Enter The Poet - Always Hoping For The Best

Image
Amidst great places and wonderful fare, it is the soul beside you that turns a simple day into a memory that shines.

Enter The Poet - Leaving The Games To The Side

Relationships should not resemble a poker game; bluffing is a dangerous game, which may not end well for anyone. 

Enter The Poet - Speaking The Troublesome Words

In a world of lies, why tell the truth; maybe because it's what you believe should be done.

Enter The Poet - Trying To Be Better Than The Day Before

I am a work in progress, etched with flaws I have chosen to mend. For those who believe themselves already finished—a picture painted in 'perfection'—where does the next brushstroke go? You cannot heal a heart you believe is already whole.

Enter The Poet - Duplicating The Concept

Image
There is a universal drive for us to bond and to belong, but the true burden is the 'where' and the 'why'.

Enter The Poet - With Questions Which Remain

We all ache for the warmth of belonging, yet the questions remain; into which fold do we unite, and to what opinion do we kneel?

Enter The Poet - Absorbing The Glow Of The Sun

The day shines bright, in all of it splendor; I cave to its glory, in peaceful surrender.

Enter The Poet - Stressed For Success

It is not the clothes that matter, but the spirit and the fire within; I carry the hunger to succeed and the anxiety to prove it.

Enter The Poet - Often Interrupted

Image
There are days when I am neither looking for a puzzle nor a solution; days of this nature are often interrupted.

Enter The Poet - Unwillingly Tethered

There are seasons when I ache for a quiet moment; yet the world, sensing my longing for silence, stirs to keep me tethered to the noise.

Enter The Poet - Not Asking For A Refund

Sometimes a day is only a day, and the hours that drift by are treasure enough.

Enter The Poet - Bending To Intuition

Our eyes may see one thing and our ears may hear another; when our mind has to make a choice, we may decide based on what feels like the right course of action.

Enter The Poet - In Amazement Of The Confusion

Image
There are things in the world that are more complex than needed; relationships can be much easier, but it seems that is no one's goal.

Enter The Poet - Trying To Determine The Safer Direction

Some things are obvious, and some things are more opaque; let's hope the things that are not clear are not the things that can harm us the most.

Enter The Poet - Into A Room Full Of Hearts

Image
I celebrate you each moment, including this very day; I may fail tomorrow, hopefully your heart won't sway.

Enter The Poet - Verifiably Strained

There are days in which I am simply looking to break even with chance; I want enough good things to happen to justify the bad.

Enter The Poet - Looking For The Value

Image
Some days just come and go, and with them a portion of your life; I hope that any part of our life shared, will be worth the exchange.

Enter The Poet - On The Shores Of Why

We drift through the 'why' of what reaches us and the 'why' of what passes us by; I have no map for these waters—only a shared sense of awe and bewilderment.

The Poet Enters - Seeking A Clearer Explanation

We often wonder why we meet the people whom we meet, or why we feel   the way we feel; I have no answers, but I share your observations and bewilderment.

Enter The Poet - Doing Positive Work

I am working towards having a good day today; I hope you are here to help me achieve that goal.

Enter The Poet - With No Foreshadowing

Image
What started out as a call of distress turned into an evening of finesse: we cannot anticipate everything, and most times we can't foresee anything.

Enter The Poet - Reacting Normally

We can react to our emotions or the evidence presented and found; understanding the truth about something doesn't always make it easier to respond or react.

Enter The Poet - In Sacred Regard

Life and Time are rare and irreplaceable treasures; to squander even a moment is a quiet tragedy. Just as we guard our own hours from being wasted, we must hold the lives and days of others in sacred regard.

Enter The Poet - Getting Things Started

When we say that we care, what do we actually mean, and what do we actually do about it? If everyone else is always doing the inviting and starting, what do we bring to the table?

Enter The Poet - Caring While Sharing

Image
We all want to be understood, and we want people to care about our feelings and what matters to us. If we are being honest, are we providing that same consideration to those we care about and care about us?

Enter The Poet - Leaning Towards Compassion

People are different, even the people you choose to share your world with. If you are not willing to modify some opinions, some activities, or some choices, maybe you need to change the people you say you care about.

Enter The Poet - Available For Quiet Moments

If you are not accessible to the people you choose to spend time with, then what is the point? Is spending time together really such an effort or a sacrifice?

Enter The Poet - With A Good GPA

If you want credit in any relationship, grade yourself in these areas and see where you reside: Accessibility, Adaptability, Empathy, and Initiative. If you don't score high, you may have no score at all.
