I Wish You

{Post: 343/365}

I wish you no harm

no ill will

no hatred

no sorrow

no pain

that you can't handle

I wish you no hurt

no damage

no broken hearts

no losses

that you can't rise above

I wish you joy

and friendship

love

companionship

gratitude

understanding

and compassion

for whatever

hurts you DO endure

and above all

I wish you

the power

the wisdom

and the journey

required

to find YOURSELF

she is much

that she can't even see

there is power

in every fiber

of her being

there is compassion

love

hope

wisdom

courage

and so much more

she is only beginning

to scratch the surface

of her heart

of her mind

of her soul

of the power

inside of her

she is the hope of her world

and it's destiny

she is it's protector

it's angel

it's guardian

she is not the first

will likely not be the last

and even when she fears

what she must do

she will find her way

she will be 

the wise guardian 

of the way

and that is only 

one small part of

Raina

and against

comes my way

can I find

the power

within me

to

change

can I find

the power

within me

to

choose

can I find

the power

within me

to

give

can I find

the power

within me

to 

grow

can I find

the power

within me

to

forgive

can I find

the power

within me

to

live

YES

I

CAN!

Why Must YOU

{Post: 248/365}

why must you

always

say out loud

the things I know

the words that are already in my heart

why must you

always

say out loud

the whispers in my soul

the nudges and reminders I need

why must you

always

say out loud

the things you say to spark me

and push me one step further

why must you

always

say out loud

the lessons I KNOW

the ones I am afraid of

I KNOW why you must

always

say out loud

the words you say

the words that engage me

I KNOW I must

always

answer the call

 dreaming in the flame

my power and passion renewed

I KNOW I must

always

answer the call

burning myself down to the ashes

and rising anew a phoenix

I KNOW I must

always

answer the call

and be inspired to embrace 

the light, the joy and the magic within me

You Have the Power

{Post: 180/365}

are you awake

and aware

or are you

asleep

walking through life

chasing things to do

making memories that will last

your lifetime

are you numb

do you remember everything

with clarity and sentiment

or are many things 

lost to you

as soon as they are gone

slipping through your fingertips

lost in time

will you remember them later

did they matter so much

or is it really

the people

you remember most

do your days blend together

same and yet different

full of nothing special

but a fleeting moment 

now and then

when you catch a glimpse of more

and understand

there IS more

it can be different

are you content

or are you asleep

you have the power

to change

to choose

to see

wake up and use it!
