Mirrors And Silence

Sarah Doughty

“No matter how much hatred you hold,
try looking in a mirror.”

Take all this blood, for I have no use of it any longer. Take all the tears, for they have filled oceans. Take all these thoughts, for they have lived, loved, and lost. But you can never take my heart or my soul, for that is what defines me. And no matter how much jealousy or hatred you hold for me, try looking in a mirror. Maybe then you’ll understand why you feel alone.

And maybe then
you’ll realize how
heartless you’ve been.

Value Life

~ thereluctantpoet

Confab With Me

Life is such a precious gift,
don’t waste it in complaining, grumbling, and whining
rather detest fear,
worry less,
live with a smile
and every day will then become a shade better than yesterday
and  blithe and calmness will be by your side,
for remember your best is yet to arrive
