Enough is enough

Poetic Dan



It could be there but it will never come, the day of acknowledgement for what went on. 

 

I've sat, I've walked, had a good cry and plenty of talks 

 

Yet never with the two soul that were ment to be in control. 

 

To the scared little boy on top of the stairs, hoping none of this energy comes near. 

 

To the teenager then wrapped up in rage, unable to confront or turn a page 

 

Now as an adult undertaking methods to engage 

 

For everything that happened may of made me this way

Still undoing what nature never planned in the first place 

 

The need for acknowledgement and an over-controlling man 

 

Having to learn to breathe through all my emotions again, or my whole body will eventually go bang. 

 

This is something I can't rush or even try to crush. It's between every moment that can never be touched. 

 

To know the sacred feeling of enough is enough, when using the greatest muscle to keep the blood flushed 

 

The spirit in my heart may never forgive but its needs to love, so I write from the soul to never give this up. 

 

Good bye to reality of it happening to us!

    Great video, lovely to see that beautiful girl growing up.

    In your post you are telling of the need to recall the past. The longer you keep doing this, then the longer it will haunt you. Try to let it be where it belongs, in the dim distant past..... so far removed from all the love and wholesomeness which surrounds you now. Ask yourself what are you, today's man or yesterday's problems.

    • Poetic Dan

      What comes up must come out and after a beating that was received in a so called "professional" hands, it had to be said. Yet the difference in writing it this time, I didn't get upset. I did feel finally separate from it and even today I wrote of the beauty in my world.

      So in ac way you was right, what you read there was still a part of yesterday's man. But it's only ever a moment because today I'm super Dan ( just a bit saw)

      Always appreciate your time and honoured to be given all your words over the years.

      Bring me proud to be me as you should to be you!

        Just to confirm to myself I'm trying to truly let go, the beautiful lady underneath saw it on the words in the video!

        Cheers buddy, hope you got that call

        Dan,

        Of course you will never forget what you experienced in the past. I’m so glad to know that you’ll never give up.

        “memories to hold on to as much as their love, let life be the gift that help us to Dance.”

        ~Poetic Dan


        Now is the time to forge ahead with your present blessings…
        “Let your crew set you free”…

        Look at your latest blessing…she’s a sight to behold. You’re looking at the future…guide your crew to be what you never had as a youngster. A perfect opportunity to make it right. Your three children are your blessings. Guide them to the best of your ability to make this world a better place to be part of. You are a strong and determined young man who can do it…YES YOU CAN…YES YOU CAN!!

        Thank you for sharing the video. I enjoyed it very much.

        I’m so glad to read your poetry…now that I’m able to again.

              Though never far behind, the past is just the past. What you've learned from that past is your fuel for a better future. You're a man, and a proud man at that. Look around you, see all the strength the builds you strong. And a great write too. ; )

              • Poetic Dan

                Sometimes to proud my friend but I'm slowly learning.

                Always appreciated

                Expressive writing Dan ) good to write this out . It’s upsetting to have a sad past that hurts us .. and it causes grief . The inner child needs healing . Do you ever give yourself a hug ?

                • Poetic Dan

                  I thought of your words last night and as pain kicked in, I breathed in with that hug in mind.

                  Truly thank you for your time my friend

                • Saxon Crow

                  Dan awesome expression here. I'm not going to share my opinion with you because it's already there in your poem.

                  • Poetic Dan

                    Ha! Now that is a message I love, my inner child said thank you for helping clear up the blood.
                    With words that come from the heart, told ya, Saxon Crow should never stop!

                    Appreciate the love

                  • Doggerel Dave

                    Yes Dan - Here from the first post on It's all said already - in your own words, 'enough is enough", so from now on it will surely be: forward ever forward.

                    PS: that skateboard video> I'm trying to write a piece on the seaside right now after that but it is very slow - can you beat me to the draw?

                    • Poetic Dan

                      Quicker than the wild west, the beat of my heart puts my breath to the test. Yet to be rolling with my crew will always be the best!

                      • Poetic Dan

                        Really enjoyed that and think I'll keep it!

                        • Doggerel Dave

                          So you should - it was great: and what about the rest?

                          • Poetic Dan

                            It went on in my head but way to many things to do instead...

                            Always going it hard to stop lol

                          • Goldfinch60

                            That past is now behind you, you have come such a long way in to a better life Dan, keep moving forward into that better life.
