Day 1054 of 1095
Tumblr media
If today was my last day
I am thankful for all that I've been given
I am grateful for all that I have seen
No the other side of the fence
Ain't always so green
You must groom it carefully
For yours to look pristine
For you must appreciate
the life and vitality it brings
If today was my last day
I would give thanks for so many things
I make sure to thank God for everything
The air in my lungs for one thing
The sun on my face ain't just something
I ignore or take for granted, feel me
It's all about the little things
Like the LooVe we have in family
The simplest of things
that Life has to bring
Count them wisely
As they are blessings
If today was my last day
I would savor the many experiences
That can also be seen as lessons
Take from them what's important
Live life with good intentions
My soul is on fire
There's no need for intervention
My words are fueled by my desires
Imma keep at it
My will does not tire
Like a bird onna wire
I lead with my best foot forward
Uncertain of what may transpire
I only wish to inspire
as I strive to go higher
But that next step could be dire
It could be your last step
Like outta the frying pan into the fryer
So MooVe with purpose and intention
Need I forget to ask you this question
What is your call to action
Mine is still in deliberation
But have you given the idea any attention
Your response is a huge part
of manifestation
What makes you different
is your reaction
To the good and the bad things
that happen
Choose your MooVes carefully
Use that style you were given
to enhance your passion
Fill each day with LooVe and compassion
If today was your last day
Wouldn't you wish to go out
in proper fashion

Day 1052 of 1095
Tumblr media
Spent a lot of years healing
After what I been through
Came out of the darkness into the light
Cuz that's what God wanted me to do
Almost lost my mind
Not once but twice
But I found it coming out of the blue
Coming out of such darkness
I felt renewed
He gave me reasons to wanna live life
My family, my children, my adoring wife
I was born into this gift of light
Almost lost it 13 times
Watching life pass before my eyes
It was an insane surprise
To see the many parts of my life
Come together like a movie
Stitched together, scene to scene
It's surreal like a dream
When reality comes knocking
We gotta come clean
Know what I mean
We gotta be honest about our reality
And what little I've truly accomplished
Here's to making that shit right, feel me
Been around the block more than twice
One thing is for certain
Life is beautiful, but it ain't always nice
Life has its rainbows
And it has the darkest of nights
It's a gamble So we roll the dice
I take my hits where I must
I learn my lessons quickly with little fuss
I keep my faith, in God I trust
All we have is that precious time
in the middle that we cannot waste
We must adjust
before we return to our maker
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
And our spirit returns to the universe
As it must

Day 1031 of 1095
Tumblr media
Thoughts provoke words
Words produce actions
Actions initiate habits
Habits mold your character
Character designs your Destiny
The magic you seek
Is in the work you are avoiding
Stop regretting the past
And wishing for the things you can't have
Lessons learned collect real fast
Experience is a thing of the future
It's not meant to stay in your past
Spend your time wisely
Make it last
Cuz Life is fragile much like brittle glass
So be careful for what you ask
Not everything that glitters is gold
I beg you to remember that
The grass ain't always greener
on the other side, imagine that
You must appreciate what you got
Be grateful to be alive, believe that
I've seen so much through these eyes
Be it no surprise
I embrace my family ties
I am grateful for all that GoD provides
Though not every prayer is answered
I am still so thankful for what's in my life
My thoughts become words
as they come to light
Those words then take flight
There in lies the actions of which I write
As they soar to new heights
Line after line after line
Writing has become a habit of mine
By design
My habits have changed me
My character has changed my mind
I can look in the mirror now
And it all feels just fine
As I wonder what I was made for
Aging in years like fine wine
The truth is none of that matters
As long as we are empathetic and kind
To one another as we experience this life
We must always put GOD 1st
And Whatever happens, happens
Whatever will be..will be
It's all just a matter of time, inevitably
So spend it wisely
Pick your circle carefully
Fill it with LooVed ones and family
That's just how I see it
As these thoughts unwind finally
I Thank you kindly

