I have a cat named Speckle
She has a lot of spots
She rolls around on her belly
She really eats a lot
I have a cat named Speckle
She claws everything she sees
My mom wants to get rid of her
But I want her to never leave
I have a cat named Speckle
She does so many things
She sits around the house
For she knows she is the queen
Too lazy to catch the mouse in the house
She just eats and sleeps a lot
I have a cat named Speckle
That I adore so much!

Extraordinary
I wish to be extraordinary
Like no one was before
I wish to fly higher than an eagle
I wish that in life I will soar
I wish to be unique
Like a rainbow on an uncommon day
In the mist of a fierce hurricane
The fruit on the tree that shall stay
I can only be me
And that's what I plan to do
I can't be anyone else in life
I can't even be you
I have to stand firm in my beliefs
And not drift like a feather on the win
I wish to be extraordinary
And with me that is where I shall begin
Like no one was before
I wish to fly higher than an eagle
I wish that in life I will soar
I wish to be unique
Like a rainbow on an uncommon day
In the mist of a fierce hurricane
The fruit on the tree that shall stay
I can only be me
And that's what I plan to do
I can't be anyone else in life
I can't even be you
I have to stand firm in my beliefs
And not drift like a feather on the win
I wish to be extraordinary
And with me that is where I shall begin

No More
And at that very moment
I felt completely out of breath
My heart was racing fiercely
And my shirt was drenched with sweat
I had a thirst that was so profound
Yet not even a drop of water to drink
A raging inferno burned inside
My flesh grew redder
And then balance left my feet
In my mind I can feel myself twirling
In an endless funnel cloud
My eyes are red and burning
My teeth firmly biting down
I have so much to say
Yet I cannot even speak
I'm bursting from the insides
With anger from your deceit
Your words have really touched me
And this time they touched me to my soul
I'm quivering in the corner....
I can't do this any more......
I want to stay and talk things out
But my emotions are taking over me
I have to walk away from this
I have to start taking care of me
Tears are building up
Water sprouts that I refuse to turn on
I can't let this get the best of me
I have to just move on
Burning with so much emotion
Like a fire of the utmost degree
The unbreakable has finally broken
I let this get the best of me...
The fake smile is there no more
I'm halfway out the door
And inside my head I keep telling myself
I just can't do this anymore
I felt completely out of breath
My heart was racing fiercely
And my shirt was drenched with sweat
I had a thirst that was so profound
Yet not even a drop of water to drink
A raging inferno burned inside
My flesh grew redder
And then balance left my feet
In my mind I can feel myself twirling
In an endless funnel cloud
My eyes are red and burning
My teeth firmly biting down
I have so much to say
Yet I cannot even speak
I'm bursting from the insides
With anger from your deceit
Your words have really touched me
And this time they touched me to my soul
I'm quivering in the corner....
I can't do this any more......
I want to stay and talk things out

The fake smile is there no more
I'm halfway out the door
And inside my head I keep telling myself
I just can't do this anymore

Growing Up
Bills, Bills, Bills!
I pay them every day.....
And as soon as I get my next check
There are even more bills I have to pay!!!
It seems like everything costs these days
Water
Air
And the lights
I don't think I will ever get a break
This just isn't right!!
For many years I thought this would be different
I couldn't wait to be
Be an adult for once in my life
Do what my parents never allowed me
But man, I didn't expect this!!
It's something new everyday!!
Today I have to buy tires for my car
And also get an oil change
The fancy clothes I always wanted
Cost so much in the store
I wish mommy and daddy were here
I'm kinda feeling poor
Everything I want
Are now my actual needs
Because things cost so much in life
That I no longer want for needless things
Bills, Bills, Bills....
That's all I seem to pay...
I guess being an adult
Isn't always great!
I pay them every day.....
And as soon as I get my next check
There are even more bills I have to pay!!!
It seems like everything costs these days
Water
Air
And the lights
I don't think I will ever get a break
This just isn't right!!

Officially Official
I'm Officially Official!
Can't you tell by the look of my shoes?
Or how my stance is firm
Or how I do what I choose?
I'm officially official!
You can tell by my crease
That is ironed in my pant leg
That's confidence that does not speak!
I'm officially official
I always take care of mines
Money is a priority
My business has to thrive
I worked hard for all of this
And so many doubted me
But I'm officially official today
I'm the businessman I always wanted to be!

