Bare soul.
Bare bones.
It has all gone cold,
In my heart of stone.
Faded away,
To dust and ash,
Carried away by the wind of the night.
Only darkness,
Only emptiness remains.
A graveyard of memories that once were happy days.

Walk with your head held high into the night, into the pain and into the light.
You are stronger than you feel you are, with whatever the suffering you may be going through, hold on, hold tight.
Don’t give up, don’t doubt yourself, be ready for the fight.
The battles may be long and enduring, but you will conquer them all.
Save yourself and free yourself and find peace amongst the chaos of it all.

Life is vast like the ocean, full of surprise and mystery both above and below the surface.
Sometimes we get carried away by the crashing waves and the storm brewing around us, thinking we are unable to make it back to shore.
We have to ride the waves and the seas of our soul, finding the calm and the stillness amongst the chaos of it all.
Anchor yourself with peace and love.
Slowly but surely the winds of wisdom and truth will guide us forward and to the shore again. 🌊

There will always be stormy seas, ups and downs.
There will always be darkness within the light, forever intertwined.
Just as a thunderstorm commands power but brings beauty, clarity and calm before and after; we humans experience the same in our emotional, mental and physical self.
The storm and the struggle may be rough, but it carries us through the lessons we must learn.
And the light is always there to guide us and show us beauty and wisdom in everything we do.

Sometimes the will to get up is the hardest.
The will to move is the hardest.
Even when your loved ones hold you up, the will to go on is the hardest.
The void seems to get deeper.
The darkness seems to get darker.
The demons almost win.
And you beat yourself almost to death for it.
But its ok, it happens in life.
Be kind to yourself.
Ride the waves and watch them as they pass,
As a new day arrives and a new dawn is here,
You will find a way.
You will be ok.

Sometimes life is black and white.
Other times life is full of colour.
It is what it is
And we take it as it comes.
Hazy and delusional,
Or clear as day.
Clarity from the demons,
And time to love and play.
Black and white,
Full of colours,
Life is both day and night.
– “Black and White, Full of Colour”

The mind is a paradox of both dark and light moments and thoughts.
Without the dark we cannot see the light.
Without the light we cannot learn from the darkness.
Both intertwined in perfect balance,
For our exploration of our inner soul and divine soul journey.

Weary
Hazy
Conflicted.
Damaged like a broken piece of china.
A beautiful mistake.
The aftermath of a cruel heartbreak.
Sorrow
Pain
Chaos
Always feeling lost and out of place.
– “Broken Chaos” – Jacqueline Ann Lente
Faded memories
Faded time
I can just remember when i used to call you mine.
But you left a scar on me that i can not forget. A scar on me that i can not shake.
All the emotions of love and happiness, pain and sorrow intertwined.
How you made me feel is what still lingers here;
You brought me up to pure bliss
and pulled me down into the dark abyss.
Our story is one that goes all around.
We closed that chapter of our lives and started a new
But you left me hanging in the end, with unanswered questions and an empty heart, a lonely bed.
You still linger in my head.
The scar never fading, and a new perspective on love, life and change.

Break Free.
Break Form.
Do not conform,
To the unstable society,
Full of lies and fake belief.
Do not become a robot,
A part of the 21st century working machine.
– “Break Free, Break Form” – Jacqueline Ann Lente
Hold me tight,
Bring me escape.
The shadows of the world fall too heavy upon my face.
I feel so out of it,
Like I don’t belong,
At all in this place.
– “Bring Me Escape” – Jacqueline Ann Lente
Patience, perseverance.
Strength and love;
Hold close to your heart
In times of struggle and when times fall apart.
Wisdom and knowledge will bring you closer to the truth.
The real reality in everything you do.
Observe with clarity and perspective,
Day to day.
And grow in the light that leads the way.
– “The Light That Leads The Way” – Jacqueline Ann Lente
My dear, I know the mind can get messy as emotions are all jumbled up.
But your soul is still beautiful,
Your heart, still strong;
And your spirit still flows wildly with every passing day.
The darkness is the truth in reality,
Sometimes it’s the bittersweet knowledge that we come face to face with,
That brings us to clarity and understanding.
Although the journey can be tough and troublesome,
The universe is guiding you to the right way to live a full life and be free.
Find your peace amongst the chaos and hold on.
All the pain and struggle are worth it in the end.
– “When The Mind Gets Messy” – Jacqueline Ann Lente
Darkness consumes me.
Darkness welcomes me into its sorrowful lair. Holding me there, captive with my thoughts. Crashing together wildly and with no control.
The pain is heavy and hazy.
The weight of everything, everyone and everyword heaped upon my shoulders.
Pain shoots through my whole body, the kind of pain that touches the soul; that tries to weaken the spirit.
My journey is not easy and my mind sometimes is unforgiving.
My bones crack, my muscles ache, my head foggy from lack of sleep. My eyes tired from looking into the abyss of the night. Unable to shut off. Unable to dream a sweet sleep.
