Two Hearts, Poem By SSavage

Suppose to happen

Like the blossoming of a flower

Looked out

And saw

The beauty inside and

Out all about

Through the drizzle of the rain

Saw the pain

Two hearts

Captured the light

Turned darkness

 Sunshine bright

Sun

Glisten

A smile

Made a heart beat

Take a seat

There they are

Two hearts as one

Intertwined

Immensity, Infinitude

But proximity afar 😦

Battered Heart, Poem by SSavage

Thoughts shattered

Heart Battered

Past Pain

Disdain

That wall

Keeps you there

In a stare

Releasing all

That’s rare

Still places

The heart races

What do you choose

To win or

Lose

Choose to win

Don’t be coy

Dance with joy

Pain, Poem by SSavage

If all were to begin

To understand and relate

To other’s pain

We got nothing

To gain

But to listen and

Shelter them in the

Rain

Real Talk: The TRUTH

The TRUTH: It may not lead you to where you thought you were going, but it will always lead you somewhere better. When ignored, it will eventually show itself. The closeness of your relationships is directly proportional to the degree to which you have revealed the truth about yourself. It can be painful. -unknown

Real Talk Song comprised of my Poems

Here’s a first draft of the song that’s a collection of your poems, drafted by Karen Ervin

Title: Ache with Pain

You tore my heart out

I ache with pain

What did you gain?

 

Your apology I do not accept

I accept the change

I no longer weep

What you did was deep

 

I was hurt Not due to the break up or your dirt

But because I didn’t leave sooner

You were a waste of time

Where you worth a dime?

 

You tore my heart out

I ache with pain

What did you gain?

 

First my heart was in it

Now it’s my head

I know we won’t wed

It’s confidence and independence I seek

I stand no longer weak

I reconcile this in my mind

I can see; I am no longer blind

 

You tore my heart out

I ache with pain

What did you gain?

 

You will regret that I have moved along

Your inconsistency drives me crazy

My vision of you is no longer hazy

I gave you my all

You backed me against the wall

I had no choice but to leave

You stole my dream

And I thought we were a team

 

You tore my heart out

I ache with pain

What did you gain?

OVERCOMING INSECURITIES

Overcoming insecurities after ending a relationship and moving forward

After ending a relationship, you may ask yourself is it normal to experience feelings of insecurity; some may agree this is normal. The relationship may have left you feeling insecure for 3 reasons. 1) You feel insecure because the relationship failed and you feel it was your fault; 2) Your partner made you feel insecure in the relationship; making you feel you were non worthy of their love, affection and attention. 3) You feel insecure because you allowed yourself to become lost in your partner’s world and you lost a sense of self. According to the Helpguide.org, whatever the reason for the split, whether you wanted the relationship to end or not, the breakup of a relationship can trigger unsettling feelings.

According to Helpguide.org, romantic relationships begin with excitement and high hope for the future and when the relationship fails, there is a feeling of profound disappointment, stress, and grief. How do you begin to regain those feelings of security and feeling confident again? Building self-esteem will lead to building confidence, and once you increase your confidence, this leads to feeling more secure, more secure about life and who you are.

Listed are 8 ways to increase or improve self-esteem.

1. Believe in yourself and believe you are worthy.
2. Take time for yourself to know you and understand you better; the more you understand you, the more you are comfortable with you just being you.
3. Exercise. Relax and enjoy you and who you are.
4. Be confident in who you are, accept you. Understand how you view yourself becomes priority over how others may view you.
5. Focus on what you have accomplished.
6. Create positive affirmations, create positive self talk and eliminate negative self talk, instead of saying I can’t, say I can.
7. Surround yourself with a positive environment, with positive people and a positive support group.
8. Don’t set unrealistic expectations for yourself.
