May we be blessed to hold onto this thought
Each morning as we step out our front door:
that whatever we choose to do today
is something
our future self will thank us for.

As we rise each morning to welcome a new day
a day that’s never before been seen…
we wonder how much of this day will be extraordinary
and how much will be routine.
And though I love when extraordinary things happen…

starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled You Let Me Go.....2 1 week ago
You let me go like I was
nothing. Like I was just a chapter
you decided to close without
rereading. Like I was a choice
you made in the past, but never
wanted in your future.
You didn't fight for us.
You didn't ask for more time.
You didn't... [read more] |
starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled Unpopular Opinion 1 week ago
I don't think "the one" exists.
I think there are people
who were right for us...
at the wrong time.
People we could've built a life
with if things had been different.
But life isn't built on potential.
It's built on choices.
And sometimes the... [read more] |
starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled Stop Blaming The Person Who Left 1 week ago
Everyone judges the
person who walks away.
Nobody questions what
happened before they left.
Maybe they communicated for months.
Maybe they gave second chances.
Maybe they stayed long after
they should have.
Maybe leaving wasn't giving up.
Maybe... [read more] |
starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled YOU LET ME GO 1 week ago
You let go,
but did you ever
fight to keep me?
If I wasn't enough,
why did you stay
so long?
People leave when
it's easier,
not when you
deserve better.
You say you needed
space, or did you
just need freedom
from me?... [read more] |
starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled You 1 week ago
You smiled when you wanted to scream.
You stayed when you wanted to leave.
You loved when you were barely being loved back.
You held on when everything in you was begging to let go.
You gave your all to people who gave you pieces.
And now, you're... [read more] |

A recent immigrant who calls himself Norm
Says 'This system's in need of reform
Where I'm from, no one would force me
Not like here, in a detention center they'll toss me
Because I refuse to fill out a 'Change of Address' form

starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled The Harshest Relationship Truth 1 week ago
You can be loyal.
You can be honest.
You can give someone your whole heart.
And they can still choose someone else.
Not because you're not enough.
Not because you failed.
But because people don't always
choose what's best for them.
They choose what... [read more] |
starlover2103 posted a new Poem titled Mama 1 week ago
Be incredibly proud of yourself.
Not just for the things people see.
Be proud of the nights you stayed
up worrying about your children.
The mornings you got out of bed
exhausted and showed up anyway.
The sacrifices no one noticed.
The healing you... [read more] |

# Every Song Is Trauma
**Verse 1**
I watched my whole world disappear,
Like smoke drifting through the atmosphere.
One by one, the lights went out,
Now all that's left is fear and doubt.
The pictures fade but the scars remain,

I miss you
I miss us too
The way we used to be
The way we laughed
Before my tears
Before my mind, broke me
I'm holding on to pieces
That somehow, fell apart
I promise, I will mend myself
And nurse, this bleeding heart
