If wishes fell like rain, then certainly I am a storm If dreams blossomed like flowers, then certainly I am a field My hopes seem to soar, as if they are an eagle My ambitions over take me, like a fire among a forest If peace and joy shined like the sun, then certainly it has touched my skin If sadness and anger were like the ocean, then certainly I have visited it once or twice If blessings were like stars, I’d say I’ve had many. If love was all I had left, I’d say I have the world If my heart were a compass, I’d say it has pointed me in the right direction
Unfolded Molded Flipped Flopped Tucked Plucked And hidden out of sight Everything has its place in a space where it’s not suppose to be
How did I end up here? In this place in a space, where I’m not suppose to be?
Where are my socks, shirts, pants, and shoes? Why can’t I find what I need and what I don’t then I do?
Could it be that I am unorganized? Or is it that I lost my path to my bed? Either way, I’m dreading clean up day Here I lay almost asleep on sheets that need to be put away
When the day comes for me to finally clean up, then my task will be over Until then I’ll wait patiently with grace And deal with each item separately Until that day give me strength to face my demons
Everything works for your good So until clean up day comes I’ll move the items like I’m playing chess Watch over me and bless this mess
Today is that day. The day where I get to look myself in the mirror and love what’s looking back at me. Today’s the day I get to be bold and courageous. Today’s the day I get to be the person I was meant to be. Today’s the day, I get my life back. No longer will I look backwards but pave my path to my bright future. I’m sorry that I have to let you go. You were needed. Oh, you were needed. For the nights where I cried myself to sleep. The days where confusion and anger were my best friends. I am not me without you. But now it’s time to start anew. I thank you for being strong enough for me. I thank you for protecting me all those years, but it’s time. Goodbye old friend, one day I hope we meet again but this time I’ll have the strength to withstand all the things you tried to protect me from. It’s time for me to walk in the light and let the darkness go. I’ll forever love you. Goodbye old friend.
Is this what my life adds up too? Ups and downs Twist and turns When will my life be simple When will I be able to walk down a straight path without having to skip over cracks in the world Maybe my life isn’t a straight path But more like an ocean There’s no set path The wind comes and goes and blows me into whatever direction I should be going Yeah My life is like an ocean Out of order but right where it needs to be
She waited until he walked into the alley behind her apartment building. She thought to herself, different ways to tell him. Should she drop down out of no where? Should she tie him up? Should she walk up to him without her mask. This moment is pivotal. What if he breaks up with her. What if he tells the world who she is. This moment is pivotal. It could change the course of their relationship. It could change the course of the world. She will no longer be able to save and protect. What is she loses him? What is she loses her ability to stay a secret from the world. This moment is pivotal. With her thoughts racing she climbed across the buildings following him as he excited the alley. She thought she missed her chance. She continued to follow him until he stopped at a flower shop. She waited for him to go in and buy flowers. She wondered who he were buying them for. He started walking down the street and then he turned into another alley. She thought to herself, that now is her chance. Suddenly he stopped. He looked around and yelled, “come out”. Confused she looked around, wondering who he was talking too. He continued, “ come out, I know it’s you. I’ve known for a while. You don’t have to worry, your secret is safe with me…. Your secret is safe with me Kat. Your secret is safe with me.”
Butterflies in my stomach Heart beats in my chest Sweat on my brow My eyes watch as they come down the stairs My heart begins to flutter as they walk closer to me In this moment, somethings happening I never felt this way before I can see my future in them I can see my life with them This must be what love is like
Surrounded by Gods creation, I begin to look around. When the stars show up at night I sense my Father with me as I lay my head to sleep. I see His smile in the sunrise and His heart in the clouds. I feel His love when the wind hits my face. The heat from the sun reminds me of His everlasting love for me. As I look through the trees I see His creation covered by colors of green, browns, reds, pinks, and blues. Surrounded by Gods creation I look around and say thank you.
