Feelings
Box our feelings
inside a reason.
Intellectualize
every season.
Never let our feelings
do the healing.
There must be reasons,
for different seasons.
We tell ourselves,
to mask the feelings.
Let’s pop a pill
to do the healing.
Distract our minds,
with scientific reasons.
Rationalize the struggle;
overworking is ...

sometimes
Alas, my emotions win tonight.
I'm too exhausted to put up a fight.
How do I cling onto the light?
Jesus, my only hope, please make it alright.

Scars
It still hurts.
5 years.
It still hurts.
Just stay busy.
It still hurts.
Find a hobby.
It still hurts.
Help the needy.
It still hurts.
It's simple.
It still hurts.
Stop talking about it.
It still hurts.
Why aren't you over it?
It still hurts.
Don't make it about you.
It still hurts.
Let it go already.
It still hurts.
It's irrelevant.

You
And all this time,
I dream about you.
do you ever stop,
and think of me too?

Waking up Christmas morning
with a sense of sadness in the air.
These walls are unfamiliar,
a lack of memories we've shared.
Christmas is a time for joy,
a time for laughter with the ones we love.
Full of special family traditions,
and praising our Father from above.
But life is unpredictable.
In a moment everything can change.
What was once loved and cherished,

Speechless.
I open my mouth.
Not a sound escapes.
Speechless.
I never knew,

Would I crack under pressure if I speak?
Am I a sinner for staying silent?
There's no handbook for trauma.
There's no easy option when facing...

Past Sheep
Inch by inch,
piece by piece,
kicking down my walls,
you invade my sleep.
1 sheep, 2 sheep,
3 sheep, 4 sheep
hiding dark secrets,
did you forget to keep?
Long sumer nights
but has anything changed?
a sheep is a sheep,
all of you are the same.
1, 2
3, 4
pick your favorite part,
take a little more.
You devour what's accessible,
