Poem

They say,
In time you’re going to forget about it
But,
You find you can’t
They say,
If you are having a bad day, turn it around
But,
All you feel is down
They say,
Smile so others feel better
But,
What if you are the one needing to.
They say,
Live and let live
But,
Everything that’s done impacts one another in some fashion.
They say,
If the shoe fits, wear it
But,
They don’t understand that all shoes aren’t created equal.
They say,
Who are the “they” anyway?
But,
Why do we listen if we don’t know it to be the truth?
I say
Every situation varies, every person is different
Because
That is something that I know.

Poem

1 small victory makes a person optimistic.
What are we if we have no hope?

If You Knew….byMwR

If only you could see
All I know you can be.
You would love you like me.

If wishes made dreams come true
It would be happy I wish, not gloom.
This would be for you.

If you need to see courage look to the sun,
It shines all day long without someone.
It shines instead of trying to run.

If this made sense, this poem of mine
Then you know you have the power to shine.
Please shine, please and you’ll be fine.

I Wonder By MwsR

Will there come a time
In this life of mine
That I will be free.

There is so much bottled inside
So many things I did not say back then,
In the days where fear let sickness win.

I wonder if the people from long ago
Know how much they really did
know how much they hurt me so?

See a person should never feel shameful
For what others think of them,
They should not be accountable, it isn’t their sin.

There is a place where my heart and mind revisit
It is not a kind place, but rather avoid, a heart fall.
It flows ever so often, though because of it, I will not crawl.

Despite the things I had to endure,
Had to deal with and so forth, nor did I choose
It has no rope around my dreams it can never have those.

I wonder why we are subjected to a cruel man’s hand
Is it to rise and be better than the ordinary man?
I will always wonder, and yet always stand.

*For those out there struggling with something someone you love or trust has done to you,
It does not have to crush your dreams or make your heart fall…
It does not have to do anything. It is your call.

Spring by MwsR

Many things come to mind when I think of spring.
One of them is that the flowers start to bloom and new things begin.
I love the newness of life, be it flowers, or babies, or animals.
The tiniest of things can make the biggest room in your heart if only you look.
Sometimes we ourselves need a new beginning, a new life season.
It is so easy to get bogged down by bills, relationships, and trials we face.
I think that everyone has a piece inside them that is just laying there waiting to be re-born.
I think that we all would like to have a second chance, a second glance, and more importantly a time when our spirits are renewed, possibly a time when our faith is restored and our minds can settle.
I love nature, and the treasures it has.
I encourage you to stop and literally smell the roses, find your safe place or your tranquil spirit.
It is there…really it is.
No one can do it for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poem by MwsR

PERHAPS

Perhaps this is a test

Maybe a trial

Should we all sit back and think of it a while

Does our future lie in wait?

Maybe dreams are second to this

Perhaps there is something greater we might miss.

A greater force is present

Something more to the equation, despite

Our best efforts, from everyone running with fright.

There is a time for everything

A time to mend,

A time to bend

There is time to heal and resist being ill

Somethings under the sun will hurt like a quill

Sometimes there will be rumors and such

Bringing our full attention, we should, very much

Time to help, if we will

Give back and support others still.

Things are meant to change

This sometimes means making a radical move

Making sense of this, because there is much to prove

Our minds need rest,

Our bodies need strength

The people need answers, the need restrictive covenant.

Apparently by MwsR

Feeling as if there is just one tomorrow
Inside this ache filled with sorrow. Wishing it all to be a bad dream
Apparently, though it is as real as it seems.

No One, by MwsR

I feel it crush me from the inside

It gives no room for comfort or relief

Constantly grinding and replaying the same way

I feel as if my chest will crumble under the weight of it all.

Looking around for one person strong enough to help

Yet never finding one

Swirling around, they are, from the winds in their own lives

Not able to grasp their own remedy, let alone mine

In one moment, things change

It can go from comfort to distress in the same minute

Sometimes, it comes as if it were a thief

Sometimes, it comes in as cold as ice

This is the life of a person torn into different frays of their life

This is how it will come, how it presents itself

No one is safe from this.

No one, not no one.

Poem by MwsR

Not right, not fair

Have I not always been there?

How come, why is that

You should not treat someone like an old hat.

Whose fault is it

Are you not to blame?

Why must you have to curse my name?

Did you forget it was me

Who loved you unconditionally.

What’s that you whisper

I can not make my feelings any clearer.

Of course, it is mute

I am the cracked flute

Still here but cracked by all your lies

All the deception,

I need a resolution.

Sooner, rather than later

Make me know that I matter

Tell me how important I am

Hurry, the door will slam!
