Sink

I can't allowΒ this to happen again
Losing sight as quick as I blink
Relaxed without a life jacket
Now down to the bottom I sink
I'm really tired of the heartache
I wish the pain inside would shrink
It's a struggle to not go back
​​​​​​And I can't concentrate to think

I want to know how to let it out
I had one way I could release
But being that way was wrong
Ultimately didn't bring me peace
I just don't know how to move on
The movies inside me won't cease
Reminding me what I had good
Only making my grief increase

I try not to come here often
The dark depths I have inside
It's difficult to live down here
Where the demons I have reside
I try hard to conseal it all
From the discomfort I try to hide
But I can't keep up the act now
I need support again by my side

Being Me

Shelley...hang on in there!Β  There is always bad times and good times. The pain will ease but it can take a long, long time. I am not convinced it ever truly goes away to be perfectly honest but it can get to a point were you have more good days than bad. I really truly hope you will be okay. A broken heart can take a long, long time to heal its cracks. It tends to remain scarred though. Hugs πŸ€—πŸ€— x

Why Now


I can't ignore the beating drums in my heart

It's like you and I have never been apart...

Curtain call

When the lights fall

Curtain call

My course carved as the rivers wore down the stone
The trials were by design as it was always known...

Perfectly imperfect

I am enough because I am
In every ocean I have swam
I am exactly how I was designed to be...

Introspection

Introspection

I went to see
my reflection
in the water
and I was blinded
by the sun.
