  • ok, she came home for a "visit", but does that mean she is staying? Not likely....

Lessons learned

Stepping through lifes countless doors,
means to accept either succes or failure.
The difference seperating the two is simple,
success brings a smile and self worth, yes sir.

Failure means you have yet to find your niche,
do not fret, for many times have I failed.
Should you have the fortitude and strength, get up,
life is not over, the ship has not yet sailed.

Instead, think in terms of goals you want,
like myself for instance, mine transformed daily.
That is until quite recently, I found my calling,
my writing and the green eyes that will save me.

Texas is coming home to me after 14 long years,
we never knew each other more than schoolmates.
Once time progressed and life changed us,
her return, I can't wait, already planned is the 1st date.

Words are how I will make my mark in this world,
gifted as I, with  such an extensive vocabulary,
over active imagination and a nose for detail,
I will write my series, I will, I have the ability.

Lessons learned are what get us through,
lessons not learned are the ones to overcome.
once you master your fears, wheter they be
acceptance or rejection, anything can be done.
