Premium Member He Doesn'T Shhhh Me Anymore

He told me to be quiet each time I tried to speak
knowing I'd obey for he believed I was meek
Months went by and I acquiesced to his wishes
until I had enough and started flinging dishes

"Shhh," he said and placed a vile finger to his lips
I had enough of him and put my hands on my hips
"You can't tell me who to talk to. I'll not be quiet
If you think I'll stand for this, go ahead and try it."

He thought I was joking. Well wasn't he the fool?
I won't be used by any man. I'm not any man's tool
He's buried in the backyard in an unmarked grave
I bet now he knows I wasn't going to be his slave 

Each night I dress in widow's black and take a walk
Mascara running from tears of joy, I give him a talk
I lay a finger against my lips, then I smile and say,
"Shhh, you know it's your fault you had to go away."

Premium Member I Don'T Need You Anymore

You were always close by when I needed you so
I’m really sorry but I have to let you go

You were always there to comfort me
But I don’t need you in my life anymore

I held you so gently in my hands
You were always there to wipe away my tears
 
Sorry I’ve got to drop you so suddenly
You were always there for me in my hour of need

Guess I’m going to have to put my tissue in the bin

Premium Member Open Your Eyes Open Your Mind Say I'M Not Going To Take It Anymore

Do you see What I see?
Dr Fauci says to wear a mask and social distance, it will prevent the spread of the virus. Has it, NO! It is spreading like wild fire. Fauci either is wrong or he's lying or both. I think both!
How do you have martial law, keep people in their homes, destroy businesses, destroy the economy, shut down  state borders, set curfews, destroy childrens education, scare people by bombarding them with the spread of a common cold, by making it look more serious than it really is, confuse  and distract people Do you really think this is all coincidence? Or is it an orchestrated plan to rob us of our Rights and Freedoms and ultimately destroy the freedom of assembly( Six foot Distancing)(Free Speech, they are censoring any truth that goes against their agenda on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter under the guise of hate speech) to hide the real truth of whats going on. So many Traitors to the American people involved. Mostly all your Governors, Politicians, Actors, Athletes, Musicians, Talk show host, Drs so forth and so on. Their agenda is to create so much Chaos that you will do almost anything to have normality back again. That's when they will say we can get back to normal but you have to be vaccinated. So many will take that lethal vaccine. The vaccine as much as it pains me to say this is a depopulation tool that is design to gradually cause our demise through the aid of the 5g towers that are going up around you. They will create virus symptoms and the Powers that be will say the Virus is causing these symptoms of sickness and death, when in reality it is the vaccine and the 5g. Their goal is to depopulate to 500 million. They will continue to say more and more are getting infected and dying to scare you into their trap. Problem(they created, the Virus) Reaction(Spreading, sickness, fear) Solution (The Vaccine) which is their ultimate goal. To add to the madness they will cause severe food shortages, and they will take away your cash. They will clamp down more and gradually take all your rights away. Germany is protesting by the tens of thousands but the Globalist control the media and you don't see it. China is going cashless. All because of the greatest lie told to the American people .

Premium Member Nothing the Same Anymore

I remember that place
in green pastures called home.
But where are you now
“Union Yard, Britton Holm”
Deep in reams of memories
indelible you lay,
reposed at the helm
of a life rushing by.

Guess i’ve played life’s
generation game,
yet somehow you appeared the same!
Misguided my mind
in local pursuit,
when reminded
one does not belong,
the only stranger there was i.

Sometimes I try to tell myself
that life yesteryear was never real,
just a fantasy of one’s youth
the way I use to feel.
“But you are so astute”
No one to change nature’s way
when every step together we retraced,
“Only the human race it seems fluctuates.”

From time to time
the dream awakes, then swiftly abates,
even the memories seem to fall
like autumn leaves
that swirls within the gutter,
when I see urbanization,
spread its wing
like some gigantic woodcutter!

Alas no more the sight
no more the sound
no more the light,
in this life to be found
in that foundation called home,
the last bastion of my folks,
only a memory of love
and a mind at will to evoke!

