I get confused, sometimes lost,
mixed feelings anchored inside.
Negative frequently tossed,
positive most often hides.
Emotions make me afraid
of all I hide deep within.
Cutting swift, like razor blades,
exposing my self-claimed sins.
Feels so nice to be on earth,
after escaping pure hell.
Also sweet to refind love
after hope tumbled and fell.
Sang a song opened ears heard,
lit the sky, moon, and the stars.
Flew so high, became a bird,
landed swiftly with great charm.
Life became sweet and sincere,
fed on love so pure and true.
Beautiful when visions clear,
since my eyes untangled views.
If fear ever comes for me
I will conquer it again.
Holding ease, embracing peace
inner light grows to extend.
– Grace Y. Estevez- Reddy
