Awesome, and very relatable.
Actually, I was telling Del earlier that I want to work on something called “Book Of Scars”. Looks like you beat me to it! Maybe I will, still. But I don’t know if I can not be influenced by your write here. That’s okay!
I had some “issues” when I was a kid. But, as I got older, I realized that I would indeed outlive the demons. And I have. I am extremely mentally tough, for whatever reasons. Yet I do have a part of me that still feels the good out there. Perhaps that is why I enjoy your writes as much as I do. It’s real and easy to relate to.-
The Rattle the Bones series is something I felt I needed to do…for me. I’ve shared bits and pieces of my trauma, but I’ve always been careful to not share chronologically. It’s time to “tell my story” from the beginning, in order. I can’t say it was a pleasant experience, writing and sorting it all out, but it’s done. I can’t share them all at once, so it’s gonna take some time to get them out in the atmosphere. I’m glad to hear you’re considering writing your story. I don’t believe we’re strong because of our trauma, I believe we’re still here because of our strength. Not everyone makes it out intact. If there’s one thing humans share unilaterally, it’s the experience of pain. Write your series, I’ll be here for it

Powerfully penned, Willow. Another excellent write with lots of layers, but also wisdom and guidance my friend. Using one’s voice to heal instead of lashing out.. Hit me like a bag of sledgehammers with this one. The letter format was a cool choice that fit the vibe and your musical accompaniment is precise. Below is the part that struck a chord inside me. Amazing read/listen as always. Thanks for sharing your story.. Appreciate you, Sis.

“your voice is your strongest weapon
I know the urge will be to finally lash out
don’t
use it to heal…
to share how you feel…
you’re not alone
trust me…
I know
with all my love…
me”

This was a piece that I wrote for a challenge on the old site, write a letter to your younger self. It eventually went on the cover of my book. I think there’s power in knowing how strong your expression is. With power comes responsibility. Use it with compassion and understanding. It’s a very healing way to use one’s power, I think. Thank you, bro. I’m glad this one resonated

I love this! Writing letters to ourselves is the most authentic poetry in my opinion.
Sometimes we write to find others who can relate but sometimes it’s meant for ourselves – to find our own sense of inner peace, self worth, all of it.
Again, I love this.
Keep on keeping on chica:)

I meant the person in the poem’s completion was not satisfying as they would have liked it. I should have explained that better. I’m sorry
