After all the tears,
the painful heartaches.
The reluctancies,
and the stress we've made.

After all we've been through,
mostly all the bad.
I'm thankfull for all of this,
all the fun we had.

And when I look back,
and I remember even the fights.
The times we said goodbye,
the tears I cried at night.

I'm thankfull for it all,
because it helped me so much.
To be stronger on my own,
to kick away that crutch.

To stand alone myself,
and be proud of who I am.
Alone with someone,
to always help me stand.

My biggest fear has been,
to always stand alone.
But I'm not so afraid now,
to be on my very own.

After all we've been through,
and will go through later I'm sure.
You have been my heartache,
but have also been my cure.

You've helped me be stronger,
and it took me till now to know.
That I'm thankfull for us,
even if I don't show.

So here's my chance to say,
I'm thankfull for you in my life.
When we're all smiling,
and even through the strife.

Thank you for who you are,
and everything you do.
Most importantly though,
thanks for being you.
This week we were talking about what we were thankful for at The House Of Shalom. I was thinking in my mind, I'm thankful for him. Even if we fight, even if we're mad at eachother, he helped bring out the best in me. He helped bring out the fighter and the believer and the one who can stand on her own. I'm thankful to have had him in my life, even if he was just one of those people who walked in to teach me a lesson and just had to walk out again. He was there for a reason, and I've come to realize that reason. I just wanted to express that to everyone. <3 Happy Thanksgiving (however you spell it)
A few little white rocks,
Stuck in our tires.
A couple old beer cans
Turning black in the fire.
We live our lives simple and free.
Raised to say grace.
And trust me,
we believe.

We clear our thoughts,  
Down old dirt roads.  
Always coming home
Before momma's supper got cold.
We respect our elders
We fight for family.
If you mess with my  kin,
You're messing with me.

"Living in sin is a sure ticket to hell"
Momma would say,
With her Bible in hand
Scolding us well.
We listened carefully
As she spoke of God
Learning about worship
And the price of his blood.

Our parents raised us knowing
The consequence of sin.
There's a price we must pay
For our evil ways in the end.
So we continue living life
The way we were raised.
As Southern Christians,
Remaining thankfull to Him
For each passing day.

From all the things that might go wrong,
all the cheating or the
it just doesn't feel the same's.
With every cry and fight and awkward silence,
every fakes ******,
every what the **** is wrong with you.
Every why did you,
what did she,
how could you.
For every fall and break and end,
I am thankfull that it's you.

I should be happy but I am not
I should be smiling but instead im crying

I feel all alone in the world and no one will ever understand
and I know you will tell me you do understand me
and that you are there for me and that you think im everything
well sorry my love but I cant be your everything
when I feel like nothing

maybe it is the right time for the demons to come and get me
we always had this great connection to be honest
I would tell them my sad stories, I would cry
and he promised me to always make me feel better
he promised me to never leave my side and I think he never did
he is just on a trip to see the world but he will come back
and maybe he will bring me something or maybe not
I dont really care to be honest, I just miss him.

dear prince of the hell
I dont know where you are in the world
but please come back to me because I need you
or do you hate me.. did I do something wrong
is that why you are leaving the scars and marks on my body
I never told your secret and you always kept mine
even if you are never coming back..
I will always love you and be thankfull for the things you did
but please keep protecting me..

I miss having you in my room.
sorry for sharing this.

This day brings too many memories
too many reasons to cry
but you wouldnt know anything
by looking me in the eye
part of me is happy
that you're not in my life
but the other part is saddened
along with feelings of sorrow and of strife
I have met someone worth my time
his love is true and sincere
no longer do I wait for you
he's helped my conquer my worst fear
though he's nothing like you
but that I do not mind
he's funny, good looking, nice
he gets me and he's kind

this day brings me sadness
yet it also brings me hope
thankfull I'm not stuck on you
and that I havent a reason to mope
I'll keep our memories in my head
but push them out of my heart
with this day comes an ending
and an even better start
I do a lot of reflecting today
just thinking on the past
and to be honest, the time I've wasted on you
makes me start to laugh
I couldnt seem to shake
the feelings I had for you
I convinced myself you were perfect
that your feelings, though hidden, were true

realizing you were fake
was the hardest thing I've done
but now I've conquered my feelings
and I feel like I have won
I was too young and too foolish
looking for love too soon
you were fresh out of love
wondering if again you could swoon
well you had my heart for three years
now it's time to face the facts

you've played with my emotions
and put on a splendid act
you mean nothing to me now
if stated would be a lie
I'm done trying to get to you
I don't want anymore reasons to cry
that was something you were always good at
and very frequently did
so lets face the truth
I'm mature and you are still a kid
goodbye my almost lover
I hope your life is fun
I cant say I enjoyed the heartache
but at least now it's done

silence the everlasting
fire, and the thirst of
your skin,  well satisfed.


