Window Seats

It was a willing
choice to be made -
I dreamed, I hoped
I asked and I prayed...

So why does it cause
so many tears -
nightmares, anxiety
filled up with fears...

Thinking back on 
familiar places -
missing a few
lovely faces...

I guess it is fate
it's too late now -
trying to adjust 
to new ways somehow.

Silence

You said what you meant
and meant what you said -
You let it all out
what was inside your head...

Who cares what they thought
or if they'll ever talk to you -
what a relief that their
rude abuse is through...

It's only more closure
that needed to be done -
they aren't in your future
nor or they the ones...

You want to be around
or even ever see -
you spoke the truth and
the truth shall set you free!

Wings

The choice is up to me
half empty or half full -
scary and dangerous or
just new and very cool...

Regret leaving what I knew
or find new things to love -
worry about my future life
or live what I dreamed of...

Many chapters are written
in this book of days -
so open tunnel vision eyes
and live these better ways...

Where seagulls fly above
gorgeous white sandy shores -
while driving palm lined streets
that is what you are here for...

Live this new experience
that finally set you free -
to live the life you wanted
and where you wanted to be.

Acceptance

Everything I do
seems to fall apart -
I wonder why
I even start...

Just to face
disappointment again -
I wonder if
it's possible to win...

Rejection sucks
failure is hard -
my poker face
can't hide my card...

Just disappear
let everything go -
it's what I've learned
it's what I know...

I can't bloom
in toxic soil -
I bow my head
and just recoil.

Blossom

Dreams really
do come true -
but there is uncertainty
with them too...

Especially when
everything is new -
and you don't know
what to do...

Except enjoy
the scenery -
the flowers, the birds
the greenery...

Taking each day
with what it gives -
Learning about the new
place you live...

This was your dream
for many years -
now wake up
wipe away your tears...

If after this time
you want to go home -
at least you allowed
yourself to roam...

Outside of your known
concrete lot -
Enjoy this time
with what you've got.
