When You Are at Zen

You once felt small 
Bound within invisible walls 
With nowhere to hide   
Yet still you held strength inside   

As your thoughts embrace sincerity
Your mind rests in clarity 

You grasp the beauty of life’s variety 

Exploring each moment to its entirety  

Ever moving toward serenity  

You guide your thoughts with ease 

Your mind at peace 

No doubt remains  

Confidence lights your way  

Empowers each choice you hold. 

With mind at Zen
Each moment blooms with meaning 

You embrace each change And master the thoughts within

The Mind is the Enemy

Words can say so much

Yet never reveal it all 

We hide our pain in silence

Vulnerable within our own minds. 

Thoughts drift 

Echoes fill the room

Focus starts to shift 

While yearning for light to bloom

As hope emerges

You find the courage

To turn each broken page 

And watch new strength rise and surge. 

Breaking through a mental wall

With light clearing the way

You find yourself in tranquility 

As serenity begins to stay

And quietly you rise tall.

After Night Thoughts

 A part of me seeks reassurance and validation 

Since words can heavily shift your mood

Which can put you at ease temporarily 

Yet you have to find your own peace 

Thinning myself short

Prioritizing others than myself

Realizing that it has become unhealthy

Continuously showed care to everyone 

Eventually taking a toll on my mentality  

Constantly thinking about a way out 

Whether it's taking the initiative to step away from media

Or distracting myself with social interactions or going out 

To heal the void in my mind. 

You are in control of your actions

Therefore live for yourself 

Rely on your strengths 

 To achieve your goals
