"Make your inner critique shut up. It's giving me a head ach."


Look back on your life with
Open wide eyes and
View things as you did back then
Every sound, feeling, emotion, or thought

Let the present
Off of your shoulders and let it fall like rain to the dry ground
Vanish into a time in the past so that
Every drop of time falls to the ground of reality

For as you look upon your life, what do you see?
Alas, did you leave room for love?
The love that sweeps you off of your feet
Emotional and life changing.

Or has your

Fate been a much different kind were you could not
Allowing the feelings or emotion God gave you to let flow until only
The ventricles of your heart freezes up and the
Entry to you heart is closed forever.
