  • I'm Broken But Who Isn't

    I’m broken but who isn’t

    I’m broken but who isn’t we’re all just trying to make things right, for the religion was believing in yourself and to find just a piece of light.

    The story of a lost soul, trapped away.
    A soul that’s hope has withered away.

    I just want to feel alive,
    I just want to feel at peace,
    I just want to feel the ease where I’m able to see..

    Chained down by endless defeat.
    Giving up when things get to hard,
    For being controlled was all we are.
    What a bad thought to have yet it stirs up ever so often, where I have nothing left inside, feeling worse than broken, but pulled apart, asking the question why does life have to be so hard?

    I used to love to dance and be free, I was a wanderer of the stars, always waiting for a time for me and my spark, then awakened the dark.

    Looking back to something long forgotten, yet there it was etched upon my skin making me itch and burn and feel weary and thin. Feeling as if I was the one forgotten, and everything was a lie, making me close my eyes and cry. Scared to fall asleep at night.
    Then one night a storm passed by.
    Howling long and strong with contentment, and a breeze that made you think back to a time of trials and testaments, yet time went by and the noises had settled. A deep sensation had risen over me,
    For I was the phoenix rising through the finer things, reborn, steadfast and strong.
    I grew to accept my nature as the light of the sky,
    And of the night. The one who works up the fight.
    The one who never gave up without a try.

    Life goes on, they say you don’t know
    Until you try, look into a deeper sight.
    Stand tall, keep your head up.
    Your dreams aren’t as far as you think.
    Even when it seems like a wink,
    A thin link between the cracks, my life had been but a dream, far beneath reach, but I decided for me there is always a new time and beginning to past defeat.

    Then one day i found the missing key,
    A key that had been stored away for safe keep.
    I found deep inside, an ember of light.

    To get up, and to fight, a calling sent from above that can’t be ignored for this call is for more than me, a call for all of us to see..
    The dark and the light that t are a never ending fight. This story has no end because the journey has just begun, we will start again, and forge ahead.

    Thought of trial and tears, all the distraught fear,
    Picking up pieces of a puzzle that was set in place.

    For only god knew what you went through.
    For through the dark is where we find the light.
    The saying goes deeper than words.
    Everything does truly happen for a reason,
    Phenomenon of the truest stories and lessons ever
    heard.

    I’m broken but who isn’t,
    A thought that crosses my mind.
    From time to time, whispers of shattered dreams linger, and souls bear burdens hard to reconcile,
    Yet in the mosaic of brokeness, we find,
    A common threat that binds.
    Each of us carries wounds unseen, in the shadows where pain has been seen. For who amongst us has this fear of despair, the seeds of our own.
    In these moments of darkness, we search for the light, to guide each of us through an endless night.

    The story unfolds, for every battle fought does not go untold, we still stand, hand in hand, so don’t let the broken parts of us decide who we are, for this is the canvas of our hearts. We are beautifully imperfect creatures from the start, we are the symphony of struggles, a dance to begin,
    For in our brokenness we find our song,
    A melody of resilience, mighty and strong.

  • The Sky Has No Limit

    The phoenix rose like ashes from the grave
    A burning desire flying high.

    That It wasn’t just trying to get by,

    It was
    ‘The sky.

    And way up high it went where it left the past behind and began a new journey through nothing else but clothed in the flames of the light.

    Its spirit ran high like doves in the sky.
    Singing made it feel more alive,
    looking up made more sense than looking down, so up it went higher and higher..

    Until one day it experienced the change.

    The endless rage has finally slipped away.

    Letting go is scary but so serene.

    The unhealthy patterns leave no control
    by any means.

    Believe in the sky but believe in no limit,
    for we are the universe embracing the spirit.

    1:11 on the clock
    trust your intuition and embrace the change.

    There are levels to realizing your soul,
    To break free and go into the unknown.

    Once you spread those wings and fly,
    You will feel the fire arise.

