I am a goddess I am strong I am powerful I will knock the wind out of you Make you beg for air I will bring you to your knees Pray before you enter the chapel Of my body I am a palace And you should consider it an honor To enter into my halls I am made of light and fire Do not forget that I will blaze and burn I cannot be quenched I am an untouched treasure Pure and rare Do not disgrace me Or discard me I am a goddess And I refuse to be treated Like anything Less
You're the trickle of fear in my sea of doubt You're the limp in the leg that once wasn't healed You're the cool in the breeze that makes me shiver What you are kills me without a sound You roar and scream As I pay no attention Which doesn't mean What you say bounces off of my skin It doesn't It stings and slashes deep But what can I do, to make you stop? Nothing
I don't write for pity, or attention or friends. I write for myself, I write instead of bleeding. My poems are personal, Not written for others. I share them because I want to touch someone. Maybe we can all stop being alone.
He empowers me Has me feeling I can conquer anything Do I love him? No, But a certain kind of respect And a clear sign of acknowledgment Must be given When he speaks And when he listens.
My soul will sail away And let the winds From my troubling yesterdays Fill its tattered sails And carry it wayward Bound for a better future
Although the waves will batter And the thunder will crash I know my vessel will reach harbor Surviving to set sail yet again When I find my soul restless Longing for the next journey
