And a Wish For Today
The Poignant Poppies are all but scattered around.With glittered eyes, I'll paint my hopes on the ground.So the slow downward sunset gleams. And the only weapon that counts is to hear from the ground. These sad realities haunt me when I am on my knees. Will I ever find peace of mind and pretend that I am free. The least I can do is to believe in myself and know I will get through. I tried to be strong but, my strength was taken away. I’ll chase my dreams leaving footprints behind. Only a few sweet memories to remind me that I am not alone. In a land of peace only the strongest of seas. Through the storm, I will hold onto hope as my guiding star.

I Was So Easy To Love
The unheard musings of a wounded child. There are scattered pieces of my heart, I can’t deny the pain. I try to hide the hurt, but it's etched in every vein. I wear a smile but, inside I ache. I am broken. I am drowning in despair because I can’t be repaired. I wear my emotions on my sleeve like rain.

The False Prophet
When we can’t find answers within or through guidance we look to a prophet. We ask for help because we believe they are the answer we seek. We see a holy queen but, she can’t see the truth in our eyes where we defy the rules being a rebel, defying norms, because fear is just a concept, shining like a comet.

But Now I feel Alone
Fake people are the worst. Those who pretend to be your friends but, don’t stick around during hard times when you need them to comfort you. They try to manipulate you with bribes. “ I will do a favor for you ONLY if you do this in return”. I gave my heart, but you left it to burn. I trusted you but, you left me hurt with your lies. You are nothing but a thief, you’re killing me inside. You don’t know what you’ve done to me you can’t even give me a helping hand. How would you feel You left me broken aching inside from your betrayals. Fake people smile and pretend to like you but, don’t have your best interests in mind. You have played your games and dealt a sly hand. I saw your vision alone around me once more I could not stand. Envision me if you do you’ll never change yourself.

With Someone To Love Me
Fall Is in the air. The winds of change is everywhere. In this world so vast, I’ll find love’s fresh air. Soon I will be watching colorful leaves falling down. However, I am at despair because I don’t want summer to end. Though I will not leave it all behind. I am out for the weekend my heart is on the run and I am not alone. I am still drinking my margarita while people are obsessed with pumpkin spice. We are approaching Octoberfest with beer festivals and haunted houses but, I got that summertime sadness. I will suffer when the days are over. I missed out on the beach. I dream of sunlight on my skin, a taste of paradise. Lost in this madness. I got a pocket full of regrets and bad times. I don’t think I can take it anymore but, I will not leave my front door. Nights are getting colder. Time to warm up by the fireplace. It is cuddle season. I’ll find my way out of this loneliness, I’m bolder. In the darkness, I am reaching out for a shoulder. I am searching for love not just a cuffing season. I want a deep affection that can not be broken. I will pray that you are here to stay. In this embrace, my heart finds solace. Floating on a cloud, my hope takes flight. I close my eyes and sleep in memories by night.

One impulse reality has the power to move itself has you are unplugged. Escaping the gloom, I soar into this fresh, new atmosphere. Right now, I can see the winds of change that will blow my mind of lies. I have found the relief where I can travel to a place I can be.

Embrace the rush, let excitement flow through all your possibilities. The time has come to step into another dimension where you control your own story. Jump into the unknown, harness your glory.

A Double Edged Sword
A double edged sword is sharp enough like a knife. The knife will cut you in two. Between the broken faith and an enemy and a friend. Knowing that I gave you everything. My heart is bruised, because it’s not the kind of love where you’d make a friend who would do anything to tear you down. Feeling loves sharp lies, you are a two timer like a double edged sword. The promises you’ve made are not the ones you should have stopped. It's not the kind of tricks but all you put on are the ones that make you wear them gloves. I know it hurts but you make it seem you think of us wearing a disguise. Betrayal is the only thing you have ever loved. But please this game is not the way that you have been mine. I stumble as you feel confused because I am removed. The knife stabs you in the back like a friend. You are paralyzed by fear, unable to make a move. Beneath the surface, the wounds hurt more than a cut. Emotions sneak up on you, leaving scars unlike knifes. Scars are not the kind of friends you used to trust. My heart is crushed with disgust afraid to love but, brokenness I must adjust. Scars will never heal unless you do. However, I know forgiveness isn’t good enough for you.

Back to Nature
Nature is beautiful. We don’t take enough time to pause and reflect. Drowning in memories, searching for a way to reconnect. The more I look at the earth. I live my life for what it's worth.Whispering echoes, longing to resurrect. And taste the sweet taste of the grapes of the vine. Sailing on waves of desire, losing touch with human nature. I'm searching for a way to escape. I do whatever it takes. Let's mend our mistakes and make new memories together. I'm trapped in a city, longing for the countryside's pure nature. In the chaos of city life, I crave nature’s nurture. And feel the warmth of the sun. Lost in the crowd, I'm yearning for peace. Adventures await, let's embrace the wild beauty of nature. Inhale the air in the air and at the core of reason. Chasing dreams, I follow my heart with every season. And I want to run to nature. In the depths of longing, I'll dance through the rain. I’ll let the drops wash away the pain. And my feet won’t touch the ground. Through the storm, my dreams take flight, never looking down. I'll find my solace in the greenery of mother nature.

I Won’t Be Your Victim
Texting leads to miscommunication Drowning in a sea, all these emotions are just a complication. I’m running out of time. Taking chances, my heart yearns for your response. I am reaching out, hoping you’ll hold my hand. Hanging by a thread. Feeling highs and lows, can’t escape this emotional spread because I hear your voice in my head. Lost in this haze between day and night, facing my own veneration. I feel rearranged picked from the front to the back. I need to find a way to leave this selfish trap. However, I feel like I need texting as a crutch to break the pieces of the world where I stand. Words of jargon that are meaningless. Why are we so blind to see? Captivated by your charm and tender affection. In this maze of emotions, craving your sweet connection. You are the only one who can rescue me. You set my heart free, like a melody that's meant to be.

The Puzzle of Life
The puzzle of life is a mystery yet to be solved. A great vortex of infinite psalms the more will be resolved. No one knows why it exists under the weight of the world. I see the world through different eyes.I dive into the depths, where happiness and sorrow collide. Searching for a way to get me out of my mind
