesson If I didn't do my best, I'll take a look at what went wrong I'm a hopeless romantic and a dreamer in the process of making use of my life and all my potential I can be funny, sarcastic and niave all at once But there are times when I'm serious and all I want is respect I earned what I have and threw away many oppurtunities But thats the beauty of life whether I like it or not I forgive easily and remember most things Especially what it feels like to be hurt and left alone I enjoy what life brings me and I've learned that I'm capable I've found my voice and I'm not afraid to be singled out My head holds a crown that might be too heavy But all my burdens are mistakes that paved a path towards my successes I was a girl but now I am a woman And to be honest, I love who I've become Some people like me, some may be critical But the only opinion that matters, is the one in the mirror I like to laugh, I like to share, I like to listen to my friends But most importantly I love to smile, even when it's difficult and everything is falling apart Because in the midst of rainstorm always comes a rainbow Soon after any day now, the sun will shine on my destiny And the puzzle of life will still make no sense at all

If love is what you're looking for, I've got the magic potion; It starts with trust and discipline, then ends with full devotion! It comes with lending all your time, just giving up yourself; To show the one who means the most, their love means more than wealth! You must forgive each other's wrongs, don't live in times gone past; You've got to focus on today, for ANY love to last! Now show her that a passion burns, for her inside your heart; Romance her with your love each day, a love to never part! Don't ever leave her when you're mad, not one foot out that door; Until you've made ammends with her, don't ever leave her sore! Now spend some time in prayer each day, get on your knees with God; Then hand in hand together walk, the road not often trod! You take to heart these words I say, to make a simple plan, In love you'll be a Hercules- to her, a Superman!!

"Love's Hercules"
This bucket of mine Has become a curse I add to the pile And it adds a verse I keep it hidden And tucked away But its made apparent Each and every day I add to this bucket And the weight piles on This facade grows heavy Tearing down my con I fill this bucket Up to the top And when its full It proceeds to pop I cry and I scream As I make ammends This bucket of mine That I cant show to my friends I've grown up now But my bucket has not It wears its cracks From the battles I've fought

This Bucket of Mine
Let the wind blow of life branches dancing with the breeze The sun shining rays of light truth of this moment is here Flowing through me and out of me there is nowhere to hide My eyes wide open present to and witness of the miracle of now The gift of life to wake and see beauty not darkness of conditioning To heal the inner demons with conscious awareness and acceptance Humbly face the truth and make ammends let go and forgive myself and others I see now not what I use to see what the inner demons see; filter of the past and pain But light in every situation teacher in all people reflection of myself in relationship Love in every moment It's not all dancing clouds and fairy tales, it takes hard work and dedication To see the truth of what I am is tough at times but worth it As I am freer now than ever before, a life of gratitude and acceptance The mind takes over at times, yes, sometimes an hour a week a month But eventually I let go because I know to let go is to love ❤️

Gratitude
Sorry but I don't need you here I want to be alone All I need is my Mollie dog laying by my side Its not my intention being rude nor ever to offend Its just that on the mountain side I can make my ammends You see its here that I can sit and think here that I can write Sorry its not my intention to push you out of sight Dear friends I find I need to be on a cliff above the raging sea I find no inspiration in your mindless words I can only write of what nature inspires

Solitude
Sometimes I like to go to sleep and in my garden private reap incorporeal and silent friends no need for hurts or make-ammends When waking into nightmares cold could I be forward or so bold to stay right here a moment more this peaceful place my mind explore I am not missed my friends aren't real my pain and sorrow they won't feel they tell me how so much they care with hollow vacant bitter air When nothing in my mind is real what can hurt me,  what can I feel we medicate to numb our pain Why then are my holistics vain Sometimes I like to go to sleep as haunting thoughts upon me creep their icy fingers slip away left behind in yesterday

Holistic Dreams
Lift the Weight off your shoulders Make ammends With your mistakes Today is the start Of a brand new day And I plan on taking Your breath away Live life To its' fullest Don't surrender To your fear Because fear is The devil in disguise All he wants Is to make you cry Let God Open the gates of your heart Because this Is a brand new start

Devil in Disguise
I want to be lost and waste the day laughing I want to dive into the silky river Clothes ashore and bodies splashing Crashing into a body of quicksilver In as much as an hour or a lifetime Trek across the map with friends In a place or time, in a realm or rhyme Allowing our souls to make ammends ©Copyright 2014 Written and Edited by Racquel Davis

Eau d' Parfum
For today I shall pretend, No matter what the truth ammends. Today I will go climbing towers, Spending all my loving hours. I care not why he came, He was there just the same. I had him there, by my side, And oh! Our forces did collide Shifting did they mingle-mix, Laughing hearty, turning tricks. And looking on me his eyes did smile, Even for a little while. I smiled too, returned his gaze Pondering his every phrase. He was brilliant, his music bright, It shone in me a consuming light. I live on in his embrace, Remembering his loving face, The way held out his arms for me, They way that anchor set me free. It is true, that his return May not have been the result of burn, But for today, I shall think it so Postpone the reality I hate to know.

