Shandée - Deleting the Past

As I scroll through pictures of days gone by,
I see friends and family, some no longer nearby.
We once shared laughter and memories bright,
But now, we've each taken a different path in life.

Opening this Pandora’s box of the past,
A flood of memories hits me fast.
Deleting pictures, one by one,
Of people and moments that are now gone.

Videos of parties, where I tried to fit in,
Now I see they never truly let me in.
Deleting dreams I once held so high,
Realizing those fires no longer need to ignite.

Poems I wrote, so mature for my age,
Reflect a life that has turned the page.
Activating an account I thought was closed,
A reminder of how time flows and grows.

Some have left us, leaving tears behind,
Others drifted away, though we still try
To hold on to moments we once shared—
Yet, sometimes, it's best to clear the air.

Deleting the past may feel like a chore,
But it creates space for something more.
A new chapter begins, unwritten and true,
With lessons learned, both old and new.

So goodbye to the past, and hello to what's near,
An unwritten future, open and clear.
The irony of erasing what once brought joy—
A metaphor of becoming, like a butterfly's ploy.

 

Shandée - Finding Joy in Life's Little Things

Let's hop and play, and laugh and sing

And let our hearts take flight on joyful wings

For life is too short to be spent in sorrow

Let's cherish each moment, today and tomorrow

 

Let's find the beauty in each little thing

A butterfly's wings, a bird on the wing

And when the tough times come our way

Let's keep our hope, and not let it stray

 

For like the bunny, we can stay strong

And sing our own hopeful song

And though the clouds may roll and thunder

We can stand tall, and not go under

 

So let us follow the bunny's lead

And live our lives with love and heed

For in the end, it's not the things we've done

But the joy we've found, and the love we've won.

Shandée - The Power Within

 

When life gets tough and dreams seem far away

We question if we should continue to pray

For success and happiness to come our way

Or just settle for what's here, day by day

 

But don't give up on those dreams you hold dear

For the road ahead may not always be clear

It may be rough, with obstacles and fear

But your inner strength will help you persevere

 

The path to success may not be paved in gold

But with hard work and patience, it can unfold

Believe in yourself and be brave and bold

For your dreams are worth more than silver and gold

 

So keep moving forward, step by step

With determination and a heart that's kept

In the right place, never losing sight

Of the dream you hold dear, shining bright

 

And remember, when the road gets rough

And the going gets tough, it's not enough

To give up and say it's all too tough

For you have the power, and that's enough.

Shandée - Pray with an Open Heart

 

Prayer is not just for the sick

Or for those in need of a quick fix

It's not just a plea for a helping hand

Or a way to shift blame and take a stand

 

Prayer is a conversation with the divine

A way to connect with a force that's sublime

It's a way to express gratitude and love

And to seek guidance from the heavens above

 

Prayer is not about the church or the creed

It's about the intentions that we hold and the seeds

That we sow with our thoughts and our words

And the actions that follow, like hummingbirds

 

Prayer is a tool for our inner growth

A way to tap into our highest troth

It's a way to see the world with fresh eyes

And to transcend our ego and its lies

 

So pray with an open heart and a pure intent

And let the divine energy be your vent

For love and compassion, for peace and light

And for the courage to do what's right.

Shandée - Virtual Love: Finding True Connection Online

 

We met in a place beyond the screen,

A world of pixels, where love is unseen.

Skeptical at first, we approached with care,

Knowing the risks, the heartache we could bear.

 

But as we talked and shared our hearts,

We found a love that surpassed all parts.

We laughed, we cried, we felt so alive,

Discovering in each other a reason to thrive.

 

Our conversations flowed like a river,

With every word, our hearts began to quiver.

We told each other things we'd never shared,

And found in each other, someone who cared.

 

Our love may have started online,

But it's real and true, no longer a line.

We found our soulmate in this digital place,

And it's a love we'll cherish, forever and always.

 

We know the risks, the dangers of the screen,

But our love is strong, it cannot be seen.

We found each other, against all odds,

And now we walk together, hand in hand, with love as our guide.

Shandée - Euphonious Addiction



Moody notes, a symphony of sound,

Music's tempo, keeps my feet on the ground,

A sweet tune that captures my heart,

A love for music, I can't depart.

 

Your voice, a whisper, like an affectionate kiss,

A passion that I cannot dismiss,

My unwavering devotion, to the melody of love,

A Euphonious addiction, that soars above.

 

In dreams, I see you play your tune,

The sound of your guitar, like a full moon,

A magical moment, we share our art,

Two hearts entwined, never to be apart.

 

The rhythm of love, a dance in the night,

The tempo of our hearts, pure delight,

Our Euphonious Addiction, a symphony of bliss,

Our love for music, an eternal promise. 

Shandée - Love Can Heal Your Heart

Love can heal your heart and make you feel alive it can give you hope and help you to survive

Let go of the pain and the hurt you feel inside open up your heart and let love be your guide

I will be here for you through the ups and downs and together we will build a love that knows no bounds

Hold on to my hand and never let it go let us face the world and let our love glow

All you need is love and I will give it to you no more tears, no more pain our love will see us through.

Shandée - Confusing Love

This love confuses me,

One minute I’m flying high,

Then you bring me down to my knees.

Why does our love have to be full of lies?

 

What kind of love is this?

You act like you own me,

Your jealousy is too much to handle,

I don’t need this pain, can’t you see?

 

I do love you, that’s true,

But I won’t be your property.

I belong to myself, not to you.

Love should be shared, not filled with misery.

