The Dance of Self

M.A.D. Works

In shadows deep, I often tread,
With fear of judgment in my head.
But step by step, I faced the crowd,
Learning to speak, yet not too loud.

I asked my questions, listened close,
In quiet moments, I would boast.
Of strengths I have, of deeds I’ve done,
Building confidence, one by one.

With help I sought, I found my way,
Through social storms, I learned to sway.
Though sometimes still, I feel that ache,
I know it’s fine; it’s mine to take.

Each struggle faced, a step to grow,
In this brave dance, I’ve come to know,
That being me is quite enough,
Embracing who I am, though tough.

The Crook’s Downfall

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM89

Your final three words for this week are:
UNLUCKY
CREEPY
LADDER

The unlucky, creepy crook one night,
Climbed a ladder, hoping for a heist so bright.
But fate had other plans in store,
As he teetered high, he lost his core.

With a stumble and a slip, down he went,
A tumble through air, his balance spent.
Oh, the irony in his sneaky plight,
The ladder crumbled, swallowed by the night.

He landed with a thud, in the shadows’ cloak,
Dreams of riches vanished, like a cruel joke.
So heed this tale of the crook so brash,
Sometimes misfortune gives a wicked crash.

Healing Through the Rain

M.A.D. Works

When tears like raindrops start to fall,
We feel the weight of sorrow call.
Our hearts are tender, heavy with pain,
Yet hope shines bright like sun through rain.

In moments dark, we search for peace,
A gentle touch, a sweet release.
Though sadness lingers, love imparts,
A healing balm for fragile hearts.

Where laughter and joy were enough.

Birthday

M.A.D. Works

In celebration of my birthday, I have created an acrostic poem.

Balloons and cakes all around,
In laughter and joy, friends are found.
Radiant smiles, the day feels right,
Time for wishes, a magical night.
Happy memories that we create,
Dreams celebrated, it’s never too late.
A special day just for you,
Years to cherish, and blessings too!

Unstoppable Roar

M.A.D. Works

In the quiet of the night, I hear a whisper,
A flicker of hope ignites my soul’s desire.
With every setback, my heart beats stronger,
Like a lion awakened, my spirit won’t tire.

Promises may falter, but I will rise,
With courage as my armor, I embrace the fight.
Each bruise a badge, a testament to my strength,
I find my voice, turning darkness to light.

I’ll roar like the thunder, fierce and alive,
No longer a shadow, I’m carving my way.
With dreams as my compass, I’m ready to soar,
Through the storms and the silence, I’ll seize the day.

So let the world listen, hear my song,
For every challenge faced, I’ll prove them wrong.
With passion in my heart and fire in my core,
I’ll stand tall and proud, and I’ll always roar.

Embracing Serenity

M.A.D. Works

Worry consumes like fog that’s here to stay,
Anxious thoughts entwined, they lead me astray.
Emotions run wild, like a storm on the sea,
Yet deep in my heart, peace whispers to me.

It wraps around troubles, a soft, gentle light,
Calming the chaos that dances at night.
Though shadows may linger and doubts may arise,
In the end, it’s serenity that opens my eyes.

So I’ll breathe in the calm, let go of the strife,
Embracing the stillness, reclaiming my life.
For although worry clings, it cannot control,
The tranquility found in a soothed, steady soul.

Can I ask a favor?

M.A.D. Works
favor

Can I ask a favor, if you please?
It’s really quite simple, my heart’s at ease.
Just be there for me, when times get tough,
Your presence alone can be more than enough.

When I feel lost, and shadows creep,
Hold out your hand, I’ll take a leap.
In moments of need, just stand by my side,
With you in my corner, I’ll take on the tide.

So here is my wish, from my heart it flows,
Can I ask a favor? It’s all that I chose.
Just be there for me, like the stars above,
In the times I need you, show me your love.

In Your Light

M.A.D. Works
Three Things Challenge #MM87

Your three words today are:
ALLOWED
ALOUD
ASTOUND

In the twilight where wonders weave,
I am allowed to be astounded, believe.
Your gestures dance like stars in the night,
A unique rhythm, pure delight.

With every glance, a story unfolds,
A tapestry of colors, bold yet untold.
In your presence, the mundane takes flight,
I am allowed to be astounded by your light.

Yearning Unfulfilled

M.A.D. Works

Promises made,
yet never fulfilled,
I find myself asking,
“Why do I still care?”
Is my yearning for love,
for acceptance,
so deep,
so desperate?

Poetry

Before Birthday Blues

M.A.D. Works

In the quiet of twilight, a grey mood descends,
Monday’s my birthday, where joy feels like ends.
Once sparkled with laughter, now shadows infringe,
A clouded reflection, emotions on the fringe.

Yet deep in the silence, there’s comfort to find,
A moment of stillness, a chance to unwind.
For grey hues can soften the edges of light,
And maybe Monday, I’ll find my way bright.

Poetry

Moments of Light

M.A.D. Works

On a day that felt so bleak,
With work troubles at their peak,
I found a friend to talk,
Together we would walk,
Making sadness feel less weak.