never doubtfull,  your eyes
shine of placer, desire, and
complete satisfaction.

humdty in my pelvis, the
silky and sour shine, in the
lap of this gratefull  and loved
lion.

and for a minute,
just in that moment, im
complete, serene, loved, wanted,
a full beast, serened and thankfull

the sorrow, the pain, and fouling acts,
and the brutal theft, are just bumps,
overcomed, erased with the humidity
of your ***.

doubtfull is the one, that  
has not loved, her lie is a heavy
cross, dark, fatal, deadly, her soul
will never love beneath the divine
phalus.

in return, your eyes, truth,
love and venture, loving an
impossible, but loving even so,
stertores of your  loved and
kissed ******.

penetrated, softly and ferouciously,
are the echo of the fire, crashing the
sea, making life, steam, watering the
earth, generating the trofhic cicle,
of life, fire and water, steam of life,
passion between two beasts,
beautiful and loved.

your honney and your
desire, WILD, intense,
evergreene,  are vitals,
for a beast of montecristo,

that just drags, harm and pain,
of betrayal, every cut, every  scratch,
every stabing, made of me, the strong man
that y am.

unbreakcable, and living, loving impossibles
destroying the lies, ending the weakness
of  layars, full of hate,  and envy,
for losing  that, holding our
lives.

after that, and for their weakness
montecristo is the winner, a beast
with a heart, learning to love, the possible
and the impossible, to dissapear in the other,
rapped in her ligth, and her beauty,


the evil and weak of the mondego girls,
only speed up, their catastrophy,
y stand alone before their mistakes, and their
lies and anathems, turn against them,
truth clean the waters, and the fire make the
steam, that generates life, makng a full cicle.

so, threw desire, and mutual passion,
impossible happens, in the name of life,
and love, the desire quimera, could never erase
the time we touch, dispise the difference
full and wild.

generating steam, making life,
roaring, *******, groaning, and
in my mind and in yours, the same
desire, the overwelming truth, our truth,
and the incompresible lie, vain, the
echoes of the false, and ther infectious lies,
corrupting wath was always life.

the false notion of love, and their
acomplisses, with her conning, and the
not aceptacion, vain or insane,
dark, crazy and
incomplte.
this one's for the ladies. is not the engine is the choices, just that and aceptation , ] all mi love for the ones with aceptation and a clean heart.[

i love when wind kisses my cheeks
today,when i walk along the grasses
where dew drops are paved,and
shines bright as my delight inside
i love the way where butterflies welcome me,..

for the feast in their garden
but,never as delicious as that feeling
which now rules my heart
when ever i look around
i can see everything reflected
with my own gracefullness

i have no wordsto explain
what i feel now,when
i'm on the peak
i saw dry leaves shed down,&
rising sweet flowers of BLISS
blooming everywhere on my way;of life

i'm chilled and charmed
when i got the first drop,
of this rain,in my streched hands.
waves in my heart are beyond everything
& at it's extreme freequency

god had blessed me with his,
smiling rays of light.
i'm happy and thankfull
for everything i ever had....

As far as the life goes on We get tormented in many dreams and fortunes.

We get lost in many uncertain things and then get back in ourself. Every aspect is claiming and is covering the very true value of the way we are.

True dislikes is the only hating for the sense that people make nowdays, handling many uncertain things and thoughts is quite high nowdays, getting lost in every realm is magic ,shadows high or the demons inside is burried inside the lost of us.

Someone truly said this point, backway when we were kid is the only way to get the back of the way we were suppose to or our happiness that is enchanted some times before in our life

Still we are growing up and forgetting that past.The back way of our parents help, Happy reasons of those friends and those pillow fights with our crazy cousins, time is moving on but our feelings for these reasons should never be lost.

