Experience is Everything and Nothing
Everything that has happened or will happen was meant to happen;
However nothing was meant to last forever, even if it was intended to.
So live life like you meant to do everything that you did do or intend to do.
And don't worry if you or anyone else doesn't understand why everything happened.
Just be thankful that you lived long enough to experience it all.

Learn more for me
Love more for you
This whole life's the best thing you and I will do
Take time to laugh
And a little time to cry
For in the end my dear it's only you and I
I know we'll make memories that one day will fade away
But for now and especially today don't go turning grey…no not yet

If the world we know came to a sudden stop
And we were standing at the top
…Of it all
I promise you my dear out of love I'll never fall…no not once…at least as I can tell

As the time goes by and we say goodbye we'll shed some tears
Because were only human after all so I guess that means…we know how to express our em

Bacon and EggsBacon and Eggs

If I should ever live to see
The end of the world by one hundred and three
And know the sound that it makes
When it breaks
I hope it sounds like bacon and eggs.

My Life In a Nutshell

My Life In a Nutshell

I (That's just another word for me.)

I tried to reason with myself today.
I lost.
Reason won.

I didn't give you a fair chance to run before you fell in love with me.
By the way, why did you fall in love with me?
Or did you trip over the last heart you broke and land in my arms?

I saw the truth today.
It wasn't pretty.
Ditto.

Yesterday I had a dream.
You lost me.
I found me.

The world use to look so dim.
Oh wait, there's the light switch.
Damn, the light just burned out!

The future looks so bright.
No wait, that's just car headlights.
I think I died and went to...

Ah crap!
Not you again.
Weren't you

May I Never...May I never know what this could have been
May I never wake if this is all just a dream
May I never see your face again should we ever part
May I never know that someone else now holds your love in their heart
May I never hear your words falling on my ear
May I never have a love like this that makes me disappear
May the world cease to exist should this ever repeat it's self
And if it should may I cut my heart out and place it on a shelf.

The Perfect Present"The Perfect Present"

During the winter season on a night very cold
Where the frosty breeze sends shivers down your spine
I met a little boy on the road decades ago
Who looked at the time to be about eight or nine.

I saw him aimlessly wandering from afar
Dodging cars who simply passed him by.
Judging by his ripped clothes he had many scars
And a pair of the most pained blue eyes

Now normally I would have just continued driving.
Who the hell cares about this little ploy?
Its tough enough in this world surviving
Without striving to care about some little boy.

For I asked myself if I was in his shoes
Would he bother to stop his

This is for the ReaderThis is for the Reader:

With the soft touch of his fingers
The piano begins to play, a heart untouched for so long
Bares its secret melody...

-

When I first started out I couldn't avoid just bein' cold
My life revolved the things that I was always told—
I never knew the warmth of standing up to take a bow
It was not a joy that I would ever-ever be allowed
Through all the days I feared that everything would disappear
You held me up and held me close like I was something dear
I never knew I had a part of me that you would like
I guess that's what you feel when you can't even see the light…

-

So this is the only way, that

Let Go Hold On

Literature / Poetry / General Poetry / Free Verse

Everything that matters or should matter let it go
Every person that ever loved you or will love you let them go
Every dream or wish you've ever had let them all go
Every wrong you never corrected just let go
Every hurt you ever felt or will know let them go
Every joy you may bring to others that brought joy to you let them all…go
Giving up is easy
But holding onto all that is dear to you or that you'll ever care for
Is what sets us apart from those that just give up and those that refuse to walk away

cleverlly constructed poem. What sets us apart is holding on to what is dear, and letting go of what makes us bitter.
Thought for the day - "Let go of revenge!"

~Pukachi Sep 26, 2012

To me, letting go is easier said than done...but this is something I needed. Thanks for the motivation ^ ^

I like the rhyme scheme and awesome pic. Your message is also profound, it reminded me of all the good we are capable of, if we care. Thank you!

Letting go can be a good thing. Letting go can be a blessing. Letting go can be the only thing between a person and being happy again...

*goRillA-iNK Sep 24, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Very true...there are times and places full of moments when we must let go in order to find happiness.
_{Just as there are times when we only appear to have let go...
but we still hold on secretly waiting for the perfect moment to let go briefly
and get a better grip on that which we must not ever let go.}

~ireine Sep 24, 2012

True and emotional....It open my heart and give a small piece of hope...beautifull
