  • Flight mode

    Until you’ve walked in another’s shoes,  
    You’ll never know the depth of their blues,  
    Surrounded by faces, yet so alone,  
    In a constant state, always on the roam.

    Body feels numb, a chilling embrace,  
    I want to feel something, but can’t find a trace.  
    Told myself I’m strong, that I won’t succumb,  
    But the weight of it all, has me feeling numb.

    I feel everything, but it's all too much,  
    Heavy on my heart, a ceaseless touch.  
    I long to escape, but the path is unclear,  
    Trapped in this zone, with no end near.

  • The Power and Perils of Love

    Love transcends mere emotions,
    It forges a profound connection,
    A bond resilient against trials,
    An infinite wellspring of affection.

    To love deeply is to truly see,
    To grasp hopes and fears laid bare,
    To uphold in darkest hours,
    And gently wipe away despair.

    It means standing steadfast through all,
    Never faltering when challenges loom,
    Sacrificing for their joy,
    And affirming they're enough to bloom.

    Love embodies patience, kindness,
    Selflessness, and forgiveness too,
    Placing their needs above our own,
    Always there to see them through.

    If you discover someone truly dear,
    Treasure them with all your being,
    Demonstrate the depth of your devotion,
    And shield them from life's sting.

    Love is the most precious offering,
    A gift to give and receive,
    It infuses life with purpose,
    And nurtures faith to believe.

    Yet love gone awry breeds sorrow,
    Leaving scars in its painful path,
    Clutching too tightly, refusing release,
    Drowning in a sea of wrath.

    Toxic love breeds manipulation,
    Control, jealousy, and fear,
    Shredding the soul's fabric apart,
    Leaving emptiness and tears.

    Possessive love engulfs entirely,
    Leaving us adrift and lost,
    Blinding us to reality's clarity,
    Trapping us in anguish's frost.

    Thus, we must love with care and truth,
    Guarding against corruption's blight,
    For tainted love shatters and wounds,
    Leaving us shattered in the night.

    But pure, genuine love elevates,
    Liberates and brings delight,
    A beacon of joy and boundless bliss,
    Filling our hearts with radiant light.

  • Wonda

    Her rare interior so smooth and delicate 
    But her outside , damaged and crude 
    She’s like the Saturday night blues
    A few hits and now’s she’s on snooze 
    Oh, my dear wonda, if only they knew
    The beauty that lies within you 
    If only they could see 
    The strength and grace you possess 
    Instead of judging based on what they see 
    But fear not, wonda 
    I’ll keep your true essence shining through 
    And I'll help you radiate brightly 
    Like the magnificent star that you are

  • In the shadows

    In the void of my mind, you linger, you stay
    A haunting presence that won't go away
    Absent in flesh, but present in spirit
    A constant reminder of all that I fear

    Your whispers, like knives, cut deep in my soul
    Aching, throbbing, taking its toll
    You're a shadow, a specter, a weight on my chest
    A never-ending torment that won't let me rest

    You cloud my thoughts, distort my perception
    Leaving me drowning in a sea of deception
    Your absence suffocates, a crushing despair
    Leaving me gasping for a breath of fresh air

    I try to break free, to escape from your grasp
    But you're a relentless foe, a never-ending rasp
    You're the one who is absent, yet always near
    A constant reminder of my pain and my fear

    But I'll keep fighting, even when it's hard
    I'll find a way to mend my broken heart
    For though you may linger, torment my mind
    I'll rise above the pain, leaving you behind.
    This poem reflects the struggles of battling with the persistent presence of negative thoughts and emotions. I try to describe feeling haunted by a ghostly presence that lingers in my  mind to reflect pain, despair, and a sense of suffocation. Despite the overwhelming weight of these feelings, I express at the end determination to push through the darkness and find a way to rise above the torment. The title "In the Shadows of Sorrow" encapsulates the theme of grappling with inner turmoil and seeking to overcome it as life can weigh us down sometimes it it’s important to know our shadows can be our strengths too

  • Fleeting Hope, Lingering Pain

    In the depths of despair, a shadow resides,
    Whispers of doubt, where my heart abides.
    Why do good things slip away from my reach,
    Leaving my soul wounded, unable to preach?

    I dare not dream, for fear of the fall,
    Every success, a fleeting, cruel call.
    A cycle of loss and heartache, it seems,
    Leaving me broken, adrift in my dreams.

    I feel unworthy of joy, of love, of light,
    As if all good things will vanish from sight.
    But within me, a voice cries out to believe,
    That there's hope beyond what I perceive.

