Part 2...


It’s not about making a lot of noise all the time…
Sometimes, it’s about keeping still and listening to nothing…
And finding the answers one desperately needs…

It’s about Truth ‒ yours and mine…
And Lies…
Confronting them…
And turning them around…
Saying you’re sorry and meaning it…

It’s about going to sleep at night with a Vision…
And waking up in the morning with a Plan…

It’s not about giving up -
That’s the easy thing to do…
It’s okay to pull back…
To re-evaluate…
To start again…
But giving up…
Is not an option…
I repeat ‒ NOT.

It’s about Crying...
Screaming...
Exercising the demons out…
Confronting them…
And lining them up in front of you…
And kicking their asses…

It’s about being honest with yourself…
And others…
Enough to say:

I’m drowning here...
I’ll falling apart...
I'm scared shitless...
I need help ‒ YOUR help…

And to be there for them when their time comes…
And it will…
We all hit that spot in Life…
Some of us more than once…

It’s not about giving into fears...
old habits...
addictions…
But rising above and looking down at them and saying:
F**k You, I win ‒ Ha!

It’s about hearing the sound of a train whistle in the distance…
And closing your eyes and ‘being there’…

to be continued…

Peace, RoseMary

Are these your original poems?
You come so close to what Id like to say if I had the words.
You have a very mature soul.

They reveal a very special person. One Id like to talk more with.

I see you sent me a message but i cant read it because I am not a premium member. I guess by having posted a picture I got some credits but havent figured how to use them yet.
