Have you ever done a send me a song on any of your social media accounts? I did sometime ago and a friend sent me You Say by Lauren Daigle. I wrote this while listening to the song. It was one of the songs that helped me through the previous year. Most of my joys and pains are put into writing. It's the only way I know how to express. The link is at the bottom of the post. I hope it finds you well.
I found my voice
Amidst cracks and patches,
Croaking in the beginning
Like a frog in a dirt puddle,
Wiggling it’s weak tail.
I found the words
Amidst debris and stones,
Written in unclear letters,
Hidden under the soil,
Waiting for me to come through.
I found my feet
Amidst sore joints and muscles,
Struggling to stand upright
Like a new born.
Falling without aid.
I found them
Amidst worn boots and jeans,
With holes on each pair,
The threads and pins sitting beside them,
Waiting for me to stitch them up.
I found my strength
Amidst feeble muscles and sinews,
Stretching warily in the morning
Like an old chair,
Creaking when stepped on.
I found it
Amidst lost hope and dreams.
Each looking me in the eye,
Pleading in mockery,
Daring me to make a move.
I found my pen
Amidst shredded books and rat faeces,
Dusty and rotten with age,
Like an abandoned castle
Covered with cobwebs and peeling paint.
I found it
Amidst weak papers and smeared ink,
Splattered as if on purpose,
Blurring the letters and numbers,
Awaiting my arrival.
Very amazing article dear
