Life Inside of Me
Dear Life Inside of Me,
I know… I know…
I have to keep goingÂ
This fight is for me
I must LIVE Â
Yes it hurtsÂ
Yes, I’m sadÂ
I know if I stopÂ
If I continue to stopÂ
I will continue to dieÂ
So FEARÂ
I’m calling you outÂ
You’ve hidden as my friendÂ
 behind the shadowsÂ
You were killing me from withinÂ
You tried to end my storyÂ
introduced yourself as my protectorÂ
I put myself at the mercy of your integrity
You created crisis after crisisÂ
Hamster wheel not stopping
thenÂ
You took something from meÂ
Ground shaking, I couldn’t breatheÂ
Dying and fighting … dying and cryingÂ
Darkness and deathÂ
Here I am again? Howwwwwwww?Â
Looking to the leftÂ
Looking to the pastÂ
This…. feels …..familiar ….Â
Again… back here again ..
This makes no senseÂ
How..? What is it?Â
Light …bulb…. FEARÂ
Ahhhhhh
Goodbye you narcissistÂ
I will keep goingÂ
I choose to liveÂ
Forget my comfortÂ
Forget what wasÂ
You kept me holding the pastÂ
Afraid to LIVE
Long enoughÂ
This feelingÂ
This feeling I’m feeling …Â
It was you …
All alongÂ
Not Rejection, Not Abandonment, Not Lack, YOU….
You’ve ruined enough for meÂ
ENOUGH….
Goodbye fearÂ
I will keep goingÂ
You are no longer welcomedÂ
You die hereÂ
And IÂ
I BEGAN HERE NOW AND FOREVERMORE …
BECAUSE I EXIST fear YOU ARE NO MORE!(100 Style Score)

Little Bean
Little Bean Little Bean
I gots something to tells ya,
Little bean
It amazes me and leaves me in awe just how you light up a room
How you’re unapologetic for the swift cotton candy filled presence you bring
the attention you command
the hope you give bouncing off
the light you have within
little bean
little bean
you’re a wonder
oh how
I sit an awe, admiring you
you twirl with the winds
dance in the sun,
laugh in the rain,
play with the moon
weeds tried to end the seed planted
& upon suns rising you grabbed life and said
I won
Took off running
galaxies joined you
you stood up to the bullies
danced through it all
you sang your heart out
never cried when you fall
as if the Gods kissed you
the skies guided you
you created
what life needed
the missing peace
the yin to the yang
everywhere you placed your feet
Little bean
you’re a wonder
with a laugh like gardens
a soul of peonies
you turned
even the ugliest of things
into beauty
The beacon of hope you are
and were
A miracle and a sign
the empathetic star
I love everything about you
especially how unique you are
You are one of One
There is no other one.
Little Bean
I love everything about you
The Bold Miracle!
you defeated the odds
to give life what it was missing
you are the something beautiful
to every missing earth
You know what Little bean
You are heaven on Earth!Voting is closed

Maranda, I love this! Fear can take up a lot of our time. Many people look back and wish that they didn’t allow their fear to dictate the direction of their lives. I’m glad you are realizing this now so that you can plan your life without restraints!! Great work ♥
