Last Page

Peace is what is left on my last page. For there is no space left in me for anything else, No other intention than an offering of kindness, Knowing and understanding the human condition Aware of the rise and fall of chapters in our lives, Thankful, ever thankful, for the chance to be at all.Continue reading “Last Page”

The Unleashing

In our growth, there is an unleashing Unexpected, from the depths of our personal vaults A release of emotions stored beneath years of forbearance Only accessible when we are truly heard and seen. We may have endured the unthinkable And still maintained an air of quiet composure Knowing that to speak of our layers ofContinue reading “The Unleashing”

In our emptiness, we make room for illumination Tending to our wounds before the truth sets in Yearning for the ability to feel the missing pieces While accepting the reliefContinue reading “Numb”
