Happily Ever Woman

Happily Ever Woman

Sipping tea

Writing words

Sitting in silence

Jotting down thoughts

Living in memories

Silently staying strong

Walking down the street

Singing my favourite song

The world sleeps

I type away

And I celebrate

The start of a new day

The rest of my life

Happily Ever Woman

Happily Ever Woman

I think of fixtures

Gold

Brass

Silver

The different fixtures in my life

The habits I have

The people I see

The places I go

And my goal is to make these fixtures

My favourite

Trending right now is gold

But I want silver

Silver is me

Silver is passion

Silver is stability

Silver is greatness

And this are the things

That describes the fixtures in my life

Happily Ever Woman

Happily Ever Woman

In the quiet moments

I sit a ponder

The events that just passed

The hardship

The tears

The love

And I made it through

Through another storm

Life ebbs and flows

And sometimes I crave

The silent moments

Between the chaos

Where I can be me

No apology

And forget about

Everything else

Happily Ever Woman

Happily Ever Woman

The world moves past my window 

A park filled with green

People walking down the street 

A sight so serene 

My gaze lingers 

At the blue sky 

I feel at peace 

Ready for the day 

Each morning I sit 

And gaze out the window 

Watch the world pass me by 

All the life around me 

Like the world is saying hi 

I wave at my neighbour 

Watch a stray cat strut by 

Clouds move in 

On my perfect blue sky 

A storm is coming 

I long for the rain 

Cold, hard 

Washing me

I see the first drop 

And through my little window

I see the world stop 

Happily Ever Woman

Happily Ever Woman

Nights

Looking for you

On the street

Hiding from the world

Sitting in a dark room

Lyrics that speak to me

I’m the wrong girl

I’m the light fading away

I’m the one that got away

Away from the devil

Away from the dark

Away from a black heart

Black black black nights

A love affair or two

Finding something

While I was waiting for you

Finding darkness

Pleasure and pain

Finding myself

Writing in vain

Broken to pieces

Shattered on the floor

Picked up one at a time

Creating a door

A door you came to

And opened wide

A door you took

With every stride

You strode into my heart

Even though we spent years apart

I have years now with you

I write about us two

How you take my breath away

How I see you everyday

First thing in the morning

Last thing at night

My heart flutters

I know this is right

And in the darkness

I come through

A new version

And now

I’m with you

Happily Ever Woman

Happily Ever Woman

Affirmations

Night and day

Living a life

That once seemed a world away

Hot coffee in the morning

Writing in a journal or two

Focusing on my breath

Every morning with you

As I sit and ponder

My life’s purpose

I see many paths I can take

Many paths that have been lay before me

Some taken, some left behind

Some waiting for the passage of time

I went on a journey to change myself

Find my center

Cast my demons out

But here I stand

Stronger than ever before

Living a life

Of peace and more

I work on my body

Work on my mind

Save my money

And am mindful of my time

Some will laugh

Some will ignore

Some will be inspired

And strive for more

Each day I map out

Where I want to go

The things that make me

Internally glow

Words of wisdom

Nights of calm

Time of reflection

I listen to a song

A song of power

A song of pride

A song of strength

Enjoying life’s ride

And each mountain I’ve climbed

Has made me strong

My mistakes

I’m every song

They made me into

The woman I am

Happily ever woman
