There were days I wanted to kick the bucket, Stressed, Overdressed with depression, Thought I was a disappointment. I was on the edge, ready to jump. Once again you saved me, although I was acting dumb. You are always there for me through the weather, From the sunny days through the storm. A beautiful flower…

It’s night now 🌙
The moment I stepped into the room, it got silent. Usually anxiety would choke me, telling me that they are judging me, telling me that I’m ugly. This time I took control of my mind, I sat among my peers with confidence. I thought I was living in the dark, but I didn’t realized it…
Poem- “Sally want it, she got it.”
Sally looked in the mirror and saw all her flaws. She smiled and accepted her body, She won’t allow her dark thoughts to be her downfall. One more day, one more blessing. She could feel the anxiety creeping up on her, She quickly runs and drinks a cup of water. “I am strong.” “I am…

Poem: “That Man is hurting too”
I looked in his eyes,I could see his pain,He is hurting,So many scars on his body,He’s been working.

Poem: “I will continue to grow.”
I hardly get any water,but people don’t see that.They judge me from my roots to head,speaking how I looked withered.

But I was determing,I needed to survive,I arched my head towards the sun,I needed…
Poem: “Who the hell name Rejection?”
Ambitious is my middle name.I’m not going to stop until I finish this game, called “Life”.I’m not going to allow it to defeat me. Get up every morning, I look in the mirror,saying these three sentences I hope will stick with me forever,“I’m Beautiful, I’m Smart, I’m going to make it.”Cheering my own self in…
Poem: “She is crying for help.”
She is crying for help.. Am I the only one hearing her? I looked at her wrist, and realized that she fell in love with the razor. Horizontal lines.. Stretching… I can see the pain in her eyes.. A battle.. She is losing.. She is crying for help, But no sound.. If you look closely,…
Dysfunctional Family: “I want Mommy”.
Mommy, you remember when you used to love me? Cared for me? Prayed that I came home to safety, What happened? When I come home from school, you don’t even look at me…. You just drink from your bottle and start acting crazy. You make yourself feel better by disrespecting me.. Calling me names, saying…
