Be Like Noah

You have to deal with it

Real life

You can’t push it down

Or sideways

You gotta simmer in it

Let it boil your blood

Be emotional

Be strong

Fall apart

Do all those things

But don’t try to avoid the pain

We’re all in pain

That’s how we know we’re alive

Use it as a vessel

When the waters pour in

Build yourself an ark

My Values

I understand

And if I don’t because I’ve never been there I hear you

I hear your pain

And your reasons

I will take time to think what it must be like

I will because I have to

I have to because that feeling of not being understood

That feeling of being the one no one wants one your team

I know it

I lived it

And I hope to God that I never make someone feel like I felt when I was so alone

And if I have I’m so so sorry

♡Saschia

Distant

It’s becoming a distant place

A fire burns alone

Warming only the rug

The rug stained from dinner

And Netflix

The door so familiar, cracked a pinch

And the walls are stuffed full

With scents of home cooked meals

And baked cookies

Not at the tips of my fingers

But it’s there I know it

♡Saschia

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

❤ Saschia

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

♡Saschia

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
