Third of December

It’s the third of December
Don’t lose your fire my sweet pea
I hope things are getting better there
The world will be doing fine eventually
Try not to get too deep now, as what you were
I’d say that to myself too, really

I bet you remember
Those times when we get to behave naively
Times when we treat every day as fun as summer
When times were fun and free
Unfortunately, things are starting to change with different weather
But that’s okay, these things are still pretty

Don’t forget what life is for you, like different colors in a blender
No matter what you get mixed into, we’d somehow end with art
Though beauty is still, in the eye of the beholder
People are there for you, but you just can’t seem to know which ones are true
People have different taste and so is life, life has different meanings
Myself as I am, I’m starting to think that life is telling me to endure for the sake of my vision

The heart never lies, I guess everyone needs a hug now?
Well, I’d appreciate it if you’d gave me one
This is for you and for me, for the better us, Goodluck to the both of us
Not your typical inspiring poem but I hope it matters that I feel it too
Days, months, or even years I’d come back to this poem and say
a lot of time has passed since Third of December

This is one of my favorites of yours & I love your conversational tone. I love how this sounds like it's a message between friends, but with so much affection, one might wonder if these two are more than friends. Maybe it's just the distance & impossibility that makes a couple back off to a comfortable pace, waiting to see what the world brings. This sounds hopeful but also realistic. I love the ambivalence -- do they love each other or are they friends? (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Aw, this reminds me of the little voices in my head pushing me to the brighter sides of things. Well done.

Reminding you of such things are really pleasant to hear, thanks for the review Pax :))

I absolutely love this. I really need to hear this today. Stuff has been so rapid and so chaotic now and this helped me refocus and calm down. I hope we can become good friends, I look forward to reading more.

Thanks for appreciating this piece of mine, things are really chaotic right now, I can really relate to that, how are you tho? Mine's being on a constant pressure haha

[Ace Jaxon]

Sorry it has been a hot minute. MY life is doing way better now. I ended some toxic relationships. Fell in love, taking things slowly, and have been very busy writing a novel.

Thanks for this comforting poem. I'm not hugging anyone except my husband right now due to Covid, but here's a *virtual hug* if that helps.

[Gabby The GAB]

I almost forgot the feeling of writing inspirational stuff that'd affect other people too haha this must be because of the song I just found. Thanks Kari! :))

A cyber virtual hug then, as this poem is so positive and motivating in a cheery way. Kudos for this fab muse.!

Plz do read and review my newest poem here too.

[Gabby The GAB]

To have people saying they'd be sending virtual hugs are really cute haha I didn't expect this to be a contagious feeling tho. Thank you and I'd be happy to do the same :))
