my comfort zone 3 months ago

I used to have a comfort zone where I knew I wouldn’t fail.
The same four walls and busy work were really more like jail.
I longed so much to do the things I’d never done before, But
Stayed inside my comfort zone and paced the same old floor.

I said it didn’t matter that I wasn’t doing much.
I said I didn’t care for things like commission checks and such.
I claimed to be so busy with the things inside the zone, But
deep inside I longed for something special of my own.

I couldn’t let my life go by just watching others win.
I held my breath; I stepped outside and let the change begin.
I took a step and with new strength I’d never felt before,
I kissed my comfort zone goodbye and closed and locked the door.

If your in a comfort zone, afraid to venture out,
Remember that all winners were at one time filled with doubt.
A step or two and words of praise can make your dreams come true.
Reach for your future with a smile, success is there for you!



Take A Walk In My Shoes 3 months ago

When people take a look at me
It is the inside of me that they don’t see.
I put on a smile but they just grin
I put down my head
They lift up their chin.
The things I hear don’t hurt my ears
The things you say don’t ruin my day.
Because rumors are rumors no matter which way.
Yes I am black and my heart is bigger
But please don’t judge me because I’m a nigger.

You just cant stop
You just cant quit
You’re like a stabbing knife and you’re good at it.

Jumping to conclusions because I am black,
Your catch phrase ‘Blacks are whack’
You nag me but I say nothing back.
I cant go anywhere w/o people staring at me
They look intensely so I stare at my feet.
They told me they give me dirty looks.
Those dirty looks up and down
They really meant dirty ‘cause my skin is brown.

They just cant stop
They just cant quit
They’re trying to pull me down and they’re good at it.

They do not live a day in everyone’s shoes
The life we live we neither do choose.
What I cannot explain is the pain they bring me rushing through my veins.
They think they own us like dogs; were on chains.
Do you know what I feel
The pain I do is real.
Don’t judge a book by its cover; read the text
If you judge me your turn is next.



RUN TO MY LOVE... 4 months ago

run to me my love
run to me and dont leave
come to me i feel with fear
come to me and kill my tear
i cant still with u now
the journey can kill my heart glow
i surprise with ur loveliness
and expel my drowsiness
think of ur kindliness
but if u think my love is a cage
and u r the bird that feel with rage
i can complete alone my age
she sailed in eyes rain
keep the remembrance in the brain…..Kate bruce(kylieteen@ymail.com).

nomatter how much we fought

poeple say you arnt worth crying over,
i dont know what to say.
hopefully things will be back to
normal one day

until then,my broken heart belongs to you,
for those who care my love for you was true

i wrote your name in the sky
but the wend blew it away
i wrote your name in the sand
but the waves awshed it away
i wrote your name in my heart
and forever it will stay

love is a great emotion
that keeps me going strong
i love you with my heart
my body and my soul
i love the way i keep loveing like a love i cant control
its your love that keeps me going each and everyday

SimonWilliamOrme Is writing

Breathe to the beat of sirens* 8 months ago

The writings on the wall for you to see
Read these words now cos soon they’ll be gone
Watch as ink runs faster than you run from me
A thousand words run circles round you
How can this not move you?
My hands hold you tight as my lips say goodnight
Under this street light our bodies turn to silhouette
Even shadows become distant as we walk away
Footsteps become louder
My heart beats a little faster
You cross me out and leave another mark
In the spaces and places that you have made your own

What do we do when love is not enough?
Things that seem close were never close at all
The colours fade from your eyes faster than this final goodbye
Your words puncher my lungs as a gasp for air
Screaming from the fence line
You lode your gun one last time
Pulling the trigger as you open your mouth
Stand back and watch me bleed
Let this blood stained floor be a reminder
Of this: our magical little world

It’s almost over
As we to walk away
Hearts begin to beat louder
But only in the dark



This place I call home. 9 months ago

Looking back on my life
I see beautiful places
I see beautiful people
And beautiful memories

I see a place I’ve always known
With people I’ve always loved
And memories always shown to defeat the fate of time

A place of happiness
A place of joy
A place where I grew up.
A place of love
And a place of hope
This place that I call home.

Out to the left is the industrial estate
A place of unforgivable dirt
Behind me is the city itself
A place where the malls and suburbia mix.
Right of me is an ocean view
A sight of solid blue.
But right in front is the magic itself
A memory that will never end
The stunning site of the city harbour
Of a man-made beach and jetty’s of yachts
All of this on a bed of rocks.

I see a place I’ve always known
With people I’ve always loved
And memories always shown to defeat the fate of time

People full of happiness
People full of joy
People with whom I’ve grown up
People who I’ll always love
People full of hope
These people that live at home.

The people there are the ones you want to know
They are kind
They are generous
They are fun
They are smart
They are always there when you need a good heart-to-heart.

The thing about the people there is that they always want to help
Whether it’s for the community
Or the elderly
Or the students
Or the environment
No matter what they’re always there
And it’s everyone and everything for which they CARE!!

I see a place I’ve always known
With people I’ve always loved
And memories always showed to defeat the fate of time

Memories of happiness
Memories of joy
Memories of growing up
Memories of love
Memories of hope
All of these memories of home.

Memories are like a nurse
They make you feel better when you’re feeling under the weather
They’ll always be there forever and ever
Memories from when I was little
When I was growing up, being naughty and leaving home.
Memories of winning my first trophy
My first medal
And my first dance.
Memories of my first day of school,
My first swimming lesson and my first driving lesson.

All of these remain in me
This nurse called a memory
A memory is something you’ll never lose
And they’re the things that make you and build you as you are.

Looking back on my life
I see beautiful places
I see beautiful people
And beautiful memories.

I see memories always seen
With people I’ve always loved
And a place always known to defeat the fate of time.

This place where I come from
Is indeed the place I call home
And the town I’ve always lived in
Is of course…
GLADSTONE!
