Never Repeat (a poetry reading)

I'll Wait: A Throwback Video

Back in 2013 I wrote and posted Never Repeat. The next year I did a poetry reading of it. I was then going to put it in To Love, but as I edited it and focused the book on the love the poem didn’t fit anymore. Now I get to share it with you here, again.

Never repeat
not a single word
only write your heart,
the soul deep inside.
Let out one song
singing it loud
be proud
of the depths that are felt
dreams while live.
Remember this day
happens but once so
shine light with smiles,
cherish love
and see everything;
never repeating
not a single word.

The Sea: A Throwback Post

I'll Wait: A Throwback Video

This is a throwback post to an older piece of poetry for me, called The Sea. I originally wrote this in college. It was for a class that I took I believe in 2007. I then edited in 2013 and again in 2016 for both editions of my first poetry book, Growing Poems.

In Feburary 2019 when I wanted to get more serious about promoting my writing and art I recorded the poem as a poetry reading. I never posted that reading here, so in my efforts to make sure everything I do is on this site I am sharing it with you today.

I do hope you enjoy it and let me know what you think.

In Times: A Poem

In Times A Poem

In times of sorrow
hold me near.
In times of joy
show me you care.
In times of worry 
protect me from my fear.
In times of peace
help me stay aware.
In all times, in every way
show me your love, my dear.

Dreams Fighting Reality (poetry reading): A Throwback Post

by tiffanyPoetry, recorded December 3, 2020October 23, 2020No Comments

Dreams Fighting Reality is a poem I wrote a while ago. I recorded it as a poetry reading back in 2014.

Dreams Fighting Reality

My dreams danced away together
from my very own reality.
Like ballerinas trapped within my mind
They danced away 
so I could not find the love I wanted;
The love I wished was mine.
Yes, my dreams slowly danced away
when reality told me
he was here to stay
But he seems to have strayed
because here comes my dreams
on this new day.
My dreams once again dance near by
as I force my reality to be mine.
Because this fight for what is right,
what is fair and what must be
has left a hole deep inside of me
so I fight to keep my dreams
and I fight to change my reality

Changing To A Dance: A Poem

by tiffanyPoetry December 1, 2020November 25, 2020No Comments

Changing To A Dance a Poem

I'm changing this fight
into a dancce.
I will not war
not against my own life.
Instead the trumpets
will be the rhythm of my feet.
Turn the battle cries 
into songs of praise.
This will be a new day,
one with no more fighting
 not against my own life.
I'll allow the ebs and flows
to direct my dance,
know it's God's will.
I will follow.
I will go.
He leads, I follow,
without a fight,
just a dance.

Count The Rhymes A Poem

One, Two, Three, Four
Where is the open door?
Is there an opportunity for me?
Am I walking closer to you?
Are all the right things done?

Four, Three, Two, One
The race will be won.
As I draw close to you my spirit flew
each opportunity will set me free
to follow the one I adore.

Let Me Be (a poem) image

Let me be
in the warm summer air
hugged by loved ones
with their children near.
Let me be
in the lovign garden 
without a single care
with smiles on the faces of those I hold dear.
Let us be
together for now and always.

I wrote “Let Me Be” in July 2020 while I waited for my delayed summer vacation. I was missing my family and longing for our annual summer vacation, which is always a time to relax and be surrounded by love.

I Believed (A Poem)

by tiffanyPoetry, Poetry Portfolio April 21, 2020January 5, 2021No Comments

“I Believed” is a poem about my relationship with theater and my beliefs. They have changed over the year, but one thing remains true the stage is part of me.

I don't think I ever truly believed;
not in what was given to me,
not in what I once chose.
No I don't think I ever truly believed
in Wicca, in paganism.

No I didn't believe
in the magic of nature;
not fully,
not until I saw a creator.

What I truly believe in was the stage.
The lights and sound.
I truly and fully believed
in the magic of theatre,
the constructed fantasies.

I truly believed in 
standing tall and giving it my all,
shedding reality showing my soul
with words written, but not my own.

Yes,I believed in the stage,
but confusion of a new life,
in the growing to be an adult.
I forgot.
I turned from my first love
as though a choice had to be made,
as though it was the Creator or the stage.
Not realizing the creator made me for the stage.
Not realzing that all of me deserves to breathe.

Now I believe
There is a Creator up above,
who smiles and loves
when I take the stage and am all of me.
Now I believe
in all of me.

Rivers and Ocean Breeze

by tiffanyUncategorized March 17, 2020February 25, 2020No Comments

Rivers and Ocean Breeze was originally a song that I edited into a poem. It is a romantic rhyming poem that blends elements of nature and fantasy.

I'm holding you tight
in my own mind,
knowing one day
you will be mine. 

Let the rivers and roads
lead you home.
I've lassoed the moon 
and it waits for you.

Let the ocean breeze
call you close to me.
We'll live in a sweet melody
and I'll share my love with you.

Let your calling dreams
guide you near to me.
Near or far,
no matter where you are,
please be guided to me.

I'm holding you tight
in my own mind,
knowing one day
you will be mine.
