About Ray'Elaine

I am a author I love to write/blog and be myself. I have so many great ideas can't wait to share!

Starting over.

When you are down and out and have lost everything. Lose people or anything that is close to you. Lose your house, car, and job. Losing your sanity. That lost and confused feeling comes. You have to start over. When this happens, you fear the unknown because you feel down and feel like your world is at the end. Your emotions are everywhere. Sometimes panic sets in. You have to take those deep breaths and have faith that in the end, it will work out.

The feeling of starting over. Reset your life and try again. Taking it one step at a time. Through the tears and struggles to get back to your normal self and normal way of life before you lost it all. Get back to a happy place. That feeling of questioning yourself and what’s around you, feeling that you are not worthy because of what you go through. That feeling of being scared and not understanding what’s going on in your life. You keep telling yourself to think positive

Starting over. It is a process and something you will not be able to rush. Starting over can be scary and something you will not want to deal with. The feeling of starting over it is draining. But you can heal and get your joy back. The feeling of knowing that it will be okay and that it’s not the end of the world. You are grateful that things are falling into place. The feeling of having to start all over is no more. Still continue to have faith and move with strength and guidance. Sometimes starting over can be a good thing. Pray and Be thankful no matter what.

Just thinking out loud!

I, Self Sufficient

In the quiet of the dawn, I stand alone and strong

Embracing independence, to this life, I do belong

With unwavering conviction, I forge my path anew

A self-sufficient spirit, in everything I do

Through tempests and the storms, I navigate with grace

Unyielding in my journey, challenges I face

My heart beats to the rhythm of courage, fierce and bright

A beacon in the darkness, illuminating night

In moments of reflection, I find my inner might

A fortress of resilience, a testament to flight

For I am the creator, of my destiny untold

A master of my fate, with a spirit brave and bold

I am a lyric of freedom, an ode to autonomy

A song of strength and courage, an anthem of being free

In every note and stanza, my independence thrives

A testament to power, as my spirit comes alive

I, Self Sufficient!

Blessings and Love!

Cold II

In the bitter coldness of my heart

Emotions freeze and fall apart

Love and kindness, all but gone

Leaving me to stand alone

I once felt warmth and tenderness

But now I’m numb, feeling less and less

The chill has seeped into my soul

Leaving me with an empty hole

I know I should feel remorse

But all I feel is bitter force

I push away those who come near

Afraid to feel, afraid to hear

So I stand here in the icy air

A cold-hearted soul, beyond repair

But deep inside, a flicker burns

A hope that someday, I will learn

Until then, I’m still

COLD……

Blessings and Love!

August is also my birthday month, so that is exciting as well. Happy August people.

Do you have any monthly goals? Are any projects coming this month? Staring anything new?

May this month bring you love, happiness, and blessings.

Advice To Me

What advice would you give to your teenage self?

This is a good question. I would tell my teenage self, that she is a young smart, intelligent beautiful young woman who can be anything she wants, and her dreams are not small. I would tell my teenage self to go for and work towards the dreams she wants, have no fear. I would tell her that she does not have to believe the negative stuff people would say. I would tell my teenage self that she is strong, and she will be okay.

The advice I would give my teenage self is to never give up and never let anyone take advantage of you. Go out in this world and do your best, you got this. You are precious!   Keep doing good, keep fighting and surviving.

In The Night!

In the night when all is still

I am up and my mind is awake

Racing with thoughts good and bad

In the night when its hard to sleep

In the night is when I write

Letting it all flow together

In the night, my heart is free, free to be me

In the night I see clear

In the night, my imagination is wild

In the night, my mind is wild

In the night I write freely, freely me

And it is Night! Time to write!

-In The Night-

Blessings and Love!

Thanks for reading.

Distant

D- Disconnected

I-  Invisible

S- Savage

T- Tempered

A-Attitude

N- Nonchalant

T- Terrible

Disconnected in this world

Again, that feeling of being

Invisible in a crowed place

Savage I am, no other way

This irrational

Temper won’t let me be

Attitude bad, and oh so

Nonchalant too

And that feeling of doing things so

Terrible

Distant I must be.

-Distant-

Blessings and Love!

Ms. Misunderstood

Alas, my words fall on deaf ears

My thoughts ignored, my hopes in tears

Misunderstood, overlooked, unseen

I stand alone, a forgotten dream.

I pour my heart out on the page

But still, they do not understand my rage.

My passion for life, my desire to be known

Lost in a sea of indifference, I am alone.

Oh, to be heard, to be seen, to be understood

But instead, I am left in solitude.

My voice echoes in an empty room

A silent plea for understanding, an ineffective doom.

So, I write on, despite the pain

Hoping one day, my words will not be in vain

Until then, I remain misunderstood

A poet lost in a world that does not see the good.

She is

Ms. Misunderstood!

Thankk you for reading.

Rage III

Rage in my heart, beats like thunder

A tempest raging deep within

My thoughts, a wild and fearsome wonder

A storm that’s set to never end

My anger rises like a fire

A burning flame that knows no end

My soul consumed by its desire

To lash out, to break and bend

Ripping apart my peace

Anger boiling deep within

Grinding teeth and shaking fists

Explosive fury taking over

Blood boiling

Over and over

Damn this rage inside of me…

Blessings and Love!
