 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

Mellow Is How I Am Feeling…


I am sitting here reflecting on life,
On how things have turned out for me,
From bad to worse, from worse to better,
My life's taken a turn for the good you see.

And I guess I just got to thinking a lot,
About my life and the bad health I bear,
And at this point in time, right now,
I think life just isn't damn well fair!

I went from a nightmare into a mare of a life,
Things just got worse as time past!
And now, I can honestly say at this point,
My life is fantastic, finally and at last!

Happiness in plenty is what I have,
And that's just how it should be!
For my quota of bad in life was a lot!
More than I think most people should see!

But I have got through it as only I can,
And I bear the worst in life as I should,
But happiness has been a long time coming,
But now my life isn't ‘just good!'

Because my life now is fantastic!
And I am happy for the first time ever!
This time is now mine to make as good as I can!
And make sure that this happiness lasts forever!

And of course it will, oh yes!
Because that's just how I want it to be!
And when I get to feeling a little sad,
I will remind myself that I am all I can be!

I do the best with what I have!
And make my life solid and true!
Face up to the harshness of life!
And so do what I have to do!

So I get up in the dark of night when in pain,
Well, at least when the pain's out of sight!
I sit at this machine and hit the keys,
And type out all of my pain!

I have the finest therapy that I can have,
And I write about what's inside of me!
Eke it out, get it out, and get rid of it all!
To be the very best that I can be!

So I am sitting here typing away this night,
And mellow is how I am feeling!
My insides were churned up today…
And it sent my head and heart reeling!!

I was upset and all confused today,
And I didn't know what I was supposed to do!
For I had a pain in my heart so bad!
And that pain was violently omitting through!

But then I thought about things that happen,
And told myself that I can deal with this!
Because after all, when said and done!
Life's really all about hit and miss!

So I got to thinking, and I mean deep!
About what will happen now in my life!
And wondered if this would affect my plans,
To become my wonderful Rich's wife!

Then we chatted as we do you see,
And he once again allayed my fears,
Hushed me better, gave me kisses,
And brushed away all of my tears!

And promised me that all would be well,
And that what happens now is not for long,
We do what we have to do to get through,
And we will, because our love is so strong!

And if something worth having is hard to get,
Then we never take it for granted at all!
More, we strive to make it as good as we can,
Stay focused, strong and stand tall!

So we are focused, we are strong and true!
And stand taller than the tallness of the sky!
Stay firm and hold fast the love we have!
And accept it, never question why!

For the whys are never always good!
But more, they are harsh and tough!
But we can do it, we will survive!
Because we can get through any rough!!

So we stand taller, strong and true!
And will never fail in our quest,
To be forever as we should be;
And live our life to the very best!

As only we can do!!
