poetic stream of consciousness
watch me fly beyond my edges — dash outside the lines
paint a mural of expansion — spiral upward undefined
see me cut threads of a loop wound tight around my mind
untangling knots of limitation — unshackling their bind
hear my voice ring out in victory as i rise up from the depths
see my spirit slash the chains i secured with my own grip
watch me swing open the door of the cage i’ve trapped me in
burn down all the fences i built to keep me in
see me shed old ways of thought — tear past patterns i once lived
break through a new timeline — emerge in brand new skin
watch me run beyond the border i drew with my own pen
breathe new air outside the vortex i’ve been spinning in
see me tear off scripted blinders — mute the battle hymn
un-write all of the verses i refuse to sing again
watch my ascent on wings of courage as I rise out of my thorns
soaring vast horizons — watch me be reborn
About the Creator
Kristen Balyeat
Words fly to me on the wind, bump me as I'm strolling the city, splash me in the face while I rest by the river, and shake me awake in the middle of the night—I’m humbly one of the vessels they use to come to life.
Also, i love you:)