Reality, I hate to know.
It's funny how something so simple like a high school  heartbreak can hold such a dark grudge on your heart. All these poems and all my cries. My venting and worrying all gone. My life feels so much lighter. Happier. You dont notice that your being held back until your finally released. One message. One message, changed this all. I put my ego to the side and talked to you first. After months of unanswered calls. We made ammends. I can breath without worrying what I intake. You don't realize you need peace until it reaches you outside of your nightmares. Peace, it's the only thing holding you back from reaching beyond your state of mind.

"Love's Hercules"
Blackened heart that longed too long charred to coal in smoking flesh make ammends within this song and cease the mind of this unrest. To these weights do not cling more the rusting chains that held you back the sinking bonds beneath your pores that made your feeling sadly lack.

Charred
How potent the poison is passion A War in good fashion The fog in the fields crash like waves that are massive A passive polite the old man with the pipe but stills draws out his knife in the evening gun fight then explodes into flowers and casket The light is too bright just to bask in And tonight may be right for the captain But i my dear friends are not fit for ammends i am neither the start or the finish All must once end  like the rope and the pen and the pipe i just finished beginning

My childhood idols have all come and gone But you I remember like you were a song No matter how very hard I try I can't comprehend why you didn't say 'goodbye ' How hard could it have been To just make ammends But then you wanted to just be facebook friends                                         A few hours away yet ten years apart How could that not hurt your heart? It damaged mine, as you can see Don't you ever, EVER almost miss me? As much as I miss you I just can not say I love you like I did, back in the day

A heart and mind, so numb and frigid, A love of darkness and desolation so rigid. A past torn and disrupted, A future ravaged and corrupted. All that remains is a shadow... No family, no friends, Nor a chance to make ammends. Every breath, an icy breeze, Every word, unheard pleas. All that remains is a shadow... The world, an empty shell, A silent curse, a lonely hell, With vacant eyes, so crude, so vile, And hatred that grows in the evil exile. All that remains is a shadow...

Shadows(Pt. 2)
There's something so very liberating and soul-satisfying about redemption A chance to make ammends A chance to eliminate the ghosts of the past Life doesn't give you a lot of those So whenever you get one Make full use of it

Untitled 221
You draw conclusions on your own time I'm fit for the shoes I wear at night and when you see me in your own mind You know what I said must have been right. I have petted to many friends into corners To many breaks to make ammends Sell me my own ideas for quarters. And why would I eat It all up. They done it once again and again and again. Service never was required by those who said they want me hired. They all know Im really to tired SO get off of my back. Why have we given in to this completely embarrasing totally outdated way of living, I dont know, I will never know.

A for Original
Burn the canvas and lose the attire Just learn from this don’t choose the squire I’ve lived rich and I’ve lived poor Laid in a ditch and saw the end so near Thrown out and cast away Starving yet drunk lead astray Good “friends” and good places Make ammends and fake chases Looking for redemption or a spot of glory Searching for salvation in a place not holy A voice burnt like the scars of time A choice you learned yet far behind Apologize and sleep it off Wake up to realize you’re alone and scoffed 3 years and yet still alone No more tears you’ve done all you’ve shown Can’t take back the things that happened Can’t fix the the rings that cracked and Still here you are Awake 3 am writing in the car Missing them and knowing they are gone Wishing them the best knowing you might not see dawn But none the less you go on Rambling and talking Just wishing the life wasn’t the picture you’ve drawn

writing feels... (lacking of awareness)
Words were said But they weren't meant They were make believe And more than a little bent Bedroom eyes Silly smiles, kissing lips Tangled limbs And bare skin beneath fingertips Rapid heartbeats Butterflies when we're near How can you miss me When I'm standing right here? I've never been so comfortable Never felt so close Never wanted to be around someone Or minded being exposed Talking came easy We were best friends Fights always resolved Communication to make ammends Words went unspoken Things started to go wrong Feelings remained hidden For far too long What was whole Now is broken What was warm Now seems frozen We meant the world To each other But none of that matters If he longs for another Reaching out But his back is turned I call out, scream But he seems unconcerned None of what we had Seems to matter anymore Stop holding on. Try to close the door. Try to move on, Hold your head high Stifle the hurt, Don't let them see you cry...

Frayed Strings...
Let's make ammends, under the covers, underwater, on the sand. Go outside and hold hands, kiss, hug and pretend, like we have hope again. Let's... come on, let's make ammends, until we figure out where I start and you end.

Eternal Instead
I carry with me a light of hope for a better tomorrow but that tomorrow never comes I cannot stand lying to myself Yet I cannot watch myself become this weak There arises a war within oneself; At one moment a wish for something otherworldly and another the indifference Put to a halt whatever it is that you think you can do; make ammends and become at peace with your inability to feel whole There is a hole an insatiable void inside your mortal body Minutes ticking by you no longer are young and filled with hope
