I wish I would
stay angry
the way they say
I should
But I’ve learned
that letting go
Poems, poets, poetry, writing, poetry challenges
By Bree Leto – Secret Thoughts Within and Charles Robert Lindholm – The Reluctant Poet
There are many things you can’t control
Your heart
Another’s heart
no matter how much you might want to
It is a fact of life that
hopes and wishes
dreams and prayers
don’t always happen or come to pass
We may have relationships and love
that we have always dreamed of
but sometimes
happenstance
fate or luck
intervene and force a change
to our plans and choices
Not all relationships
are meant to be forever
sometimes they are only meant
to be for awhile
There may be many things you can’t control
but there are some things you can
Maybe it’s time to dream a new dream
It might be time to
move on
forgive and forget
let go
and follow your own pathway
into a new and better life

Resistance Is A Self Taught Way
A Means Of Self-Defense
To Stay True To Oneself
And What One Believes
A Wall, A Shield
Preventing Being
Caught Up In Messes Made By Others
My Mind Is Full Of Dreams,
Visions And Memories
Replaying Them
Over And Over Again
In My Head
What Once Was,
No Longer Exists,
There Is Only Ashes
Left Behind From Miserable Days
But I Resist
Lies And Hopelessness
Knowing Darkness Will End
When The Light Of Truth Shines
And Rainbows Promise
Better Days
And Hope

Under The Spell
Of A Lover’s Moon
Her Heart Was
Once Broken
With The Foolish
Dreams And Lies
Of Youth
And Young Love
She No Longer Cries
For What Was Lost
And Could Have Been
So Long Ago,
Except In The Midnight Light
Of A Lover’s Moon
When Forgotten
Memories Escape
Her Heart And
Invade Her Dreams
She Found
The Strength
Inside Her
Heart And Soul
To Stand Up
To Forgive
To Forget
To Let Go
And To Move On
She Looked Around
And Found
A Different Path
For Her Life
That Is Her Own
The One She Shares
With Her Daughter
