I came across a divine poem I'd like to share with you all. It was read out in a film called Flick's chicks
What i love about the poem is that it wasn't just a poem, it was also a love letter.
I have tried to find the author of this poem but to no avail.Therefore I am crediting it to Jessica and Joshua Nelson the film writers.

Nowhere, Somewhere, Anywhere
Nowhere
- the place i have called home most of my life
because nowhere, is where i was understood
inspired,and loved
Nowhere
- is the ground on which i stood
Where my life appeared to make sense
Where i had a place i wanted to be
and someone i trusted there was me
Nowhere
- owns the right to my autobiography
It consoles my spirit,
the shadow of every step i took
the backdrop of just
Every time i would fall,but i swallow nowhere
because he was the only one
who spoke my name with ease
Somewhere
- the place i have dreamed of for most of my life
In my reverie, somewhere is where i laughed,
where i cried, where I'm peaceful
Somewhere
- i speak without being silenced by insecurity,
uncertainty and guilt
Somewhere
- is the land of unfathomed desire
Where i walk with my head held high
I know who i am!
I know where i am!
And when i fall,he helps me to my feet
Somewhere
- feels my anguish and
wants to deliver from nowhere
Anywhere
- the place i never thought i would reach in all my life
To exist in the expanse of anywhere is to never
be afraid, never have doubts
To see that your life is only just beginning
Anywhere
- has endless boundaries, endless laughter,
and love with no finish lines
When i stand on the ground of anywhere,
the clouds roll away,and my future is illuminated
with pristine clarity
He walks beside me.
And when im in his presence, i experience
for the first time in my life,
the inability to fall
Anywhere
- consume my heart, consume my soul
I am understood in language and in silence
I am seen from the inside out,from the outside in
He is my home
And in the moment that our lives collided,
he swallowed nowhere
He surpassed somewhere
And as he asked, i followed him
to paradise
to anywhere

How come I've never seen this?!
ReplyDeleteI love it. It speaks volumes.... Like you said it is a love letter but she let's us see who she was before she found love and after...
Great piece and thanks Flo for sharing.