    In every breathe in every movement,
    Set an intention to walk with a power so divine
    That NOBODY can harm your light.

    In the embers there was a glow of fiery red,
    That took flight through the night.

    Once you spread your wings so wide,
    No one can dim your light.

    It takes time to be reborn,
    To fly free from your cage,
    But trust You will find a way,
    To embrace the dawn for a brand new day.

    There are infinite cycles of life and death,
    If you fall, you will always start again.
    With a dance of destiny, and a timeless quest,
    To rise again, and break the soul free of limits that are put in our way, and give us a chance to inspire.
    From the depths of fear and despair,
    You ascend deeper into strength and grace.

    As your spirit ascends, you transcend with resilience born and trials you have faced,
    It is your testament of beauty and grace.

    It radiates blue, in the hue, its feathers blaze,
    A tapestry woven, in a dazzling maze.
    Each plume has a story, a chapter to unfold,
    The mystery happens once in a lifetime,
    OF RISING ABOVE,
    and being brave enough,to overcome.

    The phoenix rises through the galaxy skies,
    A living marvel that never dies, signing lullabies all through the night.
    Where the passion ignites in its fiery heart.

    And through these trials,
    it finds its way,
    it finds its power.
    A force so strong as a flaming flower,
    And as it sours it whispers a truth:
    Life emerges from the ashes anew.

    So let us not just learn from the phoenix’s power,
    But embrace it with every inch of our soul.
    Embrace our shadows, for from the ashes,
    We too shall rise, with strength and love,
    Our spirits will fly high.

  • To My Body That Shines In The Dark

    Used abused and cut through,
    The story of the body is beyond words.
    Growing and evolving to its highest
    Always flowing through the moment.
    Left with an ugly rip in the gut,
    From never getting enough.
    craving,
    Saving,
    Until the very last breath/

    falling in and out of touch with the truth.
    My body hurts
    My body loves
    My body is enough’
    \
    /
    To my body..
    I love you but i hate you
    Why did you think of what could’ve never been..
    You rose from the grave with lotus petals touching your face , ALL TO JUST STAY THE SAME?..

    This was never your destiny, to be gone in a day.
    How things can change,
    One day you wake up and things are not the same.
    Your a masterpiece, with cuts in your veins
    Building a structure of novocaine.

    How can things ever be the SAME?

    If only we Knew what the future held…
    But after a hurricane there does come a rainbow,
    Thats so bright even the night didn’t know how to shine its own light. Beaten and cut loose…

    YOU have always been the one that got me through.

    My body, your body..

    It was all just the same…

    Listening to a thought that pierces your own brain.

    That you’re not good enough, a question that resurfaces from the dust…

    But you will always be the one that shines the way..

    Or the thing that gets in my way..
    Of making a change..
    Or so I say..
    But the truth lies deeper than just the surface..

    • Shiana – I love this line, “But you will always be the one that shines the way..” Lean into this idea: “But you will always be the one that shines the way..” Your body is always the one to shine through – to be strong – to keep going. You are thoughtful, fierce, and powerful. Never forget that. Thank you for sharing! < 3 Lauren

