New Beginnings

You are unlike anything

I have ever seen

New things that bring

A future keen

New traits to bring

Patience, compassion, kind

Making my heart sing

Always on my mind

Here’s to the future

Goodbye to the past

Our paths suture

Things meant to last

-Matthew 8/6/23

See you later

Happy birthday there

Take each day in stride

But feeling you where?

Not here at my side

For you are not here

Not being around

You I cannot hear

Feeling run aground

Each day of greater

Feeling with thereby

It’s “see you later”

It’s never “goodbye”

[mattie-writes-here]

I’ve Fallen

There are some things I don’t need

That you say are essential

They aren’t required, I plead

But wait on the eventual

On days I don’t love myself

You always spoil me with yours

Loving with no thought for self

Because you are my cures

You always love selflessly

Even when things can feel tough

I’m here stuck senselessly

Feeling as though I’m enough

-Mattie 7/4/21

Thank You

When it all felt lost

I was gifted great

With no secret cost

He looks over fate

Clarity of mind

Stillness of the hand

With here this true bind

Not ever to strand

For He gifts me great

Never dishonor

Forever in slate

And I will honor

[mattie-writes-here]

Just leave

Not wanted nor needed

Just the same as I was

But even by treated

Wishing you well because

Right person with wrong time?

Or wrong person always?

To tire of the cold clime

Being the one who stays

Watch the door while leaving

While you play off the crime

Leave me to my grieving

But please stay out this time

[mattie-writes-here]

Unforgettable

Is it better to love than to live in fear?

How do I love when I know it’s not here?

Trying to fight what’s become quite clear.

I can’t love and I’ve become my own smear...

[mattie-writes-here]

Unforgivable

While on a crossroad at dusk

A stranger came strolling up

Said “You can have all the gold.

Have you your deepest desire”

Said “just sign right here for me.

Right on that dotted line there”

I said “stranger, you best leave.

Don’t waste your time on a husk”

“I don’t have a soul to sell.

Someone beat you to it, pal.

Held ransom by love gone cold.

An ‘angel’ with deep brown eyes”

[mattie-writes-here]

Good luck

Class begins today

Dawn the scrubs of life for now

See where life takes you

[mattie-writes-here]

Believe in myself

A new year begin

Start of an era

No more asking “when”

Look at the terra

Ahead lies a goal

Incredible height

To come to my dole

With all of my might

Push like no before

Have faith to say “jump”

Move forth with vigor

See a simple bump

[mattie-writes-here]

I’ll carry you

As this year comes to close

Feeling of no one knows

How fresh wound never clears

Slowly turns into years

But fear not in these times

Your name always chimes

Will not be forgotten

My mind you are thought in

Twin you will always be

A mermaid to swim free

So may your rest be true

For I will carry you

[mattie-writes-here]

Below the surface

There lies an astounding place

Which calls me back home

[mattie-writes-here]

Christmas time

Is up to the beholder

Where sublime

Or be met with cold shoulder

Those around

Might not be of the same blood

But don’t frown

‘Fore they are more than a bud

Keep those near

Those that care for you today

Because here

You’re always welcome to stay ❤️

[mattie-writes-here]

How does one forget

What once shone bright above all

The love you gave us

[mattie-writes-here]

Farewell

Do I cross your mind

From time to time

How am I defined

Aloof or sublime

For when you cross mine

There’s a longing

But without a shrine

‘Fore a new day is dawning

Each day that passes remind

That not every first is good

The two are not aligned

And continue my life as I would

[mattie-writes-here]

Who am I?

When alone in a crowd

Zoned out at a social

Even with everything so loud

My minds silence is focal

Because I’m not who I am

Am who I have not been

Confused by all the cram

A doppelgänger in my own skin

Deciding who is “I”

Who I want to be

Is it something I can’t deny

Or am I myself to some degree?

[mattie-writes-here]

Stay

With all the faceless faces

A half made promise

To only fall from graces

To have no prominence

A promise to stay

To weather the storm

No matter what say

To be the new norm

Only to change tune

With half hearted excuses

Seem to exist only to be hewn

To only bear the scars and bruises

[mattie-writes-here]

In the face of a mirror

A body without form

Just another sinner

No right to be warm

To wake up a new day

Be given a gift not earned

Thoughts on the mind weigh

For a situation left to yearn

While that day will yet come

Today has already begun

So one must not succumb

The day can never be outrun
