Fill Yourself

 

 

When you cannot expel the bitterness

inside you

fill yourself with God's love

to dilute all that ugliness

that's deep within

and eating your happiness

Possibility

 

 

I will never again think of myself as a failed writer,

instead, I am a writer with possibility.

Brilliantly Made

 

 

your heart beats

your lungs breathe

your legs walk

your fingers touch

your soul feels

your mind thinks

your ears hear

while your eyes see the

magnificence of the universe

 

you were brilliantly made

and meant to be here

You In Photos

 

 

 

 

Sometimes you look great in photos

and sometimes you don't.

Choose to believe you look like

your better photos.

 

Why not live life a little happier?

Real Love

 

 

Real love never dies

if I told you long ago I loved you,

my word is still good

You Chose

 

 

You chose your demons over me,

I have to wonder

how is hell...

I Can See You

 

 

 

I can see your race, gender, clothes, and sexual orientation.

I can also see your job title or lack thereof,

the car you drive or don't drive.

I see your victories and your challenges,

but what I look for most is your heart.

 

Your heart is who you really are.

I Want Romance

I want passion.

I want romance.

I want adventure.

I want someone who would go 

to the end of the earth to find me

and slay a dragon if he had to.

I want love that is tested

and proves to be undying.

I want to write a novel that
 will have you weeping.

My Star

For My Niece and Nephew

My Star

One day I want a star named after me

so one day when I'm gone

you can look up at the sky

and whether you see my star or not

you'll know I'm out there somewhere looking

out for you.

God's Presence

 

I felt God's presence today

He kissed me through the breezes

as I walked through the woods

 

Olivia McGuire

 

It's not that I dislike intellectuals,

but I tend to prefer people

who are down here on earth with me.

My Darling

 

In the vast desert, the green forest,

and the wild sea

my darling, my darling

you are all of me

Life Is An Amazing Journey

 

Life is an amazing journey.

So even if you are at a place where things seem barren,

keep driving...

I'm neither weird nor crazy,

you're just boring.

 

Olivia McGuire

I'd Rather

 

I'd rather go to my grave

still believing in my dreams

to come true

than live a lifetime

without my hopes

 

 

Olivia McGuire

Sometimes I Feel

 

Sometimes I feel

beautiful

powerful

safe

whole

confident

smart

and kind

 

Sometimes I feel

ugly

weak

afraid

broken

insecure

stupid

and mean

 

Sometimes I am everything in between

Record Player and Vinyl Records

 

Happiness is your record player

and your old vinyl records.

I Win

You think I'm immature.

I think I'm fun.

I win.

A Lost Love

 

 

A lost love is like the full moon

bright, luminous, mysterious

Seems so near and so

far away at the same time

It hangs over you, right above your head

yet it is impossible to touch

Chasing Full Moon

 

 

I'm chasing a full moon.

Please God, help me catch it.

A Mother's Loss

 I remember once on a very cold and gloomy day I was craving cookies. So  I braved the cold just to get cookies from the store. I ran into this mother who lost her son in the Iraq war. I had met her at the local doughnut store the year before and she told me their tragic story. I recognized her immediately and asked her how she was and she told me she was good. Of course she wasn't. The pain in her face was deep and telling. I really wanted to reach out to her and hug her right there in the store. But because I hardly knew her, I didn't. Instead, I drove home in the rain and cried.

Robert Pattinson

 

 

Yes, I'm in a relationship with Robert Pattinson. He doesn't know who the hell I am but that's beside the point.
