I wouldn't exchange a single moment or alter a second in the challenging universe of existence, for in surviving all those hard times, I discovered how to truly appreciate life.
Some of the happiest among us have braved the darkest nights, but darling, we know how to live; our scars shine oh so bright..

-Rhia Clay
To start living,
you have to shake off the dust of yesterday
and refuse to let it define you.
We are not our failures, we are not our mistakes.
We are not our incomplete sentences or lost words.
We are our future,
shining bright.

-Rhia Clay
My mind is covered in scar tissue from too many years of pain, with wounds that keep reopening as the world shakes me and pulls at my hair.
Still, I look up and see beauty.
In the early morning, the light radiated with such brilliance that I felt certain I could glimpse heaven.
All I could do was absorb the moment and give thanks.
I’d endure 80 dark nights for a morning so bright.

A bright beam of light
It fell right into my eyes
Now searching that light
The opportunity that once stood infront of ourselves is now gone.
deep red blood dripping onto the floor
bright red roses swaying in the breeze

orange prison jumpsuits walking in the yard
orange carved pumpkins on the porch

yellowed skin as kidneys fail
yellow sunshine streams through the window

dark green mold spores entering your lungs
vibrant green grass freshening the air

darkening blue ocean water pulling you under
clear blue sky calling peace to the turmoil

purple poison dart frog toxins seeping into your skin
purple flowers in bloom decorating the garden

"Why do you treat me right?
talking late in the night
staring in your pretty eyes
you're so pretty, that I might
might pull up a fight
the stars above shine oh so bright
yet, I only see you far in sight
why?"

Starlight, you are my starlight,
when you shine I remember the world,
when you don't I forget myself.

Starlight of my dreams,
you light up my hopes and heart.

Starlight, you are the only light
that breaks through the darkness
when oblivion descends.

Starlight, you are all I need,
you make the world silvery.
Rörenüviél, e mi rörenüviél,
cuindo astaï mi huimë Ain'an,
cuindo ti nac lethe mìs.
Rörenüviél o mi äiswye,
illsear mi òchas é craidha.
Rörenüviél, e mi eulhà nüviél
so briseare trahés dorchal'an
cuindo lethene ànandri
Rörenüviél, e yn mi soin,
ti aireaia Ain'an elléinén.
The Sun Shall Shine,
on the earth below,
on the trees, flowers
and grass,
Oh, let the Sunrays flow,
Just Bring us Love and Light,
For the Sun Shines so Bright,
Givng us joy and delight,
Pushing through the
Gloomy clouds
To display such
a marvelous, and
Glorious Sight
I hope that you will have,
a beautiful day
as the positive vibes,
Shine all the way today!!!

In the still of night, a plan took flight,
Like doves in the sky, so pure and bright.
But shadows whispered of danger near,
God saw the path and drew you near.

With gentle wings, He changed the way,
Protecting your heart, come what may.
So let the doves fly, unburdened and true,
For what was meant to harm you, God turned into good.
