    The Siren’s Song

    Tell me all your secrets and you will be set free
    Listen to my mournful song of the siren sea
    For it is not those who have been lost, but those who have been found
    Hear my voice and you will find a solace in its sound

    I promise you a lifetime of treasure and opulence
    Fear me not, for I see the future and hence –
    Your time has come to be the king of the shadow realm
    Jump in with me and leave your past life at the helm

    Down and down we go to the darkest of the blue
    Sing my song and let its words envelop you
    Spill your dreams and let me feast on your memories
    Let me fuel your conscience and keep your mind at ease

    Drink in the sea or I will haunt you forever more
    It be your choice for coming here, knocking on death’s door
    Your soul is mine and I rejoice to kill once again
    The siren’s song means that I hold the key to your life’s end

    So when you hear the sounds of a woman crying out
    Stay on your ship, lest death will bring about
    The wayward man who doesn’t want to go to sleep
    I’ll drag you down to my humble home in the deep

    • Wow Kristen, this poem is so affectionate with imagery of the ocean.
      I love how you speak for the massive body of tremendously influential and destructive water. This makes the reader feel a deep connection with the ocean and gives it many natural characteristics. Thank you so much for sharing your deep connection with nature.

    Awww, you are wonderful! I accepted your request and would love to be pen pals with you! I also think a lot of people feel this way. And hopefully, I’ve helped them to not feel so alone as well. Sending hugs and love! ❤️

    Hi Lauren – Thank you so much for your kind words! I know I’m not REALLY alone, but my brain likes to lie to me and tell me untrue stories. I was having a really hard time the night that I wrote that poem. Thank you for your kindness. You are an inspiration to me! ❤️

    Loneliness

    Loneliness slithers in
    Like an unsuspecting snake
    Coiled around my neck
    Struggling to breathe
    With nobody around
    To save me
    In a crowded room
    I feel so alone
    Everyone has someone
    But no one has got me
    Each night I come closer
    To a planned death
    Because loneliness kills
    I don’t belong anywhere
    I’m not needed nor wanted
    So why even bother
    I’ll drift away peacefully
    Forgotten easily
    And never remembered

    • Kristen, I am so sad that you have ever felt this way. When you do, there are resources. I believe calling or texting 988 will connect you with a professional. You are an incredible human. And you are not alone. Sending you the biggest hug. <3 Lauren

    • Beautifully written. I think this piece of ART expresses a feeling that many of us are too afraid to admit. I’ve requested to be a pen pal with you. So that you never have to feel this way again.

    Recovery

    When the world goes to sleep
    And I am left awake
    With my lonely thoughts
    And subtle, soft heartbreak
    I can only breathe
    And readjust myself
    To the passing of time
    A picture on a shelf
    Non sum qualis eram
    Maybe something more
    Who I left behind
    Is running out the door
    Nothing lasts forever
    A former life was I
    Not solid on the ground
    Nor between the earth and sky
    In this newfound skin
    Is a person I’m not yet
    A new soul has been given
    But my blood has not been let
    Hope, it takes a hold
    Persistence is the key
    Of learning my new world
    And everything in me
    So with these hands I pray
    For a new life to begin
    There’s nothing I can do
    But to love myself within

  • Growing

    I am not a lazy girl
    So I’m working on me
    This person that I can be
    Is much better than before
    I feel like a winner
    Because I try and try
    To let life not pass me by
    I am always wanting more

    I am wanting happiness
    I admit when I am wrong
    And I know it won’t be long
    Until I am filled with glee
    I live an honest life
    Filled with love and hope
    I know that I can cope
    So now I’m much more free

    I have skills at my disposal
    I have learned so many things
    I’ve earned grace and wings
    To do with as I please
    I help others that are in need
    And I feel good inside
    I don’t try to hide
    My emotions are at ease

    But what I love the most
    Is the feeling that I get
    When I’m myself and yet
    This person that I know
    Has changed before my eyes
    I don’t know where I am going
    But I know that I am growing
    I follow my own flow

      “I don’t know where I am going
      But I know that I am growing”
      Trusting oneself and trusting the unknown – very hard endeavors but necessary for growth.

    Thank you Kayjah! I couldn’t agree more, that there is always the potential for connection and understanding. Very eloquently put! I have often wondered what it would be like to either time travel myself, or have a friend who time travels. I can only imagine the adventures I/they would go on!

    The Traveler

    Where have you been?
    My time traveling friend
    You’re here in the present again

    You were stuck in the past
    Confused and aghast
    Back then and forever in when

    You are never here
    Through these months and years
    When is it that you go?

    Sometimes it’s a loss
    But my hope I won’t toss
    From spring blooms to the fallen snow

    But if truth should be told
    And if the story unfolds
    Did you change everything that you could?

    For now it is now
    And I don’t know how
    You’d claim it to be as you would

    Because the trouble with time
    It only can wind
    To a future that is not yet

    However, with you
    To the future you flew
    Because time for you isn’t set

    So lonely you go
    A sad, sorry soul
    And no one can understand you

    We will meet again
    My time traveling friend
    In a world that to me seems so new

  • A Second Chance

    In the morning, I kneel and pray
    Thankful for another day
    To be alive and wonder aloud
    Because today I can be proud

    A selfish thing once was I
    Drinking and using, living a lie
    Now I am free from burden and strife
    I’m grateful that I can live my life

    I’m grateful for another chance
    To exist in this world, to steal a glance
    At what my future could possibly hold
    And to see what my story will unfold

    Here in the present there are many things
    Paintings to paint, and songs to sing
    Hands to grasp, and lips to kiss
    A life to live, I nearly did miss

    I’m grateful for grass underneath my feet
    I’m grateful that my heart still beats
    I’m grateful that I choose myself
    I’m grateful for my growing health

    Each day I live brings something new
    A different thought, a sky so blue
    And with supportive family and friends
    I’m grateful that my life won’t end

    But what I am most grateful for
    Is having you walk through my door
    A love I cannot ever explain
    You are my sun and falling rain

    With you by my side, there’s always light
    Hope and joy and sparks ignite
    I’m grateful to be sober with you
    And to live a life I never knew

    Everything means so much to me
    I never thought that I could be
    Happy and in a better place
    A second chance to show me grace

    I’m grateful at night to go to sleep
    And dream a dream so very deep
    But before all that, I kneel and pray
    And thank God for another day
