The beginning of the end.


A face with a name and a smile
A heart with love so divine
A voice with an accent, she eloquently speaks
Words reel off on paper, her thoughts she screams.
Where do we look, when we want to find?
Who do we turn to, at the edge of losing our minds?
The vivid dreams played over and over again.
What do they mean?
When will they end?
The great escape is so hard to find.
Yet, being curled up in a ball can relieve all the pain that’s inside.
Pain.
Why do you torment me?
No warning!
Some warning.
Letting go, or giving in.
How do you know?
Anger?
Frustration?
Weakness?
Love?
Laughing at yourself, sometimes at the situation.
Foolish!
Maybe.
Stubbornness, pure pigheadedness!
My way or the highway?
Disappointment
Left to wonder, left to worry.
Giving up the dream, or what’s left of the dream.
It hard! So hard!
The jealousy
The possessiveness
Going back and forth
Confusing the whole process
Running out of time
Time
No time for anything
No time for me
Empty promises
Broken promises
Wondering if I know you?
That’s a silly question.
I know you because your dreams are my dreams.
Craving that ultimate sense of peace.
Divinity.
Forever working towards your goals.
Sacrificing.
Self-loving
Giving freely.
Loving others and sometimes too much.
Slowly drifting
Running
The excuses
Negative thoughts and words thrown at you.
Deficiencies highlighted
The shame
Stumbling over the words
Shocked!
No explanation
Blurred vision from uncontrolled tears
Salty, hot tears.
Disappointed
Hurt
The words didn’t come
The words couldn’t come
What now?
Repair?
Abandon?
Too many rude awakenings
Too many unexpected reactions
Lessons
Fight or surrender?
Retaliate or remain calm and humble?
Roll with the punches.
Smile
Relax
Laugh
Let life run its course
Let it be
Just, let it be.

It Was Good For Me That I Was Afflicted

  It must be disheartening to know I have had to heal from you that your betrayal is one of the reasons for   the crisp clear   obvious lines I now flaunt   You must have suffered some disappointment by my loss of poor self-esteem because I had found the courage to become inconvenient for you   You must have had some pondering days   Because I was good to you   and you knew I never deserved it But   it was good for me that I was afflicted   It was good that your big, bad, broad, petty back was turned when I truly needed you because I would still be hanging on to your coattails It was good for me that I was afflicted   I had to fight my way through my own self-inflicted wounds to wind up in my healing alone I was overly confident about my position in your life I thought you were a day one even though you weren’t around since day one   But had the feeling like a day one Maybe because I treated you like a day one and things that happen...

Bland

After the earthquake, I smile. I might fall a little or maybe a lot but I get up.  I get up because I realize that there is nothing down there for me to do. Down was not home; it was uncomfortable. Poco a poco with a spoon for a shovel and faith so big, Mount Everest trembles, I crawl out. Residue lingers but making the best of the moment is what counts. That's all that matters. When dry runs and inconvenient pit falls run amok.  The moment counts.  All the moments count. 

Walk signal

The blackened sky promises more than just rain.  The promise of complete destruction knocks on a frail, weathered door.  Open door Close door Open door Half way  Door falling of the hinges, fresh paint covering the mildew.  Strange hands gripping the handle, almost loosening the last rusting screw.  The blackened sky promises more than just rain.  Syncing with the troubled wind, secretly hoping for the rain. Still The unknown, blackened sky promises more than just rain.  Trust the wind, trust the promise of rain.  Trust.  Blue skies painted black with false hope and broken hearts.  Misguided, falling for the promise of rain.  Was it wrong to hope, for a little bit of rain?
