A Small Selection of Poems from Built From Broken

The Art of Healing We are moving forward, creating anew; Together we rise and push through; Community surrounds me, my saving grace, Feeling the warmth of connection, I found my place. Through creative arts and poetry, my soul's pure release; In every word and creation, I found peace. In crafting and sharing I learned to let go, Transforming my pain into something to show. Each stroke of the brush; each line that I write, Guides me through the darkness and into the light. Together, we gather, our stories unfold, In the bonds of our hearts, we find the strength to be bold. Embracing our journey, new paths that we've made; One step at a time; Patience deeply laid. From ashes to blossoms, we take back our voice; On our journey to healing we celebrate our choice. With courage and kindness, we stand side by side; Feeling empowered, we'll no longer hide. Together we flourish, our spirits take flight; In the light of our story, we shine ever bright.

Counting on Us When my world grew colder, I counted on the light; Three heartbeats beside me, guiding me through the night. I counted on courage when fear gripped me tight; In the rhythm of hope, I fought with all my might. On National Poetry Day, in a national crisis too, What or who are you counting on? And is anyone counting on you? Our elders, our women, and those living in poverty's clutch; The vulnerable among us are counting on us so much! They're counting on warmth while politician's debate; While promises are spoken, their delayed action is too late! Those shivering in the cold, living below the bread line, Their voices silenced, without a sign; Their hopes crushed; dreams deferred; longing for a lifeline; While those in power discuss caps, they're left to freeze; They leave them wrapped in blankets shivering to their knees. I refuse to accept a world this unjust, Where those who built our country are left in the dust; I'm counting on you - on us - to stand tall, To break the silence, to answer the call, Remind the ones in power we will not fall. They're counting on our silence to soon fade, While I'm counting on change, on the noise that we've all made! It's time to stand up, raise our voices so loud! For the elders who built this country; For the women whose strength we should celebrate and be proud, Counting on one another, let's make them proud!

Counting Lives, Demanding Justice I'm counting on fingers as the weeks go by, Two women a week lose their battle to domestic violence and die. One hundred and one names Jess Phillips read aloud, Lives lost to the hands of their abuser; honoured yet still under a shroud. Counting the children that are in a refuge tonight, Sixty thousand souls in a tunnel searching for a light. From the darkness, they run, too young to understand why, Leaving behind all that they know without a proper goodbye. In shelters and hostels they find their reprieve, From homes filled with terror that leaves them no air to breathe. Counting moments where hearts beat fast; One in three women bear scars of abuse from their past. Counting the lives lost in the UK, so far, at the hands of men; 50 women gone, femicide's toll calls for justice again. One in five women are killed by an ex, even after they leave; Will there ever be peace? Or just more women to grieve? If each name, we remember is a pledge to ignite, The fire in our bellies, to rise up and fight; Counting on justice, for all victims somewhere, somehow, To hold abusers accountable, the time is now!

Walking at My Own Pace Today I walked amongst nature's embrace, A journey of solitude; walking at my own pace. Amidst the whispers of the trees and lakes' flow, I found the sanctuary where my spirit could grow. They all worry about me and judge, That I'll be left alone, On a dusty shelf, With a heart turned to stone; But I crave something pure, Something real and true; Anything less, well, that could never do. In the solace of nature, I discover my grace; Walking at my own pace. I refuse to settle for something that's not right - Only a connection that ignites my light. A moment to cherish in this tranquil place, Walking at my own pace. I'll wait for the one whose heart aligns with mine; In nature's company, the grand design; In this chapter of my story, I'll tell, Of walks in the woods, where my soul finds its well. So here I continue to roam, Hoping that one day I connect with a love that feels like home.
