I think and feel too much, I think I love too hard,
I feel pain I don’t speak about, I think about the future but sometimes feel there won’t be one,
I feel disconnected, out of touch, isolated,
I don’t think they care, only a few make me feel,
love is a possibility, I loose myself in those pockets of time,
I feel free until I think of time, time away, time lost, time left, time wasted feeling helpless,
I feel strength when I think of my God given gifts,
The family and friends I fight for and my faith in the power of GOOD
I think about you in times when others only think of self,
I think my feelings make me unique,
I can still feel your touch and smell the sweet scent that only diligent self-care produces,
I think what if, I feel good things come to those who wait,
but think what if I allow my moment to forever slip away.
I think I’m on the right path and feel guided by a higher power,
The trials feel endless but each one conquered feels euphoric,
My story is far from over, this I know…
