Chapters of Self

I'm made of all;

The books I've ever read

Poems I've ever written

Faces who have smiled at me

Hugs that have wrapped around me

Caresses that have graced my inner thigh

Countries & continents my feet have touched

The lovers as we simultaneously reach ecstasy within

Lonely nights shedding tear drops

Nights gazing black skies moon & stars

Children falling asleep to my heartbeat

Animals whose soul was found through reflective eye stares

Conversations spoken in French, Spanish, Italian, Xhosa, Afrikaans, Norwegian, German

Years of ****** cognitive-, dialectical-, art-, drama-, music-, mindfulness-, trauma-, psychiatry-; therapies

The drinks & drugs & mind altering substances dispersing my mind

In all I'm made of;

Love

Lust

Greed

Fear

Joy

Freedom

Longing

Dreams

Despair

Sadness

Anger

Frustrations

Happiness

Anxieties

Insecurities....

 

In all I'm made of;

 

A soul; securely contained within a body of battled scars;

over;

pain & triumphs, losses & gains, rejections & acceptances, dishonours & accolades...

 

With the hope; she too, can live life through.
