The Gift: An Empty Box

Thank you to everyone who took the time to read and comment...
Gradually taking my poetry down whenever time allows..it's taking a bit longer that I planned though.

I haven't done any writing for sometime. Writing was my therapy when I was recovering from divorce!

I have been blessed and given another means to lighten my load... reaching out to as many people in the community as I can and I can honestly say I haven't been happier.

Maybe one day I'll take to my pen again, for now I'm just glad to have this opportunity to serve others!

God bless you...everyone of you!!!

About this poem:
I've seen many separate because they find it convenient to just say "we've just grown apart". That I think is just pathetically sad! I believe it all boils down to allowing themselves to fall into some kind of a rut...because if we do not stop treating our partners the way we treated them before we married them...if we do not stop trying to please, to respect, to surprise, to show we care, to make him/her the most especial part of our lives...I can't see "growing apart" ever having a chance on us.

Marriage needs refreshing, even re-styling...again and again to keep it's blood flowing. If we do nothing, if we become complacent and never try to put excitement or adventure in our marriages we are basically not creating any memories and experiences to deposit in our box...memories to hold the marriage together when ill winds come and bother... not creating moments to cherish together is a sure way to let boredom sets in and overcome our marriages.

In my eyes, it really is as simple as keeping a good hairstyle...it needs regular trimming, re-touching if you have colour with it, it may even need blow-waving now and then to get rid of the cobwebs in our lives. The hairstyle will not hold its shape all the time unless we put the effort to keep it looking as fab as the day we walked out of the salon...or in our marriages .... or relationships....the day after we walked on the aisle...

Disregard

I've decided to take this down...
so yeah...you can actually disregard this...

I have commenced removal of all my poems
in order to finally delete my account....

Comes a time when we realize our value
what we think we have can sometimes be just a facade
and everything changes from there, for me anyway.

Thanks...Mcradlof for taking the time...
and David for your advice..

Guilt

thank you everyone!

About this poem:
Witnessed this incident yesterday where guilt was written all over a girl's
face as she was confronted of something wrong she's done. Made me think why humans tend to find it easier to justify the action or become defensive instead of accepting and apologising. The good thing is in this case the young girl has a healthy conscience, guilt made her do the right thing in the end...adults are not that much different.

Trust

I gave you my heart
I gave you my mind
I gave you my time
I gave you my loyalty
I gave up my dreams
I chose to remain
To be with you
To go through
Our growing pains
My whole life
In your hands
If that isn't trust
I don't know what is!

About this poem:
Most people leave us because they don't think were good enough for them. Most people choose to remain with us because they believe we're worth it. That alone should be enough indication as to where our trust and loyalty should belong. Because it's a tad painful when the ones we love keeps allowing those who chose to leave them mar our present.
