In the mirror's gaze, a reflection stares
A soul so worthy, yet often unaware
Of the love that's needed, the care that's true
The acceptance that starts with "I love you"
Embrace your flaws, your quirks, your grace
Your strengths and weaknesses, your every trace
Love the lines that tell your story so far
Love the heart that beats, the soul that shines like a star
In a world that criticizes, compares, and judges too
Remember to be kind, to yourself, anew
For you are enough, just as you are
A unique masterpiece, beyond compare
So let the love you seek, begin with you
Embrace your worth, your beauty, your truth
Make sure you love you, with all your heart
And you'll find that love will never depart.
Pain
Tears
Hope
And desperation
An emotional piece of rag
That's what I've become
Tears splash down on my books
I smear my neatly written
physics notes
Down on my table
I put my head slowly
I hear those little voices
"You can do better" they say
"But how do I get
myself out of this mess?" I ask
The voices don't answer back
Screaming inside
I let out a meek little sigh
Again,
trying to swim against
the rough sea of agony,
my voice seething in anger,
I call,
"Care to answer back?"
Then oh,
I see my carefree,
careless self
look at me in wonder.
She calls out teasingly
"Is this really you?
My girl's become serious"
Breaking the restraint,
my lips twitch
revealing that little smile
dancing on my lips.
You see,
I do love this life of mine;
a bittersweet delight
Dreams,
little rays of hope,
tear strained pages
of those
tiresome physics problems
call me
to make sure
all of it
was not in vain
When someone you're close to and love dies, it doesn't get better with time.
That love solidifys and rots in the center of your heart. That rotting unforgettable love turns to pain like acid from a spent core.
It eats up all the remaining parts and leaves a tarnished rigid exterior that has no pity or shame the only thing that classifies as human is blood running through the veins...
No interest in rivalries or playing of games.
Just eternal black sunshine every day's filled with rain.
Where did the splendor and happiness go?!
It was here I remember but now filled with questions to answers nobody knows.
For sake of the memory I must be strong and give it all that I've got.
For honor of a sacred bond that comes to life in each thought.
I'll never stop loving you not one lesson forgot.
You're my best friend forever I'll see you someday save a spot.....
The true wings are
not the ones that fly...
But the ones that carry us
afar...
They are not of feathers,
are not of bones,
nor of cartilage ones...
Nor aluminum ones,
neither magnesium...
the ones that actually fly
we don't sight, but we employ...
They are dream wings... !
Looked in the lobster tank
Could not bear thinking
of them possibly boiling a mother
I said please choose a he
I wondered if it would be like a hot tub
at first cozy and relaxing,
i felt sorry for my shrimp
and yet i love the taste
I used to go to the shop
The same as you
But it was not what I used to do
As shops are now for the few
So I will leave them to you
In the hope you make it through
So make sure that you do
DAMO x
Make sure you...
Live your life to the full
To love each day and the night time to
Like you would maybe love a jewel
Our life on this earth does not last
It burns up so very fast
From that very first breath we took
Until we take our very last
Family for me must always come first
Both yours and mine and planet earths
Nature, nurture, safeguard the future
As life they say is short and sweet
So make sure that you complete
Living your life to the very end
And make sure to include your friends
As well as those you have never met
So where do we all go from here
Well we will find out I fear
The reason that we were put here
Some say religion I say no
As for me I hope I know
That we are not all alone
As Genesis tells us so
That God created us all in his image?
But who is God and whats his mischief
As the planet is dying
So are we alone the culprits?
If we are then I believe
That you and me and humanity
With mother nature and the human spirit
May just find a way to fix it
How deep is your Love?

Madam Make Sure
Madam make sure you do not fall over the dam,
And at times be quiet and should up do clam;
Then always try to end up having a big thirst
For writing the most poems and ending up first.
At times, we were known to become slap happy;
Illon was the last part of name starting with pappy;
And they thought that a spell I had been under
After rain falls during the lightening and thunder.
On the floor a baby crawls and then out calls,
Down steps people do and over dam water falls;
We saw sweet girls wearing their mother's pearls
Dancing all around swiftly with a sundry swirls.
You may soon start seeing bright, silvery light,
Projecting from the moon throughout long night;
Then I constantly was caught in a crescendo,
Of intensity though immolating an innuendo.
Christmas always occurs in all of the December's,
When in fireplace can see glowing tender embers;
Of course for every down there is an up
And in fields you may find many buttercup's.

Make Sure Seat Reserved
For skies to be friendly,
Should be old and spindly;
One day body is preserved,
So make sure seat is reserved;
Or friendly, sky may not find to be.
That guy was 69 years old.
Will the case rest after his
head hit the head rest?

If you are ever feeling blue,
Whatever you did or had done to you,
Whatever you saw you wish to un-see,
...Please make sure you come to me.
If you’re happy and feeling full of joy,
Before life happens and that feeling is destroyed,
I hope you know where you should be,
...Please make sure you come to me.
If your hearts been broken by who once was your lover,
Do not hide away, let yourself recover
If you’re sinking fast and need a pulse-less sea,
...Please make sure you come to me.
If your mislead by a hope or by a dream
And everything you know is falling through the seams,
If you need someone there that refuses to flea,
... won’t you please make sure you come to me.
Make sure that you vote
Lord when we go to the polls this year.
Show us which one we should vote for, make our choices clear.
There doesn’t seem to be any one who follows the rules.
Father that’s why we ask for your guidance, please give us these tools.
Show us which one you like, which one should we elect?
Which one we should pray for and what to expect.
Our choices are skimpy, I don’t have a clue.
But I know who to turn to, who’s always been true.
The devil has got a foothold but he’s after total control.
He’s wanting to play Your part, but he doesn’t fit the roll.
This coming up election just might be the key to it all.
Either we stand with God or God just might let us fall.
So pray before you vote and seek the Lord for what’s right.
Then follow your wisdom, He’ll give you your plight.
