This moment

We suppose it matters not

what could have been

for what Is

is a treasure 

we feel it within

 

and we're grateful

for all that was

even if 

it had damaged our trust

 

twisted up

and thrown to bust

we turned it around 

to came back to love

 

We are better now

than ever we'd been

the smile on the face

is truly a grin

 

not a falsehood...

 

so now we must thank you

for what you had done

even the parts 

that weren't any fun

 

as they led us here

To this beautiful place

where love shines its light

and we live full with grace

 

though we stumble...

every once in a while

as we crumble...

to break down the walls

 

of those boundaries...

which we chose to build up

when threatened...

by our inner most thoughts

 

we come back to love

as we notice the fear

grabbing that wheel

as we choose to steer

 

in directions...

that lead us toward light

trusting our hearts

to choose what is right

Beautiful thoughts on how

Beautiful thoughts on how pain shapes us. My kind of poetry. Always looking to the light makes the darkness not so scary. Love this.

I'm not on much either.

I'm not on much either. Wrapped up in mechanic stuff. I could write about it but it would probably be rant fest. Actually, I just keep getting jumbled in my words. Flow is clogged up and disjointed. Anywho. I will check out your latest when I'm done having 10 conversations at once. Mechanics, insurance, friends... So much going on right now!

"You will remember

This moment as you dig into me
And from your smile now it seems as if you like it
You're gonna cherish this moment as you dig into me"


And absolutely no other line from that song fits. 'Cause, ironically enough, its a fight song.


Loved this. Made me wanna chase a sunset :)

I like those words

I like those words too.

 

Wish I could chase a sunset

but I'm waiting out the rain

Saw a rainbow for a moment

Which eased the suffering

Tomorrow we will drive again

Heading home is in the plans

But first we'll find a hot spring 

Which we will soak within 

 

See that, you getting me to work a little. Lol

.Awe

Thanks, Milyardo! It's always nice to hear things like that. Been real busy myself. Should be documenting but my fingers haven't wanted to do this kind of work lately. My head writes for half moments but quits when I get to the pages. Oh well. I'm sure it will come sooner or later. Sometimes, I think it's too late. Meh. Anyhoo. Nice to hear from you!

Aargh! I wish I could just

Aargh! I wish I could just get out of my own way and blast through my writers block! I got so many stories. Just feel like I get all jumbled up and can't Tay focused with one thought, you know? Feeling all discombobulated. So grateful to hear you still like my work! Makes me want to write even more. We will get there.

For Us It Would Be

A hallelujah get-down with the praise, sing loud and off key, and thank God together ceremony/ritual; but I get your drift. If we all do it together. Uplifting write - allets - :D
