Let me sleep
Let me be the person
I need
And want to be.
Rest
Deeply sleep
Dream
And be oh so happy.

Let Me Sleep

I Feel The Magnitude Of It All
July 31, 2018
I feel the magnitude of it all
It shoves the good
The bad in my face
Making distinctions none at all.
I cope, I handle
Sometimes overwhelmed
One foot in front of another
I struggle and demand.
To have a life
A role in this universe
My little section I can love
That no one else can command.

Trust Me For I Know
July 30, 2018
Trust me for I know a lot
Not that you don’t
I’m sure you know, know a lot.
It’s just that in this time of strife
I’ve been here, I know how anger
Can eat away all happiness
Leaving nothing in your heart.
Please put away your revenge
Your ‘Get Even Tools’
Please see the magnitude
Of what lies before you
And forgiveness be your attitude.

My Choice To Make It
July 26, 2018
Feel my world change
For the better or the worse
My choice to make it
As I wish
The world doesn’t care
You see
Its moving as it should
It’s my choice to make it
The best, even better
Than a passing good.

Hidden Thoughts
July 25, 2018
Hidden Thoughts, secret lives
Never brought to the light
Held in darkness, cruel and rude
Fester abscess, no solitude.
Bring forth, let go
Rise the sun, curtains blow
In a wind of purity
pure white as the snow.
Then their secrets, dark and cold
Are exposed, let go
To live in happiness
That only you can ever know.

Uplifting A Life
July 24, 2018
Uplifting a life, mine or another
Feeling less anger, strife
With each endeavour.
No one is perfect
No one lives on their own
We are all connected in life
Our world, nothing is alone.
Savour each leaf, honour an insect
Going about it’s business
Unbeknown to the beaver floating
In the creek.
We are all connected
We all need to be uplifting, loving
One another no matter
Our way of life, our beliefs.

Helping Still
July 23, 2018
Helping still in the deep, dark mellow time
I can’t remember why or where
I met the soul who pulled me out
Stood beside and helped bring about
All the wondrous things
I now shout out.

I See The Beauty
July 17, 2018
I see the beauty
The magnificence
In all the land.
As I stand in awe of all
She reaches down
She touches me
She touches all.
She understands.

I Cope
July 16, 2018
In the heat of the moment
I cope
I learn to adjust
Not using mirrors, illusions
Or blinding smoke
I cope
Moving forward addressing
The matter, using kind words
Smiles and laughter
I cope
Nothing matters as much
As that I solve the issue
Adjust and move forward
That I cope.

Feel The Rays Of Sunshine Bright
July 11, 2018
Feel the rays of sunshine bright
Beaming down from morning to night
Their passing is silent
Searing hot, radiating light
From millions of miles away
In a landscape both hot, tumultuous
And blazing bright, the sun comes
Bringing nutritious, living life.
