There was no one to hear my laments
So I told them to the wind
The wind told them to the trees
The trees fed it to nature
And nature understood.

Eight years passed, and just like that
I came back and saw all the written hearts in this app.
Devices I used to lessen confuse.
Now that I'm back, I saw where I was at.

I can't believe I can no longer relate
to all the notes I once wrote with hate.

I knew in the past that "this too shall pass"
But how wonderful it is to experience at last.

I've waited for this...

I can't believe that just like that, everything's behind me. How amazing it is to experience a life that moves forward, everything that you once hoped. The healing you thought will never come, now all you remember was the feeling but bearable to live with. I'm grateful to every season God gives!

Not easy on eyes
Too hard headed
Too stubborn for you to try
I want my voice to be heard
Like to have final word
I get it, too opinionated for you to try
But,
I never promised to bow down
Serving your every wimp, hands down
Born without zip on my mouth,
Too proud to back down
I get it, too flawed to try this out.
I used to hear voices, of this I'm not proud
Often while thinking, I'm "thinking" out loud
I mutter sometimes and don't really know why...
Some think when I mutter, I talk to myself.
But I no longer talk to "myself"
Just "me" and "I."
😬 Yeah, I know. For some reason my brain starts going in that silly cadence, or meter, like whatever that is, what, iambic pentameter is like, penta- meter, so penta is five (I should formally study poetry, this is shameful) and I need to look up what iambic means... but I always think it sounds stupid and part way in I always seem to get wonky with syllables... yo, I love the way the word "monosyllabic" sounds and looks... just neat... (yeah, no need to convince me I'm odd) but I seriously need to educate myself on the structure of poetry. So, I am aware of that screwy syllable rhythm shift... I'm similar with music. Can play a few instruments. Can't read a lick of music. (Or play the instruments very well. But it's fun, and that's what I enjoy about it. 😉)

You may be beaten
But you can still heal
Your hands may hurt
But you can still provide relief
Your skin may be bruised
But you can still soothe others
You aren't weak just because you're broken
You can still make others whole.
You aren't limited by your own shattered flesh.
I'm still learning that even though I'm not doing well, I can still support the ones I love. You can still be a physician even with a broken leg.

I pick my scabs and wonder why I keep remembering
Reacting to old feelings and habits when it's not necessary after years of growth

At peace with my demons
Free from temptations
Finally awakened
Never forsaken by the God that created me

Thinking about what the future holds for me
Healthy as I can be
Manifesting who I aspire to be
