FREEFALLIN’.

Fast.
So fast.
Beyond the elements.
My heart’s thumping loudly.
Taking in gulps of air as I gasp.
Falling.
Freefallin’.
Hitting the clouds like a pillow
after a long day.
Seeing the beautiful surroundings.
Taking my breath away.
Swaying & swirling
through the air like a leaf in the breeze.
Life has it’s struggles but you find ways to
put your mind at ease.
As I’m placed down slowly, upon my bed.
Feeling fresh & a clear view of everything kept in my head.
Don’t take for granted even the simplest things that make you who you are.
Only look back at your journey to see how far.
We are all human.
Mistakes are there for us to learn.
Kindness is priceless.
Harvest that precious gem.
Go back to that moment.
Floating freely.
I wake up from a dream as if I’d just been laying down on a bed of feathers.
I’d bottle that feeling in a second.
Falling.
Freefallin.
Nothing should be too much.
Nothing should be too far.
We try & try again.
Until we hopefully land amongst the stars.

MORE THAN YOUR MIND.

I’m cracking beneath the surface.
Paralyzed by these things
that try to control me.
We won’t live in a world where everything stays on an even keel.
Life will always have it’s surprises.
A moment to steal.
Emotions will be scattered.
Leaving you wondering how or what to feel?
Why does this overwhelm me?
Why is it that important to overthink?
Pushing it right to the very edge.
Needing to be pulled back from the brink.
So quick to believe the negative thoughts.
Giving into fear.
Feeding it the poison that it needs to thrive.
You are much more than the darkest parts of your mind.
You are loved.
You are special.
You are not defined by all that has been.
You are beautiful inside & out.
Scream it. Shout it. So everyone can hear exactly what you mean.
Take back your power.
Leave them with their judgement,
That’s fine.

Hi, I'm Catherine. I love to write, mostly my own poems. Something that grew from a young age into a passion that I now proudly get to share with the world.
