Darkness Tried to End this Life

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Memories come up from times when life felt so close to the edge.

Life seemed like something so close to the end.

A mind so cluttered, so filled with fear.

A body so riddled with substances and unbalanced from the chase of night and day.

Thoughts fading away, worries taking over, friends with two faces taking up too much space.

There were times of silence towards the ones who were closest.

There were moments of sadness that lasted for days.

Yet, beyond the darkness, through the silence, there still seemed to be some light.

Falling away…

Falling under…

Never too deep, but just deep enough.

Finally one day, tired of suffering…

A reach up, a crawl, a walk and a run, back to life.

Back to peace.

Yet, never truly to feel without the darkness.

A darkness that had the deep calls for the ending.

Though, the darkness is not meant to call upon us all.

Some must just taste it, to see why we must turn away.

Back to the light.

In the light we must stay, but never to forget the bite of darkness that will never fully go away.

Trust Yourself

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Everyday we face challenges.

Everyday we are shown that we must choose.

Distractions or facing the truth.

You know what you need to do in order to be okay.

Trust yourself.

Explore

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Explore the world.

Explore yourself.

Do all the exploring.

For life is but a collection of moments, and

When you see how quickly time passes by,

You will wish you had spent more time exploring and enjoying all the beauties within this life.

You are worth the time.

The Bridges of Life

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

There is magic in the journey.

We see where we want to be and we must let go of worrying how we will get there.

The bridges of life are not always for us to build, but they are a gift that we are guided to, that allow us to move from one chapter to the next.

We must not worry about how we will get to the next destination, we must only focus on visualizing where we want to go.

The journey is full of possibilities…

Remember to dream big, trust the process and have as much fun with it all as you possibly can.

Fading

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

Who’s turn is it, mine or yours.

The colors are running dry, the brightness is fading fast.

Age is growing older, time is ticking by.

Who’s turn is it, mine or yours, is it time yet?

The time is ticking by.

Colors fade, time ticks away, and all we can do is keep on moving with each flow of the motions of life.

Each flow, each motion, each tick tock of the clock brings us closer to the other side.

For each new day, each new lesson, we each get to sit and wait…

We take turns experiencing lessons as we wait and wait for each new day to come and tick tock on by.

There is no time, really.

It is your turn, surely it is not mine.

Every day that passes, I have had experiences that have lasted me days upon days that I cannot even remember my first name.

They call you by your last name, leaving you to wonder who you even are anymore.

Let’s start writing, maybe keep track of things, so we can see where all of this waiting is leading us to.

The days tick on by, a wind blows, a hollow sound goes through one ear hole and out the other.

Is there even anything that comes after this?

Shall we sit here and wait until the last drop of color has faded away and the clock runs out of ticks and tocks?

I surely don’t even know when it was that I last ran through a field without a care.

It would be nice to eat without the fear of there being little left to eat upon the next morrow.

We shall sit and watch as the clock ticks away and the sun fades and makes its way below the horizon, leaving the twilight sky for us to rest upon.

As we lay awake in wonder, we may, oh we may, dream upon the twinkling sky, that we may awaken upon a new day with the brightest of colors.

Oh to heavens we may wish upon that we may awaken to plenty of food, and for all the clocks to have faded away so we may run into the field and pretend we have wings.

A day full of joy, full of wonder and plenty of laughter.

Upon this start I do wish.

Thank you, until we meet again.

Exist

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

In a day, so much can happen.

Slow down and listen to the sounds around you.

Shut off your thoughts and just allow the sounds to be your existence.

Love and Hate

Posted on by Healing Creations PNW

You grew up in a world that was surrounded by confusion.

So many things seemed to be simple.

So many things seemed to be unobtainable.

You grew to think you understood love.

You grew to feel all too familiar with hate.

A mixed bag of things…

Hate vegetables, love video games.

Parents argued, hate your dad.

Love books, hate school.

So easy.

It’s all so normal.

Though, you felt lost and unsure, never really fitting in.

Seemed like life could be pretty easy, once you grew up to be over 18.

Yet, it didn’t get much better, more rules, less freedom.

You thought it might be different.

Thought it could be easier.

You wanted to grow up and be free, yet now you see it isn’t quite so easy.

What happened to all your dreams?

What happened to all those fancy things?

Didn’t you dream about becoming rich?

Didn’t you think it would be like the flip of a switch?

Wake up and you’re an adult, now the world will be yours to take…

Love and hate.

It’s a real battle.

Freedom and fate…

It’s like eating cake.

You don’t really know, until you grow up and find out…

That cake will now make you gain weight.

Now you also have to pay for that cake.

Then you have to run a mile, or two, to burn off that cake.

Being an adult, it’s not quite so easy, you see.

You thought you understood it all.

You thought you could live easily.

You thought life would be so simple.

Now you have to eat your vegetables and video games are a thing of the past.

Love and hate.

Now you know love is better, and hate is a waste of energy.

Being kind is a better use of your time, but it’s also overwhelming…

Being kind can make you seem weak.

Now you have to learn boundaries.

What even are boundaries and why are they a thing…

Let’s not even get into the complicated world of dating.

Men and women.

Men or women.

You really don’t even need any of that anymore.

It is really not an area you would enjoy to explore.

Time is ticking, and skin is wrinkling.

One day maybe there will be time to just exist.

No worries.

No fears.

No bills.

Not even a doctor promised happy pill.

Just a long moment to remember the freedom of being a child, without a worry about love or hate or anything other than… oh wait…

Let’s take a step back – it is not about love and hate.

It’s just about you.

You must accept your fate.

Dream big.

Find time to play.

Balance it all out.

Try not to stay up too late.

Life is what you make it.

Create it.
