Reflections

I look and ponder upon the reflections of the pieces you left behind.

Devastated by the silence inside.

Taking time to breathe deep and wondering if this is the end.

Is this all life has for me?

Is this the portion of my reciprocity?

Time and time again,

I reflect and pray for this journey to end.

The end of defeat, and no more pieces, but whole and complete.

Wondering if I will ever grow to the place past before.

I travel in my mind and deep within, trying to search for my place on earth.

Where I’m I going?  What’s in store for me?

What’s my purpose and my ultimate destiny?

The questions flood my head.

I want the silence to overpower the noise, because then I don’t have to understand the void.

I awake out of this dream internalizing my inner voice that screams for freedom and peace.

We journey along this path always reflective of things we don’t have.

I quench my curiosity through exploring all of the possibilities.

Can you see me?

Why do you ignore the sound of silence and my tears flooding the floor?

I pick myself up and breathe deep, reflections of a silver lining coming through.

I’m what my thoughts create through the clutter in my mind.

I stand up and take stride.

I will not succumb to this mundane world, but I will conquer my fears and leave my footprints on earth.

Deep passion bubbles from within, and I decide I will win.

Reflecting on how I want life to be and my victory is determined by me.

Stop the pondering and get on your feet, no this one won’t end in defeat.

Overcomers are what we are, and change your mind and you can go far.

Reflect on things that bring change and if you don’t like your story just change the page.

No I won’t leave you in despair there’s victory at the end of the game.

The players are meant to be played, just bench the powerless mindset you embrace and get up and play your best game.