Dancing Teardrops
My heart started pounding fiercely
And then you danced on my cheek
Accompanied by your friends
You then formed a stream
And how I tried to capture you all
Within the palms of my hands
But instead you seeped right through
And made a stain on my pants
A part of me is now missing
A part that few even know
For I have finally shed those tears
That I held in so long
The Lion's Nose
I stand on the nose of the lion
Who stretches his mouth out to roar
And as I stand here confidently
I honestly fear no more
For what is the use of being afraid
When my fear is what surrounds me?
For I shall stare into the eyes of this culprit
While his belly waits for him to eat
"Sometimes there is no use in being afraid...Look fear in the face and defy it!!!." -Monica Renata
What was I supposed to do?
I was young
What was I supposed to do?
I was learning about math
And simply tying my shoes
When out of no where
I'm approached by a group of three
And I said hello
But then one punched me
And in that instant, I was hurt and afraid
And my mind was still in a constant daze
But what am I to do?
So on the ground is where I stayed
And then they just walked away
They promised they would come the next day
And that promise they kept the very next day
What was I supposed to do?
I was just so dumb and still young too
I let them approach me again and the damage was done
I knew to brace myself for another punch
However, this time they decided to speak
And each word they spoke
Really cut me deep
"You are so ugly!"
"You are nothing at all!"
"Why do you exist!?"
The insults went on
And emotionally broken
I was scared to speak
But what am I to do?
I need to say something
But I'm just a geek
So in that place is where I stayed
And then they just walked away
and I knew they would come back another day....
Because they always come back the very next day..........
Each day I come home
I just try to smile
I can't let you know
Everything that goes down
I get on the Internet
and all I see
Are pictures and statuses written about me
I can't escape this torment!
I can't have my life!
And then I wonder if this is my punishment for all that I didn't do right....
I'm bullied by my peers
They won't let me be
Be anyone at all..
I'm scared to be me....
Nothing I do can ever be right
Each day I am preparing for another fight
I can't shed a tear because one tear will equal more
I can't wait til the weekend!
I can't take any more!
What was I supposed to do?
I was walking out of class and then I heard BOOM!
And on the floor I was down on my knees
Yes, they tripped me, but I pretended I tripped on my own feet
My current life is my personal hell
And soon in the background I hear the bell
I can't wait to spend my weekend at home!
Where no one can taunt me because I'm all alone....
What was I supposed to do?
The bullying continued even after I left school
They passed pictures around
And called me names
Social media really drives me insane
I can't escape this
What am I supposed to do?
I can't tell you what is going on in and out of school
It's just too much!
They won't let me be!
I can't be who I am!
They won't accept me for me!!
Maybe this is my punishment
For all the wrongs in my life
For bothering dad....
For messing up my new bike...
Maybe I wasn't meant to be happy
Maybe I'm not supposed to be in this life
I just don't understand why?
I'm so sorry Mom....
For what I'm about to do.....
But what was I supposed to do??....................

Don't Cry for Me
Please do not cry for me
For I am still there even though you can't see
The tears your eyes try to release
So filled with the agony of the loss of me
I see it all
But this is meant to be
I have lived my life
So let me sleep
But forever let me be a memory in your head
For alive I will be
Even though my body is dead

December
The first snow fell on a December day
Right on a tree branch where it decided to stay
Then soon snow fell more and more
The branch snapped
And the snow then fell to the floor
The icy breeze I feel all around
The numbness in my hands
My rigid smile
Lovely in so many ways
This beautiful December day

Be Thankful
In life we would like to have many things
The fancy cars
The diamond rings
We want want want
And then want more
We get so much stuff
That our house can't fit any more
But in the end
Do you have a masterpiece?
Did you put together what you truly wanted
piece by piece?
You probably have a lot
But it still isn't right
And yet you think of what you want
Each and every night
In life we want many things
Such materialistic people
We sometimes be
We want, want, want
But forget what we need
We forget about kindness
And good deeds
We don't appreciate
That we already have what we need
So stop....
Think about the many things you have..
Be thankful for many things
Stop worrying about the minor things
For the true wonders in life can't be bought with cash
Be thankful for the air you currently breathe
For today someone didn't wake this morning you see
Be thankful for twinkles in your children's eyes
Be thankful that today those eyes will not cry
Be thankful for being the shoes on your feet
They might not be the ones you wanted
But they are yours to keep
Be thankful for the clothes on your back
Because sometimes clothes are what others lack
Be thankful
Be thankful
Be thankful indeed
For you may be something others wish they could be
Be thankful for all the good in your life
Be thankful that today you're alive
In life we would like to have many things
The fancy cars
The diamond rings
We want want want
And then want more
We get so much stuff
That our house can't fit any more
But our houses are already filled...but we can't see
Cause we can't see what we truly needed
Be thankful that your house is filled with love
Be thankful that today is a day you are alive to see...
Be thankful

Fill my cup with Coffee
Can you fill my cup with coffee?
Such a warm and delicious brew
Intoxicated by the aroma
And so fulfilling too
Can you fill my cup with coffee?
I want my cup to be filled to the rim
I want the heat to touch my nose
My soul it shall soothe from within
Filling me up
Filling me up
With happiness in my life
Can you fill my cup with coffee?
For I am happy when you are by my side
Such a warm and delicious brew
Intoxicated by the aroma
And so fulfilling too
Can you fill my cup with coffee?
I want my cup to be filled to the rim
I want the heat to touch my nose
My soul it shall soothe from within
Filling me up
Filling me up
With happiness in my life
Can you fill my cup with coffee?
For I am happy when you are by my side

Breakdown
So much on my plate right now
And I don't know what to do!!!
And every time I turn around
They are giving me more food!!
I'm hungry but I can not eat
Instead I want to scream right now
I'm standing in a traffic filled street
I'm about to have a breakdown
Stresses of life have been piling up
I swear that they touch the sky!!
And it seems like the only solution
Would be to curl up and die
I'm overwhelmed by so many situations
I have so much to say but I can't speak
I feel like I'm standing in the middle
Of thousands of school kids at P.E.
I want to talk to someone
But that someone isn't here
And quite frankly I honestly believe
That they wouldn't want to hear it
I pulling out my hair
Strand by Strand
And I watch each strand hit the ground
My life use to be up, Up, UP
But now it's looking down
Swirling endlessly
Loop by Loop
Going down, Down, DOWN
I can't even hold on to anything to avoid falling
My face is a constant frown
And I'm afraid to voice the words
That I am so scared to speak
But the stresses of life have taken their toll
And have finally gotten to me
And I don't know what to do!!!