    I must confront the darkness, the pain, the strife,
    Embrace the shadows that haunt my life.
    For even in sorrow, there's a flicker of flame,
    A promise of healing, of release from shame.

    So I'll cling to the hope, despite the despair,
    And trust that my heart will learn how to repair.
    Though setbacks may come, I'll rise from the dust,
    For I am deserving of love, of joy, of trust.

  • Embracing Gratitude, Letting Go, and Finding Wisdom: Navigating Change Through Mindfulness Practice

    Describe one positive change you have made in your life.

    Lately, the changes I’ve been implementing in my life have revolved around the importance of pausing to acknowledge and be grateful for the simple yet significant blessings we often take for granted, like the air we breathe and the opportunities we’re afforded. A quote that has stuck with me is “Let go and let God be.” Despite my ambitions and aspirations, I’ve come to realize that genuine wisdom stems from recognizing that I can’t always control every aspect of life, no matter how much I may wish to do so.

  • Harmony in Imperfections

    We could be a melody, full of imperfections,
    Our harmonies blending in unique directions.
    With each note we play, a new story is told,
    Creating a symphony, beautiful and bold.

    Our rhythms may clash, our tones may not match,
    But together we create a perfect patchwork.
    In our discord, there lies a hidden beauty,
    A song of love, woven with complexity.

    So let us embrace our flaws and mistakes,
    For they are what make our music great.
    In our imperfections, we find our connection,
    A melody of love, pure and perfection.

  • Shadow side

    Beneath the confident facade that I show the world,
    there's a quieter side not everyone sees unfold.
    Though I may appear strong and outgoing in light,
    I truly cherish moments of peace in my own quiet night.

    I find solace in simple joys like lazy Mondays in bed,
    though speaking to crowds fills me with dread.
    My passion lies in making a positive change,
    and exploring new hobbies keeps my life rearranged.

    Photography, rollerskating, or learning a new craft,
    bring me fulfillment and memories of my grandmother's past.
    Though others' opinions may weigh on my mind,
    traveling and meeting new faces help me unwind.

    I have a quirky sense of humor, hidden behind sarcasm's veil,
    and accents for fun, like my British one, never fail.
    Through displacement and vulnerability, I've learned to embrace,
    life's challenges with humility and grace.

    There's a side of me that craves attention and control,
    a shadow side hidden from the world's patrol.
    It's all me, flaws and all, that I'm learning to embrace,
    finding solace in my room, without the need to chase.

  • Self reflection

    What is one word that describes you?

    Upon pondering this question, I embarked on a little quest to seek out perspectives from my friends, family, and acquaintances by asking them to describe me in a single word. The responses were diverse and thought-provoking, with each individual offering a unique viewpoint on my character. From descriptors like ambitious, amiable, and charismatic to words such as outgoing, bodacious, passionate, curious, caring, and even high maintenance, the range of perceptions led me to engage in deep self-reflection. While none of my friends mentioned the word “Trailblazer,” it is a term that resonates deeply with me. “Trailblazer” embodies qualities of a pioneer and innovator, characteristics that my grade 10 business teacher recognized in me. His insight has stuck with me, highlighting aspects of myself that I may not have fully acknowledged at the time, particularly my outgoing nature and unwavering drive to pursue my aspirations relentlessly. That’s why If asked to describe myself with a single word, I would confidently choose “Trailblazer,” as it encompasses all the traits expressed by others and resonates with the essence of who I am.

  • Embracing Change

    I told myself two years ago
    Don't be afraid of change
    Embrace it, welcome it
    Don't let it feel so strange

    But now I find myself
    In a constant state of fight
    Every drastic change I face
    Fills me with such fright

    I thought I was prepared
    For whatever life may bring
    But when it comes down to it
    I struggle with everything

    I try to push through
    To embrace the unknown
    But the fear inside me
    Has only grown and grown

    I know I need to change
    To grow and to evolve
    But the battle within me
    Is hard to resolve

    So I'll keep fighting on
    Despite the fear I feel
    Hoping that one day
    I'll find a sense of zeal

    For change is inevitable
    And I must learn to adapt
    To let go of my fears
    And leave behind the trap

    I told myself two years ago
    Don't be afraid of change
    I'll keep reminding myself
    Until my mindset rearrange.

    This poem delves into my internal struggle and fear that often accompany significant changes in life. I initially motivated myself to embrace change, but as I navigate through it, I find myself resisting, feeling overwhelmed and fearful. The poem delves into the difficulty of releasing fear and my journey of adapting and growing through change.
