"Weight Of Life"

We all hide something deep within us

Sometimes its from others

Or its from ourselves

It may carry a deep truth that we are not ready to hear

Even though we bear the heavy weight upon our shoulders

We endure...

Is it fear that drives us?

Or is it something more

Whether its past or present

Life cannot be avoided

For it is for the living

A decision has to be made

Are you hiding?

Or existing?

"Last Interaction"

Moments have come and passed

The months have been counted

My steps have moved forward

Letting what has been fade into the rear view mirror of life

Change has come

Time has found me here

With strength

And the will of survival

It took me a long time to move passed “us”

Even longer to pick myself up from the place you left me...

Some times we only have one chance to do things right

And when things fail...

A marker is made in history

Never to repeat those feelings and emotions again

We all unfortunately except the love we think we deserve

Rather than what we actually need

We are not perfect people...

Hence why we are always continued works in progress

From love...

To something once treasured...

You are now nothing more than a fellow traveler in life

And honestly, I wish you well

Making this our last interaction

Heed this realization with thought

Take with you the wisdom in these words...

Choices are options...

Making decisions is reality...

Finality...

Life.

"Found Proud"

Though darkness has found you

These are merely moments in time

And they to

Like all moments...

Shall pass

For I believe in you as you do in me

You have the light within you to fight the shadows

Everyone makes mistakes

Sometimes the same ones more than once

But we all learn eventually and move on

And everyone else can hopefully move forward with us

Or they will find themselves part of the past where we no longer live

So be proud of the person I know you to be.

"Matter Of Life"

All in a matter of moments

Everything in life fell

Striking suddenly

As fast as lightening

And as quick as an exhaled breath

Thoughts now stand dark

Years worth of memories stream down your cheek

Tears wash through the ruins of what use to be

Numbing the senses

Stripped bare

The sweetest kiss now rots in your mouth

You pray for your cause

To find the path your feet may take next

Everything is here and now

In this moment of living

Nothing reminds you more of existence than this

That getting the life kicked out of your lungs

Shows them how much they love the sweet taste of air

In hope there is belief

Belief breeds conviction

Fight back against the darkness and shadows 

With the light carried within you

"Heart Beat Reason"

Some days there will be darkness

That does not end with the night

One can only hope that a new dawn will be born upon the horizon of life

So your eyes may see a better view

Let it speak to your heart

Sparking new thoughts

That these difficult times is change disguised in another form

Though weak with weary

Your will is strong

Drawing strength deep from your inner core

From the being that makes you you

Whether you break it up

Add it up

Divide it all

You still have you

And those who support you always

So if there is any doubt of what needs to be done

Or what holds you to this life

Place your hand over your heart

Feel the beat and rhythm

Purpose is held there

And that is all the reason you need.

"Life Existence"

Hopes and prayers

Chances and risks

Time is strange thing

Holding...

Never ending...

Or exists all within a moment

Fear is a beast hard to tame

Limits of the imagination are endless

Hope can be something difficult to keep safe in your embrace

Life is well worth the battle it takes

For on the other side of the negative

Positive awaits

We all deserve happiness

To live within every vibrant moment

Basking within the warmth of the sun
All it takes is chance

As difficult as the moments that have passed have been

The moments ahead are the rest of your life

Choose to exist.

"Active Living"

We are the sum of our choices made

Some done by us

Others for or against us...

What matters the most is how well we rise after well fall

That life does not end after a wrong path taken

Experience good or bad is knowledge gained

Anything done for the betterment of ones self is always worth the effort

And the journey taken

For we are all continued works in progress

Its a life long commitment

Daily moments remind us of this more frequent than enough

So be the change you wish to see within your world

Be active

In life...

In love...

In every single choice made

Bask in the sunshine

Live within the light

For when darkness comes it not only dwells within the night.
