29/M Poems about finding light in the darkness, hope from fear / https://iandunnwriting.com
No matter what your problem No matter how bad it seems Know that if you ask I will sit and listen Even if you just want to talk Maybe about something silly If you need someone I will sit and listen Maybe you want to ramble on about something in life you love I may not understand it but I will sit and listen I will make the time I will work to focus You are important to me So I will sit and listen

Sit and Listen
Includes: Somewhere warm to hide under during a storm Someone to love when times are tough Something soft to cuddle when it's hard Some reason to keep going even when it's rough Some good friends to remind you that you matter Some good times for which to hope and pray Someone to hold you while you cry and say “Dry your tears. It's gonna be okay.”

Human Repair Kit
Among the changing leaves The pumpkins, the corn, the scarecrows Something different came along something we didn't understand They frightened us, these new things They were bizarre, weird, creepy To cope with this, we made a label We called them "monsters" In our fear of the strange We couldn't see the obvious That what we thought were monsters were just people who were different So embrace the strange Because they're not monsters They're just different And different doesn't have to be scary

Embrace the Strange
I try to get in I try to push past the walls keeping me stuck in the supporting cast I smile and nod I try to talk But I know I don't belong Eventually, away I'll walk I want to try I want to fit in But what's natural to others only leaves me with questions I'm stuck on the outside A stranger among friends I don't know when this feeling stops I don't know if it ever ends So I'll keep walking and hum my own song dreaming of that place where I can belong

Stuck on the Outside
Life didn't go as planned Though you thought it all in hand Even though your plans fell through There's nothing wrong with you It's not because of the way you look Nor because of the abuse you took You might have a different point of view But there's nothing wrong with you It's not because your voice is strange You certainly don't need to change Everything is my favorite part about you So you know there's nothing wrong with you No matter how much life knocks you down Get back up and keep reaching for that crown It's up to you to see your journey through Because there's nothing wrong with you

Nothing Wrong With You
Lost in the dark it feels like no one's there But there's always someone Someone who cares It's okay not to fit in This just isn't your place When in doubt, look inside And you'll find a smiling face Somewhere out there You'll find a reason to keep going To open your eyes and see the sun and that the future before you is glowing So look to the rising sun You are as bright as the sky It's time to begin your journey Don't be afraid; spread your wings and fly

Words of Hope
It happens again and again I heard the beauty you made And now I have to speak louder Making my voice heard over yours Thinking, knowing that my words will be held up to yours even if others aren't doing it I still am, I hear how my words sound This doesn't sound right This doesn't flow right This doesn't feel right And now, once again, I'm in that hole It isn't your fault, it's mine I put myself there every time Now I have to climb up, struggling to get free to find what I know is me But it isn't right yet And I don't know if it ever will be But I have to keep climbing To get out of the hole I dig Because I hate it down there And I want to be free

The Hole I Dig
It's hard to think about tomorrow When we're so busy surviving today But no matter how bad things get It's gonna be okay Even though we're all suffering and although friends are far away We're still sticking together So it's gonna be okay The world outside looks so bleak But this night isn't going to stay This is only the dark before the dawn It's gonna be okay Things are going to get better soon Because we'll all work to make them that way United, we can do anything So I know it's gonna be okay

It's Gonna Be Okay
The waves get higher crashing all around me I lost sight of the port amidst the raging sea I'm clinging tightly My hands have grown sore Rain pelts the boat In unending downpour I don't know where to go All I can do is guess and hope Longing for some release To do more than just cope But there's no end to this storm No harbor or port of safety But I'm going to keep going I won't let it take me I can still see the sun Though sometimes it may hide That flicker of light in the darkness Tells me that I can survive

Lost in the Storm
It's been a long journey and though we don't know where it ends We're almost there I can feel it It's been a difficult journey Those who could walk, walked Those who couldn't walk, we carried But we couldn't carry everyone It's been a strange journey Different than anything we've faced before We mustn't forget all that we've learned We mustn't forget all that we've lost It's been a tiring journey The end is still far away But if we walk together I know we'll make it
