When you down and out
How many of us remember these great words from a popular song, that nobody wants you when you are down and out.😞 For sure those words hold true to life, for how many of us have been in that kind of situation, when life situations have you feeling like that nobody wants you around 🤔 YET when you was up on your grind coming up it's funny, how they want you around, to get help with their own situations whether it's a conversation or in caring words or it's cash or a helping hand. 🤨 But yet they remember your name and the helping hand, you done for them when they needed...

The Desolate Glove
One cold autumn morning in late November a glove on the clothes line decided that life with it's mate was boring & awful.
It persuaded the clothespin to render it's hold and blew away on the next breeze.
A little girl stumbled upon it and loved the pretty colors.
She took it home and her mother got notice of it and told her daughter to throw it away.
As she was about to throw the glove away in the garbage pail outside, she became sidetracked and left the glove on the ground.
A stray dog saw the glove and began biting & tearing at...

Weep the Flowers
tears flower on my face
blooming so beautifully out of place
a gentle smile beseeching them not to show
but their delicate nature draws attention to my hardened expressions
forlorn they grow wildly without nuture
sweet daisies of faith come from deep within me
A memory is all it takes to reduce me to nothing
babies' breath moves in its spot in the garden, grieving
exhaling the pain and inhaling something tender
Tiny epiphanies show in my eyes
my soul is disconnected from my mind
so when I weep, it is from my sacred heart...

Careless Whispers
How do you address the deepness of the nonsense of negativity, that has come from those who are hell bent on saying what they want to say to you. 🤬 For sure it's necessary to understand that what we say to someone, without explaining the reason, or the need for not having a discussion to clear the air, and to take out the negativity, that has been thrown around like a run away train on the wrong tracks. But yet you are entitled to your own, personal opinions as well as I am entitled to mine. For sure we can never make a wrong RIGHT, without clarity and pure understanding of what was...

real
hateful day I'm hurting so bad I scream
could skin feel any tighter
claustrophobic in my body
needful ache I want out in the worst way
My soul doesn't fit in this form
It contains me like a prison
Art is escaping
strangulation of soul is capturing me this way
my need is up and out
manifesting in several dopplegangers at once
freedom of expression releasing my pain
hurtful understanding I was abandon here
This visage doesn't suit me
doesn't represent who I am
my soul resists the urge to discard it ...

"The Feathers Fall, The Stone's Lament"
A chasm yawned, a sepulchral well,
Wherein my soul, in darkness fell.
No Lethe’s stream, no quenching tide,
But arid void, where phantoms hide.
I knew it not, the fatal leap,
But found myself where shadows sleep.
This “beauty,” fiendish, hellish art,
A vaulted tomb, to tear apart.
The moon, a spectral, pallid gleam,
A moment’s respite, a fevered dream.
A rounded chamber, cold and vast,
Where hope lies shattered, shadows cast.
Emptiness, a shroud, a winding sheet,
I crave its touch, its bitter sweet. ...
Wherein my soul, in darkness fell.

But arid void, where phantoms hide.

A vaulted tomb, to tear apart.
The moon, a spectral, pallid gleam,
A moment’s respite, a fevered dream.
A rounded chamber, cold and vast,
Where hope lies shattered, shadows cast.

A genuine smile?
My smile hides me
I can mislead all of you
Hurt, a distant tear
I can mislead all of you
Hurt, a distant tear

THE PROMISE
He knelt before her
With sweaty palms and on feeble knees
The future before his eyes forever a blur
As he took his hand in his to make his plea
Opening the ring box – he made his proposal
Wondering with heart-racing pounds if she’d accept or deny
His plea he placed at her mercy or disposal
Seconds seemed long before her reply
Granting her final answer with acceptance
With only a few months to retract her admittance.
Sliding the ring on her finger – he betrothed
As they exchanged their personal oaths
Promising each other...
With sweaty palms and on feeble knees
The future before his eyes forever a blur
As he took his hand in his to make his plea
Opening the ring box – he made his proposal
Wondering with heart-racing pounds if she’d accept or deny
His plea he placed at her mercy or disposal
Seconds seemed long before her reply
Granting her final answer with acceptance
With only a few months to retract her admittance.
Sliding the ring on her finger – he betrothed
As they exchanged their personal oaths
Promising each other...

Don't take knowone for granted
It's true what the elders say that we should never take nothing for granted, as this is life in real life time. For sure do you know for sure that tomorrow, isn't a promise 🤨 for it's a blessing in the form of a gift, to have and behold of a precious kind of life, as well as a beautiful blessing sometimes as a disguise. For sure it's never good to be taken for granted, just like love and happiness of a kindness of a beautiful heart. ❤️ But yet there are those who are creatures of habits, that just don't want to do right for they prefer to do wrong, 😔 to someone...

Why we can't find love
Why we can't find love in these days and times, as well as the truth of what love really means to the, deepness of the truth of a beautiful heart 💖 For sure why continue to tell yourself that love doesn't exist anymore, for isn't it hard enough. YET we always find situations in our own life, to compare what is truly happening, in our lives in these days and times. To be able to have a strong commitment with real consistency and real communications. TO be able to share our thoughts and insight and feelings and emotions, in the process of deeply creating a solid foundation. For it's...

inteloper
your soul crossed mine at a fated course
awaiting your face, not knowing how you would appear
with a smile that dazzled and eyes that spark
my being was charmed
interloper of the soul you became so much of who I am
my love for you unparrelel now in our late days
We are just friends
who sometimes crave so much more
but it's late in the day
and my body aches
with feelings of doubt I lament
I'm not the lithe girl you recall
in the sadness weep for things that won't return to me
when you look at others with those...

Father, I get so much Joy after I had prayed to you
Father, I get so much
Joy after I had prayed
To you
Before I go to sleep
Every single night
In my bed
Tonight when I had prayed
To you in my prayer
I had asked for you
To remove the anger
That I have
And also I ask my father
To help me with daily
Problems
Because I am not sure
How to work in solving
My daily problems
Also, my father when I sleep
In my bed at night
I never wake up
In the middle of the night
I sleep all through the night
Like a log
Also, I know that you
Father...
Joy after I had prayed
To you
Before I go to sleep
Every single night
In my bed
Tonight when I had prayed
To you in my prayer
I had asked for you
To remove the anger
That I have
And also I ask my father
To help me with daily
Problems
Because I am not sure
How to work in solving
My daily problems
Also, my father when I sleep
In my bed at night
I never wake up
In the middle of the night
I sleep all through the night
Like a log
Also, I know that you
