The changing season

As the leaves fall around me I see the beauty in the changing season Sometimes there is no need to reason Everything that people do I try to remember that when I feel pain I have to look inside myself again Find the inner beauty of who I am As I find the ground I … Continue reading The changing season

For the ashes of what once was 

As I walk through the trees  I feel the breeze  It is all I have to calm me  In this moment as I grieve  For the wishes and dreams I did not receive  For the ashes of what once was  For the memories that you gave me  For the days that I have wept  For … Continue reading For the ashes of what once was 

Finding balance and strength 

I hear the sound of the world outside  As I try to find balance in my life  I have always struggled to get by  I have never stopped asking myself why  I have made the decisions I have so far  Then I reflect and tell myself  This is who you are  With every step forward  … Continue reading Finding balance and strength 

Finding myself again

When all is lost I look inward  Finding myself again  Nothing has gone as planned  Yet I still stand  With my head high  As the world looks smaller below  I look to the sky  Nyx

Ripped apart

Live and learn they say  Why do we have to learn By being ripped apart Where does the pain end  When does this learning start  I do not believe these words are true  Each piece that is pulled from me  Is another piece gone  I was always this strong  What I have learned is how … Continue reading Ripped apart

Break through

Once again I am given clarity  When I break through the pain  I am grateful for these moments  These moments I can see Just how strong I really am  When I look at what is in front of me I prepare myself once more  There is a tally I have taken  I know the score  … Continue reading Break through

Where I breathe 

Peace fills me  As I feel the breeze in the air  Listening to the sound of nature  I feel like I am home  This is where my heart is Outside behind the trees  This is where I can rest  This is where I breathe  No negative words No negative emotions  This is all I think  … Continue reading Where I breathe 

Holding on

I keep my head held high  Hardening my heart as the day ticks by Questioning my emotions  Letting my mind drift  Listening as the ocean Pulls in the waves  Feeling the peace  That this sound brings  Holding on to who I am  As I feel my feet dig into the sand  Nyx 

Insight 

At this moment  I do not want to be me  Insight is a gift and a curse  It shows me things  Things I wish I could not see  Nyx 

When hope leaves you 

I sit here and reflect upon my life  I question my emotions  I question my decisions  I question where I am  How did I get here  Where do I go  Back to the familiar pain  Or forward to something  That may be the same  I feel the panic as it rises  Unsure which way to … Continue reading When hope leaves you
