Do not be reckless with love.
Hearts that have been entrusted to you.
Remain thoughtful,
nurturing takes time.
Let love grow,
the negativity go.
Do not let words slip through your lips.
A sharp tongue wounds the heart.
Take time before you speak,
find the tenderness.
Share the positive,
live great love with great care.
I look at myself in the mirror and I see a goddamn chic
Not the man I used to be
Hell, did I ever become a man to begin with
I was a boy until recently
Now a woman trapped in a man’s body
Suffocating in a woman’s body
She’s pretty
But look at me
Not the man I never used to be
Maybe I oughtta pull my pants up, just slightly
Maybe if I get my hair outta my eyes
I might see things a bit more clearly
… just maybe
huh. ..fuck me
…twice
this is cool, wasn't sure what people would come up with here. You made it very literal, I like it, a lost feeling and a vulnerability mixed with disappointment. Anyone could be looking at their own refection thinking all of what you brought here. Very good.
give it to me
give me some

feed my children
feed my head

I love the rhyme. You should send this or post this someplace for the masses, it is very good, the gimme gimme that is our world. I love it,Jo, very very good! creepy little pic reminds me of centipedes

Verbal abuse is just as bad a physical abuse. Except with verbal, the pain is locked deep inside of you - you cannot see the damage from the outside. ( unlike physical abuse ) But its there and just as painful.....

this evening I set out on my own
the cold air stung in my lungs
I walked the old country road
the one you liked so much
and tried to remember
the last time
you and I were here together
as the winter sun
began to fade from
the sky
I noticed the sad trees
maybe for the first time?
lining the road,..
like tall soldiers
in honour of a fallen brother
I believe
they are in parade formation for you
for it was you who showed me the way
it was you who gave me love
it was you who gave me hope
you who made me belong
and it was you who left me alone
and broken
so maybe they gather for me?
I don’t think so,..
but maybe.
I may never be sure,..
may never know
but as the snow crunches
beneath my boots
and the breeze snakes
between the leaves
I know its missing YOU
that makes my heart
and these sad trees
bleed.
Peace, Love.
