Deep within, we may be petrified to learn

How others perceive us, in their own eyes

But, you know your worth, don’t let it concern

Remember who you are, and don’t apologize

In order to accomplish, what we value most

We must take pride in ourselves, to the letter

Tis then we are able, to walk about and boast

Now tell me, is there a feeling any better?

It Used to be Me – #poetry #pain

Why is it that the stars, can glow nightly?

But I easily burn out, exhausted, unsightly

My body dares me, to move about, quickly

Until the nerves become angered and prickly

Deciding I should, at last, just park it

Before something else, happens to spark it

Into a raging inferno, of liquid molten rock

When I look in the mirror, I see total shock

On a face I don’t recognize, how could it be

That the face in the mirror, used to be me

#FOWC, #poetry, belong, dorindaduclos.com, Fandango's One Word Challenge, Night Owl Poetry, self-worth, wandering souls, writing


We search our souls, though wander they may

Asking questions, as to where we belong

Seeking, to discover, perhaps, another way

Realizing, we knew the answers, all along

It is time that I
wrap myself in
silken threads
and slumber, not
for eternity, but
for a moment, until
I am no longer
an ugly creature
but one of beauty and grace
And I can spread my wings
and fly
