Not so long ago, I gave these words to a woman who complained about her husband. He would not do this, he would not do that and all in all he was just self-absorbed, egotistical and unable to attend to her needs. The question I asked her to contemplate:
” Do you treat him the way you expect him to treat you ?”
She turned around….

COME TO ME
by justme
It is within this emptiness I live.
It is within these tears I thrive.
It is within this nothingness I sleep and it is within this sleep I die.
Come to me all ye who are of haste,
lay your head gently upon my breast….
For the darkness that overshadows you,
is but the stone upon your face.
Take the stone, oblige the weight,
one foot forward, await thy fate.
Silent is the moon, the stars shout not either.
Quiet is the rivers, the sea a constant giver.

Can’t you hear it? Can’t you see ?
It is the silent, the quiet in me.
This quote is based on the ” A little prayer” by justme
Like a memory being recalled, a memory of peaceful, fulfilled existence
SIMPLE REALLY
by justme
I hear your noise but I just can’t see
I sense your anger, but it wont stay with me
I see your pain, it’s written on your face
It’s all in vain, but not within this quiet place.
I understand you think it’s them, not you
I sense why, to you, that feels, oh so true.
I see the baggage, you never asked, to collect
I feel your sense of hurt, and one, of no respect
I know you think, if only this, or that, or if
I have seen you stand on the edge, of a deathly cliff
I see your tears, and hear your cries for help
I know you have read, the book of life and little self
I see, your growing very tired and weary son
I seen you try to add, to cover, to have some fun
I see you everyday,
I seen you every way.
I seen you in the street.
I see you, yet we never meet.
If all you wish is just to be alive and free.
Then look up, across, in front and you will see
An amazing thing that simple but it’s true
We are all here, and there’s no difference between me or you.
