Hello, My Poetry and Writing Friends!
Hello, my poetry and writing friends! How are you doing? I hope you are well!
*
I hope you are being kind to yourself. It’s a daily journey of self-reassurance, where we need to remind ourselves that we are enough and we have a right to be here just like everyone else.
*
I hope you are also enjoying whatever season you are in. We are still in the middle of summer and going into another heatwave. It’s been a luxury to be able to go to the store because we get relief from the heat. Sometimes I don’t want to leave the car because the air conditioner feels so nice!
*
Summer will be gone before we know it; soon enough, it will be Christmas! That sounds ridiculous, but the way the stores push the following season, it’s hard not to think about it sometimes.
*
Today’s poem is about a blend of two different people, or at least a look from outside of time. I hope you enjoy it! Happy poetry!

~Thinking Outside of Time!~~Poetry~
maybe you should take some time
to look into the mirror
and realize just how unique you are
*
do you know why you are here?
*
and how amazing you truly are?
*
there is no one quite like you
*
did you know that I can see within
the shining eyes you are looking through?
*
I remember the day
we stood
locked in a gaze
and neither of us could
believe our eyes
*
we saw ourselves in one another
and it made us both realize
that we were a part of each other
bonded from the inside
I think of my best friend, Natalie, who passed away so long ago, and all of the heartache I have felt ever since. I write about Natalie sometimes and think about what things would have been like if she had never died. It’s a fantasy, and it’s one I like to be a part of.
*
It’s hard to miss our loved ones, but it’s something we all will experience eventually, so it’s good to have a release. Writing is a good release for me.
*
If you haven’t been writing your thoughts down, why not just give it a try and see what happens? It’s incredible what can happen once you start writing, and it’s like a mental and emotional release.
~Thanks for reading, and until next time, stay safe, and be blessed!~ 🙂
~Happy Poetry!~
