Is there any time left,
to start life again?
I know it will be different,
but I need a new friend.

Someone to talk with,
when trouble enters my mind.
Someone to console with,
when life turns unkind.

Not looking for marriage,
but someone to love,
to help me understand,
what lies above.

What's the purpose, in life?
What purpose, indeed.
When do you draw the line,
or just give up. You know, Cede.

Tranquil the night,
Busy the day.
Why do life's problems,
not go away?

Away from this time
when are bodies break,
our moral compass, bent,
and our souls are weak.

There is nothing, in this world,
about being bad or being good,
unless it's taken for granted,
simply misunderstood.

When your mind is open
and imagination runs free.
There is nothing to stop you,
unless it's not within thee.

When the light goes out,
in your body, thine.
When darkness creeps in,
you're no longer mine.

Love will flee,
when your heart breaks.
It's that simple,
that's all it will take.

Deal with loss,
by changing your way.
It's not the only fix,
but it may stay.

A sadness,
overcomes us,
when a child dies.

What tragedy
awaits us.
How must we
grieve?

My heart breaks,
for this sadness,
which you will endure.
May God bless you.

Your family,
in this, your
time needed,
to love her more.

Go find the folly in the World.
Mark everyday as a reference,
before long you will
see you built a fence.

You chose your role, in this life,
by whom you pretend to be,
for we are but temporary actors,
in this, the life we see.

Practice being civil to other
actors in this world with thee,
for good relationships, is the reward,
to you, when practicing civility.

"A human being is a living constellation of contradictions, mostly opaque to itself. “Inward secret creatures,” Iris Murdoch called us in reckoning with the blind spots of our self-knowledge"... More at The Marginalian ➜

Life is a journey,
a long struggle, for most.
Solving life's riddles,
happens when you're a Ghost.

Take care of yourself.
Do everything good,
from exercise to eating,
be informed as you should.

Of this I am certain,
from this I know,
if you don't step forward,
you've nowhere to go.

In the beginning,
take one step at a time.
Have some cheese and crackers
and a bottle of wine.
