Forgive Me Forgive Me for making you chase waterfalls the wift of what could have been the dust of my essences as I float a drift lost to you and you to me. Forgive me as I swerve any which way I have no say I must bend to the wind. Forgive me for being sick of the ugliness of life for earth's sweet relief I will pray. Forgive me for the dim smile I promise to come back from my woeful lacking. Forgive me I will soon be like the sea free to flow freely.

Why Apologise
Why Apologise You said it already You did it already Why apologise? Than glint in your eyes cannot lie I know you will do it again. I guess I must trust that you will mean it this time. But could it be a lie this time again am I insane to trust you again and again? Oh why apologise! When I was ready to cut ties and ride off into the sunset away from sure demise.
You Like. I Love
You Like. I Love You like it I love it Who am I to judge. I'm not God I don't know how to measure right or wrong. Yes I know what I like but not for you, so do what you have to do. All those who judge, judge themselves, they have the closet and all their garbage in it. But I wont judge, cause I have my own.
me against Me. Always
Does it always seem you have to be guarding against yourself. Is your greatest enemy you? In a lot of ways, we can be our harshest critic and our greatest liability. I am not here to sprout any words of wisdom, not today at least but to ask some really important questions for self-reflection.
Question 1: Who taught us that we need to be perfect? At what stage in life did we accept that our value lies in successfully jumping the hurdles life places before us? I have come to recognise in myself a need for perfection that has time and again led to some very imperfect results. it seems the more we strive for perfection the worse we perform. However, recognising this very poor tendency to aim for perfection does not mean it is easy to overcome. When I think I have mastered the art of accepting my flaws I am reminded that indeed I have not!
Question 2: Why are we obsessed with the past time of comparing ourselves with others? We know that comparison is the thief of joy, but we persist in doing so. There is no way that I can be anyone other than myself and yet we may find ourselves being drawn into this unwanted sport of comparisons.
Question 3: Why do we try to please others? I have been guilty of trying to fit into the mould someone created form. Do you know what happens when you squeeze into a mould not designed for you? If you are successful in your squeezing it disfigured you. You morph into a contradictory shape of the original that will never match it, to even come close to it.
Question 4: Why do we hold on to things that are destroying us? This is one of the saddest and scariest things we do. We know we should let go, we tell ourselves we will and yet actually doing so is so painfully hard. Why? I think fear has a lot to do with it.
Question 5: Why do we allow fear to control us? I think life would be so much better if we became fearless. Not a little more fearless, because too many persons have no concept of what it is to be fearless. There are too many of us who allow fear to control every decision, every action and every word we utter. We have to find and way to do things, say things and be in spite of those naggingly annoying fear waiting to trip us up.
There is no easy answer to overcoming self-sabotage. It’s a daily struggle we have to fight with and win. Keep fighting.
It Will be Worth It
It Will Be Worth It That pool of sweat and grime that you are swimming in, it won't drown you, it will give you life. That rush of blood, marrow and spleen that attacks you will not silence you they are fuel to propel you. You think you are defeated and you wish you had retreated back into the hole to lick your wounds and console yourself. But if you just stay awhile, face this trial head first to quench the thrist of those dreams waiting to be seen. Just wait it will be worth it after all when you are redeemed.
There is No Seat
There is No Seat I stood at the door looking for the shore to lay my anchor down. I see the warmth directed everywhere, but there is none for me. I peek inside rooted at the threshhold and see, all of those chairs looking back at me. But there is no seat avaliable for me, and like that one tremulous dew drop I quiver, cold, alone. I turn the way I came,looked back at this once familar and loved scene. I cannot stay. I must find my chair out there.
i said i love you
i said i love you i said i love you but not how strong right now i love you but not all the day long. must i lie pretend to be shy and give you a teddy for you to wear on your sleeves? i said i love you but not that much to give up and flush all of my dreams as small as they seem to follow your highlight reel. I said I love you take it or leave to make room then for someone who believes.
