Enmeshment
By Walter D. Terrell
Day after day , time after time
Month after month, year after year
Dysfunctiality joining dysfunctionality
Loss of reality joining search for reality
Nothing meshed in the past or from the past
Normalcy was not within grasp
Everyone else is the O.K.
Who is really all that , On the surface they say
Who is really all that
What is the depth of their reasoning?
Who is affecting their being
How does maturity develop?
When we are enmeshed in an envelope
Under Duress
By Walter David Terrell Jr.
Under Duress
Empathy is employed, while under constant personal stress
Experiences develop an understanding deep within
Our hearts express compassion that is continuing
The draining pain and misfortune
Causes one to carefully move with increased caution
Constantly having the past woes to reflect on
As other’s issues come to light
We seek to assist, in their own plight
Altruistic feelings embrace us with sincere insight
Helping in one another’s ongoing fights
Unmistakable, so often shakable, interior is the fright
Assisting, so that they increase their own sense of might
Diligent we must be, in their sight
Never letting up, not even a little – slight
Our hearts to always be contrite
Realizing continuously to always Love and to do what is right .//
Freedom
By Walter David Terrell Jr.
There is a cost
Sometimes it is all lost
The struggles we encounter
Helps us find ways to make things better
The pain and discomfort experienced with fear and anguish
Is understood in any language
Inner turmoil
Morality foiled
Unbearable circumstances trying to escape
To somewhere, where it is actually safe
We seek help and work for peace
So our family, friends and yes the world can get relief
Seeking help from God, in this world so greedy
Praying for each other, because we are indeed, so needy
We were created to glorify God , in our lives
So to reflect this outwardly, sincerely and genuinely > should be what we strive
Embarking on a new beginning
Each and everyday, ,helping all those who are living
Our endeavors each and every day
Showing outwardly, even in the words we say
Sharing ourselves and our abilities
In any way we can assist in another’s remedies
Resisting all the political and worldly tensions
Working toward empathetic and altruistic behaviors in all our relations
.//
Intimidation
By Walter David Terrell Jr.
Scared to be exposed
The reasons untold
Private issues unfold
Our world may crumble around us
Never knowing who surrounds us
Supporting our views
In all that we say and do
Concrete thinking
Lost in a matter of a blinking
Of the eye
Trying not to cry
Not to let the outside get on your inside
And that would make you purely miserable where you reside
God so Loved us all
Wake up to His Word His Call
//
Visitors
By Walter David Terrell Jr.
Time and time again
We encounter new friends
An experience that opens you up
To the vulnerable, exposure of self, at times you might practice, stealth
So you do not get embarrassed about your personal my-self
We need to connect with others
Those are the stimuli in our lives
Helping us realize
That we are all connected in a gene pool
Of a myriad of different mind sets and schools
Learning through interactions
Getting to understand another’s reactions to your personality
That probably is completely different from another’s reality,
God help us truly Love one another
We are all technically Sisters and Brothers.
