Focused Thoughts

Realizing in every goodbye
there is a whisper of
hello to a piece of me that
Was lost
Situation that brings some to their knees
Causes me to stand tall
Realizing there is seasons to life winter spring summer and fall
You just have to weather the storms
Dress for the season
There is always a reason...
For every trial
Are u ready to swim some miles?
That's the question I ask these days
Especially when my heart has been dismayed
As those individuals fade to black
I realize what I lacked
Was something no one could give me
The love that I require requires consistency
Commitment
And discernment
I refuse to let my heart ferment
Thinking of time spent
Pondering if in some way did
I misrepresent my heart my purpose
Not losing focus
I walk with my eyes strongly fixed on the horizon
I keep rising
I continue to rise until all hurt feelings reside
Filled with pride
Knowing I wasn't the one that lied
I stayed true to me
Living out my highest equality
Remaining free of regret and guilt
Not crying over milk spilt
I know who I be and remain true to that
Knowing that it wasn't what I lacked
Just the Simple fact
I must more selective of who I attract.

Rebuiding Me

Using writing to heal me
I'm starting to c the patterns
That shape me
and my thoughts about love
Through the joy and the pain
The common theme that remained the same
is giving so much of me
Created every state of emotion
that surrounded my Relationship with he
My thoughts ...
my actions
The ignoring of the many infractions
All in the name of love
Tough it seemed
sometimes Because my heart always seemed
to c the good in bad situations
Realizing the vibrations changed
but my heart remained the same
Incarcerated fixated on
Unconditional love
The ups and downs the ins and outs
Thinking that this is what true love is all about
Forgetting the most important key
That's doing what compliments me
I humbly Await
This time not tempting fate
not only gaining the understanding
But living the truth this time
I made up my mind that I deserve so much better
Following my new found lesson
To the letter
I am healed
My heart will not be concealed this time
It will be proudly on display
I fast and pray
I make the right choices in the future
Making sure I do what suits her
You only have one heart
So I cannot
I will not
allow it to be torn apart ever again
