Peace of Mind


Poetry is the light in Darkness

Poetry has taught me to express myself on my darkest days.

Poetry has taught me to control my emotions and listen.

Poetry has taught me to love myself when I couldn’t look myself in the mirror.

Poetry has helped me follow my heart and find the message within.

Poetry is like the mother I never had

Who listens and takes away the pain

Poetry helped me hold onto my sanity and be free from the burdens of life.

Poetry has helped me embrace the future and let go of the past.
