Gum drops and candy (Old Poem)

Happiness
I may not always feel it
I may not always look it
Sometimes, I don't know what it even is.

I look at the hurt
The pain
The heartache
The tears
And fears

It just make me sad
I wonder if anyone even hears

I care too much.
I identify with people
I hurt when they hurt
I let them know I'm there

For me to write a poem
For me to write about how happy I am
To say how everything is fine
How everything is dandy
How life is fill with gum drops and candy

It wouldnt be true
Id be lying through my teeth.
Because I see everything people go through

People go through hurt
People go through pain

But I hope for happiness for all
I hope for miracles
I hope for faith
I hope for love

100 Theme Writing/Art Challenge- Day 1-Introduction

Hey everyone, 

my name is Lindsay and this is the introduction to me and my blog. I really don't care if you like what I write or if you appreciate my writings. Feel free to comment and say what you think. Yes, some of the stuff I post is depressing but this does not mean I am depressed. I write what I think should be said and what I feel should be heard. You may not feel comfortable reading my posts but I really don't care. I write for those who wont speak for themselves. If my writing is about abuse, that doesnt mean its what i'm going through. I have friends who were abused but refuse to say it. I write what I feel they would or should say if they would speak up. So yes, my writings are a bit depressing. 

I'm an ordinary person just going through life and facing its challenges. I love butterflies,I appreciate the beauty of art. I love Van gogh's art and story. I love to draw , listen to music and talk to friends. I love to help them through whatever they are going through. 

I like sad poems because they remind me that I could always be worse off. I could always have more problems, but I don't. Sad poems give me hope. So enjoy my poems and writings. comment and let me know what you think. Oh, and I am not the best writer. Grammar is not really my friend (as you will probably notice). Don't go looking for errors, but know they will be there. Enjoy and leave some love. 

I had a different blog but I made one on Blogspot because I liked the way things posted here, rather than the one I was using before. So there will be a bunch of poems and stories that look like they were written in one day but some of them are old. A lot of them are old. 

Blessings, 

Linds

Just Thoughts

When I was younger I used to read all the time.Mystery and romance novels were my favorite and fiction books fascinated me. Even though they were just fiction, I would always hope that maybe some of the fiction would be  reality.

I am rereading a series by Dee Henderson called "The O'Mally Series". Its about a  bunch of former orphans who decided they were going to be a family. The people are all grown up and each one has a story to tell. There are 7 children and  each one has a role. The oldest is called "The Guardian" because he is overly protective of his family. The other ones have different names like "The Protector", "The negotiator", "The Rescuer", etc. The point of the books aren't the names, but how they represent each character's personality. Yes, it is just fiction, but I wonder if there is any reality to it.

I've always wished I had  an older brother/brothers. Reading the "O'Mally" series made me think about it again. How cool would it be to have older brothers who were all those things? One who acts as the Guardian so you never get her. One who protects you, rescues you.

I  decided when I get married and have kids, I want at least 2 boys to be the first kids. And then a girl. So that way they can always protect their little sister from harm. Be someone that she can always lean on and trust. Someone who will scare away the boys, hurt the ones who hurt her, and defend her when she needs it.  Sometimes I envy those who have older brothers, but sometimes I don't. I love my little brothers and sisters,and I like looking our for them and protecting them. Sometimes I just wonder what it would be like to have an older brother.
