Poetic Rising

Fierce Force 💃🏼

They tried to take me down,
I laughed at the sky
They tried to hurt me,
I said goodbye
They offered me lessons
I learned my why.

They made mistakes
forgive, breathe, exhale, sigh
I could have fallen
I didn’t die.

I stood up tall again
From a fetal position I rose
I’m exposed, naked on the page
I won’t hide and live disguised
I speak my truth
I share my wisdom
Lean into my lows
Expand in my highs
Thriving on life

Not merely getting by
Embracing ebb and flow
Not afraid to revise
My story
In my glory

My clarity is the prize
In awareness, I went and supersized
My best life
I grew from strife

Even when heartbreak cuts like a knife
I carry my pieces
That which doesn’t serve me releases

My self-love increases
I write through my growth “I’m worthy” is my oath
Dead lift my pain
Bench press my gains
Each day more sane
More open
More chapters
More spring in my step this spring

As I ring in this season
Self- love is my reason
Lead by example
Write by example
Share by example
Abundance is ample

I was set free
Of the heavy weight
Try to keep up with me
Don’t be late
For I am unfolding
A total remolding

For I am Fierce Force 💃🏼
Steering my own coarse!
Rewriting my story
Frolicking with my pen
Alive in zen
And even in chaos, or in calm
I walk these streets
I carry strong
Live in song
Nothing is wrong
It’s all supposed to be

Learn from me,
I promise you will see
Simply breathe
This is our reprieve

It took work to get this way
So much gratitude that I got to here today
So many blessings from community who say
I see you

And, guess what? I see you too

Do you feel this breeze?
This sun? These blooming trees?
FYI, this presence is on tap!
Help yourself if you please
It’s not just a tease
