Mixed Emotions
It happened at the wrong time
But what happened was beautiful
I denied it for a long while 
Never wanted to fall victim to it
But when I realized what it was
I never wanted to let go of it
It made me feel whole again
It made me want to...

Mixed Emotions
Today is my Birthday
I should be okay

But, 3 years ago you went away
Being my Dad I wanted you to stay,

It is Happy and Sad on this day
Now you are gone what can I say,

I smile and tell myself I'm okay
But, deep inside I am in...

Where  is here?
I feel their emotions burdening the ATMOSPHERE.
I am spinning in it.
Thicker than mud.
Was it BRICK COSTUD?
What were the emotions of the people surrounding me?
Some were in heated denial.  
Who else would suppress a smile?
BAM!!  DAMN!! 
Noxious  city air as...

MIXED EMOTIONS

Mother deserved every bit of my love
She was my first love
She was the love of my teenage years.

I lived without the love I loved
High atop the stairs I sat, waiting
Torn between poverty and pseudo power.

Did you not know love grows?
A single flower blooms on...

Mixed Emotions
I'm stuck and tired, i don't know what to do 
keeping my thoughts inside, until i can share them with you 
bored and alone with nothing but bad intentions
sick and scared of all the same reflections
so afraid, anxious of what been boxed up to say...

Mixed Emotions
As the days go by 
I wonder why
I'm sitting here alone
not answering my phone
I walk along the river 
and then I shiver
I kneel along my bed
praying for those who might be dead
I'm bathed in sunlight
and I feel so bright...

Mixed Emotions

I'm having mixed emotions...
Should I stay or should I go?
I want so much to predict the future, but only God knows.

This is such a big decision...
If I stay we may be unstable, but if I go there'd be so much missin'.
I'm so into this,...

Mixed Emotions
Closing in on me like a room without a light
Bearing down like the sun on my skin
It tears away at me like anforgettable lyric
Skiing on the edge of the truth and a lie
Have you heard of it, you probable have, 
It's despair, what a a...

Mixed Emotions
Mixed emotions are running deep
every night i cannot sleep.
i look back....
what went so wrong?
you haven't seen me
in so d*mn long.
we used to talk everyday
and you made everything feel ok. 
but now you feel so far away
i cry about this every day....

As we visited our youngest grandson in his first year of college…a college close to the ocean…I must admit…the two of us…were filled with mixed emotions.

Our minds were happy seeing he’s grown into a fine young man…more confident and stronger…while our hearts were a little...

Leaving family home, grief, a loved one lost 
Reasons differ as life deals its cards, 
Accept and hold close to your heart 
Never show a single card, decisions await. 

Leave your home for greener pastures 
Some gates are locked warning trespassers, 
Mothers and Fathers pass...

Mixed Emotions
Without you I can't get to where I need to go,

Everything is fast for others

But to me it's slow,

Money needs to be made,

Bills need to be paid,

Focus on your daughter's education for her to get better grades,

Get along with the mother for your daughter's sake,

But...

Football Mania 2018
World Cup - 2018
Football season
Football fever
Glued to the television

Moments of anxiety
Nail biting
Edge chair sitting
Cussing the players, the referee
Despair, heart wrenching, disappointment

Then

Screaming, shouting... G O A LLLL!!!
Pandemonium, jumping, dancing, 
Pans knocking, horns blowing
Hilarious with joy

My team won

Ouch!

Silence
Sad face, tears, disbelief, anger, mixed emotions

My team lost

Football season
Football...
