Miscellaneous Facade

The time has come
For me to break this down
For those that seem not to understand
The providers for unappreciative supportees
Not matter what they do for you
It is not enough
I view the stress you have
On your face and in your hands
I hear the frustrations
I do not sympathize
Is loneliness that scary
That we allow people to use
Miscellaneous facades
As gateways to our resources
Do we believe the lies
Seek comfort in them
Because reality hurts us so
Strengthen your heart
Open your mind
Let go of unnecessary baggage
Trust and believe

Had Green Eyes

Just passed by you
Now laughing to myself
You disguise your look as
Disdain but you cannot
Change the color of those eyes
The window to your soul
Greener than dew drinched grass in May
How could you look at me that way
You hardly know me
I know that I am impressive
You could be also if you really tried
I place my heart into improvement
Internal and external
Maybe that shows and you are mad
At yourself for not doing your best
But it would behoove you
To see my example and raise your standards
Not hating on me with
Looks and words
Wise people live and learn
Others are irrelevant

Weak

Tired
I have been good for so long
Maybe I should let this
Other side out for a while
Get into somethings
That would be considered
Bad
Thoughts may overtake me
Persuade me
Contemplating the dark side
Making money with my body
Playing tricks just to get ahead
So many do it
They all benefit
Temporarily
Maybe since I look at the long term
I know I cannot do
Those things
They are very tempting though

Anew

Reinvent
Refresh
Away with the old
Need a vacation
Must do something
A new look
Nothing too drastic
Just enough to feel
New, renewed
Fresh
Wanting to replace my regular stares
With double takes
Bold enough to do it
Complete overhaul
Be prepared
It may be too much for most
But maybe it will peak
The right one's interest
Next up
Me anew

Overwhelmed

Ever want to just float away
No cares
No obligations
Just you
The beach and a strong mojito
That is how I feel
When I am overwhelmed
Life is more than I expected
I am neither ill-equipped
Or unprepared
Just a little overwhelmed
I have to stop sometimes
Take a deep breath
Reevaluate
Find strength
When life supplies none
Will power to live
Victoriously although
Every now and then
I am overwhelmed
I close my eyes
And imagine the beach

My Vows

On this day
I vow
To myself
To never allow
Anyone or anything
Come between
My goals and myself
That my present
Destroys all past
Hurt and pain
That my present
Projects an astounding future
Full of joy
And that my present
Reflects the true me
Absent of unnecessary influences
I vow to grow
