Reach Out Saturday, December 21, 2013 |
All I wanted was for you to reach out
It seemed like a blow
to know
that once I actually stood at that edge
once I had finally decided to let go
I still hoped
that you would
reach out
and bring me back
Careless
Cold
Heartless
or
the fact
that you simply chose to ignore
my cry for help
Waving it away
as if everything would resolve on its own
Indeed
You could have reached out
but you didn't
and that
was my affirmation
that final push
goodbye
PRIDE Saturday, August 16, 2008 |
Pride
Behind the facade of our big egos we constantly do hide
And pride of five letters is only that just pride
And some will even tell you pride comes before a fall
From life we have been learning from before we learned to crawl,
The thing we refer to as pride not easily understood
A little pride is necessary but too much pride not good
Pride can lead to big egos and snobbish self conceit
A truly humble person is one you don't often meet
The self opinionated and self conceited never known to be rare
Those who promote their egos in the bigger World out there
From the seeds of a big ego success is often grown
A humble quiet achiever is one I have not known
A little pride is necessary and self esteem okay
But too much pride can lead to arrogance and that seems sad to say.

I know when to choose to be with you..
You don't know when to choose me than to be with your friends.
I know when to let you give your full attention to your friends..
You don't know when to leave me be when i am with my friends.
When i sulk and and keep silent...sooner or later i will seek you to sort the problem out..
When you sulk and keep silent...you never seek me to sort the problem out.
I know when to joke and take you seriously..
You don't know when to joke and take me seriously.
I know that i love you endlessly
I don't know......
Out of Reach Saturday, May 12, 2007 |
I changed
I’m changing
You changed
You’re changing
It’s over
I’m letting you go too
I had no idea
Why?
When you walked away I felt sad.
I felt empty.
I felt loss.
Only realizing that I still cherished you in my heart
But it was too late.
And right now I just couldn’t;
I can’t
Deal with all this
I have always cherished you…
And there were always things unsaid between us
But I always held you
On this pedestal
Now it is no more.
I’ve loved you
Out of reach
And it’s funny
Because of everyone else involved
How we are all connected
Not just me, not just you.
And how you can’t have what you want
And how this caption flows and goes around in a cycle
It’s funny…
It’s sad…
You blamed me for something I did not know
You expected me to read your heart?
I couldn’t even read mine
And someone else came in and took it away
And you left
You left….
Thinking that I knew what was happening…why it happened…
Foolish…I didn’t….
I do My thing & you do Your thing,
I'm not in this world to live up to Your expectations,
And You're not in this world to live up to Mine,
You are You and I am I,
If by chance we meet,
It's Beautiful,
If not, it can't be helped.....
