Feet hurting but it will all be worth it
Telling white lies because I refuse to forfeit
Not ashamed of what I've done, we're all imperfect
Saving up cash for my family so they can be sorted
I hope this rhyme will be easy for you to interpret
Started being selfish because I deserve it

Short and simple :]

I dream of shallow waters and dancing lights surrounded by the moonlight
It's gleaming light reminds me that I'm not alone
Walking through the darkness hand and hand with hope
I see faith looking down upon me from the stars
With an unbiased eye they look at my scars
Accepting me for who I am and the world I am from

I also wrote this poem in July when I was healing. Throughout the process of coming to terms with my emotions. I still kept writing even though I was having a hard time.

Gentle whispers traveling in the wind, singing the same song
Fears fading into dust and time is fleeting
Tears are being wiped away and the pain still remains
Trying to patch up old wounds, she cries throughout the night
Wiping her eyes she sheds more tears from deeper emotions
Eyes red from wiping, she can finally rest in peace

This poem is about me saying goodbye to the old me. I wrote this in July to start anew.

Secretly achieving my dreams
How I Envision myself since I was sixteen
Always imagined I would be a queen
But that's not what reality had in store for me
Working as a trainee
Nine to five daily
Never needing anyone to save me
Lunch break at three
Nothing in this world is free
That I can guarantee

Hope you enjoy reading this piece ☆

At peace with my demons
Free from temptations
Finally awakened
Never forsaken by the God that created me

Thinking about what the future holds for me
Healthy as I can be
Manifesting who I aspire to be

Just short and simple ♡

The cold surrounds me

Sleeping alone in the cold without warmth by my side

The cold surrounds me

The space to my right, cold and empty

The cold surrounds me

Moving closer to the space on my right and leaving another cold gap to my left

The cold surrounds me

Thinking about the warmth that could one day fill that space

The warmth smothers me

Those thoughts fade away as I'm reminded of the cold that awaits me

The cold surrounds me

My heart being just as cold, guarded with walls knowing that warmth will never have me

The cold surrounds me again

Alone I remained and always been, as I shuddered in the cold

The cold forever surrounds me

I yearned for warmth but could never attain it for I was meant to be alone

I surrendered to the cold

This piece contains my true feelings for winter. Winter is my favorite season. Although,  I'm happy, pain always seems to follow behind. Embrace your pain and don't ignore it. -Nisha
