Now it’s a restart
You’re mending a broken heart
Being strong is part…

Large quandaries are hard to resolve
With all of the efforts involved
Contemplating all
Factoring the falls
Make the call
And evolve.

Thank you for teaching me what love is not
Thank you for poisoning my every thought
Thank you for continuously using me
Thank you for emotionally abusing me

Thank you for not being generous to me
Thank you for taking advantage of all that you’d see
Thank you for mental slaps with a white glove
Thank you for teaching me I had unconditional love
–
Thank you for showing me all your hate
Thank you for showing me my own strength and faith
Thank you for doubting my every word
Thank you for demonstrating to me the absurd
–
Thank you for weaponizing love and sex
Thank you for empty accounts and bouncing checks
Thank you for the emasculations you gave
Thank you for the respect you’d never save
–
Thank you for not being in my life
Thank you for no longer being my wife
Thank you for the dog and pony
And thank you for that alimony…

Rise up from a sea.
Become who we’re meant to be.
For eternity…

If I could hold my inner child, what would I say?
How can the words to come cross the right way?
–
Can I say, “I’m sorry, I know it’s been hard”
Or sing my reassurances like a medieval bard
–
Will the child be moved, or feel relief
Or will the suffering be more than brief
–
Rejections to be faced, disappointment, felt
Or those very first loves that make the heart melt
–
The child wants to fit in, but never will
It’s painful, forcing down to that bitter pill
–
The teasing and jokes you’ll have to endure
Losing that innocence, once so pure
–
I know it’s difficult the way you often feel
But know there’s a lot of people you’ll heal
–
Either with your words or just your time
A special phone call, or a published blog rhyme
–
You’re just unique, it’ll be OK
Because you’ll still be you at the end of the day
–
Strength from your experiences is what you’ll have
Be them tough, easy, happy, or sad
–
Never forget you’re a bright shining star
A guiding light of love for who you are…
-aaa ❤️

Now it’s a restart
You’re mending a broken heart
Being strong is part…

You put in your best and it didn’t work out
That’s what life can be about
–
Loved very hard but you lost
Pondering if was worth cost
–
The Love you gave, and all its good
Didn’t turn out the way it should
–
Sleepless nights and endless tears
Trying to allay your deepest fears
–
Wondering what tomorrow brings
The iciest winter or warmest of springs
–
Look deep inside for signs of hope
On how to deal or how to cope
–
Then there it is a small sign at first
A hint of confidence then a burst
–
Remember who you used to be
Before your lesson’s history
–
Finding glimmers of light inside your soul
That flourished before you lost your goal
–
Buried away at every measure
About to recover the greatest treasure
–
Creative weirdness, music, and art
All your essence from the very start
–
Concerts friends and moments of peace
Bring what was chaos back to ease
–
Now you’re fully you my friend
And all your pain will come to an end
–
Always hit the gym and hit it hard
Venture outside your own backyard
–
Embrace change from all directions
And enjoy new found introspections
–
Don’t stress twisted time and endless sands
Your life is where it belongs, in your own hands