Decisions... Just Thoughts
Decisions....
We all make them...whether they are right or wrong it is inevitably our choice.
You decide what will happen in your life!
You decide where you will go!
Sometimes, we think the world is against us. And we also believe that everything that has happened to us is "not our fault" but in actuality if you had the ability to decide then and there if you would go through with something then ....the consequences which you face are your fault. It's all on you... You made this bed... so there you shall lie.
Nobody's perfect. We all make bad choices at times. Some of those bad choices end up haunting us each and every day. It is so great a burden on the mind that you are constantly in a battle with yourself....but hey, you did it to yourself, right?

Get Over It
Trapped on an island
Yet somewhat close to land
I hold my breathe tightly
For I wish to no longer be there
I can see land
But it is not close enough to reach
I am on this island
In the middle of the sea
This has really got me down
I'm feeling kind of alone
I start to chop the trees around
For this place is no longer home
And I want to reach that land ahead
That land that I can see
But even though it is close
It is not close enough to reach
In my sorrows I feel overwhelmed
At times I cannot sleep
I start to put these logs together
And throw them in the sea
And the land that seemed so far away
Gets closer each time
I want to leave this island
For this is my time to shine
As the logs start collecting
They finally create a bridge
And I am marveled by my accomplish
I wonder if I should walk ahead
Leave this island that serves no purpose to me
Cross this ever changing sea
I have to reach this bit of land
That use to be hard to reach
I'm over all of this negativity
I am over this "woe is me"
I have to keep pushing on
I have to be all I want to be
I can't let the negatives hold me back
I have to keep pushing ahead
I have to build a bridge and get over it
For hard times were not meant to last
Yet somewhat close to land
I hold my breathe tightly
For I wish to no longer be there
I can see land
But it is not close enough to reach
I am on this island
In the middle of the sea
This has really got me down
I'm feeling kind of alone
I start to chop the trees around
For this place is no longer home
And I want to reach that land ahead

Confetti Hearts
Strung along the empty room
Falling from the sky
A piece of a love I thought I knew
A love that floated so high
Up higher than the mountain tops
But love so deep as the sea
Today I drop my confetti hearts
For everyone to see
Unparallelled in pureness
It was once a whole that felt
Abandoned by the others
And so like paper, it did tear
And into tiny little pieces
It so did come to be
Tiny confetti hearts
Which use to be a part of me
"When you make someone your everything you give them the ability to take away everything...So be careful who you give your heart to because if you give it completely you are giving that person the ability to break it into tiny pieces....." -Monica Renata
The Winter March
On the cold steps I said goodbye
As the wind blew through my hair
And I felt my tears freeze up
Because of the winter air
And in that moment
I felt my heart sink
Sink to the deepest low it could go
And I knew I wouldn't see you again
Even though I wanted to see you so
As my feet finally moved forward
I tried hard not to cry
And I remember looking into the sky
And screaming "Why God!" in my mind
My hands started getting colder
As I walked closer to the street
I knew this would be my last time following you
This moment is so bittersweet
I walk and walk and walk
And my feet begin to get numb
Just like how I'm feeling emotionally
I can't be warmed by the morning sun
And I look at that nicely dug patch
And I can't even speak
I never imaged that you would leave
Or ever be separated from me
On this cold winter day I said goodbye
As the wind blew through my hair
I tried hard not to cry
I don't want to believe you are in there
I never thought that this would be a day I would ever see
The day you are laying inside your coffin
Resting in eternal sleep
As the wind blew through my hair
And I felt my tears freeze up
Because of the winter air
And in that moment
I felt my heart sink
Sink to the deepest low it could go
And I knew I wouldn't see you again
Even though I wanted to see you so
As my feet finally moved forward
I tried hard not to cry
And I remember looking into the sky
And screaming "Why God!" in my mind
My hands started getting colder
As I walked closer to the street
I knew this would be my last time following you
This moment is so bittersweet
I walk and walk and walk
And my feet begin to get numb
Just like how I'm feeling emotionally
I can't be warmed by the morning sun
And I look at that nicely dug patch
And I can't even speak
I never imaged that you would leave
Or ever be separated from me
On this cold winter day I said goodbye
As the wind blew through my hair
I tried hard not to cry
I don't want to believe you are in there
I never thought that this would be a day I would ever see
The day you are laying inside your coffin

