Happy New Year
Ashly Kocher Jan 2021
I’m going to sit back and take it all in
What a year for all of us this has been
The highs
The lows
The ups
The downs
But, here we are with two feet on the ground
For this is the last day of this year
I will spend it giving cheer
Even though the times are still rough
We can get through anything if we pray hard enough
For me, today, I will reflect on everything that has helped me grow
2020, wasn’t the greatest, but I’ve learned a lot  
I plan on bettering myself
Give my mind a break
Continue on this journey of life
Grow within my experiences
Exceed my expectations
Learn, learn , learn
I’m not saying goodbye to 2020
But rather say “ Thank You”
Sounds crazy but it has changed me for the better
I look forward to 2021
Welcome in a clean slate for myself
Fresh start and a new beginning with an open mind
Thank you 2020, even though it’s been a rollercoaster ride
2021, please be a better, happier, year... For all

Holding the Future
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
What does the future hold
Grab ahold of time and rewind
Maybe fast forward to simpler times
Never knowing the unknown
May be scary to find
But it’s never to late to focus and wait
Reimagining how far you have come and grown
Like flipping through a scrapbook of memories that you hold
Explains to your younger self this is your story to tell
Ups and downs, valleys and peaks, rivers and oceans deep
We all have layers to our own lives but these layers within ourselves make up our chapters to our storybook through our eyes...

Waterfalls Edge
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
I stand at the edge of a waterfall
Watch the water glide down and cascade away
I close my eyes, imagining my pain floating away
Just like the waterfall, I do too release the burden I carry everyday
Allowing the calming sounds of nature around me, soothe my soul and relax my mind, taking me back in time
A time of simplicity, love and peace
A time of happiness within me
Wounds don’t define me
Scars tell my story
Even if the scars are invisible
My heart still feels pain
I stand at the edge of a waterfall
Letting my pain, fall over the edge, simply floating away...
Dec 2020 · 42
Power
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
For I feel the power
In

Birds Flying High
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
I stand outside
Wondering why
These massive amounts of birds are flying by
Suddenly realize, to my surprise
It was to tell me to relax and breath from with inside
As I listen to their sounds floating across the sky

Glowing Heart
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
Her heart glows giving off light in the middle of a dark wooded forest. Shining her love throughout the land. Magically portraying her abilities for all the creatures to see. Crossing over a bridge high above the water, she feels the calmness in her soul as she feels a brush upon her shoulder. A warm sensation fills her heart as she connects to the other side. Grasping a crystal she find in her pocket, giving her clarity and sense of relief. She peers into the water, thinking to see her own reflection, but to her surprise, a shadowy figure floats above the water. A blurred image dances with the water running slowly down its path. Just like skipping rocks, making ripple effects, then slowly disappearing. Trying to capture a picture to store in my memory bank, but it’s too late, it’s gone. No matter what I will have a mental picture in my mind of the day I felt relaxed, stress free, centered and connected. All because my heart glows bright and guides me to where I need to be. Helping me learn and grow of these abilities that have always been apart of me.

Empty Christmas
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
As so many are blessed with their bundles of joy, or their happy announcements of expecting, I am reflecting on journey over the past several months. I have been blessed through an emotional time in my life. Something I never thought would happen for my husband and I, finally did, but ended up with sadness. This should be our first Christmas with “our little one” yet the unbearable pain knowing that we don’t have it is indescribable. As I am overjoyed for all of those with their little ones or their expecting announcements, I can’t help but feel jealousy and sadness.
If I can take anything from our situation, this is what I personally have learned...
I am blessed. We are blessed. Even under the circumstances. It is hard, frustrating and leaves us feeling empty, but a miracle did happen. That’s the positive within the negative. You’ll always be in our hearts and even though you never made it here, you are always with us.
Merry Christmas 💜

Deep Breath

Take a deep breath in  
Exhale it out
Release all the worries and doubt
Close my eyes
Center myself
Cleaning all the negative energy out
Think happy thoughts
Dance among the stars
Follow the moonlight path
Your journey will take far
If you dare to dream
Your wishes will come true
Just take a deep breath in
Exhale it out
Watch your life begin to turnaround

Let The Water Heal

Emotional Rollercoaster
Ashly Kocher Dec 2020
I have a lot of feelings I am working through, I wanted to be honest with you. If I didn’t have a miscarriage back in May, I would be holding my baby today. Finally having a family with Brent, making you an Aunt. I’m sorry it ended in such a horrible way. I feel a disconnect in my heart, I need to find me again, but that’s the hard part. I know in my heart, that I am ok, but this emotional rollercoaster haunts me everyday. I don’t talk about it much, I hide how I feel, but you are the one person that I can be truthful too. It *****, it rough, I feel worthless at times, but I’m trying to be positive as much as I can. I am sorry again but I want to thank you for ALWAYS being there for me and us.
I wrote this for someone who is very close to me. Pouring out my emotions is hard, but she is one person that I can be completely open and honey with.