Day 988 of 1095
I miss you my brother
You were like no other
Your talent surpassed any other
I wish I could've been more like you
All the many things you could do
As a child I would follow you
Hang on your every word
I looked up to you
I'd even wear
your hand-me-down clothes
Thats just what mom used to do
We were like twins at one point, who knew
We were seemingly just that close
But as time passed we grew apart
You went your own way
Like a ball straight out the park
You became estranged my brother
Like a stranger in the dark
We lost touch
attached only by our mother/father
Where did you go my brother
As you lost your way
Stumbling through life
Trying to fight your way back
You lost sight of what mattered
You became misplaced and scattered
But you are in heaven now so I pray
That you found your answers
I think about you every day
Wishing we had just found a way
To keep you here with us still today
But God didn't see it that way
Gone too soon, just ain't OK
Be well my brother
Come what may
We shall meet again, one day, this I pray
Until then may you watch over us
Be the Guardian Angel we need
By our side, is where we want you to be
Look out for us, never leave
As Life MooVes us like the oceans tides
Ebb and Flow is my kinda ride
Please protect us
as we dive
into these waves of life
As it is
Life can cut like a knife
Feeling this pain of you gone
Reality bites
but life must go on
None the less it hits us like a BomB
Your passing will haunt me forever long
Life just ain't easy sometimes
It feels like an 3nding to a song
That you wish would play on
And so it ends
Yet time MooVes on
So we continue to MooVe along
I will miss you my brother
Now that your gone
Now that heaven has called you home

Day 803 of 1095 Forgiveness is difficult Practically impossible When the blatant disrespect Is beyond phenomenal When the passing of a LooVed one is left unsaid..unmentioned How in the world can that be done How on earth is that possible May God forgive them for what they have done How can we forgive the actions of others When there is so much pain being felt In a time of mourning my brother Where the worst of cards were dealt We must be concerned about our health It's so much more important than wealth But relationships will suffer in the end There's no chanc3 of being friends Family should have put family 1st And the fact is they didn't Family we were suppose to be Now I feel indifferent So how are we supposed to find forgiveness When the anger inside is beyond sufficient I stand behind this heartfelt decision Now as my mother mourns the loss Of her only surviving sister On top of mourning the loss of my brother Somebody clearly forgot that they were sisters before they were mothers It's just so much to handle One death after the other May they both find their heavenly peace Perhaps they are now with one another Looking down upon us Now our Guardian angels May they always protect us As for the rest of us here on earth May we find peace amongst us As having to deal with this has me furious May God Bless us and keep us Now as we MooVe forward So in God we trust We must Live on without them We must do what we must Keeping secrets is simply fukked up As life is so short and precious God will call us home one by one That's simply the name of the game As we are all human one in the same So Hold on to your family now in the living Say all the things that we are feeling Leave nothing out Start from the beginning For once the truth comes out You better hope those you hurt remain forgiving And in this case there's just no winning #ptsd #ptsdawareness #dpomlive #poetry #poetryworld #poetrywriting #writingtherapy #writing #therapy #anxietysupport #anxietyrelief #inspired #inspiredaily #inspireothers #forgiveness #sayinggoodbye #somethingsjustcantbeforgiven https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp3rHd_siYB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

May the sun continue To shine down on me May this light forever shine down upon me I can feel it's warmth As it caresses my skin Trees offering me solace Beneath their limbs The shade just letting enough light in So I can see the sun's rays Cascade down through the leaves The angle is as inspirational as it seems But a picture simply doesn't cut it Try as we may Looking up as I pray Try as I do to capture such beautiful rays Finding thier way through the foliage Enough to inspire some divine knowledge and grace As the leaves dance in the breeze My Soul speaks loudly God is great for all HE has blessed me with indeed I'm so thankful for the air I Breathe And the ability to Exhale feels amaziN As we continue LiViN breath after breath one after the other Breathe in, breathe out...stretch Til we got NothiN left And we are old and blessed Years from now As I stare up into the clouds And the light once again kisses my forehead I can say out loud Thanks be to God For the life I have now And the life I shall live I am grateful for what I have Here and Now #ptsd #ptsdawareness #dpomlive #poetry #poetryworld #poetrywriting #writingtherapy #writing #therapy #anxietysupport #anxietyrelief💛 #hereandnow #gratefuldad #thankfulgratefulblessed #inspired #inspiredaily #inspireothers (at Orlando, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjnj2AXsEos/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Day 1,203 of 1,460
Tumblr media
As Life surrounds us
We embrace it with little fuss
It fills us with joy and LooVe
It's God's gift from above
As certain as our spirits soar
on the wings of doves
We must be sure of 1 thing
Death awaits us all
yes it does
It's simply a part of life
As we spin through space
in this living paradise
It sits on the outskirts
Patiently awaiting its time to come
We never know when God will call us home
But we can feel it in our bones
As every day we grow older
Ashes to ashes...dust to dust
Of all that is right and just
It is in God we trust
We simply never know
when death will come for us
So we live each day to the most because
Today is all we truly have
So live it to the fullest no matter what
Death MooVes in mysterious ways as it does
You simply never know when it's your day
We have no idea how much time we got
I've seen death before and survived its claws
13 times before as I've kept count
just because
So I appreciate all that life has to offer
And I can promise you this
It's worth more than the almighty dollar
Those who think otherwise often falter
I've looked beyond all my doubts
In the name of my almighty Father
As time tends to slow down
When Death is around
I've seen my life flash before my eyes
Too many times
I've seen heaven..I've seen hell in this lifetime
I'm blessed to still be alive
So I use each day I have to thrive
I beg of you to do the same
Life is not a game
For when it's too late, your outta time
There's rarely any second chances
It's usually a 1 way ticket to the divine
So appreciate the air in your lungs
Give thanks for the days sunshine
Break open a great bottle of wine
Celebrate daily because you only live once
as we tend to forget sometimes
But never forget how fragile life can be
It's meant to be lived happily
Use the time you have wisely
Spread your energy freely, authentically
But as for me
Regret is the only thing
that frightens me, truly
I say this with all honesty
Never let something burden you permanently
Set it free
Do what you must do to let it be

