TEMPORARY HAPPINESS

By D U P R E E .

Never will I ever Fall in Love with the Art of Temporary Happiness

Those words indicate something

They all surface from my canvas the words that I verbalize

Or emerge from a drawing that releases everything that I keep bottled in

I use this poem to create my art to release my struggles

And I recite these words to create wings and set free my troubles

And I can’t release my struggles if I can’t find my freedom

My freedom is trapped in this image

And I can’t create this image

because you left to find your freedom

I’m tryna to make the perfect picture, freely

Creating art is easier than life is and there is still sketching to be done

No way will I let my pain make me give up and get rid

In no way am I complete. I still have a far way to go,

And life difficult like me blinking without my eyelids

As I create my piece, I refuse to feel this pain that I have for you,

It rest deep in my soul

But it keeps hoping to connect with you

So my eagerness advised to me to create the perfect picture and when I did reconnect it came up with a blank canvas

If I would have known that your existence would have been temporary

I would have made more time to make more meaningful memories

And I tried

I attempted to illustrate you then paint you but my mind came up with distant memories

That made it hard for me to visualize you

This pain of you being gone, stops my words from forming wings and get through to you
My words resist to paint you cuz now your gone and breathless
you were my air u left me feeling like im lifeless
you passed on ......and left me airless
and this deep hurt makes me my tears
to the point that i cry till im that im breathless
and i have to create this piece so i can accept that your gone and regain my concious

I And I hate this feeling because you’re only aloud to exist in my vague memories

If I reminisced it became heartrending,

My hands can paint new memories, cuz I can’t even illustrate without thinking of you being gone from me

And I hate these tears because I can’t illustrate you right next to me

I can’t dream of you because I’m dreaming of you un-silently

And I’m trying to reach out to you but you’re beyond capacity

I’m full of un-forgiviness

Cuz he took you so quickly away from me

So I create the art of Temporary Happiness because no more are you telling jokes right next to me

So I tried to make a great effort to move on, forgive, and finally create your masterpiece

Because no more can I stand that I’m hiding behind “I’m fine existing,

Without you.”

I’m happy when I’m around them for now, but later I will continue to be angry not being near your existence

So I will create the piece
“ Never will I ever fall in Love with the art of Temporary Happiness”.

Poem

So I heard a knock knocking at my door
And it was him standing in my existence meeting me at my front door
He said modify your life
Don’t delay the rest of your life for a reservation, Life is not reserved
You want to make it to the promise land
Listen to his declaration and you will be served
So at the end of his meal, bump being hungry He made me full
He brought to my attention that I’m dying inside and it’s painful
I have to nurture myself before I can nurture the world
He has a renovation for me already in store,
And I’m trying to be different then before
The introduction of my alteration, lead me to a book with wisdom in it
(The Bible)
Romans 12:8
Reads to direct my fate
“I beseech you therefore brethren by the mercies of God,
that you present your bodies a living sacrifice holy, acceptable to God
which is your reasonable services and don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing
of your mind that you may prove what’s good and acceptable to God?” ....
Yea that’s his word
And dang that felt good
It advised me I’m making a transformation through restoration
So I’m making over for goodI’m reinstating my life,
so if he ask me for desert
I’m taking it, he supplying
Cake so I’m putting the knife to it
So now that we're filled with the food of him
no itis…..the auditoriums silent ....
I can hear a pen drop in it ....
to present our Book of knowledge
With the inspiration of him in it

Chapter 1-5

I am hunted by my past A whole lot is hitting me all at once and I can’t dodge it
It coming at me to fast
No breaks on my past I’m tryna slow it down but I can’t pause it
I’m coming up with all these ridiculous reasons on why
I should just keep doing what I’m doing and ignore it
All my emotions are fighting inside of me
And there ain’t no refs calling calls to resolve it
Emotions all bottled up inside of me
I have to shatter it But have never been confident on how to battle them and trash them
My emotions and my character are avoiding each other like the wrong side of a magnet So they are all bottled up in me and I’m trying to renew myself and recycle it
I have to smash it
Tolerate whatever it is to cause brokenness and heal me and then regain my confidence
But I’m still sleeping on it, allowing my pride and my integrity to hide it
Eventually everything inside of me will come out of me and I won’t be able to control it
I’m allowing the world to change me and affect my behavior
My actions my manners then lead to a reaction
That could ultimately lead to a consequence
That I’m refusing to experience to it ....
.. ..
Chapter 6-10
.. ..
This enemy that is trying to corrupt me is an enemy that lives beneath me ....
That is trying to disable that final feeling of love… without it … makes my tears....
I struggle to see because there filled with worn out hopes that create my fears,....
Dry emotions, mistreated love, ....
And a un-determination for life that I’m going to damage now so it doesn’t continue on for years....
.. ..
..Chapter 11-12..
...
I’m retrieving a light on which way to go ....
And can’t wait to long ....
I’m using my bitter grief to complete my joy ....
Cuz it’s hard, I’m tryna make this change sooner than later ....
So I can give my enemy back his meal ....
I’m taking my dad’s meal cuz he serving it on a silver platter and its real ....
My enemy was trying to destroy my last couple feelings of love ....
I’m becoming free and deep hurt ....
Takes away from my-self worth ....
And I’m ready to determine my own success and rise above....
My obstacles will not determine achievements....
Achievements lead from me managing myself and not the environment....
I’m staying humble to everything around....
The world can distract ...my pride....
It’s not bad to have it but sometimes pride leads to a fall ....
And he told me I was dying inside ....
I made a new friend and I hope the other realizes he is not my ally....
I found purity, optimism, gladness, and life ....
No more accepting the low life ....
I’m done making that mistake I’m concentrating on my rise ....
I’m reaching for the high life ....

