I spend my days
Considering new ways
To hurt my heart
So I can feel something again

Even the silence is filled with all the echoes of everything we are trying to run from.

I’m done fighting against the storm.
I’m saving my energy for the rainbow.

-britt powers
@musings.of.a.she.wolf

I’m still learning to accept
that I will always feel things
a little deeper and a
little heavier
than most

You are still here.
You are surviving.
That is enough.

Life will bully you into submission

If you let it

-britt powers
@musings.of.a.she.wolf

For some odd reason
I can't imagine myself happy

I don't remember how it feels
I don't remember how to do it

I can't help but wonder
Who will make me feel again?

Will it be me?
Or him?

-britt powers
@musings.of.a.she.wolf

Perhaps I'm trying too hard to make this my path

When there are other roads available to me

And I have all the time in the world to walk down all of them

They say
People will come and go
As they please.

But the truth is
People will come and go
As long as you let them.

I found my voice
Finally
After all this time

And yet here I am
Worrying about when he will
Tell me to shut up

You are the "big bad"
in the story of my life.

The issue is that I forgot
I'm the writer of this script.

My once capacious mind
is now full of hard truths

I cannot help you
you cannot love me

And we will continue
to hurt each other

@musings.of.a.she.wolf

I hate that feeling of being trapped inside my own body.

Different energies and emotions vibrating inside one tiny vessel.

How does one begin to live
while caged?

-britt powers
@musings.of.a.she.wolf

It scares me how much his presence in my life calms me down

To bring stillness to a restless heart, now that's magic

I'm back in that fluid space
In between walking away
And staying forever

I know what is smart
I know what I want

And they will never
Be the same option.

Looking for the answer
Should I go left or right?

Someone give me a sign.

A year ago

We were in the same place
Just a different time

We have not progressed
We have stood still

And now it's only a matter of time
Until we flatline

I'm stuck in my head
I can't get out

I hope one day you know
I tried
I really tried to get out

I used to be able to write when I was sad & now you've taken that from me too
