Make of Me

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.

 

Belonging

Belonging

A group poem written by Aimee, Contessia, Chazcie, Tarkeshia, Friends of Guest House, April 30, 2020

May you love yourself despite the fear.

May you find the courage to stay alive.

May you find the meaning in your life.

May you find belonging.

For you do belong.

When i look within

When i look within

Tarkeshia, Friends of Guest House, April 30, 2020

When i look within

I see a very humble, happy, and compassionate person

who has been through a lot of hardships in her life.

I no longer see broken, beaten and bruised woman

who didn’t even realize her existence.

Today i see that woman standing stronger

through all adversities and living life

on life terms like normal people do.

I’m grateful that, that woman i see is me.

The Voices in my Heart

The Voices In My Heart

Chazcie, Friends of Guest House, April 30, 2020

as my mind flows, l can hear the voices

they whisper in my heart

and as i see them

they tell me

don’t give up

follow your dreams

love will find you

stay positive

your life will be

filled with joy an understanding

embrace the voices

follow them

for they will lead you to ultimate bliss

-Chazcie
