Where Are You Going?

I am tough enough

I am strong enough and smart enough

this is a race worth running

I don’t know where I’m going

but I’m I’ll end up somewhere before I figure it out

and when I figure out where I’m going

then I’ll go

It can’t be that hard

It’s Dark Out There

The world needs someone like you

The work you’re doing on yourself

Doesn’t go unnoticed

It’s dark out there

It’s cold

But your light, even when it’s dim

Matters

It’s more than you think

It’s more than just a beacon

It’s an island

A shelter in the storm

It’s a rainbow a cupcake

It gets us through one more day

That’s why

The world needs someone like you

My Best

I’m showing up

I’m showing up even though I don’t want to

I’m showing up to get something out of it

Even if it’s a seed of hope

I’m showing up because of love

Because of purpose

To have something to believe in

I don’t want to show up

But here I am trying my best to love in the one way I know how

by showing up

♡Saschia

Usually Sometimes

Writing in and out of reality

Between memories

And into the depths of my psyche

Sometimes the narration is loud

But most times it’s silent

It’s usually us pushing and

Me typing one word at a time

To finally write a thing

If that makes any sense

♡Saschia

From inside my belly

I feel it

The agitation

The excitement

The hope for change and the courage to embrace it

My fingers wiggle to the music

a pain stabs my side

Thoughts scatter left and right then sink into my belly

This body so fragile

This mind so wild

I’m almost there

I can feel it.

Can You Connect the Dots?

It doesn’t matter where you start

Just jump in

You’ll start connecting something

Dot to dot

That’s all

Once you get going it’s amazing how many connections there are

So don’t be a toe dipper

Just jump in and start connecting

♡Saschia

Caring and All

I care about what you think of me

Of course, I don’t want to care

I want to write without a worry

Without the need for awards

Or fancy publications

I don’t care what strangers think of me

Or acquaintances

But you and I are close so I can’t help but care

It’s uncomfortable how my writing depends on your support

But whatever keeps these words comin

Whether it be love whether it be truth

I’ll keep showing up

Caring and all

Home

Family

The reason to keep going

Why I wake up early

And head to bed late

I love my family

♡Saschia

Heartbeats

From moment to moment

There’s these spaces in between

They are the heartbeats

The lifeline leading

From moment to moment

The repetitive beats are often disregarded

left to be automatic

But it’s not that moment you’ve been waiting for that’s so amazing

It’s all the beats that come together over time to make these moments breathtaking

Please Let Me Sleep

The house is quiet and cold

I’m too tired to push the keys

Too awake to sleep

Hoping for some relief.

Maybe sleepy sleep

Or to be awake enough to push the right keys
