Rooted Deep in Blue.
Waves of this beauty crash in my chest.
This room, like the first flower blooming.
explosions
I drink in the words that you say
Refreshing conversation. Hydrating company.
Rooted so deeply in those blues.
Eyes that fixed upon my face, my hair is dirty
My mouth is clumsy and quiet.
Genuine is the smile that shines on your face.
bright is the light of your self discovery.
It is easy. This is easy,
natural,
flowing freely.
I love this.
I don't want it to end, or for you to go.
The chaos of life has brought me here, unexpectedly.
Reflection has shown me how grateful I am for the mysteries like you in my life.
I'm thankful.
Hopeful.
An insight from fate to destiny. - collaboration poetry
Be a river with me mighty ocean, be the storm, a bend in the path. Golden wheat in a windy valley, destined to sink further. Play me the songs of farther stars and rock me to sleep.
Ill be the wind that blows around you, the bite that sinks its teeth inside you. i'll be the song your body moves to. The breath from whispered love stories, the winding path you stride through. Just say you will be the note cascading through the sky for me, an embrace that lasts eternity, say you'll walk the earth with me, move the hair beside my cheek.
Ill be the wind that blows around you, the bite that sinks its teeth inside you. i'll be the song your body moves to. The breath from whispered love stories, the winding path you stride through. Just say you will be the note cascading through the sky for me, an embrace that lasts eternity, say you'll walk the earth with me, move the hair beside my cheek.
Singing the Ocean Song - collaborative Poetry
If you held a mirror to what I once was, you would only see guitar strings shimmering in the light.
The shadows that cast upon my face were a reflection of an internal ocean. Vast and lasting forever. I thought about the sun until it set on your horizon.
Sailing over lasting seas at dusk, I found the wind kissing my ribs. A giant slept beneath me and all around her breath breathed and brushed against this vessel. I welcomed the night like darkness the the stars did come a bit closer. The moon be a rock, yet it reflects the stars in the galaxy, such jewels the eyes come to life. Her breath a pair of lips inside my lungs like sails, pulling me onward.
The sails tugged like the strings in my heart. Playing melodies from the past. Remind me to breath, his touch that crashes like waves around me. The bright beams of light my body bleeds guides me to him.

Coffee Table.
What a useful gift you have become. You hold my work items, my school items, my food and drink. You hold memories from a life of brokenness and togetherness. You used to be a place for feet of mothers, and fathers, and pets alike. Your four legs supported the weight of the heaviness in the air. Now it is light and you show not a care.
I see the grout on the tile that lines you start to build up with residue. I watch as the cat and dog play over you. You have become a prop in the life of a child, you have become a chair, a desk, and a table too.
When next to a cousin much larger in stature, you look upon with eyes loving in nature. You enjoy the way you complement each other, one next to another, creating a place for more support and aesthetic pleasure.
If we could speak, I would tell you to remember your greatness, you are much more than a table for beverages. You support the families that reside here. The appreciation for your structure will never fade as long as you remain here.

LOVE LETTER TO MYSELF
DEAREST MICHELLE,
I know you are going through a lot of changes in your life. Many of these changes causing a lot of mental and physical turmoil. I know how hard it is to see yourself in the light OF LOVE AND ACCEPTANCE BUT AT LEAST FOR NOW, REMEMBER YOUR COURAGE.
IT IS COURAGEOUS TO BE SELF ACCEPTING, TO WANT TO CHANGE YOUR BEHAVIOR, TO WANT TO CHANGE YOUR PERCEPTION, TO WANT TO FACE YOUR PAST.
REMEMBER THAT ABOVE ALL ELSE.
YOU ARE NOT BROKEN, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU, IT IS HOW YOU REACT THAT MATTERS. YOU ARE STRONG AND LOYAL. POSITIVE AND WISE. THESE CHARACTERISTICS WILL HELP YOU THROUGH THESE TIMES.
KNOW THAT YOU ARE LOVED EVEN IF IT IS NOT FROM YOURSELF. THERE ARE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT YOU HAVE HELPED THAT YOU HAVE COMFORTED, THAT TRULY FEEL THAT THEY COULDN’T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT YOU. YOU ARE ALWAYS AND FOREVER LOVED.
THE PAST IS THE PAST. DO NOT DWELL, BUT USE EVERY MOMENT AS A GUIDE TO HELP YOU SEE HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME. CHOOSE TO LEAVE THE PAST WHERE IT LIES. THAT IS THE OLD YOU AND YOU ARE ALWAYS, ALWAYS CHANGING INTO A BETTER VERSION OF YOU EVERY DAY. THE MISTAKE YOU MADE YESTERDAY IS JUST A LESSON FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW, IT WILL NOT BE A MISTAKE AGAIN.
DO NOT LET THESE MISTAKES DETERMINE YOUR WORTH OR VALUE. DO NOT LET OTHERS OPINIONS OF YOU DEFINE YOUR WORTH OR VALUE.
YOUR PROGRESS IN LIFE IS WHAT IS IMPORTANT, NEVER FORGET HOW MUCH STRENGTH YOU HAVE IN FACING THE MIRROR EVERYDAY AND CHOOSING TO LOOK AT YOUR DOWNFALLS AS POTENTIAL TO TRANSCEND. TAKING EACH DAY TO SHED YOUR OLD SKIN.
IT IS A PAINFUL JOURNEY YOU ARE ON, AND YOU MUST HONOR YOURSELF BY ALLOWING YOURSELF THE TIME AND UNIQUENESS OF IT TO REMAIN SACRED. TAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF AND STAY OPEN TO WHATEVER EVENTS MAY OCCUR DURING YOUR JOURNEY AS A NECESSITY OF IT’S EFFECTIVENESS FOR YOU TO HEAL.
I LOVE YOU SO VERY MUCH. YOU ARE NECESSARY AND YOU ARE PERFECT IN EVERY WAY. DO NOT FORGET HOW FAR YOU HAVE COME, HOW BRAVE YOU ARE, OR HOW MUCH YOU CONTRIBUTE BY SIMPLY JUST EXISTING.
MICHELLE
words, words, words
the drips that drop through darkness
hang heavy and helpless
on the tip of lashes
waiting for my heart to break.
I hear the cracks begin to form.
The sound echos through me;
reverberating deep within
an uncontrollable quaking.
My mind replays these painful sounds; spoken words, tones, and assumptions.
I fight to keep composure.
I am awakened by emotion
and a subconscious need to be seen.
I hope I have Integrity
When Speaking With Sobriety
And Shaking With Anxiety
Expelling my shadow without knowledge.
I'm awakening little bits at a time.
