poetry helps me decipher / who / i / am
sleepless nights and days are only the beginning of my worries, growing like a tree; flourishing anxiety intertwines with my life, enveloping me, suffocating me, overlapping each word movement thought in my life.

worrisome
her life was a river her tears were the rain and every time a storm arrived, the flooding would drown her in pain

precipitation
I carry the sky in one hand The weight, it burns But still I stand. Late Evening, and all the cities are hushed But I am awake For we cannot lie crushed. A struggle, A shout, A whisper, A plea, But why bother to beg? I shall not be set free. When the dawn breaks, I continue to weaken With my ever-strong hope; My bad fate will be beaten. Until the day comes When I have gained freedom I carry the sky During this endless season.

Becoming Atlas
do not fight the glorious rise of the Sun. embrace the sudden warmth on your back gently scaring away The Bitter and The Cold. do not oppose the shining beams of noon. Simply let the white light touch you. do not ignore the Sunset of the Evening. accept the dancing colors, each falling with the gleaming sphere of golden Memories. the sun has collapsed and the chilled night has risen, dominating the Western sky. sterling shimmers line the night as the crisp, cool air bites through your skin. a dim, lustrous light hits your face while the calming hum of the breeze prevents your awakening. mist covers the empty meadow as a rising Sun is suddenly embraced.

Dawn to Dusk
A journey will take him Far Far into the night, And the crisp, cool, Delicate air Will only help guide him. Courageous souls behind his back, Always protecting him, Threatening those who wish Nothing but the worst. Beady eyes in the trees Swiftly moving in unison With his fragile bare feet, Do not stop until it is time. Even when the wind blows harshly, The followers will not stop For their leader. Slowly, he whispers Do not follow me. You’ll never make it But the followers stand, Steadfast and loyal, Secretly guarding The leader.

The Leader
I hear a slight sound rain beautifully taps on my window a chorus of droplets slowly whispering a lullaby in my ear. the whistle of the wind; a harmony, persuading you into dreams far beyond your imagination. rain on your neck, a cool feeling of freedom and happiness. silently falling onto your cheek, gently releasing you from your never-ending sleep. the rain is beauteous. do not shout angrily at the cold drops let them reward you with peace and prosperity. as it abruptly stops, your memories fade away, unnoticed, and the wonderful sun greets you.
