What I Am inside Me got us thru year '20, houseless & sent to street Life. No matter the darkness We ran from. We let the past go, to know We made it. Free to Live in Lightness.
He was a grain of sand and you were the ocean.
You are so much more than he could ever hope to be,
and when your tide comes in he will be a distant memory.
Thrive. Thriving. Thrived.
I'm sorry I lied.
'No worries, I know you did your best. Let's try a different solution.'
Bottomless tears now dried.
Yes I am broken, but I am not defeated. I am like a salmon breaking through the surface of the water in order to fight the current. I am a glow stick breaking in the hands of a child on a summer evening, spreading my light.
Walking thousands of stepsMeasuring footprints left behind Stumbling blocksAnalyzingWalking through slippery roadsDead endsAscending mountains Descending Facing ephemeral seasons
On the fifteenth day
Of April,
Of the eighteenth year,
Lay my motivation
To rub dry tears from my eyes
And have a great day.
I'm not antisocial,
Nor do I hate people when I go away.
I actually thrive around them,
But there is a limit for me everyday.
I don't like large groups,
Unless it's a festival or concert.
You have no idea how badly i hurt, how much pain i endure when my anxieties and fears pulse through my blood…
How easy it seems to just let them out, it only costs an inch of flesh…
Life is short and my time will soon be up,
Death was approaching and my next breath could have been my very last,
The mountain seemed too steep to climb,
But the time was now, the time to persevere,and the time to strive.
See,
I'm seeing
I'm dreaming,
I've been achieving,
Overcoming and healing
from a life of grieving
embarking on a mission to freedom
there is no concealing me
its been my destiny
Like many things
Perfect waves end up breaking
...
For they are not faulty
When they are born
Growing from force
I have experienced flightWings gave me strengthOpportunities floated in the blue skyI reached I walked through fireTemptations beckoned me
