Life after death
Death may mark the end of eras, ages, and life stages, but it also marks the beginning of new journeys and the rediscovery of what may have been lost along the way

Waves caress the shore
Gently soothing the rough sand
Twilight descending

---

The luminous moon
Nestled beneath gentle wings
Eyes shining silver

---

The cage breaks open
She sings for all our children
Her heart is open

The panic rises from my chest
Encasing my throat
Thin bony fingers encircle my neck
and choke me

They cut off the blood flow
from my heart
so my head
cannot think.

Existing in a separate time and place
Divided into uncertainty
and I know
I'm waiting
To make myself whole again.

Like an incomplete circle,
I am unbalanced.
The world keeps spinning
But I am stationary
Frozen in place
and rooted in trauma

I'm still here.
Deep in your soul
The me that has always been.
I'm here.
I'm waiting to be accepted.

I'm waiting for you
To accept me unapologetically.
With beauty and grace.
We will float above the clouds
Together.

What is it you hope to gain
By watching others every move
By invading the minds and hearts of innocents.
What do you think the end game is
The result of your sordid schemes

There is no hope left in here.
No emotion
My soul you took and ripped into pieces
Just shards for me to pick up
But first, I have to find them all.

So despondent - my insides are dead.
Blackened and charred from the fires you lit.
The gas you poured down my throat;
Choking me, until I had no more breath
Void - just empty nothingness

No escape.
There is no way out of this place.
They surround me now,
dark and twisted,
hollow, empty eyes.
Crooked fingers - cold as ice.
They burn my skin.

Please help me Lord.
I know not what I do anymore.
I don't even know myself.
Who am I now, but a walking zombie.
Just a shadow of a shell now.
Will I ever be whole again.
Whole and complete.

Trinity.
Hold on.
All will come full circle.
Stay with me.
Remember where you came from.

Destiny manifests itself now.
You can feel the waves crashing up against you.
A new energy flowing your way that will light your soul up.
Take it to a new peaceful place of being
where nothing can harm you unless you so choose to allow it.

There is a calm breeze blowing.
Ready to caress your weary heart and mind
and wash away all your pain and sorrow.
It's time to let go of the old and embrace the new.
There is joy coming your way that will fill you up if you allow it in.

No regrets, no complaints - just complete acceptance.
The clouds will part and darkness will be erased.
Replaced by light.
The light from that glimmer of hope you held
so close and dear to your heart for so long.

The hope kept you going.
Hope for a better life.
A more fulfilling way of being.
A calm centre where nothing can interrupt the gentle feeling of this new life.
This new life full of wondrous joy and happiness.

There is nothing that I want more than this new start.
This new beginning.
Leave the past behind with all the shadows and embrace the future.
The future where I belong.
The future I have worked so hard for.

The endless possibilities in this new ocean I am swimming in.
The waves lap gently upon my skin and cleanse all negativity within.
Calming the anxiousness and the fears I have carried for so long.
Letting the joy overcome the suffering I have held for so long.
The endless waves will carry me to where I need to go.

There is only room for those things I choose to allow in.
Let this be my way of leaving the darkness and pain and sadness in the past.
Where it belongs.
There is no place for it here anymore.
There is only light.

Warm white light surrounding me with protective energy.
A rainbow erupts overhead, and I am bathed in beauty.
It will last an eternity if I allow it.
An eternity will take me wherever I need it to go.
I am so happy and at peace.

I just want to wrap myself in this blanket of happiness and enjoy the moment.
This moment is what is true and what is important.
Stay in this moment of light and warmth.
Bask in the glow.
Stay here and realize your true potential.

This is all that matters in the end.
You and your great love for the creator and the world around you.
Take care of yourself - forever and always.
Keep true to yourself.
Let no one in who isn't safe, who doesn't resonate truly with you.

Know yourself and you will stay free.
Free to be a bird soaring through the sky.
You will know only freedom.
Freedom and Joy.
Peace and Love.

Still pondering this existence
and swirling
in the uncertainties
of my next step forward.

Never to be truly accepted
seems to be
the theme of my life
no matter where I am
or who I am surrounded by.

Family,
I suppose,
is the one truth.
The one constant
slowly
ebbing
away.

There are
so
few
left

I hold my memories
close to my heart.

The two I held
dearest
are just faint lights
in my mind
now.

My heart is heavy
with sorrow.
I am unsure
how it heals.
Perhaps it never does.

The scars and pain
make it harder,
but also more resistant
to the onslaught
of neverending arrows.

Poison-tipped,
fiery arrows that
shock you
like lightning bolts
out of a thunderous rage
being shouted out at you
by the thoughts of others.

Will it ever end?

That rage
seems to be
directed towards me,
but
is it all just
in my head?

I am not sure anymore
what is real and
what I just imagine
in my head.

Not sure that
imagination
is necessarily
a detriment,
but

I don't know
how many others
can understand
the depths of my mind
and not judge it

To be
just
another
crazy person.
A misguided woman.

I know who I am,
but I have tried
to present an image
more acceptable
- to the world
- to society
- to the people I am surrounded by.

I think,
I know
I can just be myself,
but it takes
great strength
in the face of others
who would love
to bring me down
and crush me

just
so
they
can
feel
better.

Just because
they don't know
how
to just
be.

Be one
with the world.
Be one
with others.

Allow the feelings to swirl around,
take over for awhile.
Just to remove yourself
from your own torturous mind.

Be at peace.
Like a diamond
washing away to the sea depths.

Waiting to be cleansed
by the salt
and rough water.
Only
to be thrown aside
by the waves

A light has gone out and now,
I am left in the darkness.
Floundering around without a guide.

I am alone in this place
With no emotions
And no thoughts.
Completely empty.

You cannot guide me out of this abyss, But I must find myself
And pull my own spirit out.
It is still there -
Just a tiny spark to find.

Just one last minute bit
Of hope
That will shine brightly again.

Keep your faith close at hand
As it will fill you up once again,
In time.

Life seems so pointless at times and other times it seems full of possibilities. Which way will I wake up and feel tomorrow? Will I feel like there is a never ending abyss waiting to take me down or will I feel like I can take on new challenges? Will I feel full of hope of full of sadness? I'm not sure when this uncertainty will end, but hopefully I can shake the darkness off and move forward with confidence.

How long did I live feeling like I had to make things work with what I had instead of living for what I truly wanted? How long did I deny myself feelings and deny myself the things I truly enjoyed and wanted in life? I don't want to be what someone else wants me to be any longer. I just want to be the me I am meant to be. The one who loves getting lost in stories, video games, and fantasy worlds. Who loves art and creativity. Who sees colour and life in music. Who feels the music in their veins. The one who wants to feel free to be herself and not worry about what anyone else thinks about who she is or how she presents herself.

I want to be full of childlike wonder and amazement for the world around me. Sit and stare at the sky and the clouds and see the shapes and patterns and figures that take me away with them. I want to get lost in the moment and forget everything else that is happening around me. I want to feel deeply - truly feel the world around me. Feel the vibrations in the air. Feel the dream-like state that I crave is okay to get lost in when I am alone or surrounded by people. Know that the spirit in my is real. Know that the spirit is alive and real.
