Addictions… one for the road.

​One for the road. 
That was the way it use to be, 
People meeting up through addictions, where they saw a crossroad they weren’t able to see. 

You see addictions is blind!
Some people can be in total control, 
We are blinded by the madness and didn’t want to take it slow.

I thought I was in control
And to be honest, my controlling ways was demonstrated time and time again
Today, I simply need to answer to God, and the  ‘12 step’ Big Blue book and my spiritual friend. 

I wanted chaos
I wanted the madness to match my mind,
it’s a bit like my weight lifting session, 
I would go for the heaviest and dangerous weight
as eventually there came a stand still.. where I was able to see.. and no longer debate.

My Yiayia, Florenza

​My Yiayia (Nan in English) Florenza Nikiforou, 
The Nan and friend that I miss every day
The one who kept me calm when doubts entered my mind, 
She couldn’t read or write, but I wouldn’t change her for the world as her language was love and learn to be kind.

She was my champion
She was my friend, 
She was my zeal when I faced traumas that I couldn’t manage,
I was blessed to have her for the time she stayed on this earth, 
She was my ball of love where hope brought its worth. 

Yiayia Florenza, it’s been over 30 years and still remember your beautiful face, 
She was my hope, my light and my warm embrace. 

She made you a cup of tea without asking, 
Because she knew you were in need to replenish,
Her type no longer exist as today we live with impatience which is rather hellish. 

It’s like that old saying: “ They don’t make them like they us to”
And in her instance that was so true, thanks the heaves she was born, lived and travelled to the heavens ensue.

Everything in God’s timing

​You ponder what’s going on
Yo carry out a leap of faith, 
I want to work this desire and make sure I won’t use any haste. 

I am writing these words and wonder where they shall end,
This is love of a higher power, the translucent hero and the one to defend. 

Be kind to yourself
Be kind to your needs, 
Be kind to your hopes and the spiritual nourishment which you shall feed. 

Be loving and learn that God wants nothing but the best 
You will find a way through this, and that comes from a deluge of zeal and zest. 

Be hopeful and be with the sun
And even when it isn’t shining, the rain can always be humble and fun. 

I need peace 
And I will receive it one day,
The loud chaos one entertains, I rather stay away.

Every thing Temporary

​All things are temporary
Youth…
Adulthood…
Relationships and life,
We look towards a good beginning and refuse the negative of others strife. 

All things are temporary 
As all things can’t stay forever, 
Life is gifted by mercy and grace
And how many times we have fallen into an unknowing place.

You may have been a controlling person, 
Teaching your children the best way forth, 
I am not regretting life anymore, a good life is what I crave more.   

Temporary moments 
Lingering thoughts of day to day life, 
We all want to be comfortable in our day to day living
It’s only through our higher power we are able to be giving. 

Thank you for life
Thank you for being you,
We may not always agree, but life has a spirit which guides 
This temporary walk is merely a moment we confide.

A message

​someone one day says A.I. can write a poem
So does a computer have the capacity to see the heart and show them?

The message is simple
‘Love’, the winning formula, all that we need,
I am only human, capable of failures and victory, especially when I bleed. 

But the light is there 
No matter how much the sun or rain arrives, 
It’s about your heart that matters , which is the pattern to stay alive. 

I am here today 
Running this race called ‘life’, 
When all you need is to glide, 
For those who get exhausted, work on your patience ‘you always be facing an opposing tide’.

Somethings in life.. you can’t

​You see, some things in life you can’t let go
It’s not about stubbornness or forcing anyone to understand, 
This is your walk, and the one you hold God’s protecting hand. 

You see, I see God as my everything, 
Something I can’t see but I can openly feel inside, 
I may go to a church on Sunday, but I have faced more than a tide.

What works for one person may not for next, 
I am there to hear the word of God and sing the highest note that I can, 
I can’t be anyone else in this life, sorry to those who can’t be on their own.. that walk I am unable to ever understand.

I want to be left alone, sometimes as arguments have fraught this mind so much,
I don’t want this anger to rip through my heart, as I promise there shall be a punch inflicted and not a mere touch.

If you read these words, don’t think I have been hurt? or anyone has said anything to me?
I just to be uncomfortable in God’s presence, because he protects my soul, the one when one day I shall be finally free.

Prayers for Uncle

​Thank you for his life, as Uncle hasn’t left as he is still around, 
And thank you for his fight, 
As no one wants to ever go
Yet heaven never stays still, nor shall it ever so slow. 

Praying for his children and family 
May the positive prayers arrive uncle George’s way, 
We all want an eternal life, but that is in heaven where he shall stay. 

We are born, we live and then spiritually leave 
God is protecting and holds our hearts which won’t ever be deceived. 

There are prayers coming your way
‘From this moment in time, and shall continue to stay. 

We want nothing be comfort, peace and light
Not counting Uncle George out.. just yet,
May people feel a blessing and learn to reset. 

Be at peace
Be with hope,
Tomorrow is never guaranteed, as we have all held onto life’s rope.

“For Uncle George”
