Am I

 To pause because of you

Or am I to move forward because of me.

So much is going to change and I’m looking forward to new beginnings.

I know that as the year ends the lord has guided me away from things I thought I needed and towards things that will teach me something new.

It’s time for me to not settle for the path that feels safe because I know what I am doing and everyone appreciates what I have done so far.

It’s time for my light to shine somewhere else because it’s ready to shine for more than me.

This journey

I had to take on my own 

to find what I had lost along the way. 

The pace was slow and steady

for I had nowhere to be.

No one to impress or

worry about.

This was my time to finally find out what was

really out there waiting for me.

Even now as I am back and things

have not changed much. 

I know I can handle it all being thrown at 

me even when it hurts and leaves a scar. 

I will still hold up my head and know that 

I made it through it all at the end with some happiness shining 

down on me again.

Dreams

are all my body and mind crave for as my body hits my bed.

My mind wants to experience something new every night.

To let everything that happened to me earlier in the day to fade away.

To gain a little of my sanity back and for my mind to relax for once in my life.

For my body to relax and let all the stress of today wash away.

As my eyes slowly close and I’m drawn to the things that make me feel careless.

Soon my eyes will open and I have to face the day ahead of me and, I’m glad that everyday I don’t have to do it alone.

Weekend

What do you mean to me

a time to relax and get lost in a book.

To laugh and enjoy a movie or two

To stop thinking and just let the day go by.

To have fun and let loose the stress of the week

from my shoulders.

To truly breath for once since the demands of beginning of the week.
