Terrible Things

Terrible things have happened 
Terrible things 
Terrible things live
Exist. 

We must live
Trying
Not to harbour 
But
Eliminate
Those terrible things.

Not hear, feel 
Allow
Those awful 
Awful
Terrible things.

Let The Memories Thrive

Let the memories thrive
In my head, my heart
Our lives.

Let them not control
The moments now
Nor allow me to live a lie.

But exist with their thoughts
To survive, to strive
To be alive.

Magnificent Is The World

 

 

 

 

Magnificent is the world
if you allow it to be.
