Broken Soul

Posted on 29 Dec 201129 Dec 2011 by poeticjourney

You know his soul…
cried out..
He scream my name…
warning me to not
to leave him..
I couldn’t feel nothing..
cause of my soul
had died..
and I kill his soul..
I couldn’t even cry, cause…
my heart wouldn’t let me feel…
I saw his pain..
but did I care..
I wanted him so bad..
cause he touch my heart..
in more ways than one..
I thought I was ready..
but I was wrong…
He never hurted me..
he kept his word..
I was the one that..
broke his spirit..
He had my soul on fire…
Gave me the world…
What did I do?
I left..
Walk out in the rain..
Felt no regret..
No remorse..
I knew I was doing the right thing..
My soul was at peace…

I believer every relationship show us things, even if we dont understand at the time. Wow is all I can say after reading the poem, I really wasn’t at a good place when I wrote it.

Fragile Heart

Posted on 29 Dec 2011 by poeticjourney

Fragile Heart: easily broken as or damaged, vulnerable delicate in appearance

Foolish: resulting from or showing a lack of sense, unwise. 2. Lacking forethought or caution.

You seem to keep going backwards & not forward.

You seem not to see whats good in front of you.

You pushing me away & you don’t know it.

You seem to want to do good, but your past

is keeping you from going forward.

Your Fragile Heart

Has been broken by the same person

over & over

And you wont let no other person have a

chance to mend what has been damage

I call it been FOOLISH at the same time

Fragile Heart

You seem to see the good in one

person & that keeps hurting you

I haven’t even known you that

long, but from what I can see,

you can give a woman much happiness.

You seem to not care what I say & that

hurts me the most.

Fragile Heart

I see the good in your pa.

Learning to Forgive

Posted on 28 Dec 201128 Dec 2011 by poeticjourney

I know I have written on Forgiving a few times, its part of my JOURNEY! This post is sorta like update on how I have come long way and what I have learned through it all.

I never knew how much it could

destroy me, holding so much

angry in my heart!

Learning to Forgive

hasn’t been easy

Now

I can honestly look at

the person I was so hurt with

without anger

in my heart.

You know I tried to understand his

pain, but the way he act destroyed

my compassion I once had for

my own flesh & blood

Maybe it was me been sick

and laying in the hospital

that truly got me thinking.

Or maybe it was me working

on a better relationship with

GOD

That showed me how

Learning to Forgive

could be healing process

for the soul

as well as for the body

It hasn’t been easy!

but so worth the JOURNEY

to overcome.

it truly does make you feel good

on the inside

Learning to Forgive

12/28/11

PoeticJourney

After taking a break from the post and coming back to it. Before Christmas I saw something in me, I had started to forgive my brother, and saw how much I needed to learn to forgive the other person I was mad with. I shouldnt’ have so much animosity in me, when I’m struggling with trying to make it day by day with my illness. having talk with my mother by somethings and I realize how my body felt when I talk about certain person. I let myself get the best of me and felt like I was choking. That was a sign to let it go and end the conversation. The post is about Learning to Forgive and how I’m a working process.

Curls

Posted on 28 Dec 201128 Dec 2011 by poeticjourney

~Mr.Man~

~Lil Lady~

I once knew a little boy

who had a head full

of curls

Mixture of black,

hint of red & brown

The thing he did

would pull his beautiful

curls.

Wouldn’t let you touch

them curls

with comb or brush

Mr. Man Man didn’t play

Born with no hair

to head full of beautiful

curls.

You could lay your face

on them soft curls.

If you wondering if I have kids, no I don’t. I only have niece & nephew and they or like my own. I love to write about them when I do my post. They both have curls to tell you the truth, but this one is dedicated to my little guy! I will have pictures posted up a little later today, right now camera battery is low. I actually post two different pictures of him with hair and no hair. And I post a picture of his sister as well. I might have to wait to move to my old computer and load pictures that way. The point of the poem is we recently got his hair cut for the first time, so he totally look like a new little boy. I actually video tape the whole ordeal and was thinking about doing a poem on that once I got the inspiration. I must say he surprise us all no crying or nothing. He was actually a good little guy! Made us so proud of him. I know I promise awhile back when I wrote https://poeticjourney251.wordpress.com/2011/11/26/babies-attack/ I would share pictures so I’m so late with them but here or a few. Will post more once I get to my other pc or load pictures on this pc.

What you scared of

Posted on 28 Dec 2011 by poeticjourney

Or you worry about

your old feelings returning

Or you scared he may

feel the same for you

You didn’t know

you hurt him back

in the day.

Years have past

And here is your chance

again

And you have found one

another all over again.

What you scared of?

Dont let your opportunity

pass you by.

These could be your second & only

chance.

What are you scared of?

Is your heart

betraying

you right now?

Do you want him?

Are you just that confuse

because your heart is

playing with you.

What you scared of?

he could be the one

and you letting your heart

get the best of you

What you scared of?

These may be your only chance

Open your heart,move

your lips to the beating of your

heart.

Tell me..

What are you scared of?

Tell him just how you feel

Tell him now, not later.

What you scared of?

It’s now or later.

Make the right choice & and

let it be known.

Shoo…

Just make the first move

Tell him what you been feeling

so tell me

What you scared of?

I know awhile back you read a poem I wrote that my friend http://colorfulperspectives.wordpress.com/(Risqué), inspired me to write about her situation, well I wrote this one first and since it was little too much to type up at the time. When me and her was in a chat I came up with the one I shared called https://poeticjourney251.wordpress.com/2011/11/17/one-chance/.

I got a song in me

That needs to be heard

GOD

You are my

JOY

MASTER

You there when I

Need you

Yes, You Are

Thank You

The song in me

Is ready to explode

I’m ready to share HIS word

Are you READY?

for his return

Yes,he coming back

Are you READY?

The song in me

Won’t let me be quiet

Any longer

It’s beating to my heart

I have a message if you

In need

Just get on your Knees

And pray

You aren’t alone

The song in me

Is free indeed

Take his hands and

Follow him

Choose him today

Let Go

Posted on 24 Dec 201118 Jan 2012 by poeticjourney

Devil take your hand off of me

I want to be free

GOD

I know you see the different struggles

I been going through

I done seen my share of doctors and hospitals

And nurses

GOD

I feel like my body is losing the battle

I’m questioning my health

But I know you have the last say so

I done experience Depression for awhile

I done wanted to give up and walk away

Devil let go of me

I may be struggling but I’m not ready

To lose the fight

I have been fighting all my life

GOD

I know you have a plan for me

I’m a living testimony

Your son JESUS didn’t have it easy

So why would I?

I’m holding on but sometimes

It feels like I’m holding on

To my last string of HOPE

Devil takes your hand off of me

You can’t have me

You have return

to awaken something inside

of me!

Can my heart still beat

to yours after years of being

apart?

Ole Love

You tickle my inside when

you talk about I make you soft

You know me, I’m harder than the

next person.

Your kindness is breaking

my walls.

Ole Love

speaking to my soul

as I speak to my heart

Can this be happening?

Where have my hardness went?

maybe its the season that’s turning

me into forgiving and loving soul

Maybe its his loving heart

touching me soul and breaking

my brick walls!

God I don’t know if I’m ready

to let another in

Ole Love

made mistake in the past

Can you honestly tell me

who hasn’t?

Ole Love

giving me time and time

is all I need!
