poem 32

 “I let go 

and set myself free 

I closed my eyes

and let myself be


I let myself feel my emotions 

I feel my discomfort 

I feel my old pain 

I feel my heart hurt


I realized I was carrying old pain 

which made my body ache

my tears kept flowing 

creating a lake 


which I drowned in 

only to realize I could breathe

only to realize this pain 

wasn’t what I thought it to be 


they were my attempts to be genuine 

in a plastic world 

moments where people laughed

but my thoughts were pure


so I shelled myself off 

pretending to be 

something else

that wasn't even me."

  1. I effin love it. Not that my opinion matters here. I do wonder if such beautiful words could really have the same meaning to everyone who reads them. They couldn't possibly though because that would mean deep down were all the same. We come from different versions of the same pain but we survive and cry in different languages that would mean we are on the same side with the same goals to achieve in different ways but trying to change everything that's not even real when our focus would be better for everyone if even one of us started focusing on changing our own heads to a place we actually want to live in. I'm sorry don't mind me I'm contemplating if our reason for being is transmuting negative energy into positive and balancing everything in our own energetic kind of way... I know I'm crazy right but seriously it could possibly be just think :) S.T.

    1. we all are the same, we all feel the same feelings on different ways. I agree, life is about transmuting that negative energy into something beautiful that resonates from every pore of your body.
