Zen

Zen is a great way
To be when you're lost and to
Never forget you

WHAT A DIFFERENCE A YEAR MAKES





Yesterday I was a clueless me
Today I am a different me
What a difference a year makes

I was a scared little girl
Who thought she had friends
What a difference a year makes

I've learned my only allies
Are the ones that live with me
What a difference a year makes

I've discovered things about me
Things I've never known before
What a difference a year makes

When you feel you can't break free
If only you could turn around to see
What a difference a year makes

X-Ray

I do not wish for X-ray vision
But I would like a glimpse into the mind
Some confuse me so badly
And I'd like to know what they're thinking
But then again....


Maybe that's a bad idea
Since I'm good at reading others anyway
To read minds and feel emotions
Would surely drive me insane
One is good enough

Whatever

"I have not failed.  I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work"
Thomas Edison




When I say, "It is what it is," I don't need an argument
However, I need a friend that'll say, "Everything's alright."
As much as I want that, I know I'll never get that
Time keeps ticking, and I've still not found friends like me
Even though I am a wishful thinker, I need to cast it away
Vast waters engulfs me, telling me what I already know
Every-single-thing sends reminders I need to move on
Rightfully in the place of where I truly need to be

Versatile

VERSATILE

Versatile is not my thing, although it can be
Every where I turn, I can't catch a break
Running away seems like fun, and then I realize
Sometimes you can't run away from your problems
And also the possibility that I am an grown up
Time is always a funny love/hate relationship
In a universe full of so much wonder undiscovered
Let us learn from other lessons instead of repeats
Every thing does turn out alright in the end, I believe.

Universe

UNIVERSE

4.24.15

Unravel the closed up mind
Never settle for what you only see
In your childhood, you once believed
Vast amounts go beyond time and space
Everlasting souls emerge and are reborn
Reverse time back to your youth
See the universe for what it truly is
Everything is possible in your YOU-niverse

Quiet

QUIET

Have you ever just wanted quiet???  Inside your head????  For me, it gets so loud in there...Here's a couple of haiku's on quiet...

*****QUIET*****

Quiet is never
Whatever it never seems
Quiet can be free

***********************************

Quiet can be loud
Rising above your own mind
Find your inner peace
