@alchemicverse & @picklemafia “Overcome” prompt by meagain
“I race in time across the wrap-around porch
The breeze lingers in my hair
Like the smell of rain
Or the campfire that night
I see your eyes in mine
I lose my mind
Trying to get you out of my system
The depth of my sorrow and pain
Rings deep in the crevices of my blood
Making my once opulent inner world
Feel completely void of love
And yet
My feet gather dirt on their heels
My breath moves in and out of my lungs
I am too young to retire my will
I am too young to get my fill
Overcoming-creating light from the darkness-
I am much more myself now
Than I’ve ever been.”
