A collection of poems

The wind was so strong, it was shaking me.
At first I fought back instinctively.
Fight or flight have always been the only options I seen.
Because I stay prepared for tragedies.
With fists clenched and white knuckles, just ready.
Fighting old habits and tendencies.
Right when I told myself to just let go and let it be, the wind became warm and started to hold me.
It hugged and held me, where human touch was missing.
It consoled my heart when It felt detached, from a soul who always had its back.
All the energy I wasted on being sad and angry.
I never stopped to allow myself to get lost within mother natures breeze, purposely.
I always tried to fight my way out of everything.
When those were the exact moments a lesson he was teaching.
Which may be the reason, the lessons I had to keep repeating.
Always trying to control everything except myself and the thoughts I kept receiving.
But there is a shift happening more, I am now feeling.
Its slow but things are changing.
If I keep tending to false beliefs and holding onto pain that doesn’t serve me.
I won’t feel the sun keeping me company.
Or notice the clouds playing hide n seek.
Or the wind caressing my body, and spirit so nurturing.
The flowers that welcome bees and pose for pictures effortlessly.
So many things I fail to see when I am in a state of fight or flight.
Which used to be 24/7 for me.
But lately, I’ve been grabbing all my worries and sending them to you.
As said in Psalm 55:22: “Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you.”
These were words I read before, but I never believed them to be true.
So now all my stress is postmarked to you.
I’d rather feel the wind, and smell the morning dew.
Then go through life feeling restless and discontent, all because I didn’t have faith in you.

    This is a positive energetic mic drop in the most calming grounded way possible. This just felt like pure sunshine. Absolutely killer good! Of course it’s 10/10. 🎤

    What I quoted above is definitely my favorite section of the piece with the last line in particular being my favorite line. That specific line I thought was creatively unique on your part as well.

    Most importantly, I’m very much glad to have ended my Friday night on witnessing such a wholesome and energetically joyful piece from you! All we have is each day on this earth, and that’s it. And that reminder, is making me all the more grateful for each moment, including this one. Coming here always leaves me with some slight tears with a smile on my face. And that’s the kind of stuff I live for! Keep on energetically having the right frame like you do here, and keep showing up (while maintaining the balance of pushing yourself and then being laid back) and even more will come to witness this incredible art. Let’s go! 🌞

      Thank you for everything and all the support. I loved the same line. I was watching the bees as I photographed the flowers and that line just felt right .
