In the Shadows of Blame

Break free with accountability In my heart’s dark abyss, I dwell The shadows of despair, like demons, swell Blaming others, my refuge from the night I bathe in weakness, dimming my light I dare not face the mirror’s stark reflection Seeking comforting lies, my soul’s protection In this dark cocoon, I choose…

A Place Once Familiar

Dance your way back to where you belong — In a room once familiar, you sit alone Like a washed up monarch on a dingy throne To a sense of dread, a memory’s cost For in this space, your past is lost The chairs, tables and pictures on the wall They offer no solace, no answers at all You search your…

Brown Skin, Gold Strength

Dignified from birth — In a world so cruel and blind to see The beauty in diversity, your soul’s decree Armed with your heart and courage so profound Amidst hurtful words on hallowed ground Gold is the color of this story untold A hue of strength, a spirit so bold When battered by prejudice, you rise…

Crimson Heart

A black stone restored by love In the belly of darkness, I stood alone Washed by the shadows, my heart turned to stone A life without purpose, a soul left to roam In search of a beacon to light my way home Crimson, the color, it whispered to me In its…

Steal Your Soul from Anger’s Control

Heal your body’s burden A volcano’s nectar is what you need In its clutches, you plant a harmful seed A tempest raging, relentless and wild Its toll on your spirit, lightyears from mild It festers and burns, like an unending flame Innocence lost, it bears no shame Your judgment is toast, your…

Be the champion of your life — Blaming others, my friend, is a path you tread upon when you allow the shadows of negativity to loom large. It is a whispered weakness, a refusal to embrace the truths that lie within us. You shy away from the mirror of self-reflection, unwilling to see your own hand in…

Prep Day #1 You are angry by choice. Once more… You are choosing to be angry. You are using power and control to preserve your angry. You are angry because you’re sad. You are angry because you’re scared. You are angry because you’re ignorant. You are angry because you’re lazy. …
