#selftrust
Unmovable. Grounded. Fair. Not bending to rules. Not twisting my neck to fit a narrow doorway. A voice like a signpost pointing ahead. Think this way. Think that way. Follow. My mind is not a leash. My instincts are a compass never learned, never read. I am not a follower. I am not a prisoner. I stand in my own alignment. I follow no rules but the quiet authority inside my own mind. I let my brain lead. I do not conform to cages dressed as guidance, to control disguised as care. Yet I am called insane. I say I am Sane.

Reminder #25
If one day you break, too tired to cope, And search the dark for hands of hope Don’t reach for theirs, they come and go, With fleeting warmth and faces you don’t know. Just lift your left and find your right, The one that’s stayed through every fight. Your other hand, scarred, quiet, true Has carried all that life gave you. It wiped your tears when no one cared, It held your chest when pain was bared. No vow, no oath, no distant friend Can match the grip it dares to lend. So fold your fingers, let them bind, And trust the touch you always find. For storms may rage and trials descend But none defeat the hand you lend. The world breaks many, but never the one Who learns to stand with hands of one.

The Other Hand
If it was incredibly uncomfortable, there is a big lesson behind it. You are growing.

Reminder #17
Every stepping stone With you, with us Counts for me, Does build trust Slowly I believe in more, Want to take in all of you With my heart and soul I feel safe with you, I do, But out there the non existent dangers, Created by my mind, Are threatening enough, To make many small accomplishments Difficult and tough. So I celebrate, Every stepping stone, With you by my side, I believe even more, I not only believe but I'm actually implementing, What I learned all those years in pain and desperation. The insecurity within me worries, What If I'm just projecting some stories, Onto you, Putting my hope and soul in you, Afraid to fall and shatter at some point... But STOP I need to let go of this voice. Futile is the harming action in our minds, It brings dissatisfaction, makes us blind, It makes us lost and our potential fading... But I believe in light within our hearts.

Grateful in the morning
I am starting to arrive At MYSELF, Finally tasting The fruits Of self care and Self-help. That supportive voice I started to hear Took years of work To appear. Now I am blessed With warmth in my chest, It's all I ever needed And some rest.

I have arrived.
Today I'm fresh Today I am new I am feeling around in the dark, but it's only my hands It's only my voice that answers the queries I knew something was wrong when I looked for your voice before my own When I wanted your hands in case my clumsy pair failed I was living my life through you So, one set of hands and one voice ringing through the dark is the answer And I answered I am all I need

Right
I woke up on a black stained beach In a country I wasn't sure of The ocean appeared to me More reckless than ever With your body in it Looking back at me I somehow lost the pain That was always inevitably connected to love I found peace within you And you helped me recreate it Into faces with Your unwavering blue eyes And my uncontrolable lips I could see the way you took my fear And slowly replaced it with trust And I could love again Like it was always intended

The vision
I am slowly ********** Last night I took out my metal For I could not stand the weight During years now Am I washing off smeared make-up from my face I think it's beginning to show my skin Sometimes I speak and the echo brings my own voice back to me It sounds so much calmer than I remembered My hair has been growing back its color It tickles on my shoulders I'm getting there It's terribly slow and difficult But I think I'm finding myself

I caught you smiling, whirlwind in my stomach. Why are you hiding? Can't you see, you're all I wanted? Undress me with your eyes, let your lips be my disguise. I want you to be mine, I know it's not the right time. Show me your soft side, there's a guy in you, the one I like. I know its there, just let go, be bare. Why are you hiding? I saw you smiling. A smile full of hurt, eyes tired of crying. I wanna be there for you, you need to see that I care. Just grant me your trust, I'll show you; I'm trustworthy. Give me this one chance and I'll love you till the end. I will not try to fix you, for there's no fixing needed. You're perfect the way you are, every corner, every piece. Believe me, boy, I'm going insane. Love me now or leave me in pain. I caught you smiling. Butterflies everywhere. Why are you hiding? Can't you see, I care?
