Sometimes I Wonder.
What kind of place
The world would be
If we all said
What was really
On our minds.
Probably painful at first
But better in the long run

Let's Go Dancing.
The lights are moving
The music is flowing
Nobody knows who you are
Dancing the night away
Meeting fun people
Or not even talking to one
In the moment you're free
Peaceful and in bliss
Problems all kicked out the door
Music is high
Worries are low
Love this feeling more and more

An Ode To...
All of the memories
My mind has forgotten
Over time
To the moments
Spent with people
Who at one time made me happy
The experiences I've had
Traveling for no reason
And traveling with a purpose
Any and every mistake
That held me back for so long
In my own mind
For now I'm able to be
More level-headed
And analytical
Instead of always
Diving in head first
Or sometimes feet first
...To the growth I've encountered
And to the growth ahead
Because after all...
Whether I do
Or whether I don't
My path will continue moving forward.

Flex That Creativity.
When creativity escapes you
Remember it is a muscle
Atrophy occurs without use
But it can be recovered with care

Dinner Or Dessert Plate?
From the depths of my heart
I'm trying to get you to see
That what makes your brain go numb
Is exactly what excites me
Let me take it off your plate
I truly do not mind
It's one less thing for you to do
And you can up your grind

All That Effort.
So much more
Could be accomplished
If they were simply done
Instead of only thinking
Of what all needs to be done

Wading Through Memories of the Past.
Exploring through
The depths of the past
As one does from time to time
Previously this would lead
To anger or sadness
Depending on what was being remembered
This time it
Lead me
To a happier place
Happy to be in
This phase
Of my life
Working towards my goals
Living in a wonderful and safe place
Rediscovering myself
And it's motivating me
To be my best self
And work harder to change my life for the better

Life Takes A Turn.
Before being at home
Meant facing the soul-crushing
Busload of emotions
Headed directly towards me at full speed
Resulting in avoiding home
Only to sleep, eat, get ready
And repeat
To keep the bus at bay
Avoid home
Where I was often made to stay
Away from people
Life, new friends, and experiences
But as with all things
Life takes a turn
Winding its way to nowhere
Yet always ending up somewhere
Before I'd avoid home
To avoid me, but now
I avoid going out
To avoid people
Creating my own peace in solitude
Calming my inner turmoil
People-ing enough for a lifetime
Has all come to play
Very thankful I am
For being in this place today
Looking forward to the calm
That's at the beginning and end of each day

Times Do Change.
You have a past
You also have a future
What was in your past
Does not have to be a part of your future

Savasana? Don't Know Her.
Oh savasana. A necessity...
But one that evades me
Longer than three minutes laying down?
Aaaand I'm asleep
My mind runs constantly
Flowing with thoughts and ideas
Yes, it's understood
This is the point
To use these moments
As a learning tool
On the path to become
Mentally stronger and aware
But for now
I will write
For ten ideas arrive
And by the time savasana is over
There will maybe be three
That get written down

My Body, My Mind.
Sitting in a moment of relaxation
My mind is quiet
Body is warm
Covered in the lightest layer of sweat
A nice pocket of air
Envelopes my body
And my mind rejoices
In a quiet and subtle manner
With the body going
From warm to perfectly cool
Seems to light flame within me
Making me feel alive
More than I have felt
In the longest time
For so long I was lost but now
In this moment
I feel the most whole I have felt
For the longest time
As I've reconnected
With a long lost friend

Reconnecting With Myself.
While the world was separated and isolating
I became that way with myself
My body more specifically
The rest was so greatly needed
That part I feel gratitude for
But losing sight of this physical connection
Was its own form of helplessness
I hope not to experience
Ever again.
Making the time
To come back
To my physical home
Has given my soul
The gentlest, warmest embrace
That I didn't realize it needed

Free Falling Tower of Life.
A constant limbo
Is what my life has become
From a princess safe only in a tower
To life-changing moments of beautiful and free falling chaos
I want to feel the chaos freely
But the safety of the tower beckons
In any world
Could I possibly have both?

Background Noise.
Some type of video.
Music.
A podcast.
Occasionally
More than
One...
Always had
To have
Something
In the background
For the
Longest time:
Silence.
Was.
Suffering.
But now
I need it
To hear the
Natural sounds
Of my surroundings
To come to
Maybe in the silence
Will help me find exactly
What I'm looking for

There's No Use.
There's no use in lamenting
Over those that threw you to the wayside
At the first sign of turmoil
Really it's better
To know this early on instead of
When the going really gets tough
So instead of longing
For what no longer is
Be glad to know
The floor fell from beneath you
From the ground floor
Instead of any higher up

Ready, Set, Go.
My heart is full
I'll get what I need
Felt like a turtle
Now I'm ready for full speed
Aware this requires patience
With sprinkles of time
But the only place from here is up
And I'm ready to fly

Oftentimes our cage
Is created by
