Broken Pieces

Life before love....how did I survive?
Living on the edge and running for my life
looking for something....what I didn't know
people to see and places to go
running on empty....flying high
some nights I danced; some nights I cried
loved some and lost some too
too many bad memories to sober up to
so I stayed “medicated” most of my life
it seems I needed to; to get me through  life
all of my days seem such a blur
I tried not to feel..but when I did it hurt
I know without a doubt my kids saved my life
of all that was wrong....they were what was right
every ounce of strength I had came from their love
then God sent his blessing from above
out of nowhere came my handsome prince
and wouldn't you know....i've been happy ever since
so if this story shows you anything at all
you never know where broken pieces may fall

I Don'T Want To Grow Up

..
Looking back on times when I needed no one....i realize those are the times when I needed someone the most
when I went out on a limb all by myself to prove how tough I was....those are the times when I was most afraid
when I put up my guard because I was afraid of getting hurt....i pushed the people away that loved me the most, and would never hurt me
if there are times that I seem distant...please don't leave me alone,,,these are the times when I am most lonely
If I ever ask you to give me space...make sure that space is big enough for you too; I know for certain, without a doubt that I could not be without you
through all of my soul searching, mind boggling, good and bad times; it appears to me that.........
being an adult means that you can only depend on yourself......that your battles are your own.....feeling loved and respected are luxuries....no truths are said in fear of what “others” might think, and......what you say is not what you mean and what you mean is not what you say.
If I cannot lean on my family and friends in times of need....or....know without a doubt that someone besides me is looking out for me......or.......be loved and respected everyday of my life.....or.....know that honesty is the one thing I can count on.....or......be myself without having to justify who I am......or.....be content and at peace with my life and the decisions I make.....
if I cannot at least hold onto these few things when I cross over and become an adult....then I think its safe to say........I DONT WANT TO GROW UP.....but in reality to grow up is what we all need to do.
Maybe if I do grow up  I'll be kid funny too

Playmate

A little girl with fairy tale dreams; playmates only she can see
spending her time playing like she was big...eating honeysuckles and serving tea
her playmates loved to listen to her talk, she did it very well
she told them all her secrets....she knew they would never tell
a young lady now, her playmates were real
unsure of how she was supposed to feel
nothing ever went her way, she found a way to deal
heartaches and heartbreaks lead her into her grown up life
she attempts to 'for reals” be a mommy and wife
being a mommy is what she was supposed to be
but the little girl in her wanted to be free
she ran and hid, just like before
but her playmates didn't listen to her talk anymore
she talked to herself, but that was no fun
she didn't feel loved by anyone
the little girl didn't want to play for a long long time
her playmate she could not find
she stayed big all the time for a long while
she was mad a lot and she could not even smile
I think somebody said a prayer for that girl for sure
because God sent her a playmate who was big like her
her and her playmate play..... even though they are big
and that big girl smiles like the little girl did

The Fool

Uncertainty haunts me every time it gets a chance.
Creeping around in my mind, waiting on circumstance.
When it does attack, it never comes alone.
Doubt and misery waste no time making themselves at home.
If I could make my mind be quiet, maybe they will go away.
But any sign of disorder, and they will most definatly stay.
They are easy to ignore; until they start tripping around
and playing tricks on my mind.
Just for laughs they convince me to look for things 
that I will never find.
Well this time the joke is on them...I know just what to do.
I will tell the man that loves me what they've done.
Then we'll see who's a fool.

Falling Down

Falling Down

There are times when you may fall
Remember this: you once stood tall
Reflect on the battles you have won
Don't forget how much you've grown
Do not let fear keep you down
Take what is yours and stand your ground
You are stronger now than ever
The devil won't win...no matter how clever
You have God and the love HE gave you
Behind the lies HE is the truth
Keep these things I've said fresh in your mind
Because life gets a little rough sometimes
Just in case you do not know
Falling down has helped you grow

After the Party

No more whiskey; no more pills
No more void to try and fill
No more tears; no more broken heart
No more hitting bottom; no more brand new starts
No more excuses; no poor poor me
No more swimming in a pool of gluttony
No more bad days-with bad nights to follow
No more emptiness; my heart no longer hollow
No more wishing; no more let downs
No more waiting; for whose not around
No more dwelling on my negative past
No more because I found true love at last

Euphoric Bliss

Music in my soul.  Footprints on the ocean beach.
A peaceful easy feeling.  My dreams within my reach.
Euphoria....the one thing that everyone desires.
The most powerful of emotions....that sets your soul on fire.
A sudden rush, or a calming scent; puppy love and your first kiss.
These things only begin to describe the feeling of euphoric bliss.
Your insides shake and tingle, it's a feeling you have never known.
An adrenaline rush that blows your hair back...you are completely zoned.

I Apologize

Loving me is hurting you, I can see it in your eyes.
It breaks my heart the know that I am the reason you are  not alright.
Maybe if I explain to you what I am going through, maybe then loving me won't be hurting you.
I am lonely; and I hate to sleep alone.
There isn't anyone waiting at home for me, so I just stay gone.
When I do the things you think I should, I only miss you more.
Missing you makes me cry; I don't want to cry anymore.
One day feels like eternity,  a minute an entire lifetime.
I don't know who I am anymore; this life, it isn't mine.
It hurts my heart to live this way; living without you.
I am so sorry that loving me hurts you so....I am hurting too.
love me

F--K You

F--k the world
f--k you too
f--k the *****I thought I knew
f--k all that has been, or all that will be
f--k you f--king all
f--k the lie "all for one, and one for all"
f--k it "coming out in the wash"
f--k that good always prevails
f--k being nice to f--king jerks
f--king burn in f--king hell
f--k all the hate and misery
f--k you f--ks who gave it to me
f--k the dreams you f--ks destroyed
f--k my cold, hard heart
f--k all you f--king f--ks who ripped my life apart
f--k who I am supposed to be
f--k everyone and every f--king thing 
for all of eternity
