I don't want to be around drama, pressure or stress.

All I really want is feeling connected to nature, spread goodness for a living, be surrounded by loved ones and create beautiful memories

I woke up this morning feeling low and pretty blue
My mind couldn’t move on from when I left you
You fill me with anxiety and make my breathing fast
I honestly didn’t know how long I could last

My heart was racing and I was jumping out of my skin
These thoughts I have would make you give in
I thought we had departed in the kindest of ways
And you wouldn’t return to me after that day.

I hope when I awoke and pull my covers back,
that my mind would be back to normal and I wouldn’t feel any lack
But here I am with you again causing another stir
This is so difficult and truly hard to bear

It really is quite tortuous and really embarrassing too.
Especially when you are in line, waiting in a que.
You think possibly the worst-case scenarios of all
And it really makes you want to bang your head of a wall.

Whatever will go wrong will definitely go wrong for me
This is what I truly deep down believe
I think the worse case scenario all day long
Oh how I wish I could be more strong

You ruminate, catastophise and procrastinate too
Oh how I wish it would take it’s cue
To leave me to live the rest of my days in peace
For all of this overthinking to cease

Suffering from bouts of anxiety is a truly debilitating time
It stops you in your tracks and makes you crave some wine.
If only I could drink all these little thoughts away,
And wake up tomorrow to a brand new day

How can I say goodbye to you, this time truly forever
So you can no longer make my heart and mind quiver
You really have a knack at disturbing my day
Now I just wish all this horribleness would simply go away

Our relationship hasn’t been healthy in a very long time
I wish you all the best but in the meantime
So please, please Mr Anxiety, it’s time for us to part
This time I truly hope that I let you go from my heart

I wrote this wee poem thinking of anyone who suffers from anxiety

If you don't pick a day to rest and relax.... your body will pick it for you

Some days you just don't feel like yourself.

Sometimes you just need to take 5 mins to spend some time with you
To check in ... to ask yourself how do you feel this morning?

Every day we spend so much time making sure everyone in our lives are ok. Your kids, Your partner, Your friends, Your work colleagues, Your Family but when do you ask yourself "Are you ok?"

Back Home

If I had the power to turn back the clock,
and go back to that house at the end of the block.
The house that was home when I was a kid,
I know that I’d love it more now than I did.

If I could be back there at my mothers knee,
and hear once again,the things she told me.
I’d listen now as I never listened before,
for she knew so well what life had in store.

And all the advice my dad used to give…
his voice I’ll remember as long as I live.
But it didn’t seem really important then,
what I’d give to live it all over again.

What I’d give for the chance I once had,
to do so much more for my mom and dad.
To give them more joy and little less pain,
a little more sunshine-a lot less rain.

But years roll on and i cannot go back,
weather I was born in a mansion or a shack.
I can start right now in the hour that’s here,
to do something more for the ones I hold dear.

And since time in its flight is traveling so fast,
I can’t spend it regretting that which is past.
But i’ll try to make tomorrow a happier day,
By doing my Good unto Others…Today

A Little Poem For Seniors, so true it hurts!

Another year has passed
And we're all a little older.
Last summer felt hotter
And winter seems much colder.

There was a time not long ago
When life was quite a blast.
Now I fully understand
About 'Living in the Past'

We used to go to weddings,
Football games and lunches ...
Now we go to funeral homes
And after-funeral brunches.

We used to go out dining,
And couldn't get our fill.
Now we ask for doggie bags,
Come home and take a pill.

We used to often travel
To places near and far.
Now we get sore asses
From riding in the car.

We used to go to nightclubs
And drink a little booze.
Now we stay home at night
And watch the evening news.

That, my friend is how life is,
And now my tale is told.
So, enjoy each day and live it up ...
Before you're too damned old!

Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it q***r
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there is some mistake.
The only other sound’s the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