ESSENCE OF THE MIND

Post ~Monyee

Background: O tayy Happy Easter to everyone! l0l I just got my poem I wrote for English class back. Yes that is the one thing I can do. I can write a poem. It took me about 2 hours, not too much time right? I have no clue what this piece is originally about so its kinda random. This piece was written just to complete the guidelines of using imagery and personification. Yea its kinda short too. Like to hear it here it go!

Essence of the mind
My thoughts grab me and remind me all tribulations can be overcome
Maybe time itself allows me to continue forward
Notifications of time reprise past emotions and regenerate lost hope
The air whistles soft remembrances of joyous times
Just for once allow time to rewind itself
Allow my thoughts to firmly grip my self conscious mind
and slowly create bravery and confidence
Yet let my eyes grab the blank lines covered with eraser marks
Provide my monstrous hunger for blank verses with enough energy
to devour these empty spaces left uneaten on my canvas
Make time my best friend with never ending anecdotes
BODY OF THE ESSENCE
Wherever you go your mind graciously follows in your footsteps
Eventually your adolescent mind will mature and stride long enough
to step out from your unforeseen shadow
Let my words hold your hands and initiate peace between body and mind
Just know that all of this is of the essence of the mind.

THOUGHTS OF AN ENDLESS THOUGHT PROCESS

Post Monyee

Some how I find myself here
Battling with curiosity on how things tremendously took a turn
For the opposite cause
Because with all honesty I don't want to be anything
except exceptional
Consequential thoughts and actions make
All curiosity my enemy
And taking chances my sole confidant
Which way of this phase of this stage shall
I allow my own personal problems to make my day...worse
I have to catch myself before I hit that large epiphany
That I have to trust somebody
Because trusting yourself leads to loneliness and empty conversations
Shredding through my mounds of possibility of why everything I try to prevent
Gradually ties my shoe laces around my ankles and trips me up
Maybe its not enough that I keep burning myself
And its leads to unhealed wounds and yet again another fire that distracts me
Still trying to find my purpose here
And still nothing seems to cross my mind well...this does.

1. I'm an okay friend most days when you catch me
2. Downside I don't think I'll grow up and even remember
1/2 the people who meant the world to me

I seem to have my way of hoping for things that should happen
Certain circumstances take their chances
Which I am reluctant to do
Its evidently true that very few
Make matters worse and I lose my cool.
Grudges I hold
Take hold of me
And at the same time my consequential mind separates itself
From my later lively & emotional mind
Maybe that is what every one's life is like
and I just feel brand new to it
Sometimes I just hope I'm not crazy
And someone else realizes this seemly unnatural pain.
Escaping seems like an option but you can't run from yourself forever
Maybe I can call this insight "Distinctively Monyee",
Is not crazy but clever
Clever never really got me anywhere else but here
An inspiring journalist with not that much to share
No real heciticity in her life
That is if heciticity is a word...which I doubt it is
Certain situations, orientations, and conversations
Leave her mind and almanac of prolifically askew words to be disturbed
In all honesty I try to create a reality of paradise with new words
Then it crosses my mind that paradise is within your box of thoughts
And here is where I begin to digress...
This is just the ingenuity of a endless thought process

Walk in His confidence ( Post By Unbroken )

I stole this from a book...its like little messages from God to his princesses...I thought I would share my favorite one. I guess its because its what I'm going through. Sometimes God has a way of speaking to people when you least expect it.



To my princess,

I know the world whispers in your ear that what you possess defines who you are,and what you look like determines your worth. This is a lie. Generations to come will never remember you for the things you accumulate or the efforts you placed in your appearence. In fact, the harder you strive to collect more things and to perfect your image, the more insecure you will be about who you are and why you are here. I am in you and you are in me. I will give you all that you need. Now go and walk in confidence.

Love, God
