Maddening Anger Washing Over Me

September 27, 2013

Maddening anger washing over me
Saddening anguish consuming me
Struggle to shake off
Blend and be
A happy person no matter
Whats happening in and around
Of me.

Crisis Crunch

September 10, 2013

Crisis crunch
Not a blessed thing I can do
Master anger here in charge
Not letting anyone disregard
All this mess spread about.

Anger, frustration
Does abound
Method used is not the one
Must change my options
Find someone who knows
Quiet, elegant all
Those wonder times.

Spend it there
Make it like a nursery rhyme
Full of happiness all the time
All the time
Make it a blessed nursery rhyme.

A Doormat I Will No Longer Be

June 18, 2013

A doormat I will no longer be
Steeped in anger where
Frustration does abound
This is the time to stand
Stand my ground.

Let no one push
Push me around
No need to fight bicker or respite
Just nicely say
No, this is not the way.

I won’t be intimidated anymore
Today or any other day
A doormat no longer will I be
This is the stand that’s going to see
The nice and happy no doormat me.

The Drinks Go Down

May 27, 2013

Iris photo by Patrice

The drinks go down
In the hummingbird feeder
As the sun warms the sky
Grass blows on a breeze
Destined to bring rain
To the evening’s brilliant blue sky.

All seems right
All seems as it should be
No sight of anger
Or struggle to combat.

Just a spring day
Over coming all that.

Anger, Frustration, Chaos A Maze

May 6, 2013

Travel thru time ~ photo by Patrice

Anger, frustration, chaos a maze
Struggling not to enslave
Power is paramount in this I crave
Out of the hill I find myself
Climbing so dazed.

Leave me be strong and right
In the thinking I need tonight
Figure a way out of this maze
See the opening you need
And you crave.

Make the right way happen
In front of my face
See the steps taken will lead the right way
Wisdom is crucial in this that I do
Be patient and wait for
The right answer too.

Fill you with glory, magnificent frame
See ugly wither and most likely drain
Straight down the hell hole where
To reside
And in all fairness probably find
Happiness there to hide.

Sweet, sweet refrain abide with me now
Lift up my spirits please show me how
Live in a world I have no power to change
Choose the right road down which
I can retain
All calmness and beauty whatever the game.

I Close My Eyes Just To Feel My Heart

November 12, 2012

Dedicated to Sue, who has lost her beloved horse, Yorkie.
Our thoughts are with you.

I close my eyes just to feel my heart
Feel the pain
Please make it to depart
Lost to all never more to be
The call I loved and adored from thee.

Feel the sadness reign
Beginning down the path
Of no gladness, ecstasy
Only sadden, weeping pain.

You have gone, lost to me
Remorse is not the word
I need or want to see
Tears once of joy shattered
Left, gone no more to employ
Only rivers long, tragic and so deep
Flowing with overwhelming sadness
Do they weep.

Brought down to my knees
Blows of anguish
Anger
Morose disbelief.

Truly thought you’d live forever
Now know is never going to be
Love you ever
Ever please believe
Wanted never
You to leave me never
Ever leave me never please.

Now gone I oh so weep
I steep my heart in sorrow
Feel your presence and
Tomorrow I’ll close my eyes
Just to feel my heart
As it bleeds and weeps.

To Cry Is Human

October 5, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To cry is human.
It shows you care.

To laugh is human.
It shows you have joy.

To anger is human.
It shows you feel.

To remember is human.
It shows you have been.

To die is human.
It shows you have lived.
~ Patrice

I Struggle Here Today

September 20, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I struggle here today
In a deep and dark moody way
Anger wells up within
Stepping on a smiling grin
Bringing frustration to the fore
Please go away
Be here never, no more.

Nothing more to say
Try to shift my mood away
From darkness, anger
And all that stuff
To where the sun shines
Clear, oh so bright
And I can be an endearing part
Of whatever hits my aching heart.

Anger Frustration, Darkness And Fear

July 23, 2012

 

 

 

Anger frustration
Darkness and fear.

They dwell here.

A moment ago
I drove them out
Back they came
Right back here.

Freedom to lose them
Freedom to be happy
Without anger, frustration
Darkness and fear.

No one to blame
No one to fear.

Muster the courage
Step out of the darkness
Step there to the place
We hold dear.

No anger, frustration
Darkness or fear.

Anger Is Nowhere

June 15, 2012

Anger is nowhere.
See it for what it is.
Put it in a box and send it somewhere.
Somewhere far out in space
where it can’t hurt anyone, anymore.