Premium Member Not Today, Not Anymore -

For 15 years I have tolerated,
calculated, anticipated, sublimated workplace degradations, derisions,
subversions towards my character,
not today, no more,
yes, my pride has become livid, swollen like a bad bruise on the heart
and I apologize not for my self defense & righteous roil,
I will address you as the mean spirited scoundrels that you are,
no more 'boss - employee' boundry, just one human to another,
No fascade & title to prance behind, no longer above reproach from the lesser,
you are now entering the shock of the 'dead-fall' ,

buck you and your low wages, buck you and your perfect policies,
buck you and your work ethic 'mumbo jumbo',
buck you and the lame insults and false criticisms perpetrated 
against my innocence and motivation,
buck you with your attempts to undermine my positive leadership,
buck you and your inconsistent hours
making a God damn yoyo out of me, buck you and your bonuses,
buck you and your preposterous training videos and ridiculous high school uniforms,
buck you and the belittling psychological questionniares connected to your applications,
buck you and your little managerial conclaves
which produce absurd machinations targeting the hourly employees
that make the place profitable,
wipe your cracks with your silly 'write ups' and legal circumspection bull-slit,
I am not your 'bro.' or 'buddy' , and I sure as shout am not your 'honey' ,
not today, not anymore

I will not allow you to treat me as a tool for your benefit,
I will no longer work faster so that you can save money & leave earlier,
you will no longer be permitted to laugh at me without redress,
you are now dealing with a Man, not just another employee number,
don't worry 'boss', I'll continue to work, I'm not gonna 'quit' ,
but I will not work for you, I am going to work with you,
today is a New Day -

J.A.B.  Dedicated to all hard working Men and Women -

Premium Member Country Isn'T Country Anymore

Country isn't country anymore
Every time I listen, I get a little sore
They forgot about the trains
Mama's eyes and summer rains
Daddy's hands and growing pains
Country isn't country anymore
Now they still wear hats and cowboy boots
But they are no longer holding to their roots
They are getting it all wrong
It's just not a country song
We all can't sing along
Country isn't country anymore.
Let me hear Hank sing Your Cheatin' Heart
Kris and Johnny can tear your soul apart
A sad song can make you cry
Drink all night and say goodbye
She's gone, I wonder why
Country isn't country anymore
Patsy, Merle and Waylon are all gone
There's not too many left to carry on
The sound of a steel guitar
Sawdust and a rowdy bar
Where an outlaw is a star
Country isn't country anymore


Premium Member Not a Man Anymore

A tiny Heart pain
and now I'm less than a man
Right side numb Can't write

Premium Member Not Anymore

Sitting on this bed, is large enough
Me to him, hands frantically talking
On paper, he replies: “It’s rough,
I won’t deny. One day you’re walking”.
Angry shrug, hah! Heard it all before.
Those friendly words won’t last:
“Don’t judge yourself by your past
You don’t live there anymore”

This rock, it’s cold, if creeps up spines
It refuses comfort, it’s unforgiving
Writing goodbye in a hundred lines
Past is why future is not worth living
Scared, cold, and lonely to the core
Incomprehensible words, a shadow cast:
“Don’t judge yourself by your past
You don’t live there anymore”

Wind blows my written words away
Language shattered in the wind
In the distance glows the day
In a myriad sparkles and I find
It hard to say: “I want no more”
So I turn around and go back fast
“Don’t judge yourself by your past
You don’t live there anymore”

It came so close, I was so near,
The wheels are squeaking madness
Not wanting death, but living fear
Anger, resentment, sadness.
But in my head the real words tore
And understanding there, at last:
I am done judging by my past
I don’t live there anymore!

My Hard Drive Don'T Drive Anymore

'Your computer just might be at risk'
'There is not enough room on your disk'
Oh yeah? I retort with distain
There's PLENTY of space in my brain!

Premium Member Not A Baby Anymore

Well away in a manger in Bethlehem
A baby was born, son of God and son of man
A sweet sweet baby boy
And he came to bring us joy…. Oh joy to the world….

But he's no baby, not anymore!
He's the warrior king, do anything, God with us forevermore!
No he's not a baby anymore…
You've never known one like Jesus before
Full of love and compassion but also powerful and demon bashin…the death defeater, the great redeemer!
Going into hell to set captives free
The sword in his hand his eyes fiery
Oh no he's not a baby…he's the coming king!
He's Jesus the king

Oh every knee will bow down
In his awesome presence
I laugh that Satan ever thought he had a chance
His name is power, his truth will set us free
His bride is faithfully waiting for the coming King
Yes we still celebrate the day our Lord was born….

