I appreciate you so much Vanessa, I’m gonna have to look on your profile soon. When someone appreciates you for who you are-I think that is very cool! Ty for being and having a positive person and attitude!
Your welcome, hope you keep smiling often! And thank you as well for making me smile back, tears come with most of my smiles…But their good tears !!! 🙂
Wow Vanessa, that was very powerful and moving! I felt the same way when I was so little (kid) I thought that I was a 40 year old man-I expect that was from my Dad calling me so at that age, he burnt a lot of things in my brain. But just wanted to say thanks for being an encourager and I’m very blessed to hear that you finally made it! I will make it one day-I suppose I’m slow. My favorite part: And to smile everyday! I love smiles!!!
Thank you for your kind words and reply, I appreciate the feedback deeply. It’s not the type of race that finishes with the speediest as the winners. It’s in fact the turtles that win the biggest prizes in life. I’m sorry you too had a difficult childhood, a narrative too common in this world. I’m hopeful that will change soon. Yes, smiles are the…read more

Your very welcome! I have a very heavy heart to share, it’s good people say, but I’m trusting in the One who can heal it. Don’t know and can’t see how-but He says that’s what He does! 🙂

Thank you so much Saga, I really needed to hear that! When someone can appreciate anything I ever write, it makes it worth the while to write, regardless of the experience it took to bring it about. I love everyone from my Unsealed family and think about everyone often. Thank you for being such a blessing in the lives of everyone your involved in…Keep up the great work you do, and God Bless ♥
Both the poem and the Author-took my breath away! 🙂
Why are the women so beautiful?
It’s their Mom’s fault…
Why are men so crazy?
It’s their Dad’s fault.
LOL
Great Poem!!!
Little lad, so soon originality
Were now had of remembrance to see
Like that dreadful hot summer-
Drenched in sweat then thinking
Scared to death, running to Dad…
Yelling out loud, “Hey Pop’s-I’m leaking”!
Or jumping down Superhero style-
Straight off the top of the staircase,
Knowing your cape-towel all the while-
Would land you safe on the base!
Such fun mischief you often went through,
A wonder-dare conquering fears…
The natural boy came to you so clear!
Yes that little boy with hazel eyes and smiles too!
The lines stepped over, “one and only” say they-
At such a time past-you were always this way!
No toys to bring for elementary all for-“show and tell”…
So to school in a box-you brought snakes so well!
When came your turn-they slithered out all around the room,
And all the girls surely thought-this was final doom!
They all jumped up, they screamed and they fled…
But us young boys caught them-let them go, and caught them again!
Have I not to go on of-your happy younger self,
But you were so thankful all for everyone else!
You liked all those kids that none would play with,
You felt bad and cared-so you friended all of them!
That is only character, by God instilled for good…
And because of Him-so poor, yet rich you stood.
Yes little Timothy, original you were-
And that has carried on, in sincere imagination sure…
Even unto this day!
Yea, still that little guy inside-
By your kids is forever embraced!
Love ya lad!!!

“And because of Him-so poor, yet rich you stood” My favorite line 🦋
Thank you for sharing I imagined it all in my head. Especially the part with you showing off the snakes in class and having to chase them all along side the boys.
Thank you for existing ✨