  • To the man that taught me how to love again,

    I appreciate you for everything you’ve done, because I saw the light in you as you saw the light in me, we transformed together, and as I write this letter I wish you were still here with me.
    I thought love was a game, full of fantasies that could never be.
    The saying “home is where the heart is” is true, and my heart chose you.
    Over and over again i feel how we could’ve been more than just a fantasy,
    We were real, the feelings we had for each other were bigger than just a feeling, we were mindfully connected. We knew other deeper than the world ever would,
    I still would think about you after we broke up, waiting for you to come back home.
    Unfortunately, i wasn’t the one you saw your life to be, you got a new girl,
    But would you still think of me? I know you have missed me like i missed you, ‘
    You even told me how you felt out of anger with your girl in the corner,
    And yet you still couldn’t be open but your real feelings towards me.
    As these feelings fade, all that was left was our memories, but now those are gone too.
    I burned a thread of soul ties that made me think i couldn’t be alive,
    Because without you I felt like nothing, but I realize now you taught me what true love could be.
    I wish things didn’t have to end, at least the way it did, and now i hate that i can’t think of you,
    I cant feel you in my bed when i wake up, and i can’t hear you, i cant feel your touch.
    I believe we were destined to be like a dream, but now I know it was all a fantasy for me to believe we could’ve been something. When you hurt me, put your hands on me but I still wanted you, I know I could never find you.if you wanted me you would have fought for me, and not walked away when things didn’t go as plan, because that’s what i would’ve done, that’s what real love does,but it’s also true people don’t have the same hearts and never will, and that would be accepting the fact that we were not meant to be like i thought we were,but it still hurts.
    Even burning our soul contact, I feel as if you’re almost near, that you can never truly disappear.
    You were my knight and shining armor, that understood my darkness, as I did with yours.
    So why walk away? From what could’ve been a dream come true if you were only honest and real.What a shame that I can’t even blame YOU. since i pushed you to that point, all my trauma took over me where i unleashed every last hurt onto you, so it was only right for you to react,
    But when did it get so far , to not be able to heal and rebuild what possibly could have been
    I can write you 15 to 30 letters but would you read them? Would you even care?
    Would you dare? I know you would not have anything to say, since you are the one who walked away. Maybe you were just a selfish ghost, only in my life for a quick run through of my life,
    But this isn’t what i wanted, or even still want, my heart wants you and always will,
    And that will always be the hard truth. A pill to big to swallow, so i cry on my pillow, hoping maybe one day you see I’ve changed and we can come back to what we used to be,
    Bu this is the fantasy, because you would’ve came back we would have talked it out, ‘
    So there has to be a reason for all this chaos and all I wish it to teach me is the worm I can truly be for the next man that comes to pick me up off my feet, and strengthen me.
    I always thought love at first sight was a lie, but not when I looked in your eyes.
    How could you just get up and leave? When I need you..
    I will wait for you.
    And you will wait for me, ‘
    Because we were destined to be.
    Then a year later,
    This stranger finds me handsome and put together.
    I believe he is the one, not just looks but got his head put on right,
    And isn’t getting high, but on the love of the sky,
    He helped me to believe in my light, just who I was meant to be.
    He understood my pain, because he was also in pain at the time,
    We didn’t suck the souls out of each other like the past, but ignited creativity inside.
    You were my light knight and shining armor, I’ve been waiting for.
    You have always been there right outside the door.
    You were there for me like no other, let me cry on your shoulder,
    Walk outdoors with me, have adventures in the day, and at night.
    It’s been everything I longed for, you taught me how to love again,
    That true love I’ve been waiting for ignited inside for you helped me see who I can be,’
    I hope I did the same for you, even though we went our separate ways,
    You’ve impacted my life for a lifetime, and I will love you for the rest of my life.

    • Aww, one thing I have learned with dating is to take the lesson but leave the heartache behind. There will be another love. Another magical moment. And more memories to make with someone new. I saw this on instagram somewhere. It said “Let go or be dragged.” Take the good, and let go of any bad. Thank you for sharing and thank you for being part…read more

  • The Change Underway

    The world I wish to see is so bright, 

    Where the planet  is green,

    And people are set free.

     I wish to see a world Where we  live sustainably,

    Without harming nature unconsciously.

    I wish to see a world that’s just, 

    Overall beauty and pure harmony

    Built on equality and just.

     

    I wish to see a world that’s kind,

    Where mental health is the new state of mind.’

    Where support and love are in abundance,’

    And isolation is broken with radiance.

     

    I wish to see a world that’s wise,’

    Where education is the new high.

    Where people aren’t belittled for their own beliefs.’

     

    Above all, 

    I wish to see a world that’s united. ‘

    Where were connected to the divine.

