Premium MemberWhere Nothing Happens

here, between myself and myself,
God dwells when 
He flees the world.
I found Him once
in a forgotten loaf of bread 
on the steps of a hospice,
in an old woman asking forgiveness
for simply living.

He did not ask who I am.
He touched my brow
and retreated back into the wound.

we do not think.
we defend ourselves from thoughts
as from a

This is what happens when I've you more


I’ve run into this truth three times now
I know I’m hard to love.
But every I love you I ever gave
Was carved from the depths of my soul.

It wasn’t light.
It wasn’t fleeting.
It was real.
And it hurt.

Reading old messages,
Seeing your name,
Thinking of being with you—
It tears through me
Like love turned blade.
Each memory driving it deeper.

It got unbearable.
Not

life has it happens

LIFE AS IT HAPPENS
BAD THINGS HAPPEN AT THE MOST INOPPORTUNE TIME.
WE CALL IT MURPHY'S LAW, BAD LUCK, EVEN KARMA.
GOOD THINGS HAPPEN, AND WE REFER TO IT AS SERENDIPITY,
MIRACLES OR A FORTUNATE EVENT.
BE IN THE MOMENT AND EMBRACE THE DAY AS IT COMES.
YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT GOD WILL SURPRISE YOU WITH.

Premium MemberDon't You Hate When This Happens

     A burr stuck smack-dab in the back
     of his white tuxedo
     Everyone pointing at it
     He couldn’t quite reach it though 

     Balked at removing his tux

Premium MemberWhen Something Special Happens again, and again, finally

We said goodbye to August, 2015, and in that year we shared
The day we met, our futures set, in unison we're declared

That Christmas came and went, knowing we'd share it soon
Eight Thousand Miles apart, it felt like we were on the Moon

Twenty Sixteen we've entered, as we work towards that day
The day we chose, June

Premium MemberWhen Something Special Happens again, and again

Now for the long flight home feeling lost in present roam
Reliving our past days, weeks, my minds in wanting comb

Her smile, her charm, her look of warm, inviting adorn
We walked, we talked, but we never baulked our future born

Now eight thousand miles from each other, but, just yesterday
We joked, we laughed, we kissed, we cried,

Premium MemberWhen Something Special Happens again

We were worlds apart, yet when words were selected
Something special happened, and we became elected

We chatted about our families, us in generalisation
Our works, our likes, our wants, to familiarisation

Next thing we knew, I, flight booked, nigh on 8000 miles
Upon landing at 'Ninoy' to be met with hundreds of smiles

McBlimey, I said to myself, is Eloisa

Premium MemberHate Happens

The group you are in did not win
Now your mind begins to unwind
Fear grows for "They" are different
Dangerous and a threat akin
To a fascist re-emergence
The things you hate about the winner
Are the things you fear lie within
So you project onto others
The motives you've repressed as sin
Feeling powerless and ashamed
You lash out hiding from inner pain
Seeking

Life happens

Life happens 
Life is beautiful oh yes it is 
Life is this life is that they say 
But how many are living nowadays 
What is the Cost of our freedom 
Are we born to pay
How can we deal with all this net of debt world wide 
What is the escape root to our global poverty

What Happens, Happens

Written By:  D. Collins 12/24/24



What happens to us will happen to us, alone.
Through every day of our lives, until we're gone.
Each path is different for every one of us.
What happens will be fate, or a stroke of luck.


There'll be times when bad fate rears its ugly head.
That's when we learn that we're so ill-prepared.
We

  Life happens people come, and go, Some are self absorbed,  also people are plain out of touch.. Life happens 

Criticism,  Fears,  Insecurities,  Don't take it personally. Life happens 

Obstacles often may hinder one's journey yet don't lose 
one's self-worth, Keep  uplifting yourself  without anyone's 
approval.  Life

Love Happens

Scribbling in my writer's cafe,
Love happens along our way,
It's a keyboard pixie society,
You're a charming man,
Disarming, you can,
Cannot measure bliss,
"No Spring chicken, miss!"
Specks in vast universe, 
Lovers love this verse,
Plan our pleasure today,
Love happens along the way.
