Healing

The road to healing
Is long and winding
I must follow it
One step
One breath
At a time

Delight

Wander down a country road
Flowers in your hair
Dance inside your living room
Without a single care
Wish upon a shooting star
Or say a sacred prayer
Live your life with pure delight
Lay your true self bare

Unrealized Potential

His thoughts came and went
Before they could fully form
Like threatening storm clouds
Full of unrealized potential

No Right Time

There is not right time
No one will give you permission
Reach for the dream
Start learning something new
Say the thing you want to say
Grasp the chance
It's better to try and nurse the bruises of defeat
Than befriend the bitterness of regret for life

War Paint

I have worn my tear stains like war paint
The flush of agony, despair, and rage, too
I have unleashed keening so potent
The gods stopped to answer
With a path to deliverance

Rather

Even in the deepest darkness 
You will not reach for the light
You would rather drown in your pride
Than consider you may not be right

Accomplishment

Some days
Getting out of bed
Putting on my adulting pants and
Mechanically doing what needs to be done
Is an accomplishment

Unfolding

I used to try to force my day to unfold according to my will.
Now, I try to allow the will of the day to unfold me.

Bedtime Stories

Tranquil stories
Woven into a tapestry
Of sweet dreams and
Hopeful musings

Nothing to Prove

When the truth comes out
It's quiet
No pomp and circumstance
The truth has nothing to prove
