Work in Progress...

"Confront the dark parts of yourself and work to banish them with illumination and forgiveness. Your willingness to wrestle your demons will cause your angels to sing. Use the pain as fuel, as a reminder of your strength."

Going thru some papers and found a poem I wrote back in 2015, posting for shits and giggles *shrugs* doesn’t even have a title.

 

You say that actions speak louder than words,

but all that you see is what you have heard.

All that you know is all that they say

and the things that I do can’t begin to outweigh.

I try and I try and I do and I do.

My deeds are worthless when they whisper to you.

How can I show you what you choose to believe

comes from mouths that lie and deceive?

I can’t and I won’t - you’ve built this goodbye.

And irony of ironies, it’s you that’s the lie.

 

-LR 2015
