Sometimes - Day 100

I want to give @d-pend a special shout-out and thanks for all of the work he has done in creating, organizing, and maintaining this 100 day poetry challenge. This has been an incredible journey for me and I honestly feel like it was a life saver. I am so grateful for the opportunity to bare my soul and to meet so many wonderful people along the way. This poem is dedicated to all my fellow poets who have impacted my life in this journey through their poetry, comments, and critiques. Thank you for traveling with me. Also a special thanks to @hr1 and @greetersguild for their support through upvoting.

Sometimes I just needed to speak
Having a voice helped make life easier to swallow.
Sometimes I needed a challenge.
And sometimes I just needed to think.
Thank you @d-pend

Sometimes I just needed to get lost
In lazy days and magical places,
Or hear an encouraging, heart-felt word
Of friendship and support.
Thank you at @zeleiracordero

Sometimes I just needed to get a bigger picture,
To understand the pain and loss
Suffered by all humanity
And feel the rawness.
Thank you @blessedben

Sometimes I needed to self reflect,
To meet my inner child
And revisit old trauma
Through the eyes of an adult.
Thank you @trucklife-family.

Sometimes I just needed to let my heart flow
In plain and simple truth
And receive the same
From an honest soul
Thank you @hartfloe

Sometimes I just needed confidence
To see the world differently
To accept the paradoxes of life
Through sound words of wisdom.
Thank you @theverve

Sometimes I just needed a thoughtful comment
To let me know I’m not alone
To help me see the empathy
And restore my faith
Thank you @mineopoly

Sometimes I needed a voice
Sometimes I needed a choice
Sometimes I needed to cry
Sometimes I needed to die
Sometimes I needed to soar
Sometimes I needed to roar
Sometimes I needed to dance
Sometimes I needed a chance.
Thank you all!
