Renee Tidmore Poems

It takes courage to change yourself
It takes courage to reach out to someone
To admit that you can't do it by yourself.
...

We teach our children to respect others,
It is something we come to expect.
It seems that the older they become,
The manners they tend to forget.
...

From the day I learned about you
I wondered who you would be
For nine months, I waited and waited
Finally, the day arrived and you came to me.
...

I have a special area in my life
Very few people know of it
This place is reserved for special people
You may not even know if I place you there.
...

You close up your heart
You close up your feelings
You close up your mind
Why not open the door?
...

Loneliness is the hardest part of life.
Sometimes when things are hectic,
the solitude can be your saving grace.
But, when one really needs a friend,
...

Do I really matter?
Do I really count?
Do my feelings show?
Do you really know?
...

Morning, noon and night
Every day, nothing but pain
HS has changed my life.
I will never be the same again.
...

Seems that no one cares anymore
Everyone is in such a hurry to head out the door
No one takes the time to speak kindly to others,
It just seems that it has become such a chore.
...