Day 1,170 of 1,460
Tumblr media
Feels like I just dodged a bullet
so I thank my lucky stars
And just stick to it
MeaniN I Push and GrinD hard
That's the ticket...
We do what we gotta do
to get through it
Back against the wall
But God always gets me through it
No need to prove it
HE is in every word I speak
Believe it
That's simply the only way it's done
Cause dodging these bullets ain't fun
Gotta have faith
HIS will be done
Now that I got my health back
Fighting off all these infections
As it can be tough
getting around this town
With your smile upside down
Without feeling 100% believe that
Problem solved... now what
I do what I must
not to get stuck in a rut
We take Life as it comes, it nuts
We gotta have the guts
We better know where we're coming from
Cuz man it's rough
Things can get real tough
Staying on the straight and narrow path
You gotta watch your step at every pass
It all adds up
If you do the math
One thing is for certain
I do not live in my past
I stay the line I do not crash
Living on the edge
is where I make my cash
Man this life MooVes so fast
So appreciate each day
make them last
God only gives you one life
So be grateful of the life you have

Day 1,139 of 1,460
Tumblr media
Hear the breeze
Blowing through the leaves on the trees
Tis that time of year again it seems
Christmas is past us It's hard to believe
As the winds grow cooler
And the Temps get crueller
We tend to think of the past
We tend to think about our futures
2024 is here
we've come around that corner
Feelin like a fish outta water
Now what
Should God gift us with more time
If we are aloud to live
That much longer
What will you do this new year
What is the message
You wish to spread loud and clear
To what shall we
raise our glasses and cheer
My message is I shall not live in fear
I shall cherish each day
Shedding only happy tears
Should they fall at all
2023 saw many of my tears
Lost a brother to his inner fears
Actions we can never take back
We look for answers we may never find
Such things tend to haunt the mind
Yah it feels so unkind
They say wounds heal with time
But I only find that true sometimes
Other times wounds
remain open & painful
There is little relief or reprieve
We simply wish to become forgetful
But let me not ramble too far off track
Mainly here this season of the year
to give thanks
Thanks for all the gifts life brings in fact
Thanks for the many blessings
That come across our paths
God is great for all he does believe that
Tis the season to give back
To be thankful for the things you have
Not to focus on the things you lack
Even when life is on the attack
And we gotta stay mentally strapped
To handle this world so wacked
It can make you feel trapped
Back against the wall in fact
But we get through it
Breathe in ..breathe out..relax
I put it in GODS hands
Toss the coin up see where it lands
Heads or Tails
It never fails
I give him the wheel
Especially when we're riding off the rails
No one can handle the pressure
Like HE can
I remain amazed
accepting the pains & pleasures
As I grip the wheel with both hands
Life is a gift even with all its demands
We must appreciate it all that we can
For we are only here in life
for a short span
So give it all you got
While your fate is still in your hands

