Things happen for a reason.

I have always said that things happen for a reason. I have told people that all my life because I believe it. But I have a hard time remembering this phrase for myself. Until today, that is. This morning I was late getting the kids and I out the door for school. My virtual therapyContinue reading “Things happen for a reason.”

In the dead of night

In the darkness I take a seat I listen and I hear The steady pounding of a heart beat The ones I love sleep soundly near As sleep settles in I am kept awake A blank face turns from a grin My mind feeling chaotically made It’s time for rest My body would say ButContinue reading “In the dead of night”

Dear Me,

I know things are stressful, but trust me, things will be ok. Sometimes we feel overwhelmed, sad, angry, worthless and scared. Things will work out for the better though, don’t you worry. We have been held down, walked on and been told we aren’t allowed to thrive. But thrive we will, we must. We mayContinue reading “Dear Me,”

Here comes Santa

I may not believe in Santa anymore Or the naughty and nice list I may not believe in the North Pole’s cheerful elves Or 9 flying reindeer But I think I still believe in magic. While I know Santa isn’t real because my stocking has stayed empty for a decade, I still believe in theContinue reading “Here comes Santa”

I thought I could hurt forever…

I cook and clean and fold your clothes You never say you’re thankful anymore. I always thought I asked too much, is my fairytale idea of love, delusional?

Manifesting a dream

I’ll be sitting, Cozy on the couch Wrapped in a blanket sipping Hot tea rests in my hands without a shadow of doubt This is where I’m meant to be. The walls of a beautiful home Open arms for love to roam Unafraid to crawl in bed to go to sleep I can lay soundlyContinue reading “Manifesting a dream”

Holiday traditions

With Christmas just around the corner, and Yule, the Winter Solstice, and Hanukkah coming to a close, I’ve been thinking about family traditions. I want to know what all of you do for the Holidays! The traditions I had as a child are mostly long gone. And while that makes me sad, I know thatContinue reading “Holiday traditions”

Restless

If it’s a restless night, It’s a restless day. No matter what you do, you won’t seem to shake the cobwebs from your brain. You’ve been kept awake by nonsense and disarray. And told in the morning “you’re not remembering it right, why do you act this way?!” Days go by, the same ol’ thing.Continue reading “Restless”

If roses could speak

If roses could speak They might apologize for hurting you inadvertently If roses could speak They’d say their thorns are for protection, you see? If roses could speak They’d say defending themselves is necessary For if roses could speak You’d know the predators who would say they were pretty and prey on the “weak” ButContinue reading “If roses could speak”
