In your power 2.0

 

When things are out of your control,
Control yourself.

Breadcrumbs

A placeholder ring

Temporary meaning

I vow in-between.

Hold my spot

Til better comes along

Who is going to tie the knot.

A lady in waiting,

Eternity does not come easily

Or swiftly.

One who seeks a definite answer

Needs patience indefinitely.

Does Mr. Right

Promise all the right things

Right now,

Enough to keep me hungry?

A short-term solution

When I dream of a 

Permanent situation

A preview of what is real

All I see

Is intention to commit,

When does forever start

If not today? 

I will

 

A dream come true is not necessarily a reality that lasts.

Wake up

 

Even my coffee needs a pep talk,

For I feel no relief when the 
caffeine kicks in.

I know the tools

Time heals;

Not all wounds

Are bad memories to kill.

Yet I go to war defeated

Escape in the world of dreams,

Only to wake up even more

drained.

Time heals, they say, but how

much time — when it seems 

infinite.

Switched off the router today,

Waited a few seconds

Maybe my energy will start

blinking 

again.

Not yet,

Dear friend.

Be patient,

The sun has not set.

My coffee just kicked in, and I can 

still write a poem.

Fill it up

 

It is not a life less lived if you do not achieve it all.

Hope

 

Where there is faith, there is growth.

Crucial

 

The most important thing about routine is getting back to it.

It does not fit

 

The flowers are never the problem. The vase, too small or too big, is.

In your power

 

When things are out of your control, 
Nail those you can.