The Snow Queen
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
Just look into my eyes
And finally speak
Say what I am thinking
Say it is me!
For I believe I am like the stars
That glisten up above all
And so rare is a beauty like mines
So speak to me mirror
Don't be shy
Mirror Mirror on the wall
It is I once again
And today I stand tall
With confidence and a bit of conceit
For I want you to speak to me!!
Say what I want you to say RIGHT NOW!
I'm the fairest in the land, and I don't know how
But my beauty is hard to reach
I am the most beautiful girl in all the streets
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
My heart may be black
But I'm pretty on out
And that's what everyone cares about
I'm a mean girl
But no one can see
Physically I am what many others want to be
Beauty unparrelled
And so profound
I am on a high horse and won't come down
For it has been tattooed in my brain
That the only beauty that matters
Is the one that can be seen
So I will let the rotten reside inside
And only showcase the beauty that they can see radiate from outside
"Sometimes we truly forget about the beauty within........And neglecting that beauty can cause much more pain in the end." -Monica Renata
Who is the fairest of them all?
Just look into my eyes
And finally speak
Say what I am thinking
Say it is me!
For I believe I am like the stars
That glisten up above all
And so rare is a beauty like mines
So speak to me mirror
Don't be shy
Mirror Mirror on the wall
It is I once again
And today I stand tall
With confidence and a bit of conceit
For I want you to speak to me!!
Say what I want you to say RIGHT NOW!
I'm the fairest in the land, and I don't know how
But my beauty is hard to reach
I am the most beautiful girl in all the streets
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Who is the fairest of them all?
My heart may be black
But I'm pretty on out
And that's what everyone cares about
I'm a mean girl
But no one can see
Physically I am what many others want to be
Beauty unparrelled
And so profound
I am on a high horse and won't come down
For it has been tattooed in my brain
That the only beauty that matters
Is the one that can be seen
So I will let the rotten reside inside
And only showcase the beauty that they can see radiate from outside
"Sometimes we truly forget about the beauty within........And neglecting that beauty can cause much more pain in the end." -Monica Renata
Brunch
Some call it breakfast
Some call it lunch
I call it food
That I love so much
For I shall never ever see
What the purpose of brunch
Was meant to be
For breakfast occurs when I open my eyes
I head to the kitchen
No matter the time
And I whip up some hash browns and maybe some eggs
And three hours later
I will do the same
But instead of the menu I had before
I will adjust it
Or add some more
And this my friend I will call lunch
For I believe in breakfast and lunch
Combining those meals
Won't be a treat
Because what I love to do
Is eat, Eat, EAT
I have to have my three meals aside
For if they don't happen...
I might die
Some call it breakfast
Some call it lunch
I call it food that I love so much
For I can't combine the two meals you see
And that is why brunch is not for me
Some call it lunch
I call it food
That I love so much
For I shall never ever see
What the purpose of brunch
Was meant to be
For breakfast occurs when I open my eyes
I head to the kitchen
No matter the time
And I whip up some hash browns and maybe some eggs

Flowers Bloom In Winter Too
Flowers bloom in winter too
Throughout all the ice
They make it through
And even though the birds no longer play
I can hear the melodies in my head
The fragrance I can't wait to smell
I hold it closely
I even stare
So beautiful and yet so true
This lovely flower
I thought only bloomed in June
Flowers bloom in winter too
I'm reminded every time I look at you
Even in bad days
You can always see
The beauty that resides in me
Your hugs I yearn for every day
The smell of your flesh
I can never walk away
So beautiful and yet so true
I am no longer a skeptic
For I can now see it too
Flowers bloom in winter too
"Sometimes the greatest love can blossom from the coldest heart...." -Monica Renata
Who Are You?
Once I knew you so well
Like how I knew the back of my hand
I knew the curvature of all your features
I always knew where we stand
But today I am uncertain
For I don't know you anymore
I use to know you so well
Before you walked out of that door
I use to know your every thought
Like Mother Nature knew when it would rain
I could look you in the eyes each day
And know each day you were the same
But today I am uncertain
For I don't know you anymore
I use to know you so well
Before you walked out of that door
Each morning we stand face to face
Yet we both don't know
That although we are so close together
We are more farther than we are close
Our hands always still meet
When we reach out our hands
but this change is something that I have yet to understand
You look in the mirror each day
And prepare yourself for your journey
And each time you walk out the door
You are always in a hurry
You seem to change each and every day
Then you come back to me
And you give me that hard look
Just like you have faced defeat
We are identical in nature
Yet we are worlds apart
I am a part of you
But we differ on some parts
I use to know you so much
I used to know you so well
Before you walked out of that door
It seems like the world has changed you
You are now so cold
You smile in my presence
But I can clearly see
That slowly you are changing
From the person you use to be
"Never let the world change you! Everyone wasn't meant to be like everyone else....." -Monica Renata

You Used To
You used to say you loved me
There were certain things you used to do
You used to make me smile all day
You used to see things through
You used to always smile around me
There were certain things you used to say
You used to always seem so happy
You used to try to see me every day
But my how times have changed
You are not who you used to be
Or perhaps it is I
Maybe I am not the old me
Each second, each minute, each hour that goes by
Which turns into days and then weeks
Seems as though we are slowly realizing
We each are not who we used to be
You used to make me smile all the time
You used to never make me scared
But now when I stare in your eyes
I don't know who resides in there
There is a coldness that has overtaken you
You are but a stranger in my eyes
For you use to be the cause of my happiness
But now you make me cry
There were certain things you used to do
You used to make me smile all day
You used to see things through
You used to always smile around me
There were certain things you used to say
You used to always seem so happy
You used to try to see me every day

