Just Stop Dragging Me Around To continuously ignore the real "Love" in your heart Will not release your besieged soul You see It's not like one day Your heart will swell and burst Slowly dripping ME to the ground It's not like one day She will walk into your life And the "grass will be greener" No, No, No, My Love It won't happen that way You see To ME My soul cradles your heart To You Our LOVE holds your heart hostage Your every waking moment You dream of heaving me I've become your morning sickness Your binge drinking That little white upper The lil blue downer And That perplexing anger No matter how hard you try You can't forget The joy Laughter Pleasurable pain And Our future plans No, No, No, It's not over And "OUR LOVE WILL NOT LEAVE YOU ALONE." ~BPoet~
In life always expect the unexpected & try to build from it. Be optimistic; be yourself; Be kind to everyone; laugh out loud & laugh often; live in & see the blessings in every moment; be passionate about who you are & what you do; be encouraging & supportive; see the best in others, but be aware of their agendas; give more than you receive; accept & love others for who they are and extend kindness on to yourself!
“So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable." ~ Christopher Reeve~
"Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over." ~Gloria Naylor~ Peace, Love and Blessings ~BPoet~
