Some Days

Still some days I look at
My phone with longing hope.
I know it’s unhealthy and will never happen,
Some days that’s just how I cope.

Still some nights I stay up late and
Write breakup poems about you.
I know I’m fantasizing the past,
The thoughts just seem to flow and feel so true.

Some days I’m often tempted to
Look you up, somehow.
I remember that mistake. Can still
See your smiling faces ... even now.

I keep my head up and
Continue to put one foot in front of the another.
Some days I feel okay, and your face
I don’t care to remember.

Other days it seems your smile
Comes far to quick and easy.
Don’t have much else left,
Of the times when we were so happy.

I know someday the pain will fade and
The world won’t seem so dark and blue.
I won’t need your memories to get by, and I can say,
Finally I made it through.

** Kay, I had you in mind while writing this for some reason. Thinking of you reminds me to be strong. Thank you. And thank you DivineCaroline for providing me the opportunity to meet Kay. **

:) Well i'm glad you liked it Kay, and I'm glad you could get some kind of peace from my poem. :) I know it's hard but you gotta work on this negativity girl...:) I find strength in thinking of you because you have been through so much, have learned so much, and still yearn to be a better person and do the right thing and show your children how much you love them. I don't get strength from your life...I get strength thinking of what a strong woman YOU are....but whatever way that makes you feel better we can go with that. :) Take care!

Zoey, funny thing is as I'm reading this I was finding strength and felt peace...then I read your note at the end...and cried...I loved it. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily. I too, appreciate the the introduction. And if you find strength in my really really messed up life, it somehow makes it a little less...I don't know...messed up? Its just good knowing something good is comming of it. Thank you
