Jenny Siaba Poem
Feeling grounded, weighted down. The world’s upon my shoulders.
Feel my footing loosing grip, I’m covered up in boulders.
The suffocating pain of life is almost too much to bear;
I’d leave this world of suffering but for the ones that care.
I’ve lost myself inside this storm. The winds are whirling round.
I feel so lost and cast-away. I’m sure I’ll not be found.
Lacking Love, a heart neglected, it’s a dark and lonely place.
I seek some light in this dark tunnel; looking for some grace.
My youthfulness is fading. My hope is growing dimmer.
I search the sky for one small star to wish upon that shimmers.
My world is crumbling down around; inside I feel I’m dying.
I find it hard to leave my bed because I’m always crying.
I seek security in life; to find the Promised Land.
I remember Happiness is a choice that is within my hand.
And like a butterfly slowing leaving the cocoon.
I realize I can find myself; I can change just like the moon.
Slowly, the layers peeling back, my wings begin to show.
The world is feeling lighter; the winds no longer blow.
The boulders crashing down are gone, I feel renewed and fearless.
The pain it’s gone; taken away, by love, hope and forgiveness.
Smiles have replaced the tears, my life has renewed hope.
The colors of my wings they shine; with all things I can cope.
I learned to be the butterfly; my life could rearrange.
All I had to do was from the caterpillar change.

Jenny Siaba Poem
When you love someone with all your heart and soul, you want to share it with the world.
You want to shout it from the rooftops, sing it at the top of your lungs.
You get the floating on cloud nine feeling, that all is right in the universe, that love is everything.
As long as you have him and he has you, you have the world in each other.
It’s a happiness and a joy that hard to extinguish and impossible to hide.
You want to share what makes you smile and got you flying high in the sky.
But what happens when your love is the pain felt by another?
To now have the knowledge that your display of things so beautiful cause nothing but darkness for them.
It puts a dark and dreary shadow and a beautiful, cheerful, and lovely thing.
How do two that love each other so, but love the one in pain, carry on with one another?
The thought of life not built together is devastating to the core;
But the continued hurt the other feels matters even more.
Where's a happy ending, can one be found at all?
For how does one chose between life love and family ties?
Time can be a healer, he might move on from the pain.
But knowing what they know will it ever be the same?

Jenny Siaba Poem
My heart is broken, shattered torn.
I long for a love that tears another down.
Life’s funny. You never know where you’ll find love.
The absolute most perfect beautiful thing the world.
Shattered by the love another felt.