But now when I stare in your eyes
I don't know who resides in there
There is a coldness that has overtaken you
You are but a stranger in my eyes
For you use to be the cause of my happiness
But now you make me cry
I'm trying
And in my instance of sorrow
You still stand there
Afraid to open your mouth
And yet you just stare
And I cower in the corner
Cause I can't get through to you
What has made this happen??
Why can't we pull through???
I'm pulling on rope
That only bruises my hand
You are so close
But you are no where near
I want to hold you
I want to cry
But in my instance of sorrow
You are there yet away somehow
I want you to hear me
But you can't hear me
I want you to see me
But you can't see me
I'm trying to get through to you
Trying to open your mind
But you stare blankly
Into the night sky
Just say something
Say something Please!!!
Don't make me leave
I want to stay in your heart
I don't want to leave
But what am I to do
When your world stands still
And I am erased...but yearn for you I still
In my instance of sorrow
You are there
I see us coming to an end
But It's hard to swallow that pill
Just tell me something
Say something now!!!
Because I want to get through to you
But I just don't know how
You still stand there
Afraid to open your mouth
And yet you just stare
And I cower in the corner
Cause I can't get through to you
What has made this happen??
Why can't we pull through???

But It's hard to swallow that pill
Just tell me something
Say something now!!!
Because I want to get through to you
But I just don't know how

Tired
I'm tired of being tired
I'm blind but I can see
I'm hurting but I feel no pain
I'm surrounded by no one but me
Just completely empty
Quite frankly sick of it all
In my loneliness I'm lonely
And when I rise I so do fall
I'm tired of being tired
Tired of sleeping but getting no sleep
I'm complicated like a puzzle
But easy like finding 'sea' in 'seat'
Exhausted yet wide awake
Wide awake but mentally sleep
I'm tired of being tired
I need a bed so I can sleep
I'm blind but I can see
I'm hurting but I feel no pain
I'm surrounded by no one but me
Just completely empty
Quite frankly sick of it all
In my loneliness I'm lonely
And when I rise I so do fall
I'm tired of being tired
Tired of sleeping but getting no sleep
I'm complicated like a puzzle
But easy like finding 'sea' in 'seat'
Exhausted yet wide awake
Wide awake but mentally sleep
I'm tired of being tired
I need a bed so I can sleep
You Promised
When evening comes
And the light in the sky
Slowly fades away
You grab hold of my hand
And tell me softly
This is where I shall stay
A grip that is so tight
Like a nail in a piece of wood
You promise that you will never let go
Even if you could
Through the terrifying things
I see through my life
You stay by my side
You comfort me when I am worried
You tell me not try cry
And just when I think you will let go
Because you are angered with me
You remind me of that promise
That you will never leave
I roam through countless deserts
Get on ships that sail the seas
And your hand still hold mines closely
Keeping the promise you made to me
Through the countless blizzards
Through the endless thunderstorms
You are there for me each day
You won't leave me alone
When evening comes
And the light in the sky
Slowly fades away
You grab hold of my hand
And tell me softly
This is where I shall stay
And although I have doubts at time
You have always seen me through
For you have kept your promise to me
And did exactly what you said you would do
The Conversation
Hey there!!
How are you?
You look beautiful today!
I love the twinkle in your eye
And that smile upon your face!
You seem so refreshed today
Like I have never seen!
Someone must have made you happy
Or you have come to term with things!
So tell me how life's going for you!?
What is new in your life!!
I heard things are changing for the best?
I heard there are new people in your life!
Oh wait
Your smile got bigger
I guess I am somewhat right!!!
Oh...please do tell!!!
This shall be a delight!
Aww that is so great to hear
Awww look at the time
I guess it is my time to go
Until we meet next time
Writing Prompt: Is Love Enough?
Is love enough?
Can love improve the world?
My answer is YES......but.......
Love must be redefined, and if that happens then love may be enough. I think what is wrong with the world is that we misconstrue the true definition of the word 'Love'. We only think about love in the aspect of what truly benefits us. We base the concept of love on how we are feeling at the moment while neglecting the true definition of it.
'Love' is a great feeling of affection
'Affection' is a feeling of fondness
'Fondness' is an affection of liking of something or someone
'Liking' is to have a feeling of regard
Regard is defined as follows: "To consider or think of (someone or something) in a specified way."
And to be quite honest, we only 'REGARD' the things that affect our lives. Which is the problem. We neglect to think about others because they do not think about us. We don't pay attention to issues in the world that do not directly effect us. And that is what is wrong..... Love could solve so many things....However, many of us do not truly understand what love is.......This is just my opinion though.

