8/12/09 Entry 1: Poem 1

I have been inspired to share my poetry with the world. My dear husband motivated me to create a diary of poetry, day by day, sharing my experiences, thoughts, and feelings.

Here it is world, here it is:

Day 1: Entry 1

Stressed

Waking up from a dream that I cannot recall
I should be grateful, should give my thanks
I am awake, I am alive
breathing, living, waking
thoughts rush into my head
as if time is running out
I tell myself, one thing at a time
one breath, one step, one task

I feel like my body is shattering like a piece of glass
I need joy, need to smile, need to clear my mind
One thing worked for sure,
a warm shower, only me, no disturbance
It's now 9 a.m.
A new day with new experiences awaits me
and yes, I'm still stressed but breathing.

    I believe that writing in any form is really a stress reliever. Very nice poem...

    I really like how you put this poem together! It's truly fantastic. I'm so used to reading and writing poetry that rhymes, but this was an excellent change of pace. I'll be sure to check back for more of your poems! In the meantime, you should check out some of mine:
