Life’s uh-maze-zing

Life’s a labyrinth
Of decisions one must make
Blind intuition

Leads us through the maze, we play
With dead-ends and great escapes

You should know…. #Tanka #Poem

You’re partly to blame
It’s been over a decade
I’m changing my ways

Activated membership
With a promise not to quit

Moving Forward ~ #Poem

Sometimes you have to start over
To appreciate what you once had
In order to get everything back
While learning to move boulders

Resist temptations of let’s pretend
Sweep expectations under the rug
Stuff fears in the closet with a shove
Organize thoughts into neat little bins

Although they’re my burdens to carry
I’d rather leave em dead and buried
To deal with hauntings over my shoulder
As a soldier, constantly moving forward

Never really looking ahead, nor back
Caught by surprise, at the time of attack
Fighting the panic cause I’ll handle it
With support & dedication that never quits

Yep!

I know what I said, but

my flowers are dead, and 

I’m filled with dread, yet

Here I am, once again 

Ready to take that first step

That’ll lead me to the next
