My Work
Below you will find an assortment of short poems I have written. Coming soon you will be able to purchase longer poems.
Childhood Wounds
Growing up I didn’t know what to do
When emotions snuck up on me or you
I guarded my responses and shoved emotions away
I started to hide my feelings because I didn’t know what to say
We all have experienced this before
We all have different childhoods, but the roots are similar at the core
I challenge you to explore what’s holding you back
You are courageous, don’t be discouraged and start to pack
I’ve done this before, hidden and ran
It didn’t get me anywhere, but on my face once again
I’m working on me, you work on you
We can become healthier working past childhood wounds!
Innocence
Children are innocent but life’s trials still strike
They aren’t immune to life’s difficult hikes
Unfortunately, many have to hike before they’re ready
They may not know how to walk and be steady
They have to learn how to survive very young
Often, they don’t know how to articulate with their tongue
The experiences they’ve gone through are difficult to understand
Why would that happen to the innocent at hand?
Though I don’t have answer, I understand a glimpse
The pain that comes with heartache that makes one wince.
Am I OK?
Am I crazy? I don’t think I’m OK
I feel like there’s nothing I can say
To bring attention to the pain I feel inside
My mind is swirling—why haven’t I died?
Trying to be real with others and myself
I’m not in a good place with my overall health.
Questions
High school is a time of many questions
Not many answers but secret confessions
Dreams crushed; identities shaken
Then college arrives, and passions are taken
Who am I, and what do I do?
A couple of questions I often thought through
