i wish i always knew

Tristan Robert Lange


Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Healing is coming along, but now I am away for my job and will not be on as often as I wish I could be. So, I just thought I would put this out there as an explanation so people don’t think I’m flaking off or ghosting. Thank you for reading, engaging, and understanding. πŸ–€πŸ•―οΈπŸ¦΄πŸ™ See you intermittently and on the other side! Read, write, fucking rebel! 🀘😏
i wish i always knew
and was not new
to the idea
that i might just
have something significant
of veritable value
or worth
to openly offer
 
something so
unique
beautiful
and
desirable
that only i could offer it:
 
me

    Hey Orchi, I turned the lights on, mate! 😏

  • arqios

    You! That’s what you bring to us each and every single day. And that’s so much more than sufficient in terms of value, significance and worth. We haven’t been taught well enough that to merely show up is desirable and beautiful πŸ€©πŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

    • Tristan Robert Lange

      Amen, my brother. Amen. For each and everyone of of us. Amen. Thank you so much for your affirmation and your deep understanding of the poem and its meaning. Indeed, we all bring that gift to the world: ourselves. Well most of us...there are a few jerks out there that make me questions the soundness of this philosophy...but overall, it holds up! 🀣 Thanks again, my friend. Much appreciated!

        I know what you mean about the special cases…every garden has its weeds, and snakes, as it wereπŸ™πŸ»πŸ•Š

        • Tristan Robert Lange

          For sure!

        • sorenbarrett

          Knowing what one is and has to offer is key to valuing who you are. A beautiful write using alliteration as well as a wonderful message. If we had always known.

          • Tristan Robert Lange

            Indeed. If only we had, but at least we know now! Some never learn it, sadly. Very true, my friend. Thank you for your time and your comments of understanding. Much appreciated. πŸŒ„πŸ§ πŸŒΈπŸ™

            🀣 I love the humour in here and yes a very special soul you are. 🌹

            • Tristan Robert Lange

              Aww. Thank you Teddy! As are you, my friend. Glad the humor came through, too. Your time and your feedback are always appreciated. πŸŒ„πŸ§ πŸŒΈπŸ™

              Now I said Fido knows 99% of everything - except that thing you asked me on another poem! lol.
              Ahh, a light bulb flashed above your head, saying 'Idea'?!

              • Tristan Robert Lange

                LOL! Yes, you noticed! πŸ’‘πŸ€£ Tell Fido it's okay, you can't know everything.

              • Cheeky Missy

                ...there is just one you/Not twenty, or ten, or two/In all of the whole world through/God only made one YOU." How you remind me of that song from the 90's. Forsooth, while many before us have whatever, still you're you and there's only one you. I inherited much of my loving daddy, and of my loving mommy, but I'm not nor ever could be either of them. Beautiful isn't it? Adroitly rendered in strikingly eloquent brevity with excellent imagery and those delightful poetic effects such as rhyming, and the play on words etc. I love it. Thank you for sharing, dear Tristan.

                • Tristan Robert Lange

                  You are most welcome, dear Missy. Indeed, it is quite beautiful. Extremely beautiful. And yes, that is the beauty of God's creation, everyone made uniquely and yet all are created in God's image. Holy mystery and divine beauty. Thank you so much for your encouraging and deep feedback on my poem, my friend. Your time and your analysis are always anticipated and appreciated. πŸŒ„πŸ§ πŸŒΈπŸ™

                • Salvia.S

                  Your words convey a deep longing for self-awareness and confidence in one's unique value. It's a relatable and inspiring sentiment! Well done 🌹

                  • Tristan Robert Lange

                    Thank you so much, dear poet and friend! I am glad you found it inspirational and that the poem delivered. Hope you have a great day my friend! πŸŒ„πŸ§ πŸŒΈπŸ™

                      You're most welcome dear!!! Have a great day!!!

                    • orchidee

                      Fido always knows - well, 99% of all there is to know! LOL. πŸ™‚

                      nice one...
