The Traffic Moves On, So Do I
The Traffic Moves On, So Do I
I
Stuck on the road full of a heavy traffic
Inch by inch , no movements are automatic
Drivers do rant, shouting their personal tactic
Someone says “hey, go ahead.. damn pathetic”
II
That loud voices echoed in my ears
Recognize voices who caused my unstoppable tears
The pain of betrayal that brings back my fears
And carry

Moving Forward
At times this may be hard to do but must be done
It may be easier to do after considering a fight won
When it comes to moving forward the battle is within
You know your destination and where you have been
Doing this will require putting the past behind you
Forgetting about everything you see in your rearview
These

Forward To The Past
As their twinkle
(starshine)
takes time travel from the past
and light years
(90 billion)
to arrive across a void so vast
altho' we've been to the Moon
(and back)
Venus Jupiter and Mars
how can our future lie
not here and now on Earth
but in the planets and the stars?

Forward March
We're all here on a journey
With only one way to go
FORWARD
That's what I believe
Yes we all do different things
Choose the streets roads
And avenues we take
But going FORWARD
Is mandatory
We make our own decisions in life
But that direction won't change
I'm just sharing what I see
We can resist
We

MOVE ON
My loves we must move on, forward through all the thorns.
Lets work on us, and become strong, and reach for the long dreams we have.
Yes we can, reach for the stars, and live in happiness and bliss forever.
Be clever like a lever, with all your dream in hand, run forward with the

Falling Forward
Just keep walking
The words ringing in his ears
He marches ever onward
Trying to leave the memories behind
Around each new bend
A new start could await
But all he finds is empty promises
Nothing to the fill the void
She left deep inside
Each new path
Every possibility tried
He tries desperately to forget
Not to taint others with her memory
Comparisons aren't fair
To

Fierce Review
"Fierce Review"
Hindsight reviews tells me so much of what I want to keep, change, or completely drop.
My fierce review of my marriage and how my best fell short giving Doug what he earned and deserved… A review only as a widow, not as a divorcee, or in the middle of a dying marriage.
This was

Falling Forward
I divorced the sky, once too heavy,
Each cloud a promise I couldn’t trust—
I watched it tear apart, not softly,
But with a thunderous, elegant thrust.
I unbuttoned the stars from my chest,
Left the moon dangling, bruised and cold,
And learned the art of quiet rage,
Sinking into the earth, finally bold.
I divorced the mirror, once my friend,
Told it, "You

Time Marches On
Time Marches Forward
Our relationship is done
we can no longer continue.
The hands of time have
stopped for us.
It is too late to turn
back the clock.
For a while we had
great fun.
But the ticking clock
marked the denouement
of our time together.

Backward is forward
Wake
The ever present enemy
Overbearing and oppressively
Shadowing expectantly
As forethought always secondly
Two minds hang suspended be
Interrupting thoughtlessly
Relentless and attentively
Aressting so effectively
Contented is left restlessly
Thrashed into docility
Numbing the auxiliary
Concerning such complacency
Overwhelming this tranquillity
Resolute in the obscurity
Abstracting absurdity
With Orchestrated entropy
Worn out by pacificity
Sleep
