Stream of thought

Sometimes I write poems without spending a lot of time trying to make them perfect. I just let it out and put down what's in my head at that exact moment. Those are some of my favorite poems that I've written. The human mind is a beautiful gift that I am very grateful for. 

I wrote this poem yesterday. I had a lot going on in my head and decided to write it as it came. I had gone on a hike earlier in the day to let off steam and was amazed by the beauty and peace that I found in the mountains.

Listen to your heart
Stop searching for the answers in the dark
I’m feelin like I’m lost
Didn’t realize hesitation had a cost
Life’s too short to say goodbye
But I guess I’ll have to try
I’m not who I used to be
But still not quite the whole of me.
To trek the mountains, trek the sky
Make me stop and wonder why
The world seems to move so fast
Just want the view, moment to last.

  1. That's a beautiful poem and picture. Your poems have a theme don't they? It seems like the more confidence a person should have because of their talents and abilities and gifts the less it turns out they really do! If you saw yourself from my vantage point you wouldn't ever feel insecure again. I know I'm "just your mom" but I know to much about you to blame it on that. You need to accept what God has blessed you with and start using it. Love you.
