Graceful
Details imprinted,
Filling spaces with light,
Sparkling jewels of thought dress words,
Adding depth and warmth to ideas,
Crafting moments into art,
Inviting the heart to see more.

Embracing Shadows
In shadows where the silence falls,
A heart feels heavy with despair.
How can you be so thankless,
When love surrounds your weary soul?
Each gesture lost in empty space,
Yet hope lingers in whispered dreams.
Kindness blooms in quiet corners,
With patience woven through the days,
Let gratitude light your path bright,
Embrace the warmth of what still is.

Fueled by Determination
I need the drive to enrich my life,
To seek out the joy amidst the strife.
With every step, I’ll rise and grow,
Embracing the challenges, letting them flow.
I need to dodge the obstacles, fierce and tall,
With courage in heart, Iāll conquer them all.
Each hurdle I face, a lesson to learn,
A fire in my spirit, forever will burn.
The path may be winding, the journey unclear,
But with hope as my compass, Iāll move without fear.
For every setback is merely a chance,
A rhythm in life, a beautiful dance.
So I’ll forge ahead, with dreams in my sight,
With strength as my armor, I’ll fight for the light.
In the tapestry woven with colors so bright,
I need the driveāfor it fuels my flight.
Quiet Moments
Lunchtime comes around
Joy spreads through me as I know
Peace will come to me
I stay in while others roam.
Time for some quiet I crave.

Uncertain Goodbyes
Is it time,
to say goodbye?
Will this feeling go away if I do,
Or am I trying to pull away like before?
I need a sign to know.
I don’t want to damage
something by rash decisions.
Maybe I should talk to them
Would they understand?

Clarity Amidst Chaos
Overwhelming feeling has begun.
where to start is the question.
so many things to get done,
with each new thing
just amplifies the feeling.
A whirlwind of thoughts collide,
like storm clouds gathering,
each task a thunderclap,
each worry a flash of lightning,
illuminating the chaos
but leaving no clarity in its wake.
I grasp for one thread,
but it slips through my fingers,
caught in the chaos,
lost in the static,
and still, the clock ticks on,
demanding attention,
a relentless metronome of urgency.
Breathe.
A reminder whispered softly,
like a breeze cutting through the noise,
offering a moment, a pause,
to gather scattered pieces,
to sift through the overwhelm
and find the first step,
the one that starts the path ahead.
But where to start?
The question lingers,
dancing on the edge of resolve,
each moment a flicker of possibility,
waiting for the courage
to take that first step
into the unknown yet intimate.
So, I sit with it,
the weight, the pressure,
the promise of progress,
and with each heartbeat,
a quiet determination forms,
no longer drowning,
but swimming towards the surface.

Quiet No More
Once upon a time
There was quiet at work
Where people got along
And no shouts could be heard
Things are now different.
Where once there was peace,
Now, there is chaos
Loud disagreements are the norm.
Tension builds in the air
No way to escape
No one to help to ease
Away the tension
Oh, how I miss the good old days
And often dream and hope that they will return
But alas it does not look like
That will happen anytime soon.

Poem- Anxiety
My heart races, my palms sweat,
As I enter the crowded room.
My mind is filled with worry and regret,
As I search for a place to resume.
The fear of judgment weighs me down,
As I try to blend in with the crowd.
I feel like a stranger in my own town,
As I struggle to speak out loud.
The eyes upon me feel like a spotlight,
Exposing every flaw and mistake.
I wish I could disappear from sight,
And hide away from all the fake.
But I know I must face my fears,
And push through the discomfort and pain.
For only then will I truly appear,
And break free from the social anxiety chain.