But he's no baby, not anymore!
He's the warrior king, do anything, God with us forevermore!
No he's not a baby anymore…
You've never known one like Jesus before
Full of love and compassion but also powerful and demon bashin…the death defeater, the great redeemer!
Going into hell to set captives free
The sword in his hand his eyes fiery
Oh no he's not a baby…he's the coming king!
He's Jesus the king

Jesus the coming king…. We praise your name, king Jesus…king of kings and lord of lords…no not a baby anymore.

My Willie's Not Small Anymore

I once won a lucky drawing
When at the local county fair
I won a small calf of my own
A prize like that, they say is rare

He was so small, I was worried
Will he live or will he not
So I decided to name him Willie
And though small, he ate a lot!

My Willie's not small anymore
He's so big he's hard to pull
And now he weighs four hundred pounds
I think that is a lot of bull!

Nobody Don'T Understand Me Anymore

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because i am not the same person
i use to be because i am somebody
in Christ Jesus.

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because they don't know what i
went through during my trials
and tribulation.

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because i have been wash in the blood
of Jesus and i might not know it all
but my father in heaven loves me anyway.

Nobody don't understand me anymore
because i thank god for renewing my
mind with the word of god and 
fix my heart to loves everybody
that an't right in the kingdom.

Premium Member I am tired now, dear friend, please do not trouble me anymore

I am tired now, dear friend, please do not trouble me anymore,  
How long can someone walk beside you if you keep running from everyone?  
I considered you mine, I followed you at every turn,  
But think, if I stop one day, you’ll find yourself alone, lost in your steps.  

Learn to walk together; this is your chance—not everyone will be like me,  
Someone who stays by your side without complaints, without demands, without asking for anything in return.  
Relationships are not easy; walking together is a fine art,  
Your anger and pride have silently torn apart so many bridges between souls.  

Those who try to stop you are not your enemies; they care for you,  
Before you leave every path behind, listen to those who have remained faithful to you.  
I have understood your pain, but do not lose yourself on this road of loneliness,  
This time will pass; acknowledge the truth before it consumes you.  

I am tired now, but I still stand here for you, watching in silence,  
The choice is yours—will you walk with me, or will you lose yourself too?  
Between us stretches the ocean of decisions, and the waves of truth crash upon the shore,  
It is time to decide, dear friend—where will your heart lead your steps?

He Does Not Love Me Anymore

he does not love me anymore, oh
heart you give me away
the expression of a broken heart
is permenantly fixed
across this face
my eyes
tell stories of the brokenhearted
for thousands of years
I mourn what could of been

he does not love me anymore,
it is such a shame
for my heart gives love away too freely
like a common whore


he does not love me anymore
oh heart, you must decist.
for the deep trench of pain and confusion seems to
fall for an eternity.
Its boundaries unknown to man
I do not wish to explore this pain
for 
I may never return
again

he does not love me anymore
the person I once was is no more.
He does not love me anymore, 
heart, you will make it through.
the shards of it
will
be picked away
gently by time's gentle embrace
for every moment there is it's place

he does not love me anymore.
and that is ok.

Premium Member I Must Open the Door To a Relationship If I Don'T Wanna Be Lonely Anymore-

So shall be a reality;
A kiss from my spirit;
Soul sets a memory;
Spontaneously gathering;
Heart melt together rallying;

Am I searching no;
What am I looking for;
No one to search for
Consciously yearning for;

I MUST OPEN THE DOOR TO A RELATIONSHIP IF I  DON'T WANNA BE LONELY ANYMORE-

No one's for me;
Yet I am instilled happy;
I'm alone, yet not alone;
Looking for no one;

Soul sets a memory;
Spontaneously gathering;
Heart melt together rallying;
Where's that new Godly love for me;
I mean, really?

I MUST OPEN THE DOOR TO A RELATIONSHIP IF I  DON'T WANNA BE LONELY ANYMORE-

I look not for;
I ask not therefore I sheath receive not;
To open a relationship so;
I must first open the door;
