She was running out of time

with only a copy of words left to write.

She quicken her typing to get it all done in time.

Without a minute to spare she hit the submit button.

And begun to relax and it sent her an email that it was successfully delivered.

She had worked so hard to get to this point that she finally realized.

she can’t let her doubt stop her from doing what she loves.

Today is a great start for something new for her and there is no time to waste.

Daily Prompt: Quicken

Poetry

There’s

something inside of me that is awakening this morning and it feels so right and it feels like home.

I’m on my way to seeing the bigger picture of who I’m suppose to be, I’ve thrown away all the things that made me doubt myself and made me crawl into the hole of darkness.

The darkness that seemed to control my life for so long that I couldn’t see the people who care for me.

But, that darkness doesn’t exist in my present as the light out shines everyone who doesn’t know the real me.

You see I used to be so broken that the pieces that were there won’t enough to keep me going and, as I fought to keep up this wall that kept the real me hidden.

It was failing so bad that pretending wasn’t option for me anymore and I had to act quick or I would be seen as weak and not in the right mind.

So I fought with all my might and I realized my worth didn’t depend on where I wasn’t in my life and what I wasn’t doing.

So yea I’m not doing what they say I should be but, I don’t care because I’ve never been in such a better place in my life.

There’s something awakening inside of me right now and I won’t trade it in for what you may be doing in your life.

For my happiness and well-being is more important to me, so back off for my ending will only end in knowing I did what I was supposed to do and if you really cared you support me no matter what.
