Father & lover I should need be no other

Poetic Dan

I'm sorry for all that you miss
Not being able to show you
Every thought, you're in it.

 

That our worlds can not play
More than handfuls of days
With hugs that remind us
Of what words can not say

 

I try my hardest
Sometimes I fail
Seeing the negative
No need to inhale

 


She told me she fell in love with the person I am, not who I could be.
Obviously I had to take on the voice that kicked in "they all say this but time changes everything" for this you maybe right, the only thing we can do is not lose sight!

 

Sight of that person who is happy to be you, waking up in the morning knowing you are the living proof, that happiness is now not a place to get to.

 

There's always something worth crying for but so much more is worth laughing towards.
Towards the future from the past, needing to enjoy this moment is what I have to keep reminding myself.

    I do enjoy the message. Keep the future in mind but not at the cost of the happiness you currently have. My dad always used to say, "The more you laugh the longer you live." Maybe he's right though.
    Another thing to add, a saying I came up with when I was younger. "Never give up silver for a chance to find gold." That pertains to the aspect of enjoying your happiness that you mentioned. I really like this one, Dan. Keep your chin up, and best regards in your endeavor to maintain that balance.

      And to you my friend and I will take that silver saying to my inner bank, hopefully it will help keep that balance in searching for.
      Really appreciated thank you!

      And now a spurious saying not to be taken on board: 'When one door opens, another one slams in ya face!' heehee.

      • Poetic Dan

        That it does!
        Always appreciated

        I think you know where i'm coming from on this sort of stuff before i say anything. You is you and there's no one else like you. Same for everyone else. And you've as much right to be whatever you are as anyone else has.
        Advice? my advice would be... smile lots.... dont bash your head jumping through van windows... and be positive..... nuff said?
        Mines a pint.
