There’s been laughter
and disaster.
There’s been joy
and pain.
There’s been too many questions.
Not enough answers with
no one willing to own up &
take blame.
There’s been rainy days & sunshine.
There were a lot of tears.
There’s been many nights & hours
thinking ” at least I can say I tried”
Moments & Memories on replay.
I guess we can wish things turned out differently.
Suddenly I’m brought back to the present day.
It doesn’t mean the sadness will ever go away.
But I can still be grateful for all the chapters gone before.
Happy & lucky to be able to look forward to making many more.
POWER PLAY.
You think you hold all the cards
But all I see is a joker in my hand.
I could make this a long one.
But that was never the plan.
Not that I’d use how
your feelings against you.
Because that wouldn’t be kind of me.
For a long time your haven’t been
willing to see past yourself.
As hard as it may be.
It only takes a word or two to
ask for help.
This isn’t some power play.
This isn’t a game of chance.
You don’t get to act like that
& expect me to say thanks.
” Let’s bury the hatchet “
Is that what they say?
I’d need more than a minute,
maybe a lifetime or is it a day?
Easy to get mixed up.
When simple things only go one way.
