It

It hurts

To be

It hurts

To be me

It hurts

To be me, even

It hurts

To be ne, even though

It hurts

To be me, even though it

It hurts

To be me, even though it shouldn’t.

Just Me, poem

No matter how much I don’t want it to be

I am the person , inside somewhere, that my mother molded me as.

I cannot escape the inferior overtones I feel

I will not let myself ever cone first

When I go out in public, I will feel on display

As if I am so important that someone is watching my every move.

I will smile, all the while my heart feels sad.

Crying only to ease my insecurities that of which I need to know I am human.

When preparing my house for visitors, I am my own worst critic

I will never feel quite enough, or adequate

I will hear things like, ” you are beautiful”, yet never will I agree.

I love you will be in need to prove to others, I care.

Satisfaction will never be, for me, cause I will never be worth obtaining it.

Succumbed I will give up, give in, give it all

Without so much a word like thanks

I am the mold she set out to make, not on purpose necessarily but because

I am not, nor ever will be, just me.

Christmas Eve

In every corner of our world

Subtle surprises are to be found

Like love that is genuine

And a forgiving heart

One night of the year

Those things become  un-magnified

They tug and pull at the heart, of those,with hearts

The silence of months past

Holding onto grudges, don’t seem to last

There is a sense of meaning in all that we do

Whether it is in gift giving

Or to  just remain “whole”

We struggle 364 days a year

But on this one night,

Everything seems more clear

We give without actually taking

Breathe without thinking

And actually seem to be better

When we snuggle in bed

Knowing we are somehow changing things.

Making new amends

Reconnecting with family or friends

Hoping a New Year will be better than the last

Taking actual time to see one another.

Tomorrow Christmas Day

Tomorrow all problems will fade just a little more

Christmas magic it is

When you believe in the spirit of the holiday.

Poem

SPILT

Image result for spilt

Long ago, I knew my life was not completely my own

Faultless I was not 

But that was okay

We are made to play in the games of life,

Despite our will fighting against that

If I were faultless it would be a mistake 

So I end up playing with my faculties in tact

Sometimes I stumble and take a quick look back

But that is not the most consuming of my life

It is when I want something that I am not to own

Like say, those that I loved in my lifetime

Those who I am now without

The ones who made me what and who I am

Those who would rather be a ghost in my life now

So see my life is stuck, kind of in a bind

Hinged upon those people in my mind

Life will not be my own until I release 

The overbearing, lingering memories, and the real

Thoughts, that in this poem I spilt.

Poem 

When by MwsR (me)
When you feel down and out,

Make your soul jump up and about.

Do something kind for someone or something

It will surely make you sing.

Life is rewarding when we start to shine

Give to less fortunate be meek and kind.

If you can’t spread a rainbow

At least be the pot of gold, you know.

For whoever finds you will find a treasure

And whoever knows you, it will be a pleasure.

The world has a way of putting clouds of gray in a person’s day

Try and be the one who can lessen that in a small way.

When you are feeling down and out,

Take care of others and you will eventually stop your pout.

Wisdom, Quotes and Things

 

“To be or not to be”, 

That will never be said of me

I am who I am and I do not need to announce it.

“Crawl back into your hole”, you say

I say, In a hole might just be better,

You never know.

Let by gones be by gones”,

How can that work

Our minds don’t forget.

“To each his own”, 

That is all wrong.

Everything affects everyone, regardless.

“Hide it under a bushel”,

No! I think not

There are creepy things in there.

“Live and let live”

Well that is always the case

You cannot stop anyone from going on with their lives.

Follow the golden rules

But how do you know those aren’t for fools?

Who made those anyway?

“Count your blessings”, 

That is truly impossible.

What would be the use.

Sayings, quotes and things

Were created from ordinary people,

Wanting ordinary common things

Expecting to be heard, or noticed.

Some give wisdom, some give nothing

That is the nature of free speech.

“Take it to heart”…if you wish

No, it will not make you smart,

But it might change things up a bit.

I am writing this for no particular reason

Just thought ’tis the season…

or is it?

It takes a Believer, by MwsR

It Takes A Believer
Swirling around, somewhere resting

Only to be awaken
Inconsistent messages start the quests

Only the impact remains
Friends that promised forever

In good times and in bad
Calling only whenever

Forgetting as usual
Family that wandered off into the abyss

Just secretly hid is all
It’s not them but their promises you miss

It’s the ones they actually kept
Memories they can anchor or sink us

That’s why there are life perservers
Blood that’s common

Actual connection that’s not
Words are not what we build upon

But actions are
Struggles teach us

Books don’t prepare our hearts
Words followed by, constant fussing

Sinking to the deepest
Chances to take

If only you’re willing
Come each day break

Ourselves to lead into
The first won’t ensure the best beginning

But the end will signal you
At the end or while leading

It takes a believer to start

Fool

Like shadows  forming before my eyes

Sometimes what I remember is a really big surprise

I often lay awake first thing  in the morning, just thinking on it all.

I remember little tidbits of things, before we had our falling out.

I remember how it was in my head at least.

My heart still tricks itself into believing,

That things can be back where they once were.

Ah and alas the bruised heart will keep trying!

I wish it would just give itself a break

Or better yet wise up.

It keeps me prisoner in a way,

In other ways it has also set me free.

Hard to express these feelings deep inside of me.

Hard to tell yourself after 21 years ,

That there is no rhyme or reasoning of your longtime tears.

The fakers in your life

The liars still as they are, still can hurt you

Why?

Why is it the things we let ourselves believe and cling to,

Will ultimately tear us apart.

If we let them.

We do not have to let them!

Simple as looking forward can be, we can forgive them

Forgive ourselves for being the fools.

Forgive the childish feelings of bliss and hope,

Let it all fall to the wayside when we are done.

Let those feelings have a place somewhere,

Somewhere else beside taking residence in our heart and mind.

And then there is always time!

Time will help to lessen all those blows, all those knows, we have.

The secret is time, I must confess.

But I am still a fool at heart, believing still,

I need to be saved from myself, I think.

Or face my feelings head on.

Go back to those unsaid things of long ago.

Make an effort one more time

No I am not blind!

I am just a believer, a hope ridden fool.

I am me and that is exactly what I know.
