Confessions of the Wounded
I breathed in fire and forgot to spit it out
Now it's churning in my veins
Like a fire dragon
Making me powerful
So I'm saying things that you haven't silenced
You've silenced your problems but I know you still see them -
Molecule
I'm standing
a fragment of the puzzle pieces of the world
clicking and grinding into place around me
while I stand
silent
tattered jeans
paint splattered shirt
arms reaching for something that isn't there -
Petrichor
If life were an ocean
you'd be a bouy
Rising above the waves
If life were a beach
You'd be the young turtle
Crawling toward sun from her cave.
If life were a playground
You'd be the young child -
How to talk to teenagers
Look us in the eye
We'll look back if we are worth talking to.
If you just see the top of our heads
And our faces lit up by screens
Walk away.
Don't give up though.
Find another one of us who will engage with you. -

Believer
I believe in watching sunsets
And reaching your fingers up
Until you brush the sky
And have color stained fingers.
I believe in laughing and smiling
And being happy
To be alive in this moment.
