1/27/21 – Poetry

Posted on by itsjaimarie

I’m in a period of transformation.

I’m healing the parts of me that have spent years suffering

My inner child has been crying out for someone to save her

She’s battered and bruised

Sinking in an ocean full of tears

She’s gasping for air while trying to stay afloat

And I’m swimming, desperately trying to save her

I’m in a period of transformation.

I rise each day and meditate

I sit in a trance and for a moment I feel myself levitate

Energy flows through me and I’m at ease

I’m healing from shit I no longer speak of

I’m rising above what was sent to kill me

Cause if I let these demons I’m fighting win,

Who will be there to save the others?

And what will I tell the younger me when she asks why I never came back for her?

I’m in a period of transformation.

I’m somewhere between broken and whole.

Just trying to save my soul.
