My spirit first approached me

In the fiery autumn forest

I felt her breath through my mouth

Desperate gasps ripped from my chest

A creature of solitude

A singular defender

Failed to remedy the poisons

And kill the leeches that claimed her

I was frightened and cried out

Senses of the earth overwhelming

I let the poison roam freely

The disease fully claim me

For years I ignored her

And ...

My brain is my heart

Words are my soul

I wish to do what I want

Not to do what I’m told

A diamond in the flesh

But invisible to all

It takes true one to know one;

To see far beyond

My outer skin

And to instead see my words

My thoughts, my emotions

To see my heart; what’s within

Everyone shines

When put on display

A true ornament

Trapped in a gilded cage

But I wish to be wild and free

To go on...

I enjoy hiking.

Seems strange I forgot,

But you never liked it.

That was fine.

I was never passionate about it

And it got forgotten

For a long time after you left

I felt a present absence

A leave that was left unrest

But today it was filled by someone

I hadn’t seen in some time

The part of me I had left behind

To be with you...

Self awareness is the biggest rediscovery in life.

Once you are aware of your triggers, thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and trauma, that’s when you truly begin to know yourself. That’s the first step to growing. You can’t help yourself when you don’t know yourself. Once we grow up and no one is telling us how we need to live, we discover our true values. Our truest self. We start to unlearn belief...

Over and under

Over and Over

Under, it’s over

When will this pain find its lover

I am stuck in the middle

Of dying and loving

New set of eyes for my lover

Please, no more shoving

I shed my skin to show my lover

Now, I without a cover

Need to rediscover

The world without a lover.

No one could ever love me like you

Not another soul can hurt like you

I am all but one soul

Lost but in ...

Life is simple

Get up

Do what you have to

Sleep again

A rhythm that repeats

Day in and day out

That’s all life is

Or so I thought

But one day

I found something I was missing

Something more

A person to live for

My dearest friend

She gives me meaning

And the feelings grew into love

Maybe one day

My life will change once more

And me and her can be something different

Something special

But fo...

Her soul moves through life as swift as a train.

Constantly moving,

Each car a different side of her.

One car for stress and worry,

Another for joy and freedom,

A third for anger and frustration,

A fourth for the mystery of the unknown.

Each one a crucial part of her existence.

She gets lost between the train cars all too frequently.

Stuck between a mix of them all.

She often finds herself p...

Do we rediscover or re -define?

We cannot unsee, or turn back time.

We can move forward, but never back,

We rebrand, rename to make up for our lack

A brand new name with confetti and glitter

Cannot hide the fact that our love has turned bitter

I sought to rediscover you in my life

Yet you filled me heartache and strife

Then I realized in my fruitless attempts to discover you…

I lost myself, a...
