Mind v heart and Simplicity poems with some more poems

Mind v heart

My mind wants my heart to be cold wants my heart to be dark
My heart says its too bold says its too smart
My mind tells my heart to not care to live for the moment
My heart says I'm here because One cared so I cannot condone it
My mind tells my heart just to hurt her there will be so many others
My heart says God blessed not cursed you with her, so do right by your child's mother
My mind tells my heart for just once be the bad guy who finished first
My heart says that's the exact thinking that has corrupted the Earth

 

Simplicity

There's a few times when you think you're ready

few times when you think you know. 
Lots of times you question
lots of times you fail to show.
Yet living is taking that one chance
to take that one dance
and that's why we keep hope.

Actions speak louder- but apologies are often verbalized.
 It's easier to imagine and dream than it is to look reality in the eye. 
But we all have dreams and even in your reality they can come true. 
Just make sure they're  your dreams and not ones others have for you.

The Next Stop

I love it when they come and go

See that's a life that I'm familiar

Just wanted to let you know

So things don't seem peculiar

 

Every stop has a different opportunity 

Nothing lasts for ever- this is not new to me

So carpe diem or seize the day

I'll offer my per diem- and lead the way

 

The next stop the next chance to win

The chance to start over another chance to end

Another chance to begin 

Another chance to beg for them to let you in 

 

The next failure - I saw you in disguise 

It's a fake exterior I'm glad u can't see inside

But it's cool to have hope

And there's still room on my rope 

 

The next stop means patience and u hate waiting

Especially when u feel u have other options awaiting

Your arrival - you got here by survival

All things happen for a reason - you believe in the Bible

 

The next stop could be the awakening you need

Or it could be the stop after the next few and you could be full of greed

To keep looking for the next stop because you're not satisfied

Welcome to this stop - the poem written by I

 

Darkest days .. Longest nights

In my darkest day

In my longest night

On my knees I pray

That I'll be alright 

Is this the end of day

The end of my light ?

Waiting for God to say

"My son things will get right"

 

Not worried bout girls not worried bout fun

Just want a healthy day - so far I've had none 

The things I thought that mattered

Like a mirror they all have shattered

Feel like I'm stuck with bad luck

Thoughts about giving it up

Thoughts about giving in

Feels like I've had enough 

But I know I can win if I just stay strong

The light is ahead in the tunnel if you hold on 

 

In my darkest day

In my longest night

On my knees I pray

That I'll be alright 

Is this the end of day

The end of my light ?

Waiting for God to say

"My son things will get right"

 

Not worried bout wealth 

Just worried bout health

Those material wishes can get stuck on a shelf

I'm worried bout self

I'm worried bout everyone else

A pain I've never felt 

Guess it's the hand I've been dealt

But it's a reason to it-gotta find silver lining 

It's a season to it - God is doing designing 

Maybe its refining 

To a cleanser soul

Still in my youth getting encouragement  from the old 

That I'll be strong again 

That I'll be me again

Keep Him on my side and I'm destined to win 

My thoughts went dark and I can't figure me out

Tears in my eyes as I replied this is what came out :

Is this my darkest day?

Is this my longest night?

On my knees as I pray

That I'll be alright 

Is this the end of day

The end of my light ?

Then I heard God say

"My son things will get right"

Disguised Angel

There's a such thing as an angel in disguise

Comes as a surprise when it's from an unfamiliar set of eyes

U never know who is out there to help 

And it's refreshing when someone puts you before themselves

Puts you before anybody else

 

Treats you like you are family

When you're too weak to stand tall they say "u can lean on me"

Help you when you're warm help you when you're cold

Help you when you're sick 

Helpful when you feel old

Won't take compliments because it's too much

The biggest thanks is seeing you get well enough 

Not into your money not into your gifts

Her biggest thanks is you being healthy and that's about it 

Such a pure soul such a delight

Wanting to make sure you get through another day and night alright 

Nothing like an angel by your side - together you can win 

She offers u her wings just to see u fly again 

 

The Illusion

I gave you all the finer things you wanted boo

And most of all you had someone who loved you

The reason why I wanted your love

Was because you were everything I dreamed of 

You were my girl you were my world

Would have given you the world

Til the end it wasn't pretend 

Girl we were best friends 

You promised to be mine for life

But as time went by your body took over your life 

You were my best friend

Can't believe we're at the end

And now through each day I look back and I say

It's messed up that you treated me this way

This game of love man- I don't even wanna play

And they say

Be patient until your time is up 

But I've waited long enough

My heart has been tough 

But no longer tough enough 

For all that I've been through

I was so damn into you 

But every time I try to get closer

I get the cold shoulder

Cause you dropped another bolder

On my heart - shoulda known from the start

Now I'm glad that we're apart

 

Cause I gave you all the finer things you wanted boo

And most of all you had someone who loved you

But never were the one and now I see

I'll never let another girl do that to me