 

I’m tired, it’s time for a change.

I can’t keep living like this.

My heart can’t take this anymore,

It’s time to walk away from all this pain.

 

Every night I cry,

Because of you, my heart breaks.

I can’t live with these lies,

I can’t keep playing this losing game.

 

I’ll leave if you don’t change,

It’s time to stop this fight.

It’s not worth the tears or pain,

I’m ready to end this love tonight.

Shandée - Poisoned Love

You say you're leaving,

and there's no turning back this time.

This story is over,

it's reached its end.

 

I've heard this before,

I've lived it,

I've seen it so much

that I'm bored of it.

 

Go find someone else,

this one's already gone,

he's no longer here,

he's dead.

 

Say what you want,

repeat it until you're tired,

and if you wish,

you can forget me in a year.

 

You can do it,

I don't care, I'm not interested.

I saw myself in a mirror,

and I didn't like the reflection.

 

What I saw wasn't me,

because you poison me,

you suffocate me, you drown me,

this is a sentence.

 

I don't want this story

in this book,

and I'll write something new

where you don't exist.

 

I don't need anyone

to live,

I'll still be me until the end,

and that's how I'll continue.

 

They tell me I'm not happy,

what do they know about me?

They know my name,

but not who I am.

 

I'll fight,

I'll win,

and I'll prove

that I'll make it.

 

I'm the one who decides,

and I want to dance,

and not stop,

and enjoy tonight.

 

I've created my world,

where love

is not allowed,

so Cupid, don't even think about coming.

Shandée - Dreaming of You Tonight

I don't want to fall asleep, For I know you'll be there, In my dreams so vividly, But I can't hold you near.

It's something that I avoid, Not easy for me to face, I see you there in my mind, But must move on from this place.

Don't get me wrong, my dear, I don't want to fall in love, I have to find my own way, To push forward and move on.

I know this isn't normal, You're always in my head, I see you in every reflection, And on every glass window.

Boom Boom goes my heart, Mami Mami my voice cries, I want to make you mine, But fear to fall and never rise.

Can you feel the passion, The fire that's burning me? I want to be with you so bad, But I can't risk being hurt, you see.

This is driving me crazy, I need to feel you near, I'd rather have you in my arms, Than dreaming of you my whole life, my dear.

Can you sense my yearning, The desire deep within? I'll stay awake a little longer, Dreaming of you until the morning begins.

Shandée - What You Need


Show me what you need,
Not the glitter, not the greed.
What you want might not be enough,
To fill the empty or soften the rough.

Your heart burns with so much fire,
I can feel your strong desire.
But there's a road you still must take,
To find the peace you hope to make.

What you want might cloud your mind,
And what you seek might not be kind.
But step by step, breath by breath,
You’ll find your way, and feel less stressed.

So take my hand and trust my voice,
Let go of fear and make your choice.
Walk the path that’s right for you,
And find the peace that waits for you.

Shandée - Trapped in Love's Cage

Every time you walk away I'm left drowning in a sea of sorrow But you always return, like a boomerang Dragging me back into your twisted world

You're like a poison I can't resist Your toxic words infecting my mind My heart aches, but I can't let you go Bound to you, like a bird with clipped wings

I try to forget you, to break free But my love for you holds me in chains I'm like a prisoner in my own heart Trapped in this endless cycle of pain

The voices in my head tell me to leave But my feet are rooted to the ground I'm like a tree that can't uproot itself Stuck in a barren wasteland, waiting to be found

I know deep down you don't love me My tears are testament to your indifference But still, I cling to the hope that someday You'll see me as more than just a convenience

I've built my own cage, a gilded prison And though the door is always open I cannot leave, for fear of the unknown Trapped in a place I cannot call my own.



Shandée - Lost in Passion's Embrace

In the dark, I feel your heat, A passion that's impossible to beat. I'll show you things you've never known, A wildness that we can call our own.

My love for you, it knows no end, And tonight, we'll let our bodies blend. Time stands still when we're together, Lost in the moment, free from all pressure.

My lips crave the taste of yours, Unlocking desires, opening doors. I know the path to make you mine, A place where love and lust entwine.

Every inch of your body is mine to explore, A map to guide me to your core. Our love is a world we've created, Where our souls unite, passions sated.

So turn off the light, let's make it real, A moment we'll remember, a love we'll feel. With you, my heart knows where it belongs, In your arms, where our love sings its songs.

Shandée - Melodies of Love

Who needs their love or sympathy? When I have you, my sweet melody. Approval from them is just a game, With you, I'm free from their cruel shame.

Their memories haunt me no more, Your love is all I need to adore. I've learned to love myself, it's true, And that's when I fell in love with you.

You're the light that guides me through the night, With you, everything feels just right. But even if you leave someday, I'll be okay, my heart will stay.

For I've found the love I need, With you, my soul is freed. So let them judge and let them stare, With you, my love, I have no fear.

Shandée - Jealous Heart



Did anyone ever tell you that you're a queen?
That you can do whatever you please?
Well, let me be honest with you,
Your actions have consequences, too.

You speak with sharp words,
Hurting others with your insults,
You think you're above everyone else,
But that arrogance will bring you down.

Your jealousy eats away at peace,
It poisons everything around you,
You can't stand to see others happy,
Their joy seems to bother you.

But here’s the truth:
Happiness isn’t found in spreading fear,
Your bitter heart won't heal,
Until you learn to love and care.

So listen closely,
Don’t let your pride lead you astray,
Treat others with kindness,
And you'll find love that’s true and pure.
