"Life Committed"


Life is not the easiest thing to commit to
It has its moments that test you
Bend you...
Yet, you do not break
You survive
Because deep down you know that giving up only seems easy
Because its surrendering
You remind yourself to be stronger than hate
Looking back often brings you back
To the beginning of a moment
Personal safety should not be an option
And one should not view it as such
We are all creatures of habit
But when said habit denies us human connection, respect, friendship or love
Its time for a moment of pause, reflection and decision
Live your true truth
Be not afraid to ask or say the words, “I need a friend”
Fight sad tears with laughter
And laugh until you are in tears of happiness
Simply be the best you
Remembering that people may forget what you said
And what you did to help them out
But people will never forget how you made them feel
So lead with best intentions
Love
Friendship
Hope
And faith
As you lay down your foot prints upon life
And exist.

"Art of Emotion"


Lines of gray
Faded
Shaded
Bold
Connection links together a vision with creativity
An unseen muse
Art in the making
Sculpted by thought
By emotion
With subtle curves
Sharp corners
Twists and bends
Life is added
Details perfected
Lines become fluid
Finding the balance between darkness and light
To keep treasured
Or forever erased
Are all thoughts in motion
All upon the tip of a pencil.