Day 1,129 of 1,460
Tumblr media
The service we do
Results in the impact we make
There in lies a SoulFuL purpose in you
Therefore we are authentic
We can never be fake
These are the steps we take
Taking steps cautiously
as these are the breaks
We MooVe through life vicariously
We are wide awake
As we maneuver pitfalls and heartbreak
always going in a good direction
That's what it takes
it helps with my consistency in life
As I trek
along this path I make
I do my best
to know where I'm going
in order to be able to appreciate
where I am at, always knowing
These are the facts
There's no time like the present
Being present is essential I confess
I get no rest
as I put myself to the test
Pushing myself til I'm outta breath
Gotta climb to the summit
Even if it feels like Mt Everest
What don't kill you
makes you stronger, bet
That which makes you stronger
Is where we place our focus, next
Focus is key in this game of chess
Exhaling as I get this sentiment
off my chest
Our actions bring our words to life
Words that can also cut like a knife
As we speak them into existence
We seek a path of least resistance
We wish to do good not bad
We know life can change in an instant
So be careful what you say
stand up and be resilient
Don't let what others say get in your way
Words only have the power
you give to them
And sometimes they can be like mountains
That we must leap over in a single bound
We are our own super heroes, found
In this story we write about
ain't that profound
We can MooVe faster
than the speed of sound
By thinking before we speak that's how
When we choose our words carefully
Before we pronounce them out loud
Give your thoughts time to air out
Never allow your emotions to bleed out
Control is a superpower no doubt
While most choose to scream and shout
I choose to serve with peace in my heart
I choose a path of least resistance
As I go about life in my existence
I thank GOD for his many gifts
As I go about living a life of forgiveness
Letting go of all the hatred and anguish
It's worth it, I promise

Day 1,115 of 1,460
Tumblr media
To be or not to be
that is the age old question
I am to be all that HE
wishes me to be
I do what I can honorably
I do what I must definitively
I am who I am unquestionably
To be or not to be
I wish to be for as long as GOD
Has plans for me
With all this Passion he has instilled in me
I do HIS bidding willingly
Whatever the task HE asks of me
I give it my all Passionately
To be or not to be
That is the question I ask of the
So what is it that you wish to be
What is it that MooVes you Spiritually
What do you know of the divine
I've been around a long time
Life has been sublime by HIS design
I've seen the signs
I can honestly say
GOD is real in my life
To be or not to be
What is it that you choose to be
I choose to be happy
Happy in all I can be
I live a life that ain't to shabby
I've had some hard times
yah its been crappy
But we come out on top
somehow, magically
To be or not to be
It all starts by speaking it poetically
Yes, I choose to live it creatively
It soothes my beast emotionally
But I must stay on my toes, intentionally
Gotta stay at the top of my game ideally
So I work for myself, most definitely
It's my time to lead
It's my time to be
It's my time to shine
To be or not to be
I am who I am because of THE
To my parents, Loved ones and family
Without you I am nothing
You are the wind beneath my wings
To you all I owe everything
These are the words
To the song I would sing
To be or not to be
If I could just find the lyrics
to make my song ring
In the hearts and minds
Of those listening and reading
To those who's heart light is still beating
I dedicate this to all of us
Who are still breathing
For life is a gift thats all I'm saying

Day 1,110 of 1,460
Tumblr media
Been writing for 1,110 days
So what now
The thoughts come crashing down
Where do we go from here ???
Is what it's all about
Sometimes I wanna Scream
Sometimes I wanna shout
I just wanna let it all out
It's a New Year and all
Thank you God for this gift
As these words cross my lips
I am grateful for this continued trip
Around the sun
and the cosmos beyond
I try not to flip
Gotta fight off any negative thoughts
Speak with purpose and not get caught
Up in turmoil and what I ain't got
It's terrible feeling so distraught
Yes I am grateful for so much
But I'm still in the red financially
and what not
My health issues had my hands in a knot
Couldn't work, lost almost 6 months
So now it's about playing catch up
Riding off these rails just trying to keep up
Appearance is everything
so I keep my head up
Put me in a suit that's what's up
I shine brighter than the sun sometimes
No ifs ands or buts
I am present when duty calls
I kid you not
It's the down time that gets me in knots
And too much down time is what's up
Especially when
They taking Dec, Jan even Feb off
The off season to some it's called
But it can be a death sentence
to those like me involved
Unprepared for winter as it comes
Many of us must still work beyond the Fall
We gotta stay on the ball
We gotta keep our world spinning
Always on call
We do business 24/7
It takes that much effort
without question
We do what it takes...we give our all
But the question echoes in my head
What Now...what's Next ...How come??
I ask The Lord
To give me his Strength
As I Fight these chains
weighing me down
Financial burdens got me stretched out
So tired of being Freaked Out
Thankfully, unquestionably
This writing certainly does help me out
Going on 4 years and counting
so look out
Still finding things to say
Still gots plenty to talk about

