99/San Diego, California, US Words are my tools, spellcheck is my savior. I've always been a writer, but haven't shared my creative poetry before. Better late than never I think. My themes are healing, growing, learning, listening, curiosity, adventure and following a unique path.
Your essence is a beauty that feeds the souls of others As important as any one, any group, any power More than skin and bones, more than words and actions A whole being with unexplored possibilities Unstoppable strength Unknown growth What will you do with that essence In each day of your life

Each Day Of Your Life
When that sliver of daybreak tugs at your eyes Wake up to unexplored possibilities Stretch your body in gratitude Embrace the gift of a new day Open your heart to a compassionate view Welcome the sun as she rises for you Ground into this world and listen for what you need There is work to be done In the streets and in your own heart Start from the root

Wake Up
It's not that you have to be perfect and brand new You aren't a smart phone It's not that you have to be loved by everyone You don't exist on a pedestal It's not that you need to be shiny and look good You aren't a diamond ring It's not that you need to be smooth and spotless You aren't glass It's just that you need to love yourself as much as you love those things.

You Just Need To...
Today, I hope you realize how much you are loved And it sets off a spark inside of you that burns brighter each minute A spark that turns into a fiery warmth from the inside out to warm your hands and melt your pain into a wax candle of memories A fiery warmth that never goes out Not even when floodwaters rise to your chest Today, I hope you realize how much you are loved.

A Spark
Dark nights, dark days, a broken heart stuck in bleak flurries of heat and muck Grief pinches my throat, binds my wrists, pelts me with memories and what if's. My eyes are glazed with blurry tears, my mind torn apart by deathly fears. I cry and I cry and I cry

Death
I tried forgiveness Not to let them off the hook But to taste sweetness again I learned to create water To put out that angry fire When it returns, compassion dances in my dreams A lightness to comfort my hungry heart

Release
Practice accountability so I can Take control of my story and Visualize what I need to Build a discipline of conscious decisions that Value the resource rich life of Leaning into what matters most of all Includes stretching myself in sticky situations to Create healthy relationships with boundaries that Support each individual and forming stronger bonds so when I am Aware of the lack I can be Grateful for the abundance.

Accountable
Unleash your magic and know that deep in your core is a wild one that cannot be tamed Start a fire Let yourself boil over, cry, scream, vent, speak up, yell, raise your voice When you are hoarse and worn out, whisper sweetly into your own ears and let love take over Be outraged Feel your fear, anger, sadness, pain, hate, confusion, apathy and frustration When it has reached levels too high to carry in your own hands, lay your body to rest Sleep until you can wake feeling only joy, hope, love and peace Be curious, kind, compassionate, weird, non conforming, Make your bed, your own shape, your own choices This is your life, your journey You belong to no man or woman, no parent, no child You are born of sunlight and dirt, yin and yang

Free Self
Write When that feeling arrives bursting through my door without knocking, when it fills my stomach with dread Write how it feels: tense, tightening muscles, nausea, intense, shaky, anxious Write where I feel it: in my stomach, climbing up my lungs, around my heart, up into my throat, tears preparing to run Write what it brings: sadness, memories, grief, trauma Allow it to be here, allow it to leave, Don't allow it to leave more scars Write until it goes away

Write It
We are in control of what we grow In our heart, mind and life What do we want to cultivate? We are all capable, all lovable Broken or scarred Trampled or traumatized We can mend those breaks Strengthen our life force Choose to heal How can we grow from our heart space?