Peace Be Still
Peace be still my darling
Do not utter a sound
Do not question your surroundings
Do not wonder why or how
Peace be still my darling
Do not run away
For have faith in your abilities
And let the calmness in your heart stay
Through the raging storms of life
Through the fires which burn in the seas
Do not lose faith in yourself
Always just "believe"
Life may not go your way at times
But it doesn't mean life isn't for you
Peace Be Still my darling
For you shall make it through
Do not utter a sound
Do not question your surroundings
Do not wonder why or how
Peace be still my darling
Do not run away
For have faith in your abilities
And let the calmness in your heart stay
Through the raging storms of life
Through the fires which burn in the seas
Do not lose faith in yourself
Always just "believe"
Life may not go your way at times
But it doesn't mean life isn't for you
Peace Be Still my darling
For you shall make it through
The Garden
Such a precious plot of land
Lovely in its own right
Doesn't really have a certain crop
Doesn't really have a certain size
Such a precious plot of land
With soil that is so unique
For it can be dry and lacking water
Then very fertile the next week
Such a precious plot of land
One so chooses to keep
Its greatness depends on the owner
Who holds all the seeds
Of all the things that could be harvested
The owner decides that fate
For they can decide to plant love
Or they can decide to plant hate
The beauty of the garden
Which is actually your mind
You can plant crops that will blossom forever
Or let the weeds overtake your life

How
How am I to trust you
When you clearly don't trust me?
How am I to understand where you are coming from
If you won't let me see?
How am I suppose to confide in you
If you can't talk to me now?
How am I suppose to make you happy
When it seems like I can never make you smile?
I'm trying so hard to trust you
But you don't trust me
I want to see where you are coming from
But you won't let me see
I want to confide in you
But you can't even talk to me now
I want to make you happy
But you won't let me make you smile....
What am I to do
When I want US to be......
I am now constantly wonder
If there will ever be...
A you and me
Getting Rid of the Burden
Riding on your coat tails
Unable to pick up the slack
Consuming all your thoughts
Who knows what comes next
I know this is hard for you
I know you are wondering why
But I promise I won't be a burden
I'm just going to let all of this die
Stress is through the rough right now
Unable to stand on two feet
Can't even hear my heart beat
But somehow it is pounding as we speak
It's just too much for you right now
It's even too much for me
But I will relieve you of this burden
I'm preparing as we speak
Emotions running high
Days and nights I can't sleep
I gotta do what's best for you
I gotta do what's best for me
I know this is hard for you
Because it is definitely hard for me
But this burden has got to go
So don't let tears fall down your cheeks
Unable to pick up the slack
Consuming all your thoughts
Who knows what comes next
I know this is hard for you
I know you are wondering why
But I promise I won't be a burden
I'm just going to let all of this die
Stress is through the rough right now
Unable to stand on two feet
Can't even hear my heart beat
But somehow it is pounding as we speak
It's just too much for you right now
It's even too much for me
But I will relieve you of this burden
I'm preparing as we speak
Emotions running high
Days and nights I can't sleep
I gotta do what's best for you
I gotta do what's best for me
I know this is hard for you
Because it is definitely hard for me
But this burden has got to go
So don't let tears fall down your cheeks
Love Letter
There are words that float around my head
But won't come from my lips
And these words would mean so much to you
But I am afraid to admit
Admit how I feel about you
Admit how you make me feel
I have all these words inside my head
But speaking them sounds too unreal
Instead of speaking endlessly
And being afraid to come in your sight
I will write down all the words I want to say
Words in which you would like
I want you to know that I care about you
That you make me so happy
That every night I think about you
And every time I see you it's like a dream
I want you to know I love to hold your hand
That feeling is so divine
As my fingers slip between your fingers
I know you and I are so right
I want you to know that you make me smile
More than I have ever smiled before
And at times I'm afraid of loving you
Because I haven't loved someone like this before
Of all the words I never speak
That always float in my head
The majority are very positive
And I'm just afraid to say it
So next time I am quite
Don't take it as such a bad thing
There are many things I want to tell you
Yet I am sometimes afraid to speak
And instead of speaking endlessly
I think I might just continue to write
I love you
I love you
I love you
And I know that you and I are so right!!
Krispy Kreme
Sweeter than cake
But brilliant too
I lick my lips
I can't wait to taste you
So soft and yet oh so sweet
Euphoric feelings take over me
Your body I can't wait to taste
Your warmth makes me run to you before it's too late
I close my eyes
And I swallow you
I savor the moment
Until breakfast is through
Oh in the mornings how I think of you
So soft, so sweet, and lightly glazed too
Your bad for my health
But your good for me too
Oh Krispy Kreme donuts
How I so love you
Who Knows
Who knows what tomorrow holds?
Who knows where we will be?
Who knows the depths of the oceans?
Who knows the entire contents of the seas?
No one may know these things
No one may know the truth
But what I do know
Is how I feel for you
I don't know what tomorrow holds
But I wish it was a future with you
I don't know where I will be
But hopefully it's standing next to you
I don't know the depths of the seas
But I know that I love you so deep
I don't know the entire contents of the seas
But I know within you I found me
I know all of these things
I know all of these are my inner truths
But most importantly I know exactly
How I really feel about you

