When we hold grudges,
we hurt ourselves,
Instead of learning from others,
We cause our heart to fail.
Without resentment
We’re free as a bird
showing love to others
Becomes more than words
Actions towards others
show kindness in our hearts
We learn from our mistakes
Which is a great start
Isolation &sadness,
The world is flat
Money, struggling
We all know that
If we adjust attitude,
Smile a little more
We can find a rainbow
Love our inner core
An attitude of gratitude
Shows within
We find ourselves helping
Strangers or a friend
Why not choose
Happy over sad
A smile over a frown
In our heart be glad

He is the one
My heart so full
Like a eagle in the sky
He flies with angels
so kind and gentle
A love like no other
I will always be grateful

A black crow flys west,
The winter is coming.
The azure skies w/cold sun
She keeps running
If she goes back,
He’ll hurt her again
He was once kind
Now full of sin.
She must be strong
Survival the key
2 hours later
She comes to me
Abuse can happen
So sad a shock
She opens up
Begins to talk
Her swollen bruised eye
Story of her life
Her constant fear
Her face she tried
#abuse #poem #pain
The candle burned brightly,
A soft ember rose
Like the love in her life,
Her feelings grow.
A new relationship stirs
Feelings grow bright
Like the stars in the sky
So clear in the night
She couldn’t believe she met
The man of your dreams
Her life now full,
W happiness it seems
Eminence is spreading,
People can’t see,
Natures external beauty
Blooming roses or trees
They can’t find happiness
Missing true color
Like a black and white tv
Chasing one thing or another
Vinyls for music,
Gone with the past
Bands come and go
Memories don’t last
Leaves falling,
The softest bed
The trees barren
Lost yellows and red
I walk a path
Nature left behind
The coolest breeze
The trails I find
The cooler weather
The birds fly south
Holidays coming
Shorter days now
