To my frustration
I had a realization
That my mood can change fast
The inconvenience seems to last
Something so small but aggravating
Can throw me off when I'm concentrating
Then I feel very defeated
Like my energy is depleted
Everything seems to go wrong
While my sanity says "so long"
So I bid this terrible day adieu
Hoping tomorrow I can start anew
I had a realization
That my mood can change fast
The inconvenience seems to last
Something so small but aggravating
Can throw me off when I'm concentrating
Then I feel very defeated
Like my energy is depleted
Everything seems to go wrong
While my sanity says "so long"
So I bid this terrible day adieu
Hoping tomorrow I can start anew

A Little Levity and more
Painting by numbers always started with one, when I got to you I knew I was done
....screech.....stop right there...... remember I told you stop the cheesy rhyme...no you didn't...well I meant to
Humour has a way about things
lifting weights off our troubles
even if only for a moment in time
a relief, a comfort to alleviate pain
it borders on lunacy, I'm clearly insane
Man helping man in an hour of need
throwing fear to the wayside as well as his greed
Don't ever give up hope
as she sits on a shelf way up high ...

Will
Is it worth it,
Worth it all,
Daily,
Etc
Life
The devil's in the detail,
And detail rule my mind,
Breath, meditate, westernised as mindfulness,
Like alcoholic, retard, old words some remain,
Find your middle amongst new words for pain,
Borders, war, Muslim and hate,
White, power,
Terrorist, oh give over love.. The ones speaking and shaming are shame on themselves.
Trust your heart.
It's the last thing you say goodbye to,
That final goodbye,
But know your soul,
One split end needs conditioning, ...

Feathers!
Give me advice!
I dont know what to do
I wanna dance
Buts it's a Wednesday, too
I live in the boonies
Away from any life
And I could dance alone
But I want a crowd tonight
To celebrate something
I dont know what
A weight has been lifted
I'm so light without this soot
Ha
See, I'm even playing with words!
Im back, baby, so forget what you heard!
I dont know what to do
I wanna dance
Buts it's a Wednesday, too
I live in the boonies
Away from any life
And I could dance alone
But I want a crowd tonight
To celebrate something
I dont know what
A weight has been lifted
I'm so light without this soot
Ha
See, I'm even playing with words!
Im back, baby, so forget what you heard!

Untitled 3/11/19
I'm trying so hard
To not shut everyone out
I'm hurting
No one cares
I'm dealing with it on my own
Since everyone left me
I'm sick
Of crying every night
I'm going to move on
And think about me, not you
I'm okay
Or at least I will be
To not shut everyone out
I'm hurting
No one cares
I'm dealing with it on my own
Since everyone left me
I'm sick
Of crying every night
I'm going to move on
And think about me, not you
I'm okay
Or at least I will be

Bleeding Contradiction
I dream through filters
Of a place unobstructed by a fear of losing
Satisfied and contented to know
The reason
Staging life to find my fit
Significance and belonging
Misplaced love for what I see
Every gift invested in the art
Bleeding contradicting pigments
My gallery
Of freedom and captivity
Self-exalting wasted efforts
All I say in honesty, fades away
Until the day I become my confession
Calibrating life into...
Of a place unobstructed by a fear of losing
Satisfied and contented to know
The reason
Staging life to find my fit
Significance and belonging
Misplaced love for what I see
Every gift invested in the art
Bleeding contradicting pigments
My gallery
Of freedom and captivity
Self-exalting wasted efforts
All I say in honesty, fades away
Until the day I become my confession

Surrounded
Feeling surrounded
Should I start worrying
That my wagons are not circled
See the arrows flying past
Maybe it’s time to get my head down
Up ward and forward through the crowd
It’s like rowing against rapids
Every effort I make Is tiring
Pushed and battered
By the waves of nameless faces
Throw me a lifeline
Anything that will pull me out
Before things get too crazy
Is there something wrong with me
Just want to stand and scream
How do you make it stop
Feeling possessed by a foreign...

Sparks
Tiny sparks jump
Little daredevils
Passing messages
Through broken connections
It’s not quiet
In this electrical storm
Swimming in too much information
Levels are amplified
No filter to slow it down

Passing messages
Through broken connections
It’s not quiet

Swimming in too much information

Uncompleted Jigsaw
It’s like quicksand
Where your slowly sinking
Like a revolving door
Spinning you out of control
More a stormy night
Where you are caught in the wind and rain
Love and life
Is a jigsaw I haven’t completed
Where your slowly sinking
Like a revolving door
Spinning you out of control
More a stormy night
Where you are caught in the wind and rain
Love and life
Is a jigsaw I haven’t completed

I’m curious
I’m Curious
How many understand every star in the sky
is a sun?
And that there are more stars in the sky
than sand on the earth
Think about that
And our sun is NOT the center of the
Milky Way
Left alone the
universe
I’m Curious
How many remember trees make oxygen?
And we need the rainforests to live?
How many know about the
Sea of trash
off the Pacific Coast
Slowly killing sea life
like were slowly killing
Mother Earth
Curious
How many would help a homeless woman
on...

Roam Free
Death,
She holds no fear over me
I am not afraid to let my energy
roam free
I delight in the idea
of returning
to the earth
Ashes to ashes
Returning my dust to
dust
Excited for my energy
my essences
my soul
Whatever you choose
to call it
Karmically,
I am free
I will not have to return
There will be no
reincarnation,
for the being that is me
Lessons of this lifetime learned
the next realm
awaits me
She holds no fear over me
I am not afraid to let my energy
roam free
I delight in the idea
of returning
to the earth
Ashes to ashes
Returning my dust to
dust
Excited for my energy
my essences
my soul
Whatever you choose
to call it
Karmically,
I am free
I will not have to return
There will be no
reincarnation,
for the being that is me
Lessons of this lifetime learned
the next realm
awaits me
