Ugh!

I wish I was writing more. Idk, I seem to have lost my inspiration. So much is happening here in the states, and I want to get involved. I am working in behavioral health and my job is being affected by the Administration. It’s so frustrating. There are so many people that can’t get housing, or even food and I can’t do much about it. I hate having to tell people that they can be on the housing list for a decade because there is no longer funding. Or that they can’t even have therapy because of lack of funding. There are so many people who need help, and I can’t do anything to help them. You would think that would be inspirational, but it’s not. It’s so infuriating. Anyway, I hope to get inspired soon. And hopefully positively inspired. Anyway.l, that’s where I am right now.

Poetry

Perpetually Alone

In the deepest pit of despair

When hope feels completely lost

There is nothing to grab on to

But then the dawn breaks

And light leads you 

Back to a place of balance

And yet, there in the hopeful sunshine

You are more alone 

Than when you disappeared 

Into that dark pit 

You are ready to embrace

The peace and joy

That eluded you

And you have to do it alone

Staying sane and hopeful 

Alone

Alone

Alone

Poetry

Will I Ever

Have another first kiss

Hold hands with someone who makes my palms sweat

Know what it’s like

To not be alone

Will I ever

Watch the sunrise again

After a long night of talking

Know what it’s like

To be ok

Will I ever

Catch a snowflake with my eyelashes

Or feel one melt on my tongue

Know what it’s like

To be free

Poetry

Demons in My Head

Demons in my head

Get louder everyday 

Only so many pills

Can be taken

To drown them out

But there’s always an echo

Of the demons in my head

Will they ever go away

Add therapy to the pills

To drown them out

But there’s always an echo

Of the demons in my head

Always an echo

Always an echo

Always an echo

Of the demons in my head
