You have said you love me
told me at some point each day,
I love you, we hang together, we
play together, you let me get my way
Had some rough times, even so
through all of it, we stayed together
we worked it out as you know
not always in agreement…
When our day was through we let it go
worked for each other to survive
eat together, sleep, toiled ya know
you promised you would not die or disappear
Then one day you say you are going
on your own way, I say where
“Really“ just like that, leaving somewhere
What is that, what is wrong, what purpose
Dad is mom driving you away, am I
will you be coming back soon, go, why
have you been lying to me, us - Good bye
will you be coming back soon, go, why
have you been lying to me, us - Goodbye
now I’m left to wonder, what could I’ve said
“as I cry”
Puzzling Relationship
Our edges seem so similar
Meant to fit, snuggly together
The tongue of your dry humor
Locks into the Grove of my clever wit
Forming attachments in every aspect of our lives
An image appears of our happy union
Then, as we filled in more and more,
Layer upon layer,
I found pieces that did not fit just so.
I rearranged my shape,
Just a bit, that's okay...
To force the connection that began so easily.
Pull this bit in, push this and fold here,
Until a ***** image forms
It is the appearance of "Us", but off.
Until, we no longer recognize ourselves.
Is it possible to unravel this mess?
Once we tear the pieces apart
Will they ever regain their original shape?
My pieces, unlocked from yours, seem deformed,
Misshapen, wonky.
Who is this Picasso I see in the mirror?
Rush Passed
Don’t see
what is happening,
keep moving.
Don’t look,
you will have to stop.
You always do.
I am not in a hurry,
I want to see.
what exactly the world
has done to me.
I am homeless,
but I had a home.
I am on the streets,
because there is someone else,
in my bed.
I made bad mistakes,
and I am sorry.
Hurry now…
Don’t look.
Keep moving.
Peer at your license.
Remember the faces
of your children.
Try to recall the last words,
your boss said,
as you left?
Why does no one
want to speak,
to the me,
I have become?
The me…
I was…
is so lonely.
Help.
Keep Holding On
In your darkest hours when depression envelopes you,
A torment like you've never before known.
When peace of mind you cannot attain, call upon God's Holy Name,
And remember you are not alone.
Keep Holding On
How can loved ones fail to see when a dear one is slipping away,
To a pit where the soul is terrorized day after day ?
Failing to hear silent cries of a child imprisoned in a demonic land,
That has destroyed tens of thousands in years gone by,
Does no one care or understand?
People marry and divorce not considering how it affects daughter, and son,
While they are busy forging a new life for their selfish selves,
The child's left to find a way in a world of decay sits playing with a loaded gun.
To that desperate victim starving for the love once shared in his home,
I promise true you needn't walk the Valley alone.
Keep Holding On.
Hold on to the truth your Father God loves you more than you can imagine,
Be assured ...Into the winds each fallen tear will be blown,
Trust Him to reveal how you can win the Victory over severe depression,
And remember, You are never alone.
Keep Holding On .
Poem by Joan Donnelly Ellis Sept. 30, 2015 Title by Joseph Tomkiell
You know the virus that disease we call hatred, that kin
we call jealousy it continues to spread that plague, the
prejudice the racism are we all stuck in that prism where
we yell free that convict that deserves to be convicted for
his sentence, but we live in a world, with heroes & villains
and all the heroes have been silenced so we cheer for the
villains, why is it we only fight when it involves grabbing a
gun or a knife but Dr. KING instilled in me that wasn't the
aim of civil rights in today's society where the trend is
being husband & wife but it's far from Holy the divorce
rate is the only thing that lives up to the hype so it's
obvious the media is the hype man that hypes you that
love isn't a issue but it literally rips threw the tissue
because it comes and goes and in a world where men
come & go and all she's left with is the thoughts and
emotions of how she was just exposed and it makes her
feel so low like she just try temporarily sold her soul and
it spreads, that mentality that men ain't this, but as an
employer the one you hire is a representation of what
you desire, so if he's a liar it's obvious you lied to yourself
making excuses for his triflingness was always bad for
your health, we spread hate before love so what's the
cure for that where if it isn't affecting us we ain't looking
back but I heard not being apart of the solution is
problem, and every problem starts with the root, so I
guess the question is how do you find a cure or win this
battle stop this epidemic when not choosing to fight has
caused us to lose
As I look back on those days of Joyful Reckoning,
I shed a tear,
I had a wife once and she was the best thing since pancakes, eggs, and sausage,
But I was a confused man, tormented by fears that I did not understand,
And so I lost her,
But as soon as the sun rises,
My love for her never dies,
I just love her differently,
My 3 queens I used to call them,
For my love for my ex-wife and 2 daughters is a rare thing indeed,
You can let go of a relationship,
You can accept divorce,
But you can’t let go of love,
For love is the fuel of all that is beautiful and wondrous in this realm,
As I look back on those days of Joyful reckoning,
I shed a tear,
I had a wife once, and she was the best thing since pancakes, eggs, and sausage.
