I am strong,
I can overcome any obstacle,
Once i put my mind to it
I'm a fighter.

When someone pushes me down,
Not only physically,
But Mentally and psychologically,
I will pull myself up and say,
" Nice try, but its going to take more than gravity to keep me down,because i am a fighter."

When you say i won't make it,
It just encourages me to work harder,
When you make fun of my flaws,
I continue to embrace them,
Nothing you say will bring me down,
I'm a fighter.

Sorry its kinda long

They point the finger at me
They say everything is my decision
But they shove me down when i do decide
They tell me im not smart enough
And when i point out they made me feel
As if i wasnt good enough
They tell me they didnt do anything
They say i shouldn't listen to them
They say that they were "playing"
Knowing **** well they weren't
They act like they have no blame
They all act that way
And the ***** that is suppose to be there for you
Goes along with them
And expects you to ******* be there for her
No *******
Im no longer helping you
Whenever you ger suicidal dont ******* call me
And dont try to tell me i was never there
I was always there
I was the one taking blow after blow
I even took the blows going towards you
And you never once took a blow
Dont come calling on me
Dont ever ******* come to me again
Im sick of being walked on and ****
So *******
Im done taking the blows for you
Just for you to take me for granted
I hope you see how much i did for you

Terrorism and Tacos

I'm eating bean and cheese,
Suicide bomber attacks airline;
I spill some salsa
And the body count isn't in yet.
There is no suspense here,
Just tacos and the horrible news;

I change the channel
And look for my huevos rancheros,
Terror does not exist anymore
But the salsa stain remains.

How and what can we do when we see these things?
Joining the army? Or keep on living and not let the fear take us over. Live your life and give and help when the opportunity arises, simply living on and moving forward is fighting in its own right. There is no fear but fear itself.

Do you want to go dance in the moonlight?

Where?

Dry Lagoon around the rocky bend
Just past the tide pools
Anenomies and Star Fish
Where the beach is
Where the agates, glassy yellow shine
in the horizon sun

Sounds good
When are you coming?

Around six thirty-five
There's a harvest moon rising
I have Del Shannon and the Drifters on the Spotify

My mom is in a mood
I don't know if she'll let me go
She's being way to profound
yelling at the t.v.

It's okay
Tell her you're gonna find some bliss
She won't know what to do with this

You're my sweetie
Come and get me
I've got a baggie for the agates
A "bonnet" for the sun
I don't know the Drifters
But come on around
and
Give me some

K.

Remember, save the last dance for me.

Quite a day of amazing poetry, so many brilliant writes, so much tragedy out there in our world. This is just a wispy interlude, hoping to make you smile
