Dear Self,
The world is small, they say. I am but an ant in a jungle of bushes --- with eyes but couldn't see. Guided by the smell of faith, I followed the thread to nowhere. Where this heart would lead? I don't know... Pursuing the unknown, hoping this journey will end me where my soul can peacefully rest.
Yours,
Mixie21

I wouldn’t have looked at her twice if she hadn’t smiled at me first. She wasn’t your typical pretty or the other Disney character who is completely a misfit and happy about it. But she had a quality I couldn’t place my finger on and I guess that’s all that made the difference.

We're all haunted by the people we couldn't save

"Loss, I’ve had some. None I couldn’t recover from." from the poem "Loss" by Max Burchett

In today's world even God couldn't compete with the strength of money...... Not only good people but also the God is suffering for the lacunas in its creation

|
I carried that notion,
lost sight of the shore and
my sailing ship had no wind,
my sincere apologies I couldn't swim in that ocean.

you couldn't even lie if you were in a bed

“She was lost. Torn between what to do. I saw it clearly in her eyes as she stared at me. I wanted to tell her to let go and be with me even if it was just one night but I couldn’t. One night wasn’t enough.”

I thought i was a writer until i met those who never wrote a line but kept many books in their hearts to their graves, then this pen grew ears, eyes and voices but i couldn't write still.

You're so dumb, you've got to be twins! One person couldn't be that stupid!

My grandfather fled for his life,
Came ro America qnd took a wife.
Couldn't handle the pressure kept up drama and strife.
So he ran away giving up his name and birth rights

|
He rode his cancer to the last stop~
Sadden, as tads of gloom found his crop~
Still he skipped like toads to end on top~
The frogs inward taking their last hop~
With pails of treatment, prayer, and mop~
One last ditched effort came to a drop~
Pardon that dark day, upon raindrop~
As the frogs croaking couldnt be lop~

|
I remember back when you couldn't stand me, nothing's changed

|
I couldn't decide what to wear.. so i went back to bed

|
With my luck .....I'd be a fish that couldn't swim

When I was very young, I learned how to tie my shoes in a tight double knot, but I couldn't untie them. I tried and tried but to no avail. I was stubborn and didn't want to ask for help, but eventually, I had to ask my Mom or Dad to help me. And they did. It makes you wonder, who will untie the hard knots that humanity's responsible for?

|
It would be strange if people could change you for the worse when you couldn't change 'em for the good !!

"If stars are nothing but the people who leave this world, then we two would be the shiniest and the closest stars ever because if the earth couldn't keep us apart, how would the sky?"

p.s. your love is the butterfly I couldn't catch...

|
If I put you in a sandbox
you couldn't dig deep enough
to find cat shit.

I have a big family that loves me. Want to know how I know that? Because I extend that invitation to my closest friends. People often say that if someone isn't blood related, they aren't truly family..and that's where they are wrong. Family is anyone you truly love and would do most anything for, no matter what. The word 'Family' is a word reserved for the people who you couldnt bear to lose at any given point in time. Blood relations only tells us who our ancestors are... not who our family is.

|
I never trusted anyone who told me, I couldn't.

|
I never believed anyone who told me, I couldn't.

|
Who said you couldn't?
