Poems
Jan 2011
Found
I so desperately crawl
Somewhere safe
Where I can rest
This pain I felt in my chest
So ordinary
It almost tells me
Life is hard
So I crawled down a forever winding road
A road so long,
the only end is a hole
So I ventured into that hole
It became my home
I loved it down there
laughing everyday
loving everyday
not a care in the world
But, then I had realized
That this was no longer
A nice place
Something happened,
that I cannot even explain
I wanted to leave my home
Forever
It was no longer a safe place
Not for my body
Not for my mind
But, everytime I went to get out of that hole I called home
Something pushed me back in
Then
light as bright as a new mornings sun,
handed me a rope
This rope screamed my name,
So loud I was frightened to grab a hold
I was elevated from this hole
Into the world I was missing
This sun was so nice to me
Always wanting me to do good things
Helping me move through in a positive way
The sun transformed into a woman
I loved this woman
She always listened
and cared
I became in love with this woman so quickly
I scared myself
I was so afraid of this emotion I felt
I didn't speak
I just did whatever the woman wanted
I was found by a lover that was not only my way out of the darkness, but it was a lover who needed and still needs help out of their own darkness.
