Poem

War With Ourselves, by MwsR

Do you battle anyone who chooses differently than you do?

Is there not anything good that happens to you?

Maybe turn and look real hard at your own self,

Look at the blame you’ve bestowed on everyone else.

Maybe, just maybe, it happened the way it did because of your actions.

Just maybe it was because of your reactions.

The hardest thing can be analyzing

Seeing what’s wrong and start focusing to remove the things that are paralyzing.

Instead of laying blame,

Try to get rid of your own shame.

Nothing can be done until you stop and think

Sometimes things happen in a blink.

Quit talking, gossiping, and stop tearing down

We all have an occasion to wear a frown.

Maybe it’s you, you are the one

Maybe our war is with ourselves, not with someone.

Do you battle anyone who chooses differently than you do?
Is there not anything good that happens to you?
Maybe turn and look real hard at your own self,
Look at the blame you’ve bestowed on everyone else.
Maybe, just maybe, it happened the way it did because of your actions.
Just maybe it was because of your reactions.
The hardest thing can be analyzing
Seeing what’s wrong and start focusing to remove the things that are paralyzing.
Instead of laying blame,
Try to get rid of your own shame.
Nothing can be done until you stop and think
Sometimes things happen in a blink.
Quit talking, gossiping, and stop tearing down
We all have an occasion to wear a frown.
Maybe it’s you, you are the one
Maybe our war is with ourselves, not with someone.

How we see ourselves is not always how others do.

It is a defining thing for the way we deal and interact with others.

Sometimes it really hard to come to terms with what we find out.

If someone takes the time to tell you things about yourself, that they perceive, perhaps we could benefit from knowing, and in turn, turn things around that might be upside down.

If we do not like what others see we can take the opportunity to change and help them to see us in a different light.

Who knows?

Broken…by MwsR

There is a something that happens to us

Something that happens when in people we trust.

It comes with a great risk and great pain

Leaving on our hearts a great stain.

When things go south as they often do

It’s not the good that leaves us feeling so blue.

It’s the trust that we gave to someone

The naked feelings we shared with that one.

Only to find we have hurt ourselves

By mistaking their motives.

Or we simply try to be open

In the end though it is us that get broken.

Much Needed/ MwsR

In day-to-day living we often time forget

We do not cherish much the littlest of things

Often we are loaded down with work or daily tasks

That our joys are on the back burner.

Trying to keep a head of things we make plans

We set our calendars with things to do

When was the last time you planned for you?

 

In taking time to “smell the roses” we get rejuvenated

We replenish ourselves with some much-needed attention

Then we can keep on keeping on, are you following me, my friend?

The most important us we have is ourselves.

Without giving ourselves time or rest

We cannot truly give to other things our best.

Take this day to make yourself the focus!
