A Real Man

That is all.

Closer...

Not where you’re supposed to be
Exactly where I want you
Knowing what you think of me
You’re wondering if I’ll stay true

Sometimes mistrust can rule the day
Create a wall between us
But in our hearts we want to play
And know we truly can trust

We’ll find a way to one another
Closer each day to each other

Closer than the day before
As we both give a little more

I’ll give you what you need from me
I’ll show you what you need to see

You give me what I need from you
Love grows strong as we push through

Less fear, less pride, less doubt, less self
Putting childish ways upon a shelf

To feel your heart is safe and sound
I swear an oath, to you I’m bound.

Tear down the wall
And learn to trust
Our love, a gift to both of us.

That is all.

And another one...

He is going to be here real soon
As soon as I see him I’ll swoon
He is so very fine
I’m so glad he’s mine
We’re planning our wedding next June.

That is all.

and another one...

There once was a man from Waterloo
Who didn't know how to tie his shoe
He tripped and he fell
Down an old moldy well
And ended up all covered in goo

That is all.

Random...

A rubberband
A violin
A homeless man
My my double chin

The clock tick tocks
Can't concentrate
My keyboard locks
I have to wait

Post-it Note
I feel distressed
I'll build a moat
Around my desk

My pen won't work
The cars drive by
That cocky smirk
A buzzing fly

I just sit
And pay attention
Just random shit
I thought I'd mention

That is all.

Wisdom...

I truly believe life is what you make it. We have all been given the wonderful gift of free will and I think our level of contentment is directly related to how we use that gift.
Each day we have the opportunity to make choices. Not just in what we wear, or do that day, but the attitude with which we will face that day.
It is possible to talk yourself into anything. If you focus your energy and attention in a certain direction long enough, eventually your life will go there. And don’t be fooled into thinking that what you absorb through your eyes and ears doesn’t effect you.
Every action begins with a thought. An emotion unchecked. Until we learn to control our thoughts our emotions rule us. Like children. Like big kids. Running around having full grown temper tantrums.
What starts as a pout because life didn’t go the way we wanted can grow into full blown depression as we reflect on how unfair our life has been.
Even legitimate gripes about legitimate issues can get so blown out of proportion because we don’t know how to keep things in prospective.
Am I saying you shouldn’t ever be sad? Of course not. Life is hard, full of disappointment and heartache. The victory comes when you stand up, shake the dirt off and say “I will not let this beat me!!”
Our pride steps in and makes us think that we don’t deserve to be hurt. We foolishly believe that life should be fair. When something bad happens, we fall into a victim mentality that is SO counterproductive not to mention unhealthy.
We’re so dang egocentric. We pout and complain about how life isn’t what we want or expected, but never really take the time to recognize how blessed we are. So selfish. So self absorbed. Me me me me!!! If you’re unhappy try doing something for someone else for a change and stop constantly trying to please yourself.
You become fixated with every decision you’ve ever made. Getting caught in the cycle of regret where we think about all the choices we made and ask “What if…”
Next thing, you’re obsessing about everyone who has ever wronged you, what treatment you didn’t deserve. “I’m a good person, why does this have to happen to me?”
We waste so much time being sad. We lose so much of today worrying about yesterday.
We forfeit so much love being proud and stubborn.
We can make a decision to enjoy life, or we can make a decision to squander it.
And when I say enjoy life, I don’t mean the drinking, sex and partying that so many equate with happiness. Believe it or not, it is possible to get through a weekend sober and still look back knowing you had a great time!!
Having a string of lovers so long you can barely remember their names is NOT living.
Drinking until you can’t stand up is NOT living.
Getting high just to cope with life is NOT living.
It’s bondage.
I found it’s the people who appear to be having the most “fun” who are the most miserable inside. The most lonely and insecure. I used to be surprised by how many people admitted to taking antidepressants, but not anymore.

Life is what you make it. Your happiness and fulfillment is determined by your attitude. Approach life differently and you’ll be surprised how differently life approaches you.
Make a decision. Decide.

That is all.

Love Poem pt 2

I...
I feel...
I feel like...
I feel like laughing.
I feel like falling.
I feel like I'm 4 years old.
I feel like swinging.
I feel like swimming.
I feel like sliding.
I feel like dancing.
I feel like loving.
I feel like crying.
I feel like giving up.
I feel like going on.

I'm going to cry
I'm going to scream
I'm going to dream
I'm going to bleed
I'm going to break
I'm going to die

Like a vapor
Like a shadow
Like a cloud
Like a puff of smoke
Like a grain of sand
Like a blade grass

A babies breath
A single tear
A child's trust
A father's wisdom
A mother's faith

The feather of a dove
The petals of a rose
The brush of your lips
The memory of your touch

My toes curl
My lips pout
My fingers grasp
My limbs ache
My heart breaks

I feel like...
I feel...
I...

but in my dreams...
it's always the same.

That is all.

Love Poem...

Yes, he is my honeybunny.
If I asked, he'd give me money.

I am his Kalolabear.
Doesn't matter what I wear. (Or even if I do my hair.)

He makes me smile when he is silly,
-gives me his coat if I get chilly.

He laughs at my jokes even though they're corny
He turns me on, he makes me horny.

His ways sometimes leave me confused,
But I know my love he won't abuse.

He holds me and I feel complete
I bless the day that we did meet.

Yes, he is mine and I am his.
That is all. (That's how is it.)
