Last night I could not sleep
Dreams of hatred were on the streets
Violence
A divide
Racist speech
This is not a dream
A living nightmare
What will it take
To keep all those we love safe
Family
Friends
Coworkers
Neighbors
It is not an overreaction to assume such acts could take place
For it was not long ago
That these same mistakes were made
I beg of you
I plead of you
To recall
What happened when our ancestors remained silent
These same thoughts became words and then became actions
If we choose to repeat the past
Have we as humans really learned anything at all?
I rise with these scars like a phoenix from her ashes
Battles fought and won
Recovery made
Demons long gone
Light at the end of the tunnel
Has just begun
As Thomas Fuller once said, “The darkest hour is right before the dawn”
I beg you not to leave me alone with my thoughts
My mind and my demons from the past have become the best of friends
They taunt me and laugh
They take refuge in my body
Tormenting my soul
Please doctor, tell me how to rid this darkness inside of me
Recovery is to begin again.
Leave your religion at the door of humanity.
If I was normal, what a bore that would be.
My deepest regret with you was that I allowed your mouth full of lies to trick me into thinking they were the truth.
I could never fancy a man who could not take me for all that I am.
Little girls who are abused grow up to become Joan of Arcs of the world.
I’m your guardian angel
Never leaving you
No matter what you do
I’ll be here to help you through it all
I’m here to catch you when you fall
I’ll be by your side forever,
Comforting you when life isn’t fair
Believe me, I truly care
Together we’ll stand
When you get lost, just take my hand
I understand
When you’re mad or feeling blue, talk to me
I’m here to help you make it through
I love you
I’m your guardian angel
