If I did the same thing to you and yours
that the person you’re protecting did to me and mine
you’d hate me for life

-

I made a wish on a falling star as a new love captured my heart

-

You wonder why you're alone
Yet you lost a gem for a stone

-

You can't break someone who turns pain into strength

-

Time cannot erase every heartache
You can stand in the rain
but
It won't wash away your pain
You can hang yourself out to dry
but
It doesn't mean you'll feel the sunshine
You can be the storm
but
Your spirit will still be tattered and torn
You can change names and faces and
Runoff to different places
but
You can still feel cold embraces and
See wide empty spaces
You can stay busy or stare at a wall
but
You will still cling to the edge trying not to fall
When you lose someone you love
It feels like you lost it all

-

It feels amazing
to walk away from a wreckage
With a full heart and an open mind.
leaving all its debris behind

-

MAMMA

My heart breaks as I write
Words can not describe
how
you touched so many lives
As I sit here alone
I know
If it wasn't for you
I'd be going through
a much harder time
You were always open, honest,
and laid it all on the line.
Your love was strong and bold
Yet
Soft and divine
You never neglected, excluded, or left anyone behind
Even in your pain and suffering
You were thoughtful and kind.
As your body lay still
Your spirit soars high
An angel on earth
Now an angel in the sky
Until we meet again
A smile in my heart
A tear in my eye
See you on the other side

Karma Wins

-

In your darkest hours,
you can distinguish the weeds
from the flowers

-

Sometimes, you have to step out of your comfort zone,
to find your comfort zone

-

Vitality is bittersweet
Sickness and Health
Life and loss
Sorrow and Joy
Ample and desolate
Still and changing
