You may know me as a blogger and published author. Lately, I've stumbled back into the world of poetry. When I was much younger, poetry was all that I wrote. I hope you'll enjoy your view into the deepest parts of my soul.

No Escape
How do you let go of a dream you never thought
would die
Can you live through the pain of knowing it was all
just a lie
Pain seems to be a constant in life
Yet, I work every day to make myself believe I am so
much stronger
I look around at all of this sadness and wonder
How can I face this for even a moment longer
In the middle of the summer I'm wrapped in my
blankets, trying to get through the chills
I hide away from anyone and everyone.
Let them believe what they will
I feel like there's a weight attached to my leg, dragging
me down further and further
Please stop! I beg as my life becomes a blur
Sometimes I wonder why I continue to put my life out there
I wish I could accept the negativity without a care
It's clear to me now that I continue to let the past repeat
Wouldn't it be amazing to finally overcome such a debilitating defeat

It's lovely Beka. Just like everything you write. What a blessing to have you on our team! And how very brave of you btw, to put yourself out there in such a raw way. I write constantly but don't have the nerve to make it available for public consumption. Plus I haven't really figured out that blasted WP site and how to properly set up a blog so for now I keep it set to private and blog to... Myself! Lol 👍 U inspire me tho to work harder at figuring that out. It's hard to be an advocate when you're whispering... Thank you for sharing. 💗

ReplyDeleteThank you, Kate. I'm so glad you liked it. This blog is on blogger.com, I find it much easier to use than Wordpress. Maybe sometime you can send me a sample of your writing. Take care!
