You are the center of your universe

Making things, so small, much worse

Always with a scornful look or sneer

To even those you once held dear

While time is fleeting, passing you by

All you think of is an eye for an eye

How silly it is to go on living like this

Instead of kindness, you choose to diss

Those who gave their precious time

Who, in your eyes, are quite begrimed

This I offer, though you won’t hear

My words, no matter, are very clear

Seek His peace, and hope, and light

Then learn to love instead of fight…

Author’s note: I have been struggling to get through health issues as well as family issues, but I’m over it. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but for my own healing and well being, I have to move aside. These words are the final pouring out of a very hard decision that was, unfortunately, inevitable. Thank you for reading…

I truly admire they, whose unique tastes, know no boundaries

Though eclectic styles of many, can sometimes cause a battle

That’s when others second guess us, creating many quandaries

We just smile, show them the door, go on, we say, skedaddle

Word of the Day – Admire

It is an integral part of us, as true human beings

To make an effort, so we make the world right

Yet we continue to blame, ignoring, not seeing

Anything that needs attention, instead, we fight

Word of the Day – Integral

Let me melt away the pain

That lingers on my skin

Let me release the sorrow

I hold, so deeply, within

Inches of this body writhes

As I try to hold it all together

But fate has dealt a mighty blow

And this life, I have to weather

Agony has set its pace, still

I continue, with all my might

To chase away the darkness

Choosing only to see the light

Since it is technically Wordless Wednesday, I opted to use a photo to depict the writing prompt for today. (These words aren’t really here, since it’s supposed to be wordless 😉 )
