The here and now
Don’t be afraid of lookin back
There’s nothing left to fear
As long as you stay in the now
Your demons can’t find you here
It’s not about reliving it
It’s about what you can learn
What can you take from your past
To get you what you yearn
You know the mistakes you’ve made
Now use them to make you whole
Use them to be the best you can be
That is the ultimate goal
But be cautious not to get stuck
Try not to stay too long
For living in the past won’t get you anywhere
The here and now is where you belong
We’re meant to live in this very moment
We shall not fear what is done
The past is but a memory
We start again with each new sun
Do not allow people to dim your shine because they are blinded. Tell them to put on some sunglasses, cuz we were born this way bitch!
There is nothing more beautiful than seeing a person being themselves. Imagine going through your day being unapologetically you.
Collide (a poem of tribulations in schizophrenia)
Standing side by side
The two worlds collide
What I see, hear, and feel
Is it fake or is it real
If its fake
Dear God let me wake
If its real
Please let me appeal
I feel my heart beating
But my brain is fleeting
My body feels out of place
Nothing is in the right space
My face looks distorted
My eyes all contorted
But who am I to know
The way it’s supposed to go
So many people standing around
It’s such a deafening sound
Along with the people in my head
I go whichever way I am led
Dizzy spells ensue
Clear moments are few
I can’t talk correctly
Without being told directly
I am not who you think
I am not who I think
I am not who anyone think
I am the product of the writers ink
