I Can Because I Think I Can

This blog is used as a way to document my poetry and overall wellness journey. I started this page in 2014 and fell off. It is now 2023 and I am back again!

Reaching out sharing pain

Sitting alone 

Unsure of what comes next

Do you even care? 

Goodbye feels so hard

Goodbye to you and hello to who I need to be

Holding hands with little me means letting go of you 

This anger hurts but you hurt me more

Be messy and complicated and afraid and show up anyway

Surrender to none the fire of your soul

There is no passion found in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living

I have a you sized hole and the New Year is here

What do I fill this with?

How do I stop the emptiness within?

Will this open wound ever evolve into something other than the dark abyss of missing you?

He bought her flowers at every special occasion, even ones not meant to celebrate her.

Tulips in the spring, carnations in the winter, tropical flowers in the summer

No matter how big or small the occasion, there he was with flowers and a warm hug

When he departed, the color from her world disappeared 

His color still shines through on the days when she remembers 

Today she bought her own flowers
