DO IT NOW
Contessia, Friends of Guest House, May 22, 2020
DO IT NOW…
Dont run…
always two steps behind..
now im trapped…
in my mind…
end is near…
do i keep trying…
stop asking if im okay…
no more lying..
fake mask is heavy…
eyes cant hold back..
mind has won…
done living in the black..
DO IT NOW..
NEXT IN MY LIFE..
I will fight my demons…
i will win..
i will remain focused…
until the end…
helping others..
always my goal…
future look out…
im on a roll…
my kids are happy….
I am proud…
i will let my laugh be heard…
very loud…
DO IT NOW…
dont run…
the future is all to fun…
two steps behind..in my mind…
NEXT ill reach my goal…
NOW do i keep trying?..
Next ill be smiling..
NOW my mind has won…
NEXT ill take back control…
get back on my roll….
NO longer tired of trying…
my future is brightening…

Make of Me
Aimee, Contessia, Tarkeshia, Chazcie, Ayla, Candace, Friends of Guest House, May 7, 2020
Make of my mind a fertile field
Where I cultivate beautiful ideas.
Make of my mind a calm sea
Where I can find me.
Make of my adventure
Where I go to explore.
Make of my life a beginning.
Make of my journey
So I can travel the right direction.
Make of my essence for
It is ready.

Within…
Contessia, Friends of Guest House, April 30, 2020
When I look within I see
The deepest part of my conscious.
I see the Twisted thoughts.
The Monsters that keep me up.
Screaming late into the night.
I want to understand the intricate, fragile design of my mind.
I want to hear my Demons.
Whispering in my ear.
I want you to hold my hand.
As they tear me apart.
So I don’t feel alone.
Even in the Dark.

AT BAY..
Contessia Bosserman, April 16, 2020, Friends of Guest House
I speak to my pain,
how long can you keep the great sadness at bay?
Pain answers, until you can overcome it.
i whisper to my curiosity,
how have the waves not drug you under?
Curiosity simply answers hope.
Then i ask will there be a pocket of air underneath the pressure of the sea?
Light is above the water and you must reach for it.
