You are beautiful What “lies” in the mirror blurs See the truth inside

I’m so glad you’re home! So glad to see your face! Can’t wait for your hugs I've been waiting to greet you all day To salute you with my kiss! Hmmm… Everything seems all right with the world now. 2015 ®

I’m in a state of funk right now, you know When I don’t wanna come or go Sit and sulk down in my zone I don’t mean to be rude This is just the vibe I choose...today Don’t bother me with highs and lows I’m neither hot nor cold Tomorrow I’ll be bright and shiny Flying high on life Written by Melinda Y.

I am addicted to you Lost in survival mode Taking you as needed for pain Taken on an empty heart For immediate relief I ingest you into my soul For complete saturation I need you for full functionality Awaken my brain Alert! High! You are habit forming Don’t give me a remedy I walk the 12 steps that lead back to you   Written by: Melinda Y. Tomlinson 2015 ©

Is it wrong to lie to preserve the provision of sanity? Is it wrong to disguise torment to reveal the overwrought ambitiousness of hope? Is it wrong to hold on to this truth?

I give her permission...   To love herself   Be good to herself   Admire herself   Embrace herself   To know herself   I give my permission   For her to be proud of herself   Renew herself   Rebound herself   Over estimate herself   I give myself permission to   Desire myself   Want my myself    Encourage myself   Be myself   I give me my permission   My permission is golden
