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

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.