Theresa, may I see you
As it is this day?
May I take one final breath,
And with you fly away?
Who is there,
What do you see?
Have I questions aware,
That you come back to me…so fair?
Woman, I caught-another’s’ power
And so missed you on your final hour.
Honey, woman, darlin-Dear…
I know the One who answers clear.
May I not let this tear me up-
My knowing your there is comfort enough.
May now I see you? Bet!
I’ll stay in 2nd heaven soon,
On the Moon of my regret…
You’re alive in my heart-And True.
2 lines alive-one for me, and one for you.
Thank you for sending me a friend request, that was the first one I ever got! Your poem spoke volumes to me, and you have a nice writing style. I wish I knew how to send personal messages-just because I guess. But I have 2 books I wrote, 1. Falling Shadows and 2. Rising Shadows. Now I’m on my 3rd one called, “We do Recover”. Yes, their poem books. None are published yet but the first one may be, I’m waiting for the phone call to find out if they’re going to. It’s a Christian publisher and won’t be on Amazon or anything-but I’m not writing for money, I’m writing to encourage anyone I possibly can, life is difficult and unfair for everyone a lot of times and we all need encouragement. It’s nice too, when people appreciate the poems-kind of makes it worth writing. I’m not able to get on this computer much, but once again…Thank you for sending me a friend request-it makes me feel special!
Poem very very beautiful Stephanie, just as your name, expression, and glorious face. ☺ Thank you for accepting my friend request and writing good words from a heart ♥ that cannot be erased.
A burning fire so pure in heart
Of passion missing from fishing a lot.
Grandma always said “Plenty of fish in the sea”,
But my thought no trap from a hook of deceit.
A desire wholly changed by looks so bright
Can be turned off and on-like a switch light.
Also taken in is so much again
Of being a boy or a girlfriend.
Yes taking the bad along with the good
Being understood is not to change what could…
Become of love and excepting the thoughts
Me thinks with a feeling-unexplainable when sought.
Seeking/finding love outside of lust
Seems uncomprehensive when affection is a must.
Not as a fairy tale-ending in perfect story
But rather would be true in a mutual glory!
For such fake tales-brainwash society
While love is deliberate action-as a growing key.
Yes love makes to climb the mountains true,
And never lose sacrifices for both of you.
Age is not just a number-off the wall no matter
When it is so far away-one takes advantage rather.
Then the other missed-deprived of spirit sure
That the love hoped by one-could not strength endure.
Let a close age sparkle remain-for to learn together
And to increase the same…Yes-the likeness of,
The simple 23 as completely forever…
Not otherwise fooled by love-
let this not be mistaken
For could be a heart so breaking.
And if love is missed-you can still fly,
With mended wings that still exist-
As eagles in the sky!
Aww love is such a magical thing. I think it starts with loving yourself – once you love yourself the universe has a magical way of bringing you a partner when its meant to be. <3 Lauren
Titus, Try taking all your most hateful angery thoughts and emotions and write them all on one side of a piece of paper. Then take all your best positive and good thoughts on the other side of the paper. Find the ones from both sides of the paper that you’re dealing with and going through in your present circumstances, and drawl lines connecting from worse to best. Then process in your mind how you can transform the pessimism into the optimism using your imagination and real life circumstances about the good you have experienced in your past, want to experience in your present, and will experience in your future by faith… Never hurts to pray 🙏 brother. 😎
Thank you so much Lauren, I am trying my best to actually care about myself. It’s not easy when I’ve hated both God and myself for 20some years-but like I say-I’m trying. This community of like-minded and understanding people has helped and continues to help me do that…Thank you all so much!!!
You have not to go very far
A Library through time-no matter where you are!
Here on earth, and in heaven forever
Nothing shows more worth-than God’s own Love Letter!
It’s the Holy Bible-you know It’s instruction,
The Path of Peace and Life from all destruction!
Please don’t be offended in me,
Everyone has their needs…
So, I chose the Light from the Bible I endeavor to read!
And nothing but the Truth brings Freedoms’ Recovery!
People that seem useless, “no good are they” many do say,
But this “Good Book of Life” for them dispels darkness away!
It upholds and uplifts-the drunkards, criminals and addicts
Spending time in this “Book” becomes to us-a Most Blessed habit!
It changes everything when you look into
It shows you where you’re going, and what you’re going through!
You may be at risk in the storms of life
But Peace will never cease-from It’s Words’ paged so nice!
It will never lie to you-my Best Friend had for free…
To find the stillness of It-living and abiding in me!
This “Book” is my God-The Holy Spirit given free-
Day after day, It has never changed-18 years found of It’s sound Sovereignty!
My dear friend and fellow, sister or brother…
Please search and find It’s Path of Peace-
That only comes from God-Not any other…
It makes the blind soul to see!!!
It’s Author is the same One who Authored you-
The Prince of Peace/The King of kings…
The Mighty God of all Truth!!!
It hurts when people speak bad of It,
For this Great “Book” is alive…
And because It lives-you also do live-
With the Place of Peace in mind!!!
It’s Holy Life is still waiting for you,
Come and rest while your on your quest-
In It’s Place of Peace brand new…
You will find It forever exists-
And is the Best Life to chose!!!
You have some really excellent rhymes in this piece! For example, I really liked the line, “It’s the Holy Bible-you know It’s instruction, The Path of Peace and Life from all destruction!”. I think you told your story in a very creative way and I like your use of exclamation marks to show your passion 🙂 Thank you for sharing!