Racing Forward
Heart beats loud
I move my feet
Fear overtaking me
Who knows what the future holds?
I think that I will never know..
Eyes closed shut
My mouth won't react
I am lost and confused
In the corner I sat
Wondering what I am to do
I wonder if it is them I should pursue
My heart beats loud
I move my feet
Fear then starts to overtake me
But I can't let go of what I don't know
So I run into my future
Without my eyes closed
My mouth which was shut
Can now speak
I am lost and confused
But I can't let this be
Move out of the corner
And into the light
I have to be and finally pursue
The person I would like
I have to stop wondering
It is time to pursue
"You can't be the reason that you hold back YOU"
That voice in my head is definitely right
I have to reach my utmost potential
I have to live my LIFE
Short & Sweet
Short and sweet
Like two words in melody
The feeling when you hold my hand
Joyous are the days I am with you
The feeling of two kids playing in sand
To know you is to love you
And loved you is what I did
Short and sweet
Like the two words I spoke
Whenever you asked for my hand

Tug-Of-War
For years I used to enjoy tug-of-war
For I thought it was unique
But after growing older
I found out that the victory wasn't so sweet
I question what is the point
Of bloodying your hands
In hopes of winning a battle
That just pulls you across some land
What are you really winning?
It is just a coarse rope!?
There is no magical thing that happens!
It seems like all a big joke
But now that I am older
Someone wants to play this game
And in my head I'm thinking
They have to be insane
What's the point of trying so hard
To get you on my side
When each time I pull harder
I can feel a piece of you die
And each time that you grip tighter
You kill a piece of me
For I can't go any longer
And a sunnier tomorrow I can't see
We fighting to stay together
Yet we are pulling so hard that we drifting apart
For in this game tug-of-war
It seems we both have lost
For I thought it was unique
But after growing older
I found out that the victory wasn't so sweet
I question what is the point
Of bloodying your hands
In hopes of winning a battle
That just pulls you across some land
What are you really winning?
It is just a coarse rope!?
There is no magical thing that happens!
It seems like all a big joke

And each time that you grip tighter
You kill a piece of me
For I can't go any longer
And a sunnier tomorrow I can't see
We fighting to stay together
Yet we are pulling so hard that we drifting apart
For in this game tug-of-war
It seems we both have lost
Follow
I followed you this morning
I couldn't let you get away
I ventured with you in the sunshine
I also stood with you in the rain
I followed you this evening
As the moon made the night sky bright
Even though my brain told me this was wrong
I knew you would think this was right
I will follow you to the moon and back
I will follow you across the oceans and seas
For I know what makes me happy
And when you are happy I am pleased
Through each unfortunate tomorrow
I will follow you for all time
For I rather follow my heart in life
Than to question my heart "why?"
The Cover Up
Falling down
Rolling on a hill
And then finally touching
The hands of a soul
So broken
So cold
And they won't cease
They keep falling down
Continuously
Creating a stain
Of Emotion it reeks
Surrounded by no one
But pain and grief
Wondering what there is to do
When consumed with guilt
And afraid to face the truth
As these tears roll down my cheeks
They fall in my hand
And they just won't cease
As I Lay
For months I have been here
For months it was the same thing
Family would come to visit me
They would come for my birthday and sing
To be surrounded by these white walls
Which have no sense of soul
I will lay in my bed
As each day I grow old
The sun rises up each morning
And I wake up to watch
I feel the heat come through my window blinds
I'm surprised that it isn't hot
To see the it shine upon my skin
It makes me smile a lot
I shall appreciate this day
For today means a lot
The sun goes down
I watch this too
I then watch the moon and the stars
I gaze into the night sky
I wish I could be among the stars
Oh such marvelous beauty
I never use to appreciate
But its amazing how I appreciate
Every second of this day
As I'm about to take a nap
The nurse comes in the room
She says your family is coming tomorrow
And some are flying in too
I smile and then she leaves the room
But deep down I can see
That everyone is coming to see me tomorrow
Obviously something is happening to me
And as that fear strikes me
I find myself restless and not at ease
and I think of all the things I wish
I would have appreciated then
The smell of fresh cut grass
The autumn change of leaves
The smile on my family faces
The youthful version of me
The happiness...the tears...and the moments too
I took it all for granted
Back then I didn't see things through
For it was the little things in life
That I appreciated the least
But alas I must prepare myself
For my final sleep
For months it was the same thing
Family would come to visit me
They would come for my birthday and sing
To be surrounded by these white walls
Which have no sense of soul
I will lay in my bed
As each day I grow old
The sun rises up each morning
And I wake up to watch
I feel the heat come through my window blinds
I'm surprised that it isn't hot
To see the it shine upon my skin
It makes me smile a lot
I shall appreciate this day
For today means a lot
The sun goes down
I watch this too
I then watch the moon and the stars
I gaze into the night sky
I wish I could be among the stars
Oh such marvelous beauty
I never use to appreciate
But its amazing how I appreciate

Back then I didn't see things through
For it was the little things in life
That I appreciated the least
But alas I must prepare myself
For my final sleep

