Bits and Pieces

Hey everyone... Sorry it's been so long. I have been so busy and distracted lately. I have found my self in a state of procrastination. I start several pieces...and I simply can not finish them.  SO I will give you the little blurbs I have so far.

My Book 
I'm going to write it down, Because life isn't fair,
Run away from me, Do I still care?

I'm going to spell it out, and draw it too,
Writing words in my book, about you.

Thoughts      
My thoughts go quickly, changing with every blink.
An action, a movement, a word - it's hard to know what I think.

Happy Place
Sometimes I don't want you to see my face,
So when I look away I'm in my Happy Place.

SO those are just a few little bits im still working on..... but keep an eye out - im sure i will get to work soon! I have been crazy confused lately........ being pulled in every which way.... but all is well, i will figure it out. hopefully.

Changes

Sometimes things get old,
Old things should be changed,
It's time for something new,
Still you, but rearranged.

Not to huge or crazy,
Yet not too small to see,
Something new and true,
Be who YOU want to be.

Everyone is blending,
So why shouldn't you stand out?
Don't be fooled, be unique,
Be what you're really about.

When you look in the mirror what do you see?
Who's eyes are you trying to impress?
In my opinion, it should be your own,
They're more important than the rest.

Laugh a little longer,
Dance a little more,
Change your style, thoughts and ways,
Become who you really are.

I tried this for myself,
My ways are silly and great,
Out with the old already!
For the new, I just can't wait!

Simply Yourself

Can you be simple? And can you be yourself?
Can you look past the lies, and learn to love yourself?

Not one thing is completely crisp or clean,
Everything has flaws, many go unseen.

Nothing alone is only black or white,
Don't ignore the grey areas, don't put up a fight.

In your own way you're perfect, no need to change a hair,
You, yourself, one of a kind- no one can compare.

So don't analyze every problem, different is always good,
When looking in the mirror, do you see what you truly should?

Would you dare to criticise God's work?
Love your freckles, blemishes, and every little quirk.

Even though life is hard, think before you act,
Need something for thought, or a helpful fact?

Be always your own, simple and true,
Even at your darkest, there is light in you.

I feel BLEU

All I can do is remember, try hard not to forget,
Even though it caused problems, I still don't regret.

Not your eyes, or smell, or the kiss on your lips,
My hands in your hair, your hands on my hips.

Soft and simple, till someone had to interrupt,
Bringing our moment to a stop- so abrupt.

Angry, upset, frightened to lose,
His bestfriend, so now I feel used.

What keeps us from the future- an inconvenient past,
Now you're taking a step back, you're getting out of here fast.

So back to the beggining, the good and the new,
Forgetting the problems, but remembering you.

Moutains

Rocky and uneven, you catch my eye,
The mysterious creatures, sneeky and sly.

Covered in tress, sheltered in shadows,
Enjoying the smooth, grassy meadows.

Your footholds untrustworthy, your handholds- unfaithful,
I slip and I trip, your amuesment is hateful.

Dark and gloomy, you strike me with fear,
But then cheering me up, bird-song catches my ear.

Looking I see something I would never guess,
Your elaborate structure is a beautiful mess.

       -Simply Brooklyn

Never take anything for granted, because you never know when it's your last,

Your last smile, your last laugh, your last kiss, it could all end so fast.

 

And don't be quick to anger, or turn your back and glare,
Sometimes it's the easy thing to do, but it shouldn't be hard to care.

Never pass up an opportunity, for someone’s heart might sink,

An encouraging nod, an enthusiastic wink, might do more than you think.

So go and spread a good mood, and know someone has it worse than you,

Lift them up, make them smile, take away their "blue".

Please don't forget to giggle, act silly and care-free,

Don't regret the moments, be still or stressed like me.

And last but not least, remember to love, don't bottle up your hate,

Show her in everything you do, and for my sake- please don't wait.
