There exists a place on earth
Where one can find true peace
A place away from stress and pain
A place where all of it will cease

For some, it's near the ocean
That a calm can always be found
The waves carry all the stress away
With that familiar relaxing sound

The coolness of the water,
And the warmth of sunny rays,
It doesn't take very long at all
Before the world melts away

For others it's the forest
That sets their mind at ease
The world feels completely still
When you're surrounded by tall trees

The air somehow feels calmer
It smells remarkably fresh
Some birds tweet in the distance
And your thoughts again can mesh

So often we get caught up
In the worries of the day
We forget to worry about ourselves
And take some time away

So whether you go alone
Or with someone you hold dear
Make sure to find the time you need
To make your head feel clear
I have had such horrible writers block for a few months now. Every time I tried to sit down to write a poem, I couldn't come up with any inspiration. Then when I finally did, I couldn't put them into the right words. The result was confusing poems that I didn't really feel that proud of.
Happy to say that after some much needed time away, the poem came to me and I am proud of it. Starting the new year back on track with some relaxation and some poetry. Hope you all enjoyed it, and can find time to relax and clear your heads in the near future :) <3

I remember taking that chance,
the chance that has changed the past few years of my life.
The chance that if i wouldn't have taken, I would've never met the love of my teens.
Some say I should't have taken it.
They said you were toxic for me.
But they don't understand why i took a chance on you.
They didn't see your tears on that sunday night during the breakdown,
when you were so vulnerable and you came to me.
They didn't see me when I was laying on the floor,
screaming about ending it all, sobbing into your chest.
They didn't see our connection.
If i had the choice I would take the chance again.
I would take the chance of experience our teenage love just one more time,
mostly, because this time i wouldn't take the chance of letting you end it all.
I wouldn't go on vacation and leave you alone to cry by yourself on that awful night .
If i had another chance i would stop you,
so I wouldn't have to finish high school without my true love.
I would take the chance so i could quit blaming myself.
Just so i could lay in your arms, once again.

Maybe,
everything they tell you Sunday Mornings is wrong,
Maybe,
they want you to think there is a place after Earth
so that you won't do your self improvements and sinning and exploring while on this planet,
maybe,
they're trying to get you to save up your energy for Heaven.
They're lying.
My view is,
you should do your sinning and exploring while on this planet.
Because maybe just maybe,
Heaven is right here on earth.
Heaven is your favorite song and all of your passion.
Heaven is right here,
grasp it while you can,
and never let it go.

Everyday,
I search through faces in memory,
only to find, that you are still not there.
You; the one who sees me for not who, but what I truly am.
a broken soul.

I think it's time I up and leave. Packed my bags, collected pay. Time to push to a new day. A brand new place is all I seek. A different view is what I need. Find my self and start a new.

I'll sure miss you.
My last resort, I'll wait a month.

Locked away in my room I stay,
All day, with a laptop resting upon my chest.
Writing poetry I never thought would be read.

Drinking herbal tea,
trying to hold onto my sanity.
Hoping no one knocks at the door,
to finally get a glimpse of me.

No one needs to witness me,
while my brain thinks of scenarios,
that most likely will never occur.


I'm just dreaming of the day,
when i will no longer be afraid of people knowing the real me.

When i can publish my works,
and drink my tea in a cute little coffee shop,
in downtown NYC.

Dreaming of a day,
when i can finally come out of "hiding".
