among the few

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: June 18, 2008

even in a crowded area
your presence speaks silent demands
your confidence is felt
and there’s integrity in the way you stand
your hands gently behind your back
feet shoulder width apart
your eyes full of desire command attention
before the conversation even starts
when dressed in the ensemble
your entire demeanor is changed
as if each layer of clothing
wont allow you to stay the [...]

detached

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: February 7, 2008

pain is to blame
and seperation
thats what you fear
or is that what you run to??
tears building seas
too deep to swim in
and so i drown
attempting to save your heart
from waters that never end
daggers of hurt
pierce thru broken hearts
and this is what seperated you from God??
or simply what seperates you
from the soul of angels on earth
detached are the [...]

my tomorrow…

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: February 7, 2008

tossed

along with the dreams

that his tiny mind

couldn’t even begin to formulate

because his dream

was what they dreamed

but their dreams

aspirations

couldnt take him very far

tossed

suffocating in oceans of pain

that even his smile couldnt cure

hearts are at war

arms reach out

hoping to grab onto

this fragile life

before it becomes too late

outstretched hands

strive to catch

frail limbs

that have given way to the wind

i [...]

come join me

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: November 19, 2007

come join me in a dinner
lit by candles and the stars
come join me in a walk
and only time can tell us how far
come join me in a dance
our hearts can play the beat
come join me at a picnic for two
mini sandwiches and fruit to eat
come join me in romance
more beautiful than anything before
come join me [...]

old you

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: October 16, 2007

if i could go anywhere
i’d go back in time
when nothing mattered
and we were living the life
i would go back to the craziness
if it meant seeing a smile on your face
because you are not yourself
and no one could take your place
i would go back to the days, rather the nights
that we sat on my rooftop
and we [...]

I hug the air that lingers between us
and I blow kisses at the wind
praying that one day
they would reach you.
i tell secrets in the night
and read bedtime stories
like you are supposed to do.
I spend my days praying
that my knight in shining armor
will not be like you.
I take time out for dreams
that end with me saying I [...]

we dance circls around words
and draw lines through emotions
and we never once
really talk about it
but we know
that we feel the same way
love is not somethig
that can be erased
nor is something
that can be overlooked
but it has proven to us
that it can be changed
and we accept this
whole heartedly
because this is the only thing
that we have to hold [...]

just plain love

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: June 7, 2007

we have loved
in every way
imaginable
we have found solace
in seperation
and now in compromise
we have angered
and we have hurt
and we have no regrets
we have loved
deeply
sincerely
this force that binds
has taken over our bodies
like an uncureable disease
seeking its revenge
and we have beat it
we have escaped
one anothers wrath
and embraced something
that is stronger than anything
we have ever known
and now we stand
holding [...]

why is the sky blue??

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: June 6, 2007

i dont understand you
and i dont want you to understand me
because our misunderstandings
keep us seperated
and the last thing that I want
is to be connected to you
subtle questions keep us at a distance
why are the rainbows colorful
and why is the sky blue?
There is no explanation
for the things that you do
and you cant find a reason
to excuse [...]

scars

Posted by: Tanae' A. on: May 30, 2007

her scars tell a story
of hurt and pain 
many cried tears
these fine lines explain
they tell stories
of hardships and struggles
they show that she has survived
problems and troubles
her scars tell stories
of how she made it through
they are a fraction of her testimony
that sit in plain view
scars cause smiles
to invade the space of tears
they show strength
and the overcoming of [...]

What I Write About

This Bible Verse Caught My Attention

Philippians 4:12:: I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.

Life Lessons By Carrie Underwood

There's some things that I regret, Some words I wish had gone unsaid, Some starts, That had some bitter endings, Been some bad times I've been through, Damage I cannot undo, Some things, I wish I could do all all over again, But it don't really matter, Life gets that much harder, It makes you that much stronger, Oh, some pages turned, Some bridges burned, But there were, Lessons learned. [Chorus:] And every tear that had to fall from my eyes, Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night, Every change, life has thrown me, I'm thankful, for every break in my heart, I'm grateful, for every scar, Some pages turned, Some bridges burned, But there were lessons learned. There's mistakes that I have made, Some chances I just threw away, Some roads, I never should've taken, Been some signs I didn't see, Hearts that I hurt needlessly, Some wounds, That I wish I could have one more chance to mend, But it don't make no difference, The past can't be rewritten, You get the life you're given, Oh, some pages turned, Some bridges burned, But there were, Lessons learned. [Chorus:] And every tear that had to fall from my eyes, Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night, Every change, life has thrown me, I'm thankful, for every break in my heart, I'm grateful, for every scar, Some pages turned, Some bridges burned, But there were lessons learned. And all the things that break you, Are all the things that make you strong, You can't change the past, Cause it's gone, And you just gotta move on, Because it's all, Lessons learned. [Chorus:] And every tear that had to fall from my eyes, Everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night, Every change, life has thrown me, I'm thankful, for every break in my heart, I'm grateful, for every scar, Some pages turned, Some bridges burned, But there were lessons learned, Oh, some pages turned, Some bridges burned, But there were lessons learned, Lessons learned.
