The Door Starts to Open

The Beginning

A young boy with so much hope, so much passion with love to spread.

The goal to succeed is just a test. To be so grateful is nothing short of his best.

The love is there and he knows what to do. But really does he know what is coming up soon.

See not everything is perfect that is viewed through the naked eye. Because behind closed doors

sits a much greater surprise. See we never know when the worst will come. We only rely on the

stuff we know. The pain and the anger has yet to show its face. So we cannot fear for what we

have yet to see. We can only prepare for what we see as a threat. This young boy we can only

hope he can see the truth. Not every story will end with the most happiest of endings. We can

just only hope that he realizes the truth can come whether big or small from nothing to

something. Cause life has chapters and has as many as it wants. We can only wait till the last one

is DONE!

Look in Front of You

You say life is tough but you chose the things you do.

You have your own path and nobody can change the controls but you

Your life can become anything that your mind and body wants it to be

So complaining that it is tough is something inside, you need to see

Wondering what life holds and the future is something you cannot control

The complaining that you’re not worrying but the fear is messing up your flow

In reality your life can only be managed and taken in control by you

And you hold the ability to make your own individual dreams come true

Relax, take a deep breath and see your plans laid in front on your hands

Because you know deep down that you manage your own destiny

Because the controller of your life is you and no longer a fantasy.

A True Calling

Those days I wake up and all hope seems to be lost

I click my home button and see a cute face with a smile

I see a three-year-old baby, holding my hand

It always reminds of the path to my plan

The bond we have I could never let her down

I took the responsibility to let her be my biggest fan

I definitely see myself making all her dreams come true

I will respond to that cute face… I will always love you

Unforgettable Strength

Every day I feel myself telling you thank you

The job you did is nothing short of a miracle

You made the sacrifice to teach me to the very end

You made two ends meet raising only two kids

You are a strong mother to be doing this all alone

A single mother is a role that is hard to become

You did your absolute best and I turned out fine

In my eyes you will always be one of a kind.

I did not have much but you made it work

So thank you because I love you very much

(Section II)

The Door is Wide Open

Page 11: Trey Gardner's Chapbook

The Door is Now Open

It is safe to say this boy found out what he truly values

Loving his family with constant smiles and happiness

In a sense we learn the grass is not always green on the other side

But for this young boy opening up a big new door

He did not want to see what is on the other side

As crazy as it seems we always look for new options

Now that the door is open and the journey now begins

True Colors Start to Show

Everything seems to be fine but really it’s not

The truth shall reveal of a character, which is the plot

I mean deep down inside I know what I am feeling

Why can’t I express and show what is really inside

This anger is not a real part of me and my life

I am the only one who can make it right?

Should I show my feelings?

And voice my opinions?

Will everything become clear?

Is hating this character a fear?

The Storm above Us

Love is like a storm, they we never want to see

It changes our action and shows us our options to be complete

Love is like a storm bringing all the bad down at once

There is no sunshine but you have to expect wonderful weather to come

Love is like a storm that dark clouds will hinder your vision

The rain will come but you have to fight through it and stay consistent

Love is like a storm that will slowly fade away

That’s true love when fight through the storm and your love will stay

Is It Worth It

The pressure on life is so unbearable

I mean the pressure was so acceptable

It was like the feeling was so contractible

Now the pressure can be so forgettable

Looking at the future it is now so achievable

End of Sadness

Being sad is a mixed emotion because it blocks the happiness and shifts its course. Once we

become sad we feel lost hope. But we need to remind ourselves that is more happiness inside that

we can promote. It is not bad to feel sadness but don't let it consume you and you get so reckless.

In the end you have to remember so many people want to see you happy and cheerful. So show

everyone from the inside and out that you are so beautiful.

Closed Chapter

You are gone and can no longer cause me pain

You thought you were a father but now you are a he

I can only say thank you for ending this part of my life

Because now I can be a better man than you ever were to me

(Section III)

Closed Doors to A New Beginning

Page 18: Trey Gardner's Chapbook

The Crack of a Beginning

Ring! Ring! The clock in my head says the time is here

This young life is over and the adult life I shall not fear

The thoughts and the motivation will stick with me forever

That the road behind me will make me a true believer

All the trials and the headaches are now all over

That this chapter now has peace so now there is closure

Lost Memories

It hangs, It dangles, and attracts lots of noise. It seems to be annoying but to me it means much

more. I wear these dog tags so it is like a everyday object to me. It reminds me of something I

don’t want to be. On this dog tag it has my father’s name. He lost that title when it walked out on

me. It is a prime example of what I do not want to become. So I wear it to remind myself how I

will not do the same to my son.

Time to Move on

The past is gone

There is no going back

I will move on

And that is a fact

The past is gone

I am forever sorry

I will move on

There is more to acquire

Ultimate Destination

Time flies as we lose track of the goal in front of us. We see the obstacles we see the highs and

the lows. Sometimes we dig ourselves into big holes. We have to realize we are strong and we

are smart. We can overcome anything when we believe what is in our heart. We have to trust

ourselves and tell ourselves yes we can. Once we are back on track everything will not be

perfectly fine but we know we have the ultimate goal waiting at the finish line.

The Door is Now Closed but A New Chapter Begins

The light is brighter than ever before

Now my life has a very smooth flow

It took a while with the bumps and bruises

It was a life lesson to the final conclusion

Now it’s here and now am happier than ever

It is time to end a now closed chapter

You are gone and can no longer cause me pain

Just thinking you could ruin my life was just insane

I thought you were a father but now you are a he

I say thank you for walking out and letting me be

Because this chapter is ending and my new life begins

I am finally a happy person with no need to pretend

Big Future

The lessons were learned. Those emotions were handled. The past will be the past. One can

never forget it. They say you can overcome anything when you are at your lowest point. So

looking back at the pain that one person could cause. It just seems so real that the future cannot

hold anyone back at all. I can truly see that one’s life can be in chapters. In fact you see this

person’s life is in thirds. It’s crazy you see because one’s life can end up to be all about me.
