Fight.
ReplyDeleteGot to fight.
Gotta stop the whispers
From those who don't
Even know me.
Sky
ReplyDeleteAt the park
You look up in wonder
"Sky" I say, pointing
You smile and reach out
As if to touch it
I hope you never stop trying.
I don't know
ReplyDeleteHow it happened
Or when,
If I did something
Wrong
Or didn't do it
Enough.
All I know
Is that now you say
I'm not your hero
Or even related.
I try to do good
By you,
But somehow it's all
Burned down.
You see me--
Saw me--
As a mighty oak
But now the sting
Of your words
Of your actions
Of my distance and
Helplessness
Have diseased this oak
And have cut it

Is that somewhere
Inside
It hurts

Feet
ReplyDeleteGrounding
Flat on the floor
My feet remind me
To keep moving forward
and leave the past behind me
Awakening
I push down through my toes
and reach up to greet the sun
Tuning out all the noise
As mind and body become one
Liberating
In my teens I once decided
To walk through the town centre
With my feet bare
I was shy back then but when people stared
I didn’t care
Refreshing
Running through the park
Its like I can stop time
My feet barely touch the grass
Leaving my worries a mile behind me
Supporting
When life gets too much
They take me to where I need to be
The footprints in the sand are mine
I hope my feet never fail me.
