The Morning

The gentle dew drops from the flower, And drops down from the grass, The yellow light shines down to the earth, Warming the grass, The birds wake from their sleep, As the day begins, With their song, The hustle and bustle of traffic is going, For those going to work in the day, There are those already awake, For the night and early day are their time, And they are awake to greet the morning, It is these moments that are so simple, Yet so true, That we often take for granted, And sometimes do not take to enjoy, The simple moment of the beauty of the sunshine, The simple moment of the rain that might fall onto the earth, Instead of complaining about the weather, Or about what is going on in our lives, Why can’t we just take a moment? Live in this moment? Appreciate all that we have? And truly enjoy The lovely morning, Rather there is sun shining down on us, Or rain falling around us, And remembering that we are blessed, Blessed

100% Beautiful

One hundred percent beautiful, One hundred percent lovely, One hundred percent wonderful, With every deep and curve, Do not be afraid of your curves, Do not be afraid of your differences, Do not hide the wonder that you are, Do not hide the beauty that is within you, Just because some of society does not understand, Does not mean you are not beautiful, Does not mean you are not lovely, Does not mean you are not wonderful, It is time to take back the image that media portrays, It is time to take back the image that we portray, It is time to take back the body image of our lives, It isn’t about always what is healthy and what is not, Being healthy is important, But having natural beautiful curves, Having them because of other reasons, Does not mean to be upset, Does not mean to be ashamed, Does not mean to stop and feel hurt, Or sad, Means to take back what is truly yours, Because you are one hundred percent beautiful, One hundred per

No Longer Will

Sometimes I still struggle with the life I had with you, Sometimes I still have hard times, Because of all we had been through, My life is so different now, My life is so much better, But still the memories can be there, Many years after the time, But the memories are finally healing now, Because I have been able to forgive myself, From my part of the relationship, And although I know I will never get an apology, From what was caused by you, I keep on going anyways, Because I know what my future is, No longer will your memories haunt me, No longer will your memories make me cry, No longer will your memories stop me, No longer will your memories cause me pain, No longer will you be a part of what is me, Sometimes I have struggled in my life, Sometimes I have had hard times, But I am putting it in my past fully, I am putting it into my yesterdays, My life is moving forward, Even without your apologies, For all that you have caused,

Let's Imagine

Let’s imagine for awhile, Let’s imagine for a day, A life without illness, A life without disease, A life without pain, A life without strife, A life without chronic illnesses no one understands, A life without worry about health issues, That one cannot afford the cost, Because they do not have health insurance, A life without so many things that we take for granted, In our lives, Let’s imagine for awhile, Let’s imagine for a day, Let’s imagine for a moment, Those things can be different, Imagine a world different from the way it is now, Imagine a world free from the pain, Free from the hurt, Free from the strife, We all have gone through, We all have worn badges of honor, Some more than others, Some with heavy burdens, That no one realizes, Or has come to know, These nameless faces, These people that people do not come to know, Because people get so caught up, In caring about superficial concerns, Instead of manners of th