Day 1102 of 1460
Tumblr media
This is the black and white of me
This is where there's no in between
I don't have 50 shades of Grey believe me
What you get is what you see
A smoothe kind of fellow, real mellow
With a school of hard knocks degree
I've always overcome the negativity
Though nothing has come to me easily
I Appreciate what GOD has done for me
All that HE has given me
I thank HIM daily on bended knee
I am grateful above all indeed
As This is the black and white of me
I LooVe Hard, Passionately
I think too deeply
Imma savage when I gotta be
I am what GOD wills me to be
I stand on my own 2 feet
But I got Mad Support behind me
Even when I fall it's only temporary
They GoT me
For my FAMILY is a blessing
If I were a salad, they are my dressing
One without the other is vexing
What more can I say
They are my drive when I'm sweating
These hardships of life
That can be so depressing
I am nothing without them just saying
I count on them immensely
This is the black and white of me
As I express myself poetically
Finishing year 3 of this lyrical journey
This therapy in all its glory
has been so amazing
I've come a long way, trail Blazing
This fire inside burning
so furiously
It's warmth comforting me
In the bitter and dark times
when they appear
I believe in my GOD
I show no fear
For better or worse
He is always here
So keep in mind, let me be clear
Your mind is the soil
Your thoughts are the seeds
So be careful what you think and speak
This is what I believe
This is the black and white of me
Here we go year 4 of my diary

Day 1093 of 1095
Tumblr media
Writing poetry these last 3 years
Has been a journey so amazing
Blogging my way through life
Has been something so radical
Yet entertaining
A therapy so nontraditional
That I would write
about my life
so emphatically
I've put my heart on my sleeve
I've written what I pleased
I've left it all out there
Allowing my feelings to breathe
To give my words life indeed
These emotions of mine
How they ebb and weave
They flow so intentionally
These last 1095 days
have gone by so sensationally
Each day sentenced so poetically
About what life means to me
And all the things in between
I have spent the last 3 years
Letting my soul breathe
Allowing that light inside to be seen
It ain't always easy
To speak what you feel
About the world you see
Such personal things made real
As I attempt to cope and deal
With my emotions and feels
Then to write them
With rhymical appeal
For the world to read
And for my mind and body to heal
Its a glimpse into how I think
At least I don't need to drink
To express myself in such detail
Quit drinking some time ago
My perspective has changed
I'm more in tune to my ebb and flow
The tides within have subsided
This Tsunami of Emotional overload
That churned inside of me
no longer burdens me
I don't feel like I am drowning
It's as if a weight has been lifted
My God has been kind to me
I truly feel blessed and gifted
I no longer feel so conflicted
My Soul flies freely no longer twisted
In nots or caught up in the trauma
I was livin
My heart feels uplifted
Thank you God for this Life
That I've been given
And a Happy New Years
To us all
Here's to a Life of Happiness
that keeps us breathing
& in LooVe
with Living

DAY 1087 of 1095
Tumblr media
My Days are long
My Days are beautiful
They are each so indisputable
No I'm not delusional
The next is better than the last
As each one does pass
I try to fall in LooVe with my day
Each and every day
That is a fact
they are a blessing...each one
As I feel the light of the sun
Though some days are darker
than other ones
They are a gift from God bar none
so unique and different
Filled with warmth and LooVe
I have zero complaints
I am thankful to the man above
And so every day I try
To be a better me, here's why
We only have 1 life
We only have so many tries
We never know when it's our time
So we have to live our best lives
And in doing so
We must LooVe more, try harder
so my days are going by
as I do my best to live a happy life
Grateful for so many things
Thankful for the song in my heart
And it feels compelled to sing
May it echo in my words
May it resound in my poetry
May my days continue
For many more years to come
And all the joys it shall bring
Do what you must today
Today..now...is the only time
you can truly do anything
Don't wait for what tomorrow may bring
As many go in their sleep
And will not awaken to see tomorrow
What do you achieve in waiting
It's the holidays I'm vibing
Tis the season to be Jolly
It's a Time of being in LooVe
The only way we should be falling
So Merry Christmas to you
And the very best of tidings
