What a walk we had.
I see it now as perfect,
Just the way it was.
Author: JOE
Just working through and sharing some ideas with the hope of sparking minds towards peace and love.
Prey
The stripes stand out,
But they better be Looking.
Unnoticed; no-head-start
You can call it a Booking;
An appointment to kill his prey in Wait.
Once-he has the jump
It’s-already too-late.
I CAN’T EVEN
She’s so quick to anger.
And like, I literally can’t Even.
Whenever it happens,
I just feel like Leavin’.
___
She thinks I’m the problem.
Something’s always Wrong.
So I shut down,
And I be Gone.
__
Again, like I literally can’t even.
Like, we’re worlds apart.
Said, But Not Heard, Yet, Consciously.
We speak these words,
But we don’t yet know Voice.
It’s no one’s fault.
There wasn’t a Choice.
___
What-we’re-not-yet quite-hearing
Are the memories of Talks,
The times of shared laughter,
And the difficult Talks.
____
With deeper chats,
We’re-so-close but not There.
It’s like a bubble,
And we’re not quite Aware…
___
What Could Have Been
I knock on doors, a lot.
Sometimes no one’s home.
Often, someone’s home, but doesn’t hear me knocking.
Often too, someone’s home, but chooses not to open the door. I wonder about these people and their reasons for not opening the door, and I move on wondering about the missed window of opportunity for myself and for those who chose not to open the door.
Coyote at the Edge
Within and beyond the fence.
At the edge of the forest I stand, in part.
Confused by where I stand.
Confused about where I’ve been, and unsure of where I’m going.
Trusting though enough in myself and in life; believing that I am safe and will find my way into the light; be it the open field, where I’m exposed, or through the forest; uncertain and often dark where hope is not a guarantee; where return is not a given.
It’s coming if we accept it…
Too careful; timid.
We just want to be Right.
But, our true voice will surface
When we step into the Light…
When we stop playing small.
Loving Me Moment
Thank you.
I rarely respond to likes, but I wanted to today. Thanks Phil.
As I read these words,
I’m finding peace.
Inner me. Distractions cease.
The noise around me fades away.
This time’s for me, and so I pray:
May this focus, here and now,
Calm me later; show me how,
To be with peace, when I am low,
And to understand, to learn to grow.
I may not get it right away.
Some lessons come another day.
I will find peace with steps ahead.
That is my choice. May I be led…
By my will and by my guiding spirits;
With Love

We see what we want
You can believe what you want,
But it is what it is.
You see what you want. But it’s truth that will live.
If you can’t be sure, then it might not be fact.
But, you stand to lose, so you choose to attack.
You’re wanting an outcome to play-out in your favor, but if you can’t keep it real…karma comes later…
Which is when you’ll admit it; that you had it wrong. And, then what? Too late? That moment’s now gone.
So what do ya do? Can you make things right?
Lesson learned? Will you change overnight?
It’s like the stars. They don’t go away.
You think they’re gone. They’re just outta sight for the day.
Like the light you can’t see, but that’s always been there. If you happen to see it, then you’re becoming aware.
