A place to show my work
Paths yet to travel, dreams yet to unfold,
Open hearts and minds, embracing stories untold.
Seeking the spark where hope intertwines,
Stepping forward, where the light shines.
Infinite chances dance in the air,
Believe in the magic, let go of despair.
Inviting tomorrow with a sense of wonder,
Life’s beautiful journey, ready to ponder.
In every moment, a choice to explore,
Take a breath, for the world offers more.
Yield not to doubt, let your spirit soar.
Rescue me from all that hinders me,
From shadows that weigh heavy on my soul,
Cut through the thorns that bind so viciously,
To find the path that leads me to be whole.
Lift me above the tides of doubt and fear,
Where whispers of despair no longer reign,
In the light of hope, let my heart draw near,
To find the strength to rise beyond the pain.
Let the winds of change blow fiercely, unrestrained,
And shake the chains that keep my spirit down,
In the dawn of clarity, I’ve obtained,
The courage to reclaim my lost renown.
For in my heart, I’ll find a way to see,
The beauty in the struggle, and to be free.
Try not to be vain,
It will get you nowhere,
A heart wrapped in mirrors,
Reflecting only despair.
In the glow of false beauty,
You may dance, you may shine,
But in the silence of shadows,
You’ll find no hand to entwine.
With each boastful echo,
You build walls made of pride,
Cutting ties with the true ones,
Leaving love cast aside.
So cherish the simple,
Valleys deep and wide,
For in humility’s embrace,
True joy cannot hide.
Seek not the fleeting glory,
Let kindness be your guide,
In a world that’s ever-changing,
It’s love that will abide.
Make sure your grip is tight.
Don’t let go, for you don’t know what lies below.
Beneath the shadows, secrets loom,
A world unseen, where echoes bloom.
With every heartbeat, a whisper calls,
Of hidden depths and ancient walls.
Thread carefully, let caution steer,
For in the darkness, doubt may leer.
The winds may howl, the tides may shift,
Yet in your hands, you hold the gift.
A chance to soar, a chance to fall,
But fear not the plunge, just heed the call.
So take a breath, embrace the sky,
With every moment, let your spirit fly.
Hold on tight, the journey’s begun,
With dreams as your compass, you’ll find the sun.
You don’t need fists to cast your chains,
For words can echo and leave deep stains.
Actions can wound without a fight,
While shadows linger, stealing light.
No need for physical to leave a scar,
Silent harm can reach so far.
In gentle whispers, pain can lie,
With every word, a soul can sigh.
I have been on trial for the last couple of months
Trying my hardest to get through the pain
But with each new day, something new comes my way,
Each struggle feels heavy, like a weight on my brain.
I search for the light through the dark and the rain,
Holding on to hope, though it’s hard to explain.
Some days are bright, and I smile with ease,
Other days I falter, brought down to my knees.
But I keep on dreaming, and I won’t lose my fight,
For every new dawn brings a chance to feel right.
Step by step, I’ll find my own way,
Through trials and troubles, I’ll learn to be okay.
All I want to do is to be free
To be me
But who am I?
I have many, I have let in their ideas,
But is that me or is that them?
Voices echo, whispers collide,
Searching for truth I try to confide.
Layers of self in the mirror’s embrace,
Finding my heart in this tangled space.
I am finished living this way,
In shadows where I sway.
Change feels heavy, like a stone,
I stand still, lost and alone.
I don’t know what to do,
Or how to find a path that’s new.
Fear wraps tight, like a chain,
Paralyzed by hope and pain.
But somewhere deep inside,
A whisper calls, a wish, a guide.
Though change is hard, I’ll find the light,
And step forward, into the fight.

In hopes of lifting her spirits,
For she had been feeling down,
And her friends wanted to cheer her up.
