Broken

The dam that kept me under control broke

The water spilled through and look what happened

The destruction of what I was told was meant to be

Became

grass,

flowers,

trees.

Don’t tell me that the dam was for my own good

You may like the desert but

I like the woods.

.

Let the daisies softly carpet what once was rough and barren

Let the trees offer their cool shade

Let the water flow into each living thing like a second breath

.

If you want to save my soul

Give it life

not

death.

Mind Sailing

I keep thinking about what the future will be like

But more than that,

What I want it to be like.

I don’t know if I believe in manifesting,

but I believe in choices.

.

Life is not always choosing between certain paths because every once in a while you arrive at a seashore.

From there you can take a boat where there are no bounds.

You just trust that deep down in your soul you are connected to the water that keeps you floating.

The great Mother that rocks you to and fro

will bring you to a place

no one has been

and you will feel you have arrived

home.
