“If you learn to really sit with loneliness and embrace it for the gift that it is…an opportunity to get to know YOU, to learn how strong you really are, to depend on no one but YOU for your happiness…you will realize that a little loneliness goes a LONG way in creating a richer, deeper, more vibrant and colorful YOU.”

Poem

Deeper Shade of Blue
Tragedy is something that happens without warning
So to say you were a tragedy in my life would not be fair.
I knew how you were the day I met you.
It was like a deeper shade of blue.
Your smile somehow knew how to find me
I was your puppet for the day.
I did not question it at all.
With you I did not feel small.
I felt as if you knew my heart
Even as I took a breath I felt you anticipated that
Taking for granted, you did, that I would stay
I think you liked having your own way.
Smart, and conniving
You roped me in
Took my heart, and all that was within.
I shall never go back to who I was then.
Like a packaged delivery,
You had a destination in mind
Taking my peace and wrecking my once stable head
I would of done better, had I just been dead.
At least I would had been in a place of rest
Now there can be none inside my head
Battered and bruised, I am but a shallow of what I once was
That works perfectly for you, in the aspect of us.
Simply I walked away from you
Wresting with the remnants of us
In all the cluttered, messed up things
That used to be attached to all those chains.
