To M

From J III

By Jaclyn Gilbert Published 5 years ago 1 min read

You set limitations on your imagination

While I reach to the stars to help heal the earths scars

I won’t stay bland it has been a long time coming, I’m empowered In this stance.

I used to write about others and the pain I felt but now I’m past that breaking point

And I won’t accept another’s finger who wishes to point

I won’t allow another to soak up my soul

It is up to you for yourself to feel whole

I dove through the motions while others cause constant commotion

Take my advice while you think about me another time,

Isolation was my only consolation.

From J to M
