Weights

Mangosandpeaches

1 min read

Just because someone carries it well,

Doesn’t mean it isn’t heavy


The burden is heavy, the struggle unseen,

Behind every smile, there is more in between.


Dusty corners, fake displays,

Hiding the truth in subtle ways.

I look to the distance, lost in the night,

Hoping the dawn will bring me light.


The angel comes to take my hand,

Lifting me high to a softer land.

Up we go, the weight subsides,

Birthday

Mangosandpeaches

1 min read

Another year around the sun,

for me, a journey’s far from fun.

The candles flicker, the faces cheer,

Yet inside, drowning in fear.


Three hundred sixty-five days, a feat,

A race I ran with weary feet.

They call it triumph, a battle won,

I wonder softly, a look of stun


An angel descended, soft and bright,

Her presence casting a gentle light.

**I whispered lo...

The revelation

Mangosandpeaches

1 min read

Eyes wide open, a world unfolds,

A fleeting glance, a tale untold.

Whispers linger, shadows play,

The price of dreams begins to weigh.


A voice cried out, sharp as a blade,

The girl stood still, her heart afraid.

She looked around — no soul, no sound,

But felt her stomach twisting down.


The voice returned, a haunting call,

**She swayed, then stumbled, began to ...

friends

Laughter and tears,

You tell them your fears.

They see you grow,

They watch you fall—

But stand by your side

Through it all.


It’s not always easy—

The tantrums, the glares—

But friends never flinch

At truths or dares.


They hold all your secrets,

They laugh at your flaws,

They cheer when you win,

And fight for your cause.

A Shadow One Cannot Outrun

Mangosandpeaches

1 min read

I just want this storm to cease,

To find a fleeting breath of peace.

Bad luck clings tight, it won’t let go,

A heavy weight that pulls me low.


What crime, what curse, what ancient sin

Brings endless trouble crashing in?

Each day a trial I can’t escape,

A nightmare wrapped in waking shape.


All I ask is one still day,

A quiet path, a smoother way.

**One mome...

twenty4

1 min read

Another year has been and gone,

Resolutions come, then move on.

Reflecting slowly, simply, clear—

A complicated, fleeting year.

2025 now drawing near.


The fire’s warmth, the dog’s soft snores,

Counting down the last days of ’24.

Deep sighs of relief, the weight set down,

The clock ticks toward another round.


Another chance, another year,

**To rise again, t...

morning has broken

But not a word spoken

Eye to eye

Intensity prevails

Yet still a mask and vail


A night of hope

And endless desire

Yet such blank stares

Despite all that transpired


A moment of lust

A glimpse of love

Was that brief moment

A weakness or something from above


So complicated

Yet plain

No one could explain

But us...

Confusion

Mangosandpeaches

1 min read

Lying so still, caught in this trance,

Mixed signals flash, no steady stance.

A light on orange, can’t decide,

Do I keep close, or turn aside?



Green

To be loved, to feel whole,

To share secrets, heart and soul.



Red

A heart gone cold, walls built tall,

Am I wrong to fear the fall?



Green

If I’m myself, will he see?

**What if he doesn’t like the r...

finding A Way

I want to feel something—anything at all,

From endless words to tears that fall,

Once a river that carried my pain,

Now silent waters, dry and plain.



The hardest battles, I’ve fought to the end,

Overcame, though it took all I could spend.

Yet here I stand, no tears to cry,

Numb in a world that’s passing by.



Two stars above, watch over me still,

**Souls...
