Everything reminds you of it

Everything reminds you of it When everything reminds you of how sad you feel. What do you do? It’s like this nagging sadness that lingers in the background.  Everything reminds you of how unhappy you are. It’s so constant that you can’t even tell whether you still feel unhappy or perhaps you’ve become so used to it, like a dull aching pain. And so you start to feel nothing but everything all at…

Jaded

The absence of your love left me dehydrated. Your words all faded. Your actions outdated. It was me who made it out to be something so fated. So I recreated the love that migrated. Searching for the empty meaningless words that left me sedated. Yeah, I know I should have waited. Until your true colours outweighed the false empty promises you always created. And now, I’m left feeling jaded.

Like a flower, I rise

Like a flower, you rise again. See the flowers you stepped on? They rose back again. They’re not concerned with who stepped on them. They focus on getting back up again. The flowers sing when the sun shines, And they dance to the light. You’re a flower. Your beauty can never be stepped on.

The fire in my mind

Fire in my mind, I was engulfed by the fire. That was my mind, Started by my mind, In my mind, Drowning in it. I’m caught by the fire. Make my mind stop. But I can’t put it out. It’s burning me alive, And it’s keeping me warm. Oh, to fall in love with its flames

Blue you

It was once blue Now it’s turning into you The person everyone knew Stopped staring back at you You know the person in the mirror isn’t you But that’s what happens when you let yourself turn blue. Alas, a feeling I once never knew, now seems to be haunting everything I do.

Haunting Noises - trace of voices

Smoke the pain away Drown out all the days Fill my lungs with poison Get rid of the voices Haunting me, traces I cannot erase It’s the noises Killing me Pass me the poison Let me drown in its ocean Forget my despair, the intrusion Haunting So haunting, I cannot erase the noises

Healing takes time - but you'll get there

Healing takes time, but it’s all progress. Imagine you were building something, you lay the bricks and then take a break, and when you come back it’s still there. Just because you took a break, the progress won’t disappear. Trust the process and have faith.

Flowers will bloom

May flowers bloom in between the cracks of sadness that you bury so deep

You’re so cold

You’re so cold Maybe I should set the whole world on fire. Would that be enough to melt the iceberg that you’re holding so dear in your heart? What you thought was a tornado that would always spiral out of control, was merely your vacant aching heart begging for the pain to stop. Wishing someone would embrace the storm inside of you, make it stand still. Gently and softly. Can you not…

She wanted to escape the pain - poem

She wanted to escape the pain.   Look where it took her. All these years she’s been going insane. This trauma that won’t leave her brain She begged you to listen to her pain. You ignored her. Over and over again.  Look where it took her. All these tears you dragged out of her, forming an ocean, swallowing the world whole. Holding onto the weight of the world.  She lost herself.  And you…

Forgiving your parents for how they didn't love you

It can be so hard to forgive your parents for the ways they failed to love you. Especially when you come across people who make you feel like you’re so easy to love. So where did it all go wrong? Maybe they weren’t taught to express their love in a healthy way. Maybe they didn’t even experience love. It might be hard to fathom how a parent could be like that. Perhaps you grew up in a different…

The same pain

When people make you feel like you’re not a priority, You stop thinking you can count on them. You stop believing that they will be there for you. You stop thinking that anyone can care for you. Especially when this happens repeatedly, You start to think that no one cares about you or ever will, So you start to bottle up your feelings. Because, what’s the point of telling someone you’re…

Glimmer of happiness comes knocking on a broken door

FLOWERS GONNA BLOOM sometimes, I catch a glimmer of happiness, a sense of familiarity and nostalgia washes over me and I forget the sadness. It almost feels like the depression isn ‘t there and I’m myself again. In that moment, I feel like I can accomplish anything. Perhaps, it’s a sign I’m healing. I can almost taste life. I remember that there’s more to life. Something beyond the sadness and…

Waves of sadness

I can feel this pain that comes in waves. A high tide when I’m feeling low. A low tide when I’m feeling high. Never on the same page. I thought you could read me like a book. I guess the pages were already torn and ripped to shreds. And then along you came, and set it all ablaze.

Outer riches & inner poverty

“outer riches & inner poverty.” “To gain the world and lose your soul.” What really matters when all this is over? You can’t take money to your grave. When you strive to make your outer world more important than your inner world, you realise that your outer purpose (e.g. wanting to be rich, materialistic gains etc) cannot give you lasting fulfilment.

How to be easy on yourself when you need it the most

Today, I went to the gym and you know what I ate afterwards? Pizza. Yep, and you know what, it made me so happy and now looking back at the memory, I feel content. Because it’s not about the diet, it’s about the thoughts that are in your mind, especially the thoughts that go through your mind when you’re eating. The intention you set behind everything you do and how you view things. Now, I’m not…

The BRIGHT side of trauma - it’s about perspective 

You can choose whether to always feel like a victim to your past or choose to see the bright side.  You will turn out to be a great mother/father because of what you’ve experienced, meaning you’ll give your children the best life and all the love in your heart because you didn’t receive that yourself.  So if you had no childhood trauma and didn’t experience severe hardships and face things…
