• Love’s Disaster

  When all the world was bright with spring,
  And love’s young dream was mine,
  I thought no ill could ever bring
  A cloud across the shine.
  
  But, lo! the storm came sudden o’er,
  The sky grew dark and drear;
  And love, that seemed so bright before,
  Was changed to bitter fear.
  
  And now I know that love is blind,
  And hope is all a lie;
  And he who trusts in womankind
  Must surely rue the day.
  
  For love is like a summer dream,
  That fades away too soon;
  And he who hopes to win the gleam
  Must pay the bitter boon.
  
  So let me learn from bitterest woe
  The lesson love has taught,
  And never trust to woman’s vow,
  Or hope to win her heart.

• Life is a Boiled Vegetable

  Life is a boiled vegetable,
  Not always tasty, not always good.
  Sometimes it’s mushy, sometimes it’s hard,
  But it’s always there, no matter what.
  
  Like a carrot, life can be sweet,
  But it can also be bitter.
  Like a potato, life can be plain,
  But it can also be full of nutrients.
  
  Like a green bean, life can be long and winding,
  But it can also be short and sweet.
  Like a broccoli, life can be healthy,
  But it can also be a bit too much.
  
  But no matter what kind of vegetable life is,
  It’s still life.
  And it’s still worth living.
  
  So enjoy the ride,
  And savor every bite.
  Because life is a boiled vegetable,
  And it’s only as good as you make it.

• Life’s Bitter Winds

  The frigid gust that tenses skin and straightens hair,
  Is like life’s bitter winds that we must bear,
  We brace ourselves and stand our ground,
  Even when the challenges that we have found.
  
  We face the storms that come our way,
  And with each trial, we learn to pray,
  For strength, for courage, for hope and grace,
  To help us navigate life’s rocky place.
  
  But even when the winds are still,
  We must remember to climb the hill,
  And enjoy the view from the top,
  For life is precious, and it doesn’t stop.

• Love or Hate

  

  Love or Hate

  Love and hate, two sides of a coin
  One can heal, the other can ruin
  Love is kind, it nurtures and grows
  Hate is bitter, it withers and slows
  Love brings joy, it brightens the day
  Hate brings sadness, it leads us astray
  Choose love over hate, let it prevail
  For it is love that can never fail.

• Visceral Discomfort

  

  Visceral Discomfort

  I feel a knot in my stomach
  As I face the unpleasant truth
  The reality is harsh and bitter
  And I can’t swallow it smooth

  I feel a pain in my chest
  As I deal with the heavy guilt
  The consequences are dire and lasting
  And I can’t mend what I’ve spilt

  I feel a throb in my head
  As I cope with the constant stress
  The pressure is overwhelming and crushing
  And I can’t find any rest

  I feel a visceral discomfort
  As I live with the dark regret
  The past is haunting and taunting
  And I can’t ever forget

• The Contorted Memories

  

  The Contorted Memories

  The contorted memories we keep,
  A mix of truth and fiction,
  Some we hold onto and some we delete,
  As we struggle with inner confliction.

  The past haunts us like a ghost,
  As we try to make sense of it all,
  The memories, a bitter pill to swallow most,
  As we try to stand tall and not fall.
