Picture This

Painting the picture

Having those crazy thoughts

wondering if I am going to make it.

Not wanting to run lose

Gaining control of all the pain

Wanting to lash out and cry again.

Letting all those feelings slide

I woke in panic that I didn’t die.

All those rampant feelings

Trying to make me feel like losing control

wanting to wake up from this nightmare

Oh please I don’t want to die and just be my soul.

Morning Sun

Waking up to the morning sunrise

Hearing the birds greet the new morning.

Smelling that brewed coffee

to start the day.

Waking up to the alarm going off

rolling out of bed

grabbing the freshly brewed coffee

Grateful to be alive

Thankful for this brand new day.

To start in my own way.
