I need a break
A break from being exhausted
Hurt
And sad
A moment from being mind-drunk
Paralyzed
And mad
Angry at how life got me
How it treated me for show
I only need a moment
To keep going
To keep afloat

Regaining Lost Aspects: Mind and Soul
Through book events, poetry, and creativity, we dive a little deeper into humanity.

I need a break
A break from being exhausted
Hurt
And sad
A moment from being mind-drunk
Paralyzed
And mad
Angry at how life got me
How it treated me for show
I only need a moment
To keep going
To keep afloat

A weaver of light
Calls to the stars
Taking their essence one by one.
Cradling them,
She braids them to yarn,
Offering it to only the royal ones.
Listing by name
The gifts are each set
Bound to the lives of most fit.
But if they blink out,
Each royals’ dress,
Their life will forever be forfeit.

There is beauty in parallel horizons, especially when they kiss over the calm, tranquil waters meeting the moon.

Even though I have no more love left for you,
You invade, barrelling in, creating your own
Through you, I learn I can love again
That my heart has no limit
That I can grow fonder each and every day
If treated right

Trail my worry
Follow my angst
So my fears won’t seize you
Understand my fury
Recognize my hate
So my loathe won’t pursue
Grasp my love
Devour my heart
So I will never escape
Steal my memories
Recollect my lore
Don’t make my same mistakes

Please reflect on my end
And not my beginning
When I pass into the unknown.
See how far I’ve come
And where to I am going,
Not where my stories were once told.

To disconnect is to relate
At least to me
Far off from a touch of reality
Is where my mind needs to be

Discord splits and digs deeper
until it takes root.
The family tree grows
to nurse rotten fruit.
Nothing but fake smiles.
Members hidden in disguise.
No one truly happy
Hearts decaying with flies.

Animate me
Bring me to life
Open my curtains
Let in some light
Release me from darkness
From deep dark despair
Lessen depression
Show me you’re there

Take me to places I’ve always needed to go
Stand with me against anyone who’s foe
Welcome my heart and understand all my needs
Believe in me, love for me, cherish me, please