But I was a confused man, tormented by fears that I didn’t understand,
And so I lost her,
But her love for me did not die,
And now we are friends who pray for her new family on Wednesdays.
You can let go of a relationship,
You can accept divorce,
But you cannot let go of love,
For love is the fuel of all that is beautiful and wondrous in this realm.
I am a a man of great chaos, for I am berated by shadows that I do not understand.
But in my heart there is great love.
Even God tells me so.
And so I just put one foot in front of the other, one next right thing after one next right thing,
Until the sunshine warms my face with a rainbow beside it.
As I look forward to what awaits me,
I ponder on those coming days of Joyful Reckoning,
And I shed a tear.
You meet them with sparks and a cinematic kiss..
All butterflies screaming, “It doesn’t get better than this!”
You map out forever by date number three..
“I’ve found the one”.. statistically.
The honeymoon phase is a glittering high..
Where flaws wear disguises and red flags wave shy.
They chew kinda loud? Oh, that’s cute, what a trait..
Six months down the track.. “I can’t stand how they ate.”
You post all the selfies, the captions, the glow..
Couple goals for the world’s little facebook show.
But behind all the filters and highlight parade..
There’s cracks in the plaster love carefully made.
Because love isn’t candles and wine every night..
It’s bills, moods, and choosing to not start a fight.
It’s laundry and silence and days that feel flat..
And learning to sit in the weight of all that.
But somewhere along when the magic feels thin..
Instead of rebuilding, we pack it all in.
“Maybe there’s better,” we quietly think..
While pouring wasted years down the emotional sink.
We swipe and we wander, convinced we’ll upgrade..
Like love is a product that slightly delayed.
But every new soulmate starts just like the last..
With fireworks destined to fade just as fast.
So here’s to the lovers who bail when it’s tough.
Who chase the feeling but not the real stuff.
Who fall for the start but not stay for the mess..
Congratulations.. you’ve just met your future Ex.
I never could find the words...
For, I’m a man of fewer words
Than a stone
That’s not how my Heart speaks, though!
For, my Heart sings with hidden fire
(and it chokes
When I try to get out the Words...
'Hic!' My throat catches – it’s the smoke
From my burning heart)
Marina, I loved you once
But I didn’t know Love could be
Cruel, too!
Marina, I love you now,
But I can’t get away from you
Don’t want to
When I try to get out the Words...
That's when something breaks in my chest,
And It’s Too Late!
Then the searing pain...
It locks me in, I know I can’t go back...
I wish I could! Because to lose you Then...
Was the dumbest thing I ever did!
But Now you pull... away!
Your hands dismiss me!
I blew it, then, dismissed you then, and losing you, again's... all I have left...
Break my heart again and again,
Thoughtless words you speak at me,
What you think I want to hear,
Just proving what you fail to see.
Choices you make, love you take,
Spin the words, my fault you say,
Self-destruction, for whose sake?
In the end we all have to pay.
I gave you all I had to give,
Happiness it did not create,
I can see you, I can understand,
It's you that you hate.
You blame this, you blame that,
Nothing can ease your pain,
Lashing out, erecting walls,
Driving me away, in vein.
I will always cherish the life we had,
The time we spent when you were free,
Something changed, for the bad,
I just wish you could see.
If this is what you truly want,
Consider it done,
Enjoy yourself, find that thing,
Go and have some fun.
All I hope is that you remember,
That last embrace under the midnight sun.
The Virgin shall be with a child
Bear a son
Shall name Him Immanuel
Mother Mary was brothed to Joseph
They lived together
She was found with a child through the Holy Spirit
Joseph was a righteous man
Unwilling to expose her to shame
Decided to divorce her quietly
Angel appeared in his dream
Joseph, Do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife
It is through the Holy Spirit that the child has been conceived in her
She will bear a Son
You are to name Him” Jesus”
He will save people from their sin
What the Lord has told the prophet
Behold you shall name Him Emmanuel
Means “God is with us”
