When the pain comes,
I don’t hide. I show
myself. The pain comes
in waves – to say hello
and goodbye. I wave
back. I tell myself;
it will be okay. Today,
I go without feeling
pain – with nothing
but good thoughts –
inside my brain. Now,
I feel good. I feel free
as I walk today’s path.
I walk to a distant tree;
I take small steps to
a new life and I forget
about the pain I felt.
Tag: steps
Transcendence
The steps I’ve made
and the years I’ve seen
Allowed me to appreciate
the time in-between.
The days go by;
my clock keeps ticking
Faster and faster
to match my thinking.
Thoughts and memories
fade into the abyss,
Leaving behind
what will be missed.
But the changes
that I see help me
Envision a new
place to be.
