Piano ballad. Hold on to your hope and your breakthrough.
Breakthrough
(We're all trying)
By Michelle Morris
31/10/2022
There you are
All alone in the park
Sitting on that cold bench
Life passes you by
But all you see
Is the movie in your head
You're second-guessing
Every single step you took
You're wondering
If his confession
Was the only betrayal
In his little black book
Chorus:
We're all trying to find the answers
We're all trying to find the truth
We're all trying to overcome hurt
We're all waiting for a breakthrough
We're all trying to find the love here
We're all trying to find a little warmth
We're all trying to hold on to hope
We're all trying to find Heaven on Earth
(End Chorus)
You've been thinking
About your entire relationship
Wondering if everyone
Knows about his lies
Searching for the clues
That you realise you'll never find
You feel like you were blind
Not seeing the truth each time
You feel like you are lost
Not listening to your soul
You feel like you'll be stuck here
Until the snow falls down on you
Chorus
But look around and see
That the birds still sing
In the trees of this park you know
Feel the love that's there for you
Feel the compass within you
It will guide you through this time
Find your own North Star
A path to call your own
Know that this is just one part
Of a life that you will live
It's the price of admission
That heartbreak will follow you
Chorus
There you are
All alone in the park
Sitting on that cold bench
Life passes you by
Know that this is just one part
Of a life that you will live
It's the price of admission
That heartbreak will follow you
But in time you'll have
Your breakthrough
Hold on to your hope
And your breakthrough
Chorus

Hang ups,
I’ve got plenty of those
Like a phone with
too many busy signals,
I couldn’t get through to you.
I think the number you gave me was out of service.
You said, “Dial me up”
but the damn phone was a push button.
I called long distance,
the operator said
“Put another quarter in.”
Sadly I only had one thin dime. I wonder if I should have called collect?
All along you had my number. You could have,
given me a ring. After-all I was the marrying kind.
It seems my dial tone was slightly out of tune??
I scratched your number out of my little black book. It was time to find another connection.
I could say I don’t remember you, but that would be a lie.
You are the crush that never made it to speed dial.
In a world where the color black is often misunderstood,
Let's shed some light on what's truly good.
Black Friday sales, a shopper's delight,
Financial success on the bottom line, shines bright.
Luxury cars and sleek limousines, easily attract,
But film and stage crews wearing all black don’t distract.
Power, elegance, sophistication in black attire,
Black exudes status, confidence and formality that never tire.
Credit lines and exclusive cards are black,
A little black book, aww… a secret stack.
Black tie dinners, events so grand,
Orange is the New Black, a popular stand.
Karate black belts, symbolize skills honed with might,
Black sand beaches like Santorini’s, a stunning sight.
The Black Panther Party, fighting for human dignity
Black is the color for mystery, unity and solidarity.
Black wedding dresses preceded the white Victorian tradition,
All black cars from Henry Ford's assembly line, a historical rendition.
But amidst the beauty of black, there's also pain,
Darkness, death, grief, evil, and fear that remain.
Understand that black is not wack, it's a color of depth,
To embrace the good, and ignore the rest is inept.
Black pops amid all other hues in a world so vast,
Let's appreciate God’s divine design, and reject misconceptions of the past.
(aka… A Note To A Cheat)
The birds and the bees are down on their knees
The bunnies and kittens are riddled with fleas
The chocolates are melted the flowers are dead
And Cupid’s gold arrow turned out to be lead
Although you once rendered me all of a flutter
You’ve skewered my soul like a hot knife through butter
So, where do you go to get cozy and tender
While I lay alone with my heart in a blender
I long since discarded my rose-tinted specs
So don’t tell me that it’s not love, only sex
Did we not each promise till death us do part
Is that why you hammered a stake through my heart
Well, not anymore: keep your hearts and your flowers
I’ll fret nevermore when you’re missing for hours
To love and to cherish, remember that lie?
Be sure to remember this truth, “Goodbye.”
*
P.S… I’m reclaiming my pride that you took
For you never took… my little black book

Contest: Tell It Like It Is
Sponsor: Mystic Rose Rose
Turquoise tears stain my face
Like violet varicose veins
Stains of sentimental sensuality
Wrapped in white fears and black feathers
For love has fuschia flown away
Ruining reverie’s red roses
Turning them black decomposes
Any ink dried died in letters for love
Would have fell on silver sword
Sacrificed, sliding through heart
Silky bloody poetic death
He saves a cutting of brown hair
And a crimson rose of despair
Pressing between pages of art
Like my onyx broken heart
Was only a notch on burnt belt
Firey from love’s hazing hell
Wicked love spell wilting passion
Kisses rationed refusing
To hold wet tongue’s telling
Of rebelling rose’s rise
In spirit despite demise
Petals of purple pain
Painting passion with rain
And teal tears tangerine train
Of torment trailing behind
Like a wedding dress
Of jilted beauty
Doing duty during dilemmas
Flower to remember
Pressed between pages
Of a little black book
Of love unreturned
Arms out stretched I reach for the sky
and spin like a childs spinning top
as the rain drips into my eyes.
Im set free , Im top of the world.
14 seconds is all that it took .
She had'nt got my x factor, but she had the looks.
To many photo's and paprazzi around.
And no double barrel surname for you to learn.
Ive already been replaced with the next young guy.
I wish him well and lots of luck.
Keeping a princess happy really tough
And I wonder if I have, nicoles number in my little black book.
