Premium Membera matched set

He is boorish, churlish, an overbearing lout
my old maiden aunt introduced him all about
he’s my man, she announced, with a giddy shout
they are a matched set, I have no doubt

Premium MemberOne set of footprints

There are times in my grieving journey
that I am reminded of the love of God
as he holds me close and carries me
through this very hard journey

He puts people in my path specifically to
help me, I wholeheartedly believe
He prompts people to check on me,
when I am not ok, so I have a friend to lean on

He

Blessings, Hugs, Love and Light.

May Hope and Faith set you free
By Michelle Morris
29/06/2025

You read a poem about the Good Bones
And I could feel your sadness
Those words about unkind people
How the World was filled with madness

But even if there's just one
One little Light in the Dark
It can create a ripple
Ignite

Playful Scene

Act one had just begun
on the day we met
how was I to know the die was cast
and the stage was set

Act two what was I to do
when you stole my soul
who'd have guessed the part was mine
and I would play a leading role

Act three now you're with me
I put my heart into all I do
should

Set Me Free

Set me free to love again—
You’re holding me much too tight.
And if you won’t turn me loose,
I think I’ll lose my mind.

Because you don’t really love me,
But you hold me anyway.
You refuse to set me free—
Just something that you own.

I’ll try again later.
Some other day, perhaps.
Right now I’m much too tired,
And don’t feel all that

Premium Membermy wild west came in on a tv set

Marshall Dillon in Gunsmoke
Clint Eastwood as Rowdy Yates in Rawhide
Paladin Have Gun will Travel
John Wayne in bunches of westerns
the pattern was easy....
The cowboys always win
Hero wears a light hat
Villain is stuck with black hat
Indians never win
TV in the 60’s gave me new terms
Dance hall girl, sage brush, wagon train
I reminisce about the wild west I

I can hold out for upcoming mental health therapy until Wednesday at 1:00 p.m.

Yes, and you (like I) will probably presume me deservedly cursed for flagrante delicto years ago.

After I experienced the following catastrophe (written in my freestyle poetry), you won't be surprised that taking an overdose of one or more

Premium MemberTo speak the truth in a world woven with lies is to set yourself on fire like a torch

To speak the truth in a world woven with lies is to set yourself on fire like a torch,
Just to prove you were never made of wax melted under absent gazes,
They praise polite silence, mute nods, and false smiles that hide the void,
But they tremble when your words come unfiltered, sharp, soaked in everything they

SET BACK TO GET BACK 2025

**"Set Back to the Get Back"**

Some people agree, while others disagree; it’s hard to please everyone I see. Do you disagree? Some want me to feel their pain, demanding sympathy without offering any in return. How can they prevail? It’s hard to believe I was once just like them. It’s called “The Set Back to

Premium MemberJust set me free

All I have to do 
to keep loving you 
is to play that game 
like you always do.

You hide your love 
cause you were hurt before,
so you measure our love 
like a game to score.

You stood by my side 
till you took me for a ride 
I couldn't have imagined it so,
You told me that

Premium MemberOne day, love will set, suffocated by the hatred that begs for mercy

One day, love will set, suffocated by the hatred that begs for mercy,
Drops of tears of regret will flow, guilty it will forever remain,
Because it was alive, because it was always there,
Because it held hearts in its palms with the utmost care,
Its whole life was a silent service, a dance of conquered freedoms,
Battles fought with