    Where peace is the new fashion line.

     

    I can see the change underway,

    Where we gain trust and finally  be happy for once.

     

    A world that is content with a gentle pull,

    Swimming in the ocean deep within the soul.

    How we can have a change of spirit,

    And the world can change.’

    Maybe not over day, 

    but the new dawn is on its way.

     

    Believing in change is the hardest thing,

    For we are all lost in our minds,

    But spirituality can take you on new heights.

    Where your mind is not in plain sight.

    Change exists within us,  and always will.

     

    The old beliefs, 

    They crumble and fall beneath our feet.

    As we see a new horizon at reach,

    All is not found unless all is lost.

    Freedom for ALL’

    And justice for eternity.

    A world full of surrender and peace 

    This is all I wish to see.

     

    Let us let go and fall free from the disbelief,

    The opinions of others are dark and dim,

    But I can see with new eyes that are not grim.

    My heart is full of light, 

    And with my spirit high’

    All will be alright. 

     

    So let the winds change, 

    With less pain and more ease,

    And once this happens 

    the change will be underway.

  • You are beautiful

    Life is a beautiful lie,
    Your told not to cry,
    To move on and wipe your eyes.

    A butterfly becomes a butterfly by its wings,
    The same goes for any seed that plants a tree.

    A drop of rain that turns into a river,
    A smile that turns into a laugh.

    Leaves fall just like I fall for you.

    Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder,
    Or so I’ve been told.
    Love is as deep as magic in a bottle,
    Shedding the old to experience the new.

    A life is as simple as a book,
    Some pages must be written,
    And Some pages must be ripped out.

    Don’t you see the beauty that lies within you?

    The change and growth that emerges out of you,
    The light that surrounds you,
    The love that’s inside of you.

    You see two sides to you in the mirror,
    Not just the good and the bad,
    But the old, and the new.

    You see and feel the change all around you.

    The world is a dangerous place to love,
    but it is also the best place to learn,
    to discover who and what we are at the core.

    To be in the now with every breathe,
    feeling at ease, and at peace.

    It’s more simple than we all make it out to be.

    We are all beautiful creatures,
    We just experience the ugly.

    You learn,
    Memories fade,
    just like a leafs in the wind,
    Blowing away and never to be seen again.

    You learn,
    Things aren’t always as they seem,
    Black and white fading at the seams.

    You learn,
    Life is about finding yourself,
    To learn the truth about who you are,
    Within the means.

    You learn,
    The reality of things have all become a lie,
    To ensure people don’t wake up,
    To the truth of the divine.

    Life is a beautiful lie,
    But it is also beautiful when you look on the inside.

    When you realize things with new eyes.

    Beauty comes in many forms,
    But true beauty lies within.

    It’s not just skin deep, it’s the norm,
    It’s the way you treat others,
    With kindness and grace.

    It’s the way you help the world,
    And put a smile on their face.

    It’s the way you face your fears,
    To the very end.

    It’s the way you stand through the storms,
    It’s the way you dry your tears,
    Of those who are feeling worn.

    It’s the way you speak your truth,
    With honesty, and with care.

    It’s the way you spread your youth,
    And show the world you’re there.

    So don’t let the world define you,
    What true beauty is,
    Remember, you are divine,
    And all that you need is to see that
    you are beautiful on the inside.

    Cheers to a new year,
    and a fresh start,
    A beginning that brings a happy end.

    A chance to start over,
    to be a better person.

    To think more clear minded,
    to nourish the mind, and soul.

    To move through the body in a new way,
    to take all of the past away.

    I’ll be more alive and happy,
    by being my best self, and changing my ways.

    I will raise my spirit to the highest of highs,
    I’ll take it one day at a time,
    And make my future truly sublime.

    Life is a beautiful lie,
    But the true beauty lies inside,
    A shining star so bright,
    And with that inner beauty as your guide,
    You’ll be a beacon of light.
