Michelle, I cannot believe it has been a year since you left us far too soon. π
Iβm grateful to have called you a friend even though it wasnβt nearly long enough. I miss you, my friend.

Loss
Some people leave an
Imprint on your soul.
Even when they're gone
They continue to be with you.
Indelible marks
That influence you.
Tattoos of them
Left in you.
Their light continues
To shine on.

Good morning to you π
I'm grateful for this new day π
Hugs to all of you π«

Alive
I am still alive
But not living.
Trauma has robbed
So much from me.
I am still alive
But thatβs not enough.
When can I thrive?
When can I have
An actual life?
Trauma still rules me.
I donβt feel like myself.
Trauma stole my life.

I injured my back in a bad fall in March 2000. Almost 25 years! I suffered a lot with my back after the year+ recovery.
My back tends to go out when I have a foot issue so Iβve been *extra* wary since dealing with multiple foot issues the past 1.5+ years.
I worked from home 6 years ago because of my back + MacGyvered a standing desk for myself. I wrote this poem thatβs still relevant:
I'm trying my best
To remember gratitude
While in constant pain
πππ
Anxiety girl
Came for a visit last night
I am exhausted
My foot hurts
This is my eternal song
My foot hurts
One day I will walk again
One day, one day
One day I will walk again
One day, one day
Stop judging others
Stop judging yourself as well
Less judgment, more love
πππ
Sending out all the good vibes into the universe. Take what you need and pass it on.
Oh, and some bonus hugs!

I Am The Key
It was never a lock
I had access the whole time
I just did not know it
What I crave is within me
So I can access it
And tell myself what I long to hear
I matter
I am enough
I am worthy
I am loved

1983 me:
La-di-da
Stop laughing Trevor (Trevor snickers)
La-di-da
I know itβs nice weather
La-di-da-di-da-di-da-di-da-di-da
If you like Sesame Street,
Youβll like my feet
If you donβt, youβre gonna eat the snow
But it ainβt snowing outside right now
I just wanna go outside and milk my cow

This song I made up as a kid has been playing on the radio station in my head all day + making me laugh

1983 me:
My name is Mr. Handyman Candyman
I love to play in the sand with all the kids
We make mud pies
And then we tell lies
About our parents
Eating cottage cheese
La-la-di-da-la-la-di-da
My name is Mr. Mr. Mr. Whatever
La-la-di-da-la-la-di-da
We tell lies about our parents
Eating cottage cheese