Right is always wrong nowdays and if we consider left it makes always false choice. Just as the journey has started out and the time is moving on

Our reasons for every thing should remain constant and in a positive manner. Stay high and be thankfull for the reasons of happiness.
At, Some point we feel this
It feels so good to work hard.
To earn the **** i deserve.
It feels so good to get up,
Get some work done,
And come home rightfully tired.
It feels so good
To use my hands to create, to build
It feels good to get frusterated,
And think of different ways to get the job done.
It feels good to do a **** good job
And earn that pride.
It feels good
To use that power drill,
Use a pack of zip ties
And hammer nails in.
It may seem little,
But i am **** thankfull
To have place
*where i am finally wanted
And needed
A fire crackles , outside a Forest thick with snow .
a warm glow flickers in his cabin ,
While ox and *** hang on hooks above .
A store house filled with gold and silver ,
a barn house filled with grain .
No need to tear the. Sheaves that matter, fill your. Cup , drink in vain.
Drink to your store house filled with silver
Drink to your store house filled with gold ,
For you have built your own tomorrow
With no need for man or God .
Oh man when you awaken sharpen your sword
Heat up your fires , take iron from burning Cole
. Bend and shape it into a graven image ,
Until it casts a God shaped hole .
Yet in time you will forget your maker ,
The one who gave you air to breath .
The one who gave you life oh mortal ,
To be thankfull for your years .
Oh man of wooden store house ,
oh man of gold and rust ,
For your god will be forgotten
And my God will turn your gold to dust .
For your heart like stone will be shattered ,
Nothing of your store house left .
When your dying days are numbered ,
God calls you to his throne ,
When judgement day is calling ,
With no where to call your home
Isiah ch 44 God Bless X

You ask me,
how can you be happy and sad?
Or Joyful and mad?
All at the same time

It’s pretty easy, I say,
Easy as seeing my parents
In the screen everyday
for my city I fled
and I don't get to hug them

But they're fine, you see
and that makes me happy
and my friends live their lives
as well as I live mine
and their news make me smile
make me joyful and then perhaps mad
for I wish I could be there
and I know that can't happen

So, yeah perhaps I'm mad
cause I have no future in my land
but I'm happy where I am
and the contradiction starts
So, I'll make peace with my mind
let my feelings aside
I'll be thankfull for what I got
and shut everything aside
Random Thoughts
Bluebird Dec 2014
she wished she was taller,
her hair was coloured red
if you put the plate up there
you could eat right of her head.
she decicded to be silly
so she made me help her grow
as she couldn't do it physicly
she said she will explore:
She wanted to be smarter
so i gave her some books
but in stead of becoming scientist
she became a cook.
she wanted to be a pilot
i made her a plain
she made hole in a cloud
so it started to rain.
she wanted to be a singer
i gave her a verse
she couldnt sing well
it sounded like curse
she blamed it all on me
for not being taller
excuse me miss,
but just be thankfull
that you're not even smaller

Reach for raindrops when the sky is blue.
So that when rain comes you've already said hello and you can stand aside and allow it fall unto what needs to grow.

Simple as it confuses most as does the simple act of introducing yourself to passing strangers.

Fearless interactions and excepting simple verbal transactions  with thankfull compassion is powerful  

A hand shake a bow or verbal transaction of a greeting, along with a relinquishing of titles and wishings of happy travels

For no reason other than to make strangers, named beings that in that one moment we know who were seeing.

A lessoning of fear and a knowledge of what was before speculation and uncertainty

Has now become an understanding and an exchangeing of knowledge to lead to an acceptance and an equality without judgment or an  irrational miss understanding  of other people's actions

Introduce yourself to someone you fear and share with them  simple truths of your person  

Don't judge them for what they believe or what they look to achieve, accept and learn from them what you didn't know before and wouldn't know if you didn't allow them to speak

Around the world if we could all introduce ourselves and have respect in what chose to speak .... wars would be pointless knowledge would come from the mouths of those we meet and our neighbors would be our friends and teachers  in every subject.

