Stop Suffering

Emotions are fickle…

They’ll trick you…

Subtly creeping into my mind as I try to find,

The peace I need to proceed.

I breathe..then release. 

It’s hard to trip on what’s behind you and,

When those thoughts come and find me,

I, think of how I likely

Cause my own suffering. 

Because not all holes need digging…

And depending how I’m feeling,

I’d, allow my mind to wander and ponder

Replaying things in my mind

That were meant to be watched once

Every detail, even the small ones

That I don’t need to remember…

Stop suffering,

Stop wondering,

Stop searching…stop lurking 

And focus on the peace in the moment

The, moments you’ve chosen…for yourself

To release and allow for objects that appear,

To be closer than they are in that mirror. 

To fade into the distance…

No reminiscing. 

No, holding onto things that bring you into

Ditches that you, know are hard to get out of. 

Stand tall, and be proud of,

The fact that you’ve made it this far. 

And even if you sit still, and life is still buffering

New seasons loading, when you stop suffering.
