Written by Phintly and HastyWords
It seemed as if the world exploded
A billion scattered thoughts cascading
Into a vibrate kaleidoscopic of color
Trapping me in an ocean of artistic expression
Holding me steady when consciousness fails
Grasping for answers
Only to come up short
I settle into a peace of unknowing
Reveling in this new found space
Seeing myself for the first time
I boldly decide to face my reflection
Scrutinizing every emotional flicker
Anger, sadness, jealousy swim like sharks
Around islands of love and patience
In the green blue sea around my pupils
I let it all pour out of me
A wave of all that I am
Crashing into those I keep near
Some struggle to stay afloat
While others swim along with ease
This is who I am, who I always was
Making peace with all of me
Was the thing I had never done
Acceptance finally stayed for a visit
Now I am left with the person I will always be

This was my first time ever doing anything like this, a poetic duet, but it was so fun and easy! Much thanks to my friend hastywords for encouraging me in all of my writing!

I rarely re-read poems because I believe they have the spontaneous first touch…but I so madly loved this one that I didn’t just read it twice but for a full third time.. 🙂 stupendous 🙂
