Stronger Today (revised)

Fragmented
stagnant-ness, it will
sleep behind
my pillow,
why can't my mind
rest
more than it does, and wait,
can I go
now, or do I have to stay?

Why can't I just go today.......................

My latest self-help book's
collecting
some new dust,
I read it,
because, at least, I think I'm trying
to bust
bad thoughts-needless,
kept them grown like weeds for
too damn long, they've sown bad seeds, and I don't think that I am needing them much more, I help them to find a door...

but why can't I let go today?
wait, I did,
I let those strays
out from the can
left behind
by my mind's own hand,
to follow in it's new duty of holding to beauty of
love and golden life...

Fragmented
stagnant thoughts, they might
linger by my pillow
but now I rest
and know my breath
will flow out the window
off and out into the street.....

gone

past fears, dumb,indiscreet,

for strong efforts never waste, despite strength they seem to chase,
they make me strong,
make me love strong,

stronger for today


and stronger
I face my day.....
much stronger,

bless my day...

Rose, I really love your writing...it seems to spring forth from the gritty realities of life, sometimes, the things we try hardest to hide from. Well done

Peace,
Dan

Nicely done, Rose. It flows and meanders like the mind caught in a loop, where breaking out of the loop is a knee-jerk. Really cool!

Lovely write coming from the vunerable side of you and releasing the negativity of the pain and loss.
