I'm Here to Mend

Chelsey Miguel

format_quote
I'm here to mend
They see a fragment,
No maybe a broken line,
But I see something in the grand design—
But chapters so close the spine can mend,
Every break is a chance to bend.
A bend that can help or to aid
Regardless of what came
You don't have yourself to blame
I'm here to what has to mend
And you, yourself won't have to pretend

— Chelsey Miguel

Reboot

Chelsey Miguel

format_quote
A sudden jolt,
a heavy mist,
A plot twist that I didn't list.
A cry for help or call to see
But I'm the author, I hold the pen,
I'll catch my breath, and start again.

— Chelsey Miguel
