What I Need

 Love is just a beating heart

rushing and gushing right from the start

blood rushes in, cheeks up in flames

I never thought I'd feel this again

all it took was a little pain, feeling of struggle, 

some feeling insane

feeling like this madness would never end, 

until I said I JUST CAN'T TAKE THIS over and over again

Finally one day, it finally clicked, it was finally done, I was over it, 

You know it cuz I exploded

every little aching pain I've collected over seemingly infinite years

feeling unheard, gaslit, called a NAG, a B****, Or Crazy

just cuz I wanted you to take CARE OF ME?

yeah this was it.

I never knew I could feel so alive

like a near death experience, nothing makes you want to live more

makes you gain a new initiative to thrive.

and silly, all it took was stepping out that door

I've finally fallen for ME

to give myself what I need, 

the freedom to live without worry, 

the space & room to BREATHE

cuz when you're with the wrong person

you know it

the actions they provide subliminally show it

 you spend all your time in the mode of give give give

and it feels like all they do is take take take

then you know they're just using you cuz they can, 

they're just being fake fake fake

Fake it til you Make it just won't work 

if you JUST CAN'T TAKE IT.

I need ME more than you do

 Lost, Broken, all Alone

Feeling Miserable, Like I've wasted all this time. 

All these years, waiting, hoping, wishing you would care enough

to take the bull by the fucking horns, Your life is in YOUR hands, 

but you Don't, You didn't, did you ever THINK I'd be OK with being BARELY OK?

I'M NOT FINE

I'm NOT FINE with a life filled of stress, worry, and feeling USED

Did you ever think that maybe I want to be GREAT?

AMAZING? I WANT TO FUCKING THRIVE

and here I left you and you won't even leave. Get Up, Get OUT, or get some FUCKING DRIVE?

I NEED life to make me FEEL ALIVE

Breaking up with toxic love is like 

Falling in love with yourself.

No one's going to MAKE you happy, MAKE you safe, 

MAKE you feel the respect you deserve til you STAND up Stand Tall Shout it OUT

 I NEED ME MORE THAN YOU DO

I NEED ME MORE THAN YOU DO

Better hope you learn to help yourself, 

Because I've waited and waited and I just can't be here for you

Anymore

And don't you Dare say it's cuz  I didn't believe in you 

I had faith, I invested, even when things were WORSE than tough

I love me more than you did, it's obvious, 

because I respect myself enough 

to not make these tired excuses, 

day after day, week after week, year after year

 like you've been doing the last SEVERAL years. (YEARS?!)

I gave you nearly a Decade, and all I got in return was greif, 

I was the problem, I was the nag, I was the one that was overreacting

cuz I just couldn't HANDLE the blatant avoidance 

always heard but never listened, now you want to turn it on me...

Never could you step up, never could you back up 

what you always promised me, 

to love me, protect me, AS WELL as make me feel secure,  NOT INSTEAD

you never did that... yea that's why i'm not so sure 

that I could ever disrespect myself like that again. 

I love myself more than that.

I guess I just needed ME more than you did

I just NEED ME more than YOU did.

When it all seems like too much, Meditate!

I saw a post on Facebook the a few months ago that really made me happy. It said that there is a school that changed Detention to Meditation Time.! That is Amazing! Meditation helps with a lot of aggression issues! As well as Anxiety, *with that, I know first hand! 

Then a few days ago I ran into these couple of websites. 

The Huffington Post: The Most Successful People Meditation, Here's How You Can Too

Collective Evolution: 5 Reasons Meditation May Decrease Your Risk of Cancer

 

I know Meditation is a very good thing, I was even in Meditation Groups in High School, MYS Meditation Yoga Service! I had a lot of fun, but I wasn't very good at meditating, I didn't feel I was doing it right. I had constant thoughts that I couldn't stop, every little sound would turn into a song in my head, There was no OFF switch!! 

 

Mindful Bubble Bath!

 Over the years I have learned to steady my thoughts, and though I don't meditate as often as I would like, I do take time to turn regular everyday tasks and crafts into meditating, Like Doing The Dishes, Taking a bath or having a facial (Pamper yourself Mindful with #PerfectlyPosh!!) Ironing, Knitting, DOODLING! Everything has it's way to achieve mindfulness.  






The mere fact that Meditation can reduce Cancer!! (And there has been cancer in my family :-( But, We have survivors!) I know if They can beat Cancer, They can keep from getting it again!! We just have to take care of Each Other & Ourselves, Make Each Other and Ourselves HAPPY & Calm!!!  Pamper Ourselves and Our Loved Ones!!!

The fact that Successful People Meditate doesn't surprise me one bit!! I think I will NOW MEDITATE MORE OFTEN!

When it all seems like too much, Meditate!!!
