To these words and their meaning I call you,
May their message at least give you pause:
When the end of all things comes to name you,
May this war have a meaningless cause?
The scars of our anger grow deeper;
In a shadow of sorrow we wait.
Is the circle of vengeance forever?
Are we proud of the picture we paint?
I wonder if truth has a bylaw,
Of one thing or ten things or none.
I wonder if words become more,
Than murmurs or carvings in stone.
As these dark times around us unravel,
May wisdom come first to your mind.
And whatever the road that you travel,
May peace be the treasure you find.
May the blood in your veins never bind you,
Never pain you, nor lead you to strife.
May it never delude, shame or blind you,
To this magnificent mystery called life.
What's it's all about
Nonsense really. Nothing more than my daily ramblings and bad poetry ;D

Hmmm.
There have been a lot of things happening lately for me.. For instance, 4/23 was professional administrative day or secretary's day or something. And I work as an admin for Kittelson & Associates and they are literally the nicest people I have EVER met. They NEVER get mad if you mess something up they just correct you on what you did wrong and are so forgiving of clutzes like yours truly. ANYWAY! Back to what I was talking about, there is this day that is about celebrating the administrators of America. There are 2 others that are admins in this company and they went all out! We had a fancy lunch completely paid for, fancy ass chocolates and gift cards to the movies for $30 a piece and I card with everyone writing in messages for you! Don't get me wrong I was extremely flattered and very grateful (I almost cried. I AM LOVED! XD) But it's weird to me because I'm being rewarded this much for just doing my job? So I found that a little strange. But those chocolates were divine. God that was good stuff. And with my movie gift card I went to see Noah last night, it was intense. It was absolutely not the story you hear as a little kid. That would give children nightmares. It was really dark but it was also very good I thought, it really just showed how much we should be grateful for and what mankind went through at a time and we forgot about it. There are little things that we should be grateful for, to live and breathe and interact, that alone is a gift everyday.

More pointless poetry: Overboard
Thrown overboard, you were far out at sea.
Alone, in a world larger than you can see.
Nobody could reach; the rescues were in vain.
The loss was intolerable. Bitter, you remain.
You blame their envy. "His ego got in the way.
He is a distraction", or so they all say.
What a horror, oh, what a tragedy.
Thrown into the cold over vanity.
But fear not, darling. You still burn bright
Like the Hollywood stars, lost in the night.
Wounds take time, but they will heal.
Don't hold back, tell me how you feel.
So insecure and scared, a child overthrown.
You tell me, that you don't want to die alone.
I promise you, you don't have to.
Don't let go. I'll help pull you through.
I'll tend to you scars, and you'll get strong.
Better than before; You'll prove them wrong.
We'll have the last laugh, when they all see
The talent you encompass, let it be free.
I'll hold your hand every step of the way.
Until your voice is heard, come what may.
Our shadows will entwine; we become one.
It's never too late, just please hold on.
