Time Standing Still/Poem Share

Imagine if you will

A place where time actually stood still.

A time where all that mattered was gone.

Not saying I had not a home

But a moment to reflect

Time for my soul to recollect

All that had perspired accumulated

Gathered in a sort of moments re-united.

I search no more,

Not in the frozen time warp

I only saw things in perspective

Saw the things around me that I collected

Even people and places and thoughts in no certain order

I would actually say, that mimicked a mental sort of disorder.

But time was on my side

I had no more secrets to hide

I actually felt one with my life

Saw my journey without feeling life’s knife

I paused, as if time was not still

Only to make sure I was not “ill”

And in another instance time resumed

I felt all disoriented and full of gloom

I liked imagining time at a standstill

Just to allow me to reflect as if looking through a windowsill.

If only, I thought, it could be

Then life would had been more special to me

Than cumbersome and such

But if I honest, that would be asking too much.

Diabetes, Not Defeat!

By MwsR ❤

As I sit here drinking my coffee as I often do

I find myself thinking of you.

Hard to imagine my life before you came

Since you’ve been here my whole life has changed.

You came like a Lion ready to devour its prey

All I could do was just pray that day.

We have since been closer than almost any other thing.

It’s like we are wed without the wedding ring.

I can’t say I haven’t thought of just leaving you

But I thought by now there’d be a scientific break through.

When I am out and about on the town

You are there right beside me, and I frown.

If I exercise you have to be there making sure that I feel your prescence

Wish sometimes you’d be absent!

To feel what I once felt

To not worry about stretching my belt,

These things have become prominent to me

I wish for the day you would leave me.

If you left I probably would cry

But hey, that would be me saying goodbye.

Tears of joy people would say

That would be a phenominal day!

For now though it’s like a bad twin

You tell me how…I make the when,

I choose to acknowledge you

To understand and fight too.

Diabetes you rule but I tell you how

And without me you have no power now.

Sink or swim is the saying for this disease

Just don’t say “Defeated”, if you please.

Diabetes In prisons Me/Poem Share

Most people are afraid of “bogey men”, not me

I am afraid of this blinking disease!

When you lay down at night,

I bet there is nothing that gives you fright

For me, that is not the case, you know

I have to be careful not to have a high or low

Because my sugars can change in the blink of an eye.

It is not fair to worry, when you lay down at night.

For you, life is filled with all you can or want to eat

But for me, I have to watch what I eat.

I cannot ever be lost in the woods, oh my

Because without my medication, I can die

I am a prisoner to this disease

It is a silent killer of me

Without proper care or proper medicine

I would not exist, I would serve as a critical lesson.

Something could change in the blink of an eye

You should make the most of each minute, both you and I.

Poem about Diabetes

My Disease by MwsR
It hurts to have you in my life

Each reminder pricks me like a knife.

I struggle to keep you at “bay”

But you just want go away.
Walking seems to clear my head

While you try to keep me in bed.

Food I take in

Keeps me prisoner, again.
Wishing you weren’t here

Want take away the worrisome fear.

Like an old friend that I have talked to

You remind me of what I should do.
To say my life would be different without you 

Is exactly the truth.

You came into my life when health wasn’t important to me

Taught me a lot, you see.
Diabetes you aren’t my friend

You will however be with me till the end.

So I think I’ll try to be

The one I can be with this disease.
Don’t let fear rule or dictate your life.

Live it with all you’ve been given, even amid the strife.

After all you came first before the Diabetes,

You don’t need to make a peace treaty.
Fight to live!

Take time to give!

Share your knowledge and experience,

To those who search for a difference.

Mom by MwsR
I had you in my dreams

It was amazing and real it seemed.

My heart felt you were around

Your scent my nose found.

I sensed your presence

Longed to be near you.

When I awoke it disappeared

While the memory lingered.

For a second I had you

For a lifetime remaining you are gone.

Just once I’d like to make my dreams real 

Just for a moment in this life

I’d trade a day of my own to bring back one of yours.

So I could be selfish

Have you close

Let you be real…not just a ghost.

If only.

“Flesh is weak and so is the mind who inhabits it.”

I heard that one day back in November.

Silently, I listened to the person speak.

My fingers went numb as I sat so perfectly still.

What was the meaning behind this, was there even any meaning?

I read dutifully ahead in my Bible as I was eager to find the answers…

The words resonated inside my heart

I finally knew the answer to the phrase from the very start

A person is but flesh and bones

Each having their own free will and mind

If they choose the righteous path

They will eventually, escape the final wrath.

If they choose to do the worst of things

Oh,what wrath that decision will bring.

No joy from the worth of things will they get

Sure, monetary satisfaction, “lickady split”

But in the end they will not

It is written in the “Good Book”, that I got.

Goes to show that shortly pleasures are fleeting

Life is about making heavenly choices and believing,

Grow in the wisdom, he so richly gives us all

Then in his presence you will not fall.

You will spend eternal life,

Walking with your Lord, side by side.

 

 

 

Forever Remain/ poem share

When the night seemed so long

I thought it’d never end

I trusted not in fate

But to the God I know.

I asked in prayer, more than not

To heal my mind and take away the rot.

My hope was so strong back then

Oh to have that much, once again.

My tears were as constant as my dreams

I often wished for better things

Sadness made a permanent home

In my heart where broken would roan.

Betrayal of the sacred kind

Took my joy and I wished myself to be blind

Trying hard always to not see

The things for the real way, it was for me

Others dream and wake from their dreams

I never fully have, it would seem

Always still, a little hope

Maybe myself is playing a stupid joke.

I guess I will try to keep what is left

And move on and make the best.

Often though, I still feel the deep pain

Knowing despite my trying, it will forever remain.

Diabetes

You so suck!

Figuratively  and literally

Oh what you have taken from me!

I wish there was a place where I could exchange you

Where I could choose whether or not to renew you.

I hate having you by my side 24/7

You make my food choices react to my body

Everything I do revolves around you.

I hate that sweets have become a focal point,

Where as they never seemed to be.

I do not like having to take shots, daily.

I hate all the medicine that comes with having you

You know if you were a person, you would be considered selfish.

If you were a choice, no one would ever pick you.

Everyone despises you and yet you still are around.

Wrecking hopes and dreams and leaving despair to be found.

I shutter to think what advances you will bring to my being

What things you are planning behind the exterior of my body

What is it that you aim to accomplish?

I tend to believe you care nothing about me.

In fact if I was a betting person, I would stake it all on that thought.

Look at the conditions on my own life you have brought.

You suck, you are a thief,

I wish you would leave and bring me relief,

Diabetes, go and never come back

I just want to live without losing a limb or two

A life, my life, was given to me, not you!
