Inside Another Sky

handwritten

Darkness, clouds…of doubt they form
Mind, cluttered…no respite outside born
Hope, manifested…there is another sky⠀
Eyes, closed…dive through minds eye⠀
Love, compassion…in self restored

A poem about meditation, a practice available to all of us. Meditation allows us to find another sky, another ocean…another anything.

Look inside in order to find the beauty that at times we can’t see outside.⠀

Loathsome Words

handwritten

Release your mind, from all perception​
Gossip, a grievous form of deception​
Truth lost, through shadowed whisper​
Loathsome words, intent to shiver
Thousand stories, now told untrue​
Their legend…
will be forever askew.​

All of us have been affected by gossip and mistrust at some point in our lives. It is a large part of the society we now live in, and social media continues to be a main contributor. This is a reminder for us all to watch the words we speak of others. A reminder to speak only true and loving words of one another.

Asleep Inside For So Long

handwritten

Asleep inside for so long,
Never knowing where I belong,
Autopilot guiding through life,
Lucky not to be resting in afterlife.

Finally landed on firm ground,
Not many seem to be left around,
Walking the streets from long ago,
Only the ghosts from past that show.

When did it become twenty twenty?
Never knew years lost were so plenty!

This year has really taken its toll,
Still grasping to take back control.
Knowing that all happens for a reason,
Maybe this year is just a bad season,

Faith that the best is yes to come,
For negativity…
…I will never again succumb.

Why Have The Tears Run So Dry?

handwritten

Why have the tears run so dry?
For so long they have not been shy.
No longer they fall upon my cheek.
The clouds inside, filling as I speak.
Maybe the calm before the storm?
Will today, be the day to break at dawn?
Hoping for the cloudy eyes to give rain.
Letting go of emotions, before I go insane.
Tried to release with music and walk.
Now it’s time, for hiding alone in thought.
Brewing of storm, will not forever last.
Finally it will break, and quickly it be past.

Do you ever have those times when the tears are building up, emotions confused and you just want to cry but unable to? The feeling happened so many times before…the build up is hard! This is a poem about pain and to remind us to always remember that when we finally do release all the pain inside, we always come back stronger!

Feel Your Emotional Embrace

handwritten

No matter how strong you truly feel,
Some days or nights your pain will be real.
Don’t try to run, hide or bury it away,
As it will always catch up to you someday.
So take time for your emotional embrace,
Your feelings should never be lost in a race.

We all have those days where we can get caught up in our emotions. It can feel like we don’t have the time that we need to get through them, so they get suppressed and lost inside. However, they never get lost and we forever continue pushing them down. This is a poem about feelings, our feelings we hide. Hopefully it will remind us, that we all need to make sure we take the time we need to actually feel. To actually let go of the emotions, to be able to live our life free.

I’m Not The Man You Used to See

handwritten

I’m not the man you used to see,
Before inner ghosts were all set free.
No more haunting in mind’s sight,
Demons now all forgiven into the light.

So no, it’s not the man you used to see,
for this man,
this man now walks with his mind free.

When you finally battle and let go of your past, many do not always recognise who the new you might be. Trust that this is change and it is your journey to now walk with a free mind. A mind with no burden of who you once used to be.

Let this poem about change, help remind you that it is time to live your life…today and everyday!

Unspoken Stories

handwritten

Your autobiography defines your past,
A thousand stories in the mind they last,
Never scribed for others to empathise,
Only unspoken stories for all to criticise.

@the_wildwolf
reflection

Not all will hear your version of a story in life. The journey you have battled. That story is often only left to live in our mind and never shared. But even still, that is not a reason to allow yourself to be judged. Especially when no other person understands your true stories.

So please remember, it’s your story and there are always new pages left to write of your biography.

Skip Amongst the Tree

handwritten

Close your eyes, to release the wonder.
To see the stars, or across the deep blue yonder.
Allow the imagination, to live wild and free.
Let it run, and skip amongst the tree.
Release the Fairies, Pixies and Angel’s too.
Fly amongst the clouds, in a sky of bright blue.
Be the inner child, that still lives inside.
Forget the society rules…
…to which we are meant to abide.

Do you remember the bedtime stories, with all the hope’s and dreams of when you are a child? When did that stop? Do you still close your eyes in meditation and allow yourself to be free? You know, to be the child you once were?

This happiness poem about life is to give us a smile, to inspire us into our inner child. I ask you tonight to close your eyes, and take your mind wherever it wishes. Take yourself on a journey and try to remember those feelings. Try to release yourself, enjoy all the wonder.

Full moon upon us,
Let your inner wolf free, with all your might.
Release all that holds you,
Free your dreams, and step into the light.
