✦ "the writer's crisis" ✦ Sometimes I wonder who I’d be without my pen without my time all alone eyes low busy describing etching my interpretation of every moment, turned memory— because that’s the irony I describe my past my memories, fleeting emotions I’m remembering in present time that fades to “past” every moment I review, reflect— the words I write are never truly what define me because they, like my pain, are so very far behind me. So who am I without my pen? Who am I without my pain? I fear the answer will force me to identify in unfamiliar ways. ~~ #halcyonpoetry #poemaday #poetsofinstagram #poetryforanxiety #shadowworker #innerhealingpoetry #spiritguides #poeticinsights #michiganpoet #sacredart #innerhealing #channeledpoetry #poemsofig #writingcommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CGSZVX8n3tT/?igshid=7y2zectbk955

Someone like me
Let me tell you who i am
Sitting on a hill
A city a on a hill
A light on a hill
Sitting on a mountain
A rock of the mountain
A piece of the mountain
Sitting in a chair
A student
A teacher
Sitting in a field
A spec of the earth
A creation formed to crawl but never walk
I stand up
If no one ever says
Let me tell you who I’m
Would it be discovered
That’s the point
Looked over
The way you breathe speaks
Volumes all on its own
The way you wake up
The way you go to bed
The way you stay awake
When everyone is asleep
The way you greet a stranger
The way you see your reflection
The way you dedicate your time
The way
The way
You are
Dead
Or
Alive
I’m awake
Making steps to take
Simplicity at its
Purist state
Something that can’t be faked
Recreated
Remade
Redone
Or
Re saved
Let me tell you
You’ve got a light
You’ve got a voice
You’ve got a choice
Did you
Know
Every little decision is a stepping stone
To clarity
Can you bare the weight of reality
It’s not about all you know
All you can do
All the talent to be used
In you
To be set as a sign of wonder
A sign pointing towards the purist
Form of light
That exceeds dates
Times
And
Calculations
Let me tell you who I am
Revealed at a time that is to be expected
Take away the years on the time
Line you’ve used to track me
Instead put in its place perfected
Here I was working out in stress
Here I was working out in fear
Here I was working out in issues that
Have for some time been here
Here I was someone
Here I was trying to figure
Out
Someone like me
Seen yet unseen

Another Day
It’s morning, I see
eyes, make up,
and a shadow
whispering,
shaking bells
of disbelief
Breaking dreams,
I hesitate because
I do not
want to
give it up
But the longer
I wait I know
there will not
be a reason
Tell me something
I don’t know, what
keeps us together
breaking the seal
before our passing
The words that we
keep between us
gouging walls
that squeeze us…
please take my hand
around the corner

Poetry has saved me so many times! Just cranking out word after word of emotions as tears spilled from my eyes onto my cheeks to the floor where I couldn't stop sobbing. As if the whole world were on my shoulders. Ya, feel me? Like this never-ending defeat or need to change those who will never understand true power is in love, compassion, tolerance acceptance, and our ability to adapt. ♥🌈✌AKC©12/29/20#poetrycommunityofig #poetrypassion #michiganauthor #michigangirl #michiganpoets #Readunknownauthors #readindie #readthis #Readrealwriters #readwriteunite #readpoetryeverydamnday #thisismetrying #believeinyourself #keepmotivating #passionateartist #poetrypassions #poeticoutlaws #aimhigh #Cadillacmichigan #traversecitymichigan #wordsaremysuperpower https://www.instagram.com/p/CJXzH4kBoyk/?igshid=1wwvhnpp3agf5
