Chelsie Lucas Poem
I know who I am
Wearing what I love
Everyday is the same
Appealing to my needs
Radiating as I walk
Beauty I reflect
Listening to my heart
Ageless I stay
Color of my choice
Knowing who I am

Chelsie Lucas Poem
It happens most nights
When evil is near
Something takes over
And I’m not here
Everything goes dark
And I lose my human desire
I turn to bone
I’m engulfed in fire
With my steel chain
And my Penance stare
The demons I’m hunting
Had better beware
The Devil cursed me
With a blood sealed stain
To vanquish the demons
And cause me pain
I’m the peacemaker
The evil decider
I walk this Earth
As the Ghost Rider
If you cross my path
And have done wrong
I will send you to Hell
Where you belong

Chelsie Lucas Poem
I suffered in silence
But could never hide the pain
From the marks on my face
To walking home in the rain
Everyday I tried to be perfect
But it did me no good
Everything I did was wrong
Which I misunderstood
The cuts and bruises healed
But inside they did not
Even though I’m not in that room
My heart never forgot
The helplessness you feel
It’s hard to explain
But you lose something inside you
And you never are the same
I hoped someone noticed
Just one person to care
But when I looked up for help
No one was ever there

Chelsie Lucas Poem
If I didn't smile so much
Invisible I would have stayed
Instead, he chose me to be
A pawn in the game he played
If I wasn't as strong as I was
Then I wouldn't have been all alone
If my skin was more sensitive
Then the bruises would have shown
If I didn't have these color eyes
His favorite blue like the sea
He maybe would have picked someone
Anyone other than me
Maybe if I explained my words better
So, people would understand how I felt
Strategically I began to play each move
With the hand that I was dealt
I knew how this game would end
And it was winner-takes-all
He placed the first bid
I soon followed with a call
I wasn't going to go down easy
I was going to make it tough
He soon realized this
The moment I called his bluff
The game lasted so long
And I hoped he couldn't tell
Full of fear I was sitting
I made sure I hid it well
Finally, a stroke of luck
I took a chance with no plan
I hoped my cards were better
Then the ones held in his hand
Little to no chips left
I was forced to go all in
Thinking that he had me
I showed my cards for the win
I made it out alive
The memories I can't erase
The game I'm always reminded of
By the scar upon my face

Chelsie Lucas Poem
Afraid of letting go
Destruction I have caused
Damaging my body
Illegal behavior
Convincing myself it’s okay
Toxic life choices
Estranged I have become
Denying the truth
That I am Addicted.

Chelsie Lucas Poem
Walking in the wilderness
I ran into a bear
He had yellow eyes
And purple hair
He was in front of his house
Living by a lake
He was standing in his yard
Holding a rake
He waved me over
Inviting me into his home
That’s when I found out
He wasn’t alone
I met a jolly red guy
Who became my best friend
I met a bunny named Jerry
Who loved eating sand
I have the coolest friends now
Especially Santy Clause
Come to find out
I was tripping balls
I soon realized this
When I came too
I had passed out on the couch
After sniffing glue

Chelsie Lucas Poem
Moving forward
Letting go of the past
Unbinding my being
From the shadow it cast
This shadow is darkness
Which holds all my grief
It stops me from living
My happiness thief
The darkness is a burden
That will never leave
My most painful memories
It will retrieve
Reminding me of my flaws
To break me from being strong
Wanting me to suffer
In all I’ve done wrong
I want to break away
From the shadow that is cast
But I stay living
In the shadow of my past

Chelsie Lucas Poem
I’m my own worst critic
All the negativity in my head
The thought of not being good enough
Leaves me restless in bed
I do not want to have regret
Of a life I didn’t live
The dreams I never chased
The love I didn’t give
I think I would be much happier
Leaving my comfort zone
Traveling somewhere new
Taking a step in the unknown
I want to live a life of adventure
Instead of being trapped in my cage
I don’t want to be behind the curtain
I want to be center stage
I will stand courageous
Even when I have fear
If I don’t try in my life
I will only remain here