Word of mouth would hold power and languages would compound into 1 tung spoken by people to pass knowledge without barriers of who could understand them

Unity would be true and currency would burn and Melt at the new exchange of ideas, stories and facts,

Our hands would help others and in return thier hands would do the same.

People would have a place to live, let live, build and learn  every possibility of what they can belive in and practice.

Spread your name without reason and knowledge without being asked or needed.

Maby one day peace will grip earth and we can all teach learn and help one another without barriers and do so happily just to convers and learn new things, pointless thing but knowledge of every thing from every perspective and every human being
Do i ever find myself
Living a life
That isnt real?
Being in a world
Thats only surreal?
Dreaming a day
That wont ever be
Longing for something
I cant ever see?
Hope seems so
Far from reach
Today becomes tomorrow
Yet i am not free.
Yesterday seems better
Gone and redeemed
Bringing me only
More sorrow than glee-
And this is true
Im not living realy
Im longing and waiting
For deaths release:
From the live
Im not living
To the live
That wont be
Do i ever find
Living becomes survival
Indeed?
Dont tell me
Be thankfull!
You live in paradise!!!
When i am not living
Inside i have strife-
For something else
A world and a "being"
Thats always surreal
Do i find myself living
Life thats unreal???

In honesty spoken
Im not indeed
For the moment
Thats "being"
Defys me- succeed,
Im wasted and broken
And hopeless unspoken
Living for noting
Im living
Indeed,
And Life becomes
Unreal
And LIFE INDEED...
Sometìmes living isnt easy.when you face that reality never includes your dreams...you might wonder what is the point in living??to be blessed with living life thats surreal leaves you in shock:thats called LIFE indeed.

I'm wondering, will I ever find my other halve? It's not an easy thing.
Someone who fittsw so well, like a hand in a glove. You always hope
for the perfect love. You have learned to live alone and you are getting
used to it. But the most beautiful thing is being together with someone.
Like two butterflies tasting the sweetness of life together. Walking the
path of life together. And never leave the other. Two souls filled with
love and brightness, thankfull that they found each other.
Yes, I hope it's going to worlk out that way. But I'm thankfull for the live
that's given to me and that I can do the things that I like to do.

I hope to find someone one day. Ain't we all longing for love.
I thank the heaven above. Something that lives out there, for the
protection that I get. And for all the love that I felt around me.
It feels like a priveledge that I experience it this way. Feeling a good
energy that's surrounding me. I have a good hope for the future, that
I can work on my goals. Finding my luck in the little things that can
make life so beautiful. Living in the here and now and not at the past.
And looking out for the future. The feeling that the best part of your life still has to come, and you can feel the exitement inside of you. Finding real love, a love that's meant to be. Together forever, me and you, a love that's true.

im having a breakthrough
after having a breakdown
its overwhelming being crowded by loud thoughts
in a distracted world that only intensifies insanity
im not crazy,  or maybe i am
i go through this back and forth with myself constantly
and the one voice i wasn't listening to was me
the true purpose in life is to be happy, but are you?
ah, the one question you never seem to have a qualm about
but you have to trick the mind until you actually manifest your reality
so ill say im thankful to being able to feel, see, taste, hear and speak love
im thankful for having the capability to love
im thankfull i am loved
and if thats what needs to be understood to be content
then this is my daily affirmation for love
i mean life
A little angel in Heaven above
Asked the Lord God Almighty
Pray tell:What is love??

God sat the little angel down
And draw him near
"Love is the offering
Of one's own life"

Thought the little angel in silence
And turned to the Lord
"What i am i will give
But say,
Is there more?

"Its is the total surrender
Its giving all your heart
Its the biggest of gifts
If you dare it to part
And its obedience to Love
Never questioning why
Its the promise of Life eternal
When your will will but die"

Stood up the little angel
And walked from the Lord
Will i ever be able
To fulfill this at all?

Said God to him
"Youve already done much
You love in return
You cannot do more"

So the little angel
Touched to the core
Went on his own way
Like so many days before

"Fòr Love is obedient
It is thankfull
Its All
If fulfilled in a life
Its the whole of
Gods Law"
///💜///
Love is a decided act
Its is never forced
Let go ....
It takes time but its worth it
Everything works out
Death is the embrace into loves eternal presence for success is choosing happiness and having a thankfull heart...

— The End —
