There is peace at the bottom of the well
Only the echo of the water slapping the sides
Only the rasp of your breath as it turns from fright to calm
Some claw up the sides, finding more dismay from failure
Failure is what put you there
Time to reflect on what brought you to this place
Time to understand
Time to find yourself
Time is all you have
To become stronger, to find peace
Hope is not guaranteed, peace is not given to everyone
You must find solace in the bottom of that well
My time is spent reading, thinking, reading some more. I was raised with views of this world full of love and open-mindedness, and from there, I have become one and the same. I form a lot of outrageous opinions and feelings that sometimes come out poetically, other times in random, yet coherent ideas. Please, be gentle. I do not expect to reach everyone, nor do I expect everyone to understand me. For those who do, I hope I make your mind a little more open, your day a little bit better.

Anger Induced
You caused this
This awful demeanor
This pessimistic outlook
This jaded character
With your inconsistency
With your backstabbing
With your hate
You caused this
This bottle of emotions
This shut down
This turbulence
You caused this
With your rotten face
With your hateful glance
With your pompous self righteousness
You take ownership
Wait
You won't
You never will
"Because of you" is for the weak
Influence is for the poor
I am strong
I am wise
I am respectful and cunning
I learn
Despite you I rise
Despite you I move forward
With kindness shown to others
With openness withheld from you
Despite your self appointed pedestal
You fall
Fall from grace
A disgrace to your sex
To your race
To your very name
Shame only to you
Power despite you
I rise, rise, rise
Smile at your demise
Laugh at the knife in your back
Placed there only by your malicious deeds
How dare you try to ruin me
How dare you affect me
Shame on me for letting you
F*** you
No
Forget you
Enjoy the bottom as you fall
This awful demeanor
This pessimistic outlook
This jaded character
With your inconsistency
With your backstabbing
With your hate
You caused this
This bottle of emotions
This shut down
This turbulence
You caused this
With your rotten face
With your hateful glance
With your pompous self righteousness
You take ownership
Wait
You won't
You never will
"Because of you" is for the weak
Influence is for the poor
I am strong

You fall
Fall from grace
A disgrace to your sex
To your race

How dare you try to ruin me
How dare you affect me
Shame on me for letting you
F*** you
No
Forget you
Enjoy the bottom as you fall

Healing
I am weak
I know not what I do
I have numbed the pain
Beyond my body and mind
Unleash the mind
Feel the body
Scars I did not know had happened
Stories I cannot share
Knowledge is lost
Hope is found
Who was I?
Who am I?
I am me
I am a barron land
New life, old life
Not the same
Do not apologize
For old life gone
Apolgoize for transgressions
For being lost
For pain
For hurt
Do not apologize
For being better
For leaving pain in the dust
Embrace the raw emotion
Embrace the change
Accept the change
Understand the change
Forgive the change
Do not apologize for change
One life to live
One life worth remembering
Your memories
Your scars
Know the stories
Be aware
Death will come
Tell of life
Apologize to others
Forgive yourself
One life
One death
Let both be your own
I know not what I do
I have numbed the pain
Beyond my body and mind
Unleash the mind
Feel the body
Scars I did not know had happened
Stories I cannot share
Knowledge is lost
Hope is found
Who was I?
Who am I?
I am me
I am a barron land
New life, old life
Not the same
Do not apologize
For old life gone
Apolgoize for transgressions
For being lost
For pain
For hurt
Do not apologize
For being better
For leaving pain in the dust
Embrace the raw emotion
Embrace the change
Accept the change
Understand the change
Forgive the change
Do not apologize for change
One life to live
One life worth remembering
Your memories
Your scars
Know the stories
Be aware
Death will come
Tell of life
Apologize to others
Forgive yourself
One life
One death
Let both be your own
