For the final day of National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo), below are a few words which I think sum it up pretty prefectly. A special thank you goes out to @ItsWanda on Twitter for inspiring me to attempt it this year! It was a tremendous refresher for my creative spirit overall, not just in the realm of poetry. Looking forward to doing it again next year!
___
RESTORATION COMPLETE
Creativity reawakened,
slumber interrupted,
hibernation over.
With well-placed words,
I denounce depression.
I decry public opinion—
still defy expectation.
With daily work,
I push through blocks,
I heal the hurt,
I change my world.
With open heart,
I steal the sky,
I drink the ocean,
I move the mountains.
Intentions reinstated,
assailants intercepted,
restoration complete.
