Reclaiming My Life

And someday,

I'll find my peace, and be proud on my own

It is now your final hour

I am taking back

My power

Dear Girl; Dear Woman

Flushed
Freckled cheeks
Framed by curls
-kept wild to
collect dandelion fluff-

I am

an artist witch,

with a black bear patronus I am

an ally for alliteration

created to create!

The Fire Rose Above My Head

Life or death may snatch you in an instant

Without asking permission

What can you do in a forest

With flames above your head

But surrender…

You were, I am

Little one. I feel you in my bones. I hear the thunder behind your silence. You are not forgotten. Your presence is like a fire that shoves me forward. I remember you often.
