Eleven Words - One Poem: Elfchen

[EmmaDancing]

Done.
I breathe
In then out.
Is this how death
Feels?

 

[rainy_daze]

Feels
her way
through the trees,
to notice the beautiful
Forest.

 

[MissKB]

Forest
Tall trees
Don't get lost
Shadows are all around
Frightened

 

[rainy_daze]

Frightened,
so I
begin to use
grounding skills. I am
Present.

 

[digger]

Present
Wrapped up
In pretty paper
With a ribbon round
It

 

[EmmaDancing]

It
Feels strange
To be happy
When you're used to
Sadness.

 

[rainy_daze]

Sadness:
It may
try to convince
you that things are
Unbearable :eek:.

 

[digger]

Unbearable
This voice
In my head
Is way too much
Sometimes.

 

[rainy_daze]

Sometimes,
but not
all the time,
I trust my gut
Instincts.

 

[digger]

Instincts
Take over.
Still as stone.
Quiet as a mouse.
Freeze.

 

[Kintsugi]

Freeze
The fresh
Crop, lest it
Spoil and go to
Waste.

 

[digger]

Waste
Of time.
Smash the clocks.
Drain the hourglass of
Sand.