Again
If I could hear your voice again
If I could hear you speak
My world would turn a bit brighter
And I could fall asleep
If time would stop moving forward
And allowed me to go back
I would hold you tightly in my arms
Then you never would have left
I'm waiting for something that will never come to
I'm waiting for a dream that won't come true
And it's crazy how every little thing reminds me of you...
If I could hear your voice again
That voice that's so unique
But now you are gone
So that will never be
The Housecat
I awaken in my fortress
Yet nothing bothers me
I help myself to my breakfast
And wait for the others to leave
With Mary off to work
And Jim off to go play
I can honestly say
I will have the best of days
First place is the sofa
And next are the shoes
I will feast my paws upon them
And this time I won't lose
I will peep out the windows
At the dogs who are outside
I feel as though I am royalty
I feel like I'm sitting high
Everything is placed out
Just like how I like it to be
Oh the life of a housecat
I'll enjoy this indeed
Yet nothing bothers me
I help myself to my breakfast
And wait for the others to leave
With Mary off to work
And Jim off to go play
I can honestly say
I will have the best of days
First place is the sofa
And next are the shoes
I will feast my paws upon them
And this time I won't lose
I will peep out the windows
At the dogs who are outside
I feel as though I am royalty
I feel like I'm sitting high
Everything is placed out
Just like how I like it to be
Oh the life of a housecat
I'll enjoy this indeed
The Pouring Rain
You left me in the pouring rain
You left me in the thunder
And as the rain touches down on me
My heart can't take this no longer
Just when I think the rain is going to stop
Just when the thunder cease
I see lightning strike against me
And my heart skips a beat
You left me in the pouring rain
You left me in the thunder
And I have to get away
For my heart can't take this any longer
You left me in the thunder
And as the rain touches down on me
My heart can't take this no longer
Just when I think the rain is going to stop
Just when the thunder cease
I see lightning strike against me
And my heart skips a beat
You left me in the pouring rain
You left me in the thunder
And I have to get away
For my heart can't take this any longer

In Your Absence
In your absence
I was able to find
Something else
That catches my eye
It reminds me of me
But yet so unique
It shows me a place
Where I would like to be
In your absence
I was able to see
What you lacked
And what was your greatest feat
And underneath it all
I was shown the truth
The truth that showcased
The real you
In your absence
What did I find?
Something so unique
Something so divine
It has caught my attention
It is so unique
And I think that it
Will finally get me
I was able to find
Something else
That catches my eye
It reminds me of me
But yet so unique
It shows me a place
Where I would like to be
In your absence
I was able to see
What you lacked
And what was your greatest feat
And underneath it all
I was shown the truth
The truth that showcased
The real you
In your absence
What did I find?
Something so unique
Something so divine
It has caught my attention
It is so unique
And I think that it
Will finally get me
The Host
Lurking in the back of my mind
Consuming all my thoughts
Setting up a place to live within
For I have become its host
Questioning my conscience
And always making me doubt
It feeds on my insecurities
It feeds on my inner thoughts
I take one move
And suddenly I am scared to take the next
Cowering in a corner
And wondering what to expect
For I have become its host
And it is not a delight
For fear has taken over
And fear might ruin my life
Consuming all my thoughts
Setting up a place to live within
For I have become its host
Questioning my conscience
And always making me doubt
It feeds on my insecurities
It feeds on my inner thoughts
I take one move
And suddenly I am scared to take the next
Cowering in a corner
And wondering what to expect
For I have become its host
And it is not a delight
For fear has taken over
And fear might ruin my life

Grandma's House
Going back to grandma's house
To see the wonders within
For her place is a beautiful place
That has wonders deep within
I come across some photos
Of when I was but the age of 3
And also some little knick knacks
Which belonged to me
Her house have so many wonders
That remind me of my past
I see pictures of my mom
And also my mom's dad
What a place of so many memories
What a place to be
And it is beautifully surrounded
By two big oak trees
There is a big oven inside
That cooked those big Sunday meals
And also a large attic
That holds the Christmas Tree
Two big rockers sit on the deck
And also a swing underneath the tree
Oh I love to be at Grandma's house
That is the place to be
The Given Gift
Beautiful beginnings
And sometimes tragic ends
Life is a special gift
That everyone was given
So many don't appreciate
So many cannot see
That this gift means so much to others
Including you and me
The essence of the youthful spirit
The wise of the old
Different skills come with age
And with age you gather more
Unwavering faith
The compassion to help those in need
So many have high hopes
So many want to accomplish their dreams
Beautiful beginnings
And sometimes tragic ends
Life is a beautiful gift
Yet so many try to make other's gift end
If only everyone appreciated
And respected others gift
The world would be a better place
Because senseless killing would end
And sometimes tragic ends
Life is a special gift
That everyone was given
So many don't appreciate
So many cannot see
That this gift means so much to others
Including you and me
The essence of the youthful spirit
The wise of the old
Different skills come with age
And with age you gather more
Unwavering faith
The compassion to help those in need
So many have high hopes
So many want to accomplish their dreams
Beautiful beginnings
And sometimes tragic ends
Life is a beautiful gift
Yet so many try to make other's gift end
If only everyone appreciated
And respected others gift
The world would be a better place
Because senseless killing would end
"Life is a gift given to each and every one of us. We have no right to take others gift away"-Monica Renata
The Loveliest of Lovely
The loveliest of lovely
They say it so exist
But the loveliest of lovely
Is never on a list
Who is to say exactly what it is?
Everyone seems to have their own thoughts
Because the loveliest of lovely
Didn't start off lovely from the start
A piece of trash that glitters
Is never considered gold
However, to one they may always want it
To cherish and to hold
The loveliest of lovely
Loved above all things
Have you had your dose of lovely
On this beautiful lovely day??
