NOTHING TO LOSE

How many times have you watched others succeed at something You’ve always wanted to do?

How many times have you been gripped with so much fear, 

You were afraid to take that first step?

How many times have you said, “why try”?

If you’re like most people, one time too many.

Today is the day to do, move and try,

You have nothing to lose and everything gain.

Losing Love is like falling in love in reverse. Only much more painful. Don't worry, it may feel as though you're dying but, you won't. 

EASY TO LOVE

Loving you was easy

Loving me took some work

I had to find myself and accept who I was

Amidst all the pain and hurt

See, I never thought I had issues

In my mind I was fine

Until things pointed out by you

Put self-doubt in my mind

Over time, things became clearer

There’s nothing wrong with me

You used criticism and comments

To hide your insecurities

You've found them, your soul mate. They make you feel weak in the knees and you love it. Love long and liquefy!

MY WEAKNESS

You are my weakness

I am powerless around you.

I both love and hate how it feels.

I wish I could control the feelings or the heat

That is generated by your mere existence

I wish I were strong enough to walk away

Without looking back, never to return

But alas, you are my weakness

So, I guess I’ll never learn.

Finding your soul mate in a sea of wrong mates, feels amazing. You fall asleep and wake up with butterflies in your heart and a smile on your face.

I LOVE THE WAY

I love the way 

You look at me,

When we share intimate space.

I love the way 

You smile at me,

As you gently touch my face.

I love the way 

You talk to me,

When we’re spending time alone

I love the way 

You tease me,

When we’re talking on the phone.

I love the way 

Your kisses

Make me hunger for you more.

In my heart I know that this is

What I’ve been waiting for.

At times, believing in yourself can be challenging. Things can happen daily to make your question your abilities to keep moving forward. Don't be discouraged. You have everything you need to be accomplish your objectives.

YOU’RE ALL YOU NEED

It’s good that they left you,

Stopped pretending they cared.

Now it’s your turn to

Stop being scared.

Believe you can do it.

You have all that you need.

Faith will help you get through it.

And ensure you succeed.

As thrilling and excited as it is to fall in love, losing in love can make you feel like your heart is being ripped from your chest. The loss can open the emotional floodgates and consume your very existence. Keep the faith, strength will return. You are worthy of love.

NO LONGER IN LOVE

I sit quietly 

And reminisce 

About the things we used to do. 

The talks we used to have 

And how we were aligned 

Within one another’s minds. 

It doesn’t happen anymore. 

Did we grow apart 

Or 

Were we torn apart? 

I don’t really have an answer for it. 

I hope at some point, 

We’ll both learn to love again. 

Even if it’s not each other.

Had you given up on ever finding love? I mean that honest, soul-searching, I can't live without you love? Imagine that just before you totally call it quits and walking away... you spot them. Your eyes meet, your hearts melt and you fall hard! Don't give up. It could happen to you.

ALONE IN A CROWD

The room was crowded, but all I saw was you.

So handsome and debonair, and well-dressed too.

I suppose I heard some voices; I couldn’t really tell.

If I’m being completely honest, only my eyes were working well.

I wanted to be near you, but my feet would not comply

Frozen in place, staring at you, as the crowd was passing by.

The people began to clear a path, so I could walk to you

To my surprise and sheer delight, you were walking too.

The distance between us disappeared and

We were standing toe-to-toe.

You looked into my eyes and said,

“It’s time for us to go”.

I gladly accepted your outstretched hand,

I could not have been more proud.

From that moment on, we were one.

I was no longer alone in a crowd.
