Awry
Presently things are a mess
Still there are moments when I feel that I am blessed
I hate writing about dark things
I would much rather uplift people and see the happiness that it brings
However it's hard to be something that your not
Happiness has long gone so here's the plot
Currently I'm in over my head, with feelings that I would only find peace if I was dead
I'm young and smart with an old soul heart
Always caring but it's like all I have is depression
A bunch of people in my life with little understanding
Of this thing called life, instead of curbing strife
We push love aside no room for pride
We're all the same no one is to blame there's just forgiveness and the joy It can bring
Blessings
Staring off into space
My current objective misplaced
My wife asking why the long face
I say nothing
Well nothing I can erase
Bad memories come back
With all the emotions firmly attached
I wish I could drive away
Leaving those thoughts In a far away place
Luckily I only have to look at my daughter's face
She's always smiling and playing
Reminding me to do the same
Even when I feel im failing
Children are a blessing
Battlefield
A person can be a million miles away and impact you like a bomb on D day. I don't know about you, but I struggle to forget the people who were rude. Or left me to live on my own, the after math of being disowned, lingers and hurts like a bad stinger. The mind is a battlefield. Forgive, forget and just live.
Prose Challenge
I'm new to prose
Up for the challenge never opposed
This site provides fresh air
To the poetic and self aware
So great I must declare
A state of emergency
So many unique publishings
It will inspire your mind
To break free from the bind
Put there by uncreative guidlines
The world is your oyster
Here at prose
Publish the best your mind can muster
Life
Some people are like wine
They become better people with time
Did I reached my prime early in life?
Graduated college yet has nothing nice
That's just material things
I guess society conditions the brain
My success in contingent upon
The happiness I bring my two loves
I do think about the material things
But life is what you want it to be
