Into the Woods

Image
Alone, in your space.  A feeling that won't go away.  You've done some shit.  You've seen more, Too much more.. Somehow coming all together.  A darkness from within,  Then blending with your Light .  Who are you?  Why are you?  Easily the same on any given day, Yet everywhere and nowhere at the same time.  To be seen.  To be acknowledged. That twinkle in your eye,  With that smile on your lips. I see you, Can you see me? Why are you scared?  Is it your scars? I'm scarred too...   Scars run deep, It's true.  It's easy to numb than to feel.  I'm scared. Of what? Still putting that together. Something about my inner darkness having a hold on me. Deep huh? Maybe just tonight Somehow I still know, It'll all work out.  As I believe in myself, and I won't let myself down without trying harder next time.   I won't go back to my basest self.  I've come too far, Seen too much.. Holy Darkness has a ...

Pressure makes Diamonds

Image
Pressure makes diamonds     I grew up in Religion. Spirituality defined by rules followed and Laws upheld. Pressure. Going again and again Spirituality strengthened by commitments made and covenants upheld. More pressure.. A desire to be the best of me Strengthened by my “upheld spirituality.” Perceived Truth and still learning the greater Truth associated..  To crash, then burn. A husk leftover from an imagined reality. The feeling of it all: Numbness, darkness, pain… Tears and yelling.   Scars on the Heart A received black eye or two.. More darkness... Applied Pressure. To that of finding God again. Then Remembering the feelings felt, Just without the face of him. Spirituality found in the peace of self. An assurance and a confidence.   To the point and place of a quiet solitude A Mountain breeze in the wind. Feeling the Mountain dirt beneath your feet Earthy essence feeding your soul.  Healing.. as a smile starts to hit your face.  Feel everything a...

A tortured Artist

Image
  A tortured Artist   A fulfilled home. A dream the heart made A Beauty found in the mundane places. Someone else’s dream Suddenly yours.. Daylight’s here. What’s next? The new horizon. Brought with new people. Family made, people you care about. Someones who changed your life. With another yet, to bring it home.. I saw someone that looks like you Well a 17 yr older version of you. From afar I did a double take..   Some reason   Somehow   My head defaults to you I wonder how you’re doing.. How’s your life going? Let’s hear your current story A Place where we could connect Details we could laugh about . . .. I open my eyes. Odd that. I have some of what I Need.  Some.. .  A prayer to the wind.. The cracked window Is still partially open Find what works for you But don’t be afraid to open it further   You are who you desire to be   More of a choice Than the destiny of the fallen attempts.   As daunting as it may seem.. I believe now. I'm r...

All at once

Image
All at once Sometimes I want to rest Sometimes I can’t  Many times I won’t  Or choose too finally Everything at once. A sense of being  To a sense of belonging to belong, Somewhere new  Somewhere unknown  It makes no sense  It makes all the sense A healthy sense of being Everything, with nothing  Everything at once. Pressure makes diamonds. How much can you endure? It’s bruised knuckles baby. Never said it’d be easy, Give it a try and you won’t ever want it back; Healthy contractions. Somehow it makes sense. Too smart for the world around you Too nice to belong to society. Draw that line. Take that place.  You belong to the reality you create. All of it. Everything at once. Yell. (Period) Scream. (Period) Yell, scream, With that smile on your lips… Everything at once. Never said it would be easy. But I do know it’s always worth it. A healthy cliche  Mixed with healthy contractions. Bruised knuckles are draining your life, Heaven or Hell Which...
