All of them were guessing, 
Wondering if it had really been the truth.
But, in the end, it didn’t matter.
Because they were just very bright and happy about the truth.

She takes her time, goes slow

The tree of time has many leaves
She bathes him in their glow

She wonders what he’ll do in life
The things that he will see

The leaves are slowly falling
She wonders who he’ll be

Each leaf is filled with longing
With potential to be more

She has no doubt in her little boy
Even when she's gone forevermore

One day when he's older 
He'll return back to this place

He'll catch the leaves falling to the ground
Try to keep them all in place

And yet time is a desperate wonder
Once started it cannot be stopped

What you do with it is up to you
And the memories in your heart

That you will care unconditionally for me

That even on bad terms you will be their for me
Even on days were I told you I hate you out of spite you still love me 

That even on my most embarrassing moments you will still walk beside me 

That even on days I feel ugly you will still love me

When you told me you love me you unspokenly promised me that you will love me through the good the bad and ugly 

Love the Unspoken promise

Love is taught to be a gift,
Love is taught to be a beautiful feeling
That only some people get
Love is taught to be special

Love is taught that if you do not
Experience love then you
Have lived a sad life
I think if you haven't experienced love then
You’re One of the lucky ones

Love is an unspoken curse
Love is the worst drug of all
Love is painful
Love is depressing
Love is restricting

Love is an unspoken curse
Love is confusing
Love makes you do stupid things
Love can distract you
Love can break you

Love is an unspoken curse
Love can make you see the best
In someone even when you know
They’re no good
Love will blind you

Love is an unspoken curse
Love is taught to be so special
Love will make you think it’s worth it
Love will trick you into thinking 
They love you too

Love is an unspoken curse.

Heart of stone
No emotion 
No indication of caring
Blank face 
Begging for a bit of reassurance
But get nothing back. 
So we all tell him
What a heart of stone he has
but when he shows the side of him
oh what a beautiful sight it is 
but still i say what a heart of stone he has

of death
as all my predecessors have before
i wonder not what trials it has in store
indeed, i think and wonder, nevermore
and slowly, slowly, i'm laid down to rest
the soft brown earth is cool beneath my back
and fading, my last thought fading away
i wonder if i ever will be back]]> 2021-09-30 17:33:03 UTC https://padlet.com/katiejmayfield/dmgmwyw37yfo29ei/wish/1782143363 Beauty is a maddening curve-ball of confusion- Sean https://padlet.com/katiejmayfield/dmgmwyw37yfo29ei/wish/1782144568 The man that who is sought after by everyone still sees imperfections and flaws. The woman who tries to fix everything fails to realize what she is gifted with. 
Nobody can meet the unthinkably high ceiling that is what beauty is. 
Wherever someone goes, 
they always fail to meet the mark of beauty.

A battle between good and evil .
A great battle between wrong and right .
Each answer deciding a different path .

My soul was a divided wasteland . The mind wanting  one while the heart wants another .
Will i really be effect with what is wrong and right ?

Covered with deep scars 
It was torn apart
Now close off cover with bars

Her trust was broken
Now she is untrusting
Some many times she been left heartbroken
But because of him the bars are now rusting

Her scar were healing
The curse of 7 years had 
The heart that he was stealing
Her broken heart was now suspended

It consumes and festers. Setting one down a path, weltering. 
It sparks a desire for more. To take from other, 
But avarice is how she feel whole. ]]> 2021-09-30 17:40:38 UTC https://padlet.com/katiejmayfield/dmgmwyw37yfo29ei/wish/1782163668 Happiness is a glorified curve-ball Jesus Love https://padlet.com/katiejmayfield/dmgmwyw37yfo29ei/wish/1782168619 Happiness could be the meaning for living, to find the beauty in the ugly, however
Happiness can make you promise something that you might regret later, however
Happiness could be the greatest feeling any human being can ever feel, however
Happiness is a curse, a curve-ball that makes you act out of character, however
Happiness is a curse, a glorified thing that every person is striving for, however
Happiness is a curse, a glorified thing that no one is striving for, however
Happiness can change your perspective of how you view the world
Happiness can cause people to kill
Happiness can cause people to love
Is happiness really that worth it?
No one truly knows

Except we look into the mirrors not to see our reflection but to reflect upon ourselves.

Our successes, our mistakes, our moments of laughter or failure. Each past moment has a place, a mirror that rests on our mind’s shelves.

Some mirrors are magnificent and treasured, others are trashed or even broken as we forget them. Regardless, we keep them on our shelves and acquire new mirrors.

No matter what mirrors we have, or what mirrors we wish to have but never get, we can never truly discard them even if one’s glass has a few stains or errors.
