The Problematic Poet - by habakkukmum

 
A commentary on the struggles of abuse survivors and my battle to function while fractured and living in a broken world.

Becoming Me

January 24th 2012 05:15
A new chapter
written in verse
life unfolding
can't rehearse

spread my wings
learn to fly
stutter step
another try

life is fragile
life is short
life was once
my last resort

but now I see
that there is hope
for life beyond
the world of cope

the skies are open
and in plain view
is a life to have
that i never knew

so eyes wide open
head held high
wings are poised
I'm ready to fly!

Alone

January 22nd 2012 04:36
Alone is not lonely
Alone can be free

Alone is not scary
Alone is just me

Alone in my thoughts
Alone in my room

Alone is a comfort
Alone is a womb

Alone as i entered
Alone I will leave

Alone we feel love
Alone we grieve

Alone with just one
Alone with just me

Alone I am whole
Alone I can see

Alone i can feel
Alone I can think

Alone I can dance
Alone I can stink

Alone is no 'sorry'
Alone is no 'please'

Alone is pure freedom
Alone a release

Alone was a foe
Alone was my fear

Alone is now friend
Alone is now dear

Alone is now safe
Alone is now fun

Alone is not lonely
Alone is just one

The Other Me

August 19th 2011 04:02
The other me
writes poetry
so she can share
what i cant see

the other me
holds memories
so she can hide
the pain from me

the other me
longing to be
part of the whole
known to me

the other me
i will not free
for fear the pain
will destroy me

the other me
a part of we
longs to know
her place to be

the other me
is one i flee
content to have
a me, not we

the other me
cannot yet see
how much it hurts
to be a we

the other me
must wait and see
if i survive
and make we, part of me.

So many questions inside of me

Courage

July 2nd 2011 03:43
It isn't facing your fear,
It's just refusing to run.
It isn't a feeling
