Too Quick

Time keeps on ticking, She feels that it's too fast
Yet, there's nothing she can do execpt Heal her harsh past
Everythings blurry now, Away from near sight
She wonders if ever again Will she battle this same fight
He treated her with such anger, Never touched her with his heart
Anything but loving, Can she make a clean start?
She reaches for love, but Reaches not far enough
He's not any better, Everything seems much too tough
Endless broken promises Drives a nail through her soul
Revealing his Inside as a darkening hole
Marriage is out but Times running out too quick
Ashamed of her mistakes, Nonetheless it continues to tick.


Written by Melissa Woomer


I wrote this poem one night after my best friend, Tyesha Sherman, asked me to write a poem about her. It's a brief description of her past marriage and of her current boyfriend. She loves this poem.

The Pain Love Causes

My eyes have seen the pain loves causes
Cross the lines of hatrid
Crossed lines that may never be crossed again
Is it just me that sees the pain?
He seems happy with his new love
Only I see the ain of the
Crossed lines Love-Hatrid
Rain falls upon my cheeks
Tears fall from the sky
My heart falss deeper and deeper
My life slowly drifts apart
When will this all be over?
Everyone sees the pain
All have tried to help
Over and over again
Loves come, loves go
Raining down upon the dry county
Over the cakes of dried mud
In my heart
In my soul
My eyes have seen the pain love causes
Seen the hearts that have been destroyed
Everything seems so sad
Everything - Since it's happened to me

Sometimes

Sometimes it starts as I cross the bridge over the swampy River Neuse. Other times it starts as I turn the corner to the street of my abode. most tmes it begins about when I see the fluttering pinions of the car lots, the blue and white flags reflecting off the high shine of new automobiles.

The mind in my head drifts from the days works and trials. From the good times with my friend or family. The image of what could be interrupts these thoughts, like the warnings and tidings of storms to come during TV broadcasts. There is no ignoring it, as if themorbid curiousity that causes traffic to slow at car collisions binds you to it.

Where does the hope for the hopeless come from? Is it a grown thing? Like the discovery of blue blotches on bread left too long? Frivolity of the well of depression trying to escape the reality with... "Ah if it could be so..." Where does this scenario erupt from that every evening, this flash of dream invades my soul?

What does one do that sows the bitter seed, tends the rank vine, harvests the grapes of wrath as it were... Crushing and preserving them as if to get a fine dark wine after fermenting in the cellar of pain and remorse. To be Tormented by the Hope of what probably will never be...

What can one do to resolve such a merry-go-round of emotion. To want to reslove the agony, to erase what went wrong... but stains are almost always indelble. How I wish I was as easily programable as this computer that I type this passage upon. How could I possibly regain happiness through the same avenue where Pain and Betrayal rode through astride their steeds Misery and Devastation.

Faith and Love can overcome all. What a beautiful thing. The very ellusive creature of song. Oh! the great bards of all time sung of such loves. I wished that everyone could believe in such as I. The tradegy is not many people can, they simply can't believe that love can be that strong. 'Love can move  mountains..'? Not trusting love can voporize continents of souls.

I wish that it would never start at all.... Peace of not being disappointed by runaway impossible wishes of......

Whoever came up with this one must have had some divine guidance, I was impressed!

Alphabet

Although things are not perfect
Because of trial or pain
Continue in thanksgiving
Do not begin to blame
Even when the times are hard
Fierce winds are bound to blow
God is forever able
Hold on to what you know
Imagine life without His love
Joy would cease to be
Keep thanking Him for all the things
Love imparts to thee
Move out of "Camp Complaining"
No weapon that is known
On earth can yield the power
Praise can do alone
Quit looking at the future
Redeem the time at hand
Start every day with worship
To "thank" is a command
Until we see Him coming
Victorious in the sky
We'll run the race with gratitude
Xalting God most high
Yes, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad, but...
Zion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

"I AM Too blessed to be stressed!" The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the distance between your knees and the floor. The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything. Love and peace be with you forever, Amen.

PS: GOD LOVES YOU...PASS THE WORD ON TO MORE FRIENDS AND ASK THEM TO CONTINUE TELLING OTHERS THAT GOD LOVES THEM TOO. JUST THINK OF HOW MANY PEOPLE THAT COULD BE REACHED OUT TO AND BLESSED WITH THESE WORDS.
