Before I Knew Better

I forgive myselffor the maps I did not have,for the names I could not yet speak,for the doors I walked pastbecause I did not knowthey were mine to open. I forgive myselffor mistaking endurance for wisdom,for believing survivalwas the same as choosing well. I did not fail to see sooner.I was still being taughthow sight is earned. Some lessons arrive onlyafter the cost has been paid,after the body learnswhat the mind could not hold. Time was not withholding mercy.It was building it. So I loosen my grip on hindsight.I set down the weapon of if only.I let the past be what it wasa classroom, not a courtroom. What I know nowwas never meant for then.It belongs to this moment,to this breath,to the hands I am learningto place on myselfwithout punishment. Forgiveness is not forgetting.It is understanding the conditionsunder which I survivedand choosing not to indict myselffor being humanbefore I was ready to be whole.

Ad Astra Per Aspera

I have wanted to write this poem for a while .. but I never felt worthy of the phrase. I would always run from healing becasue it was too hard. I would try to find shortcuts to make things easier. Writing this poem would have been disingenuous because I did not embody what it means. I now feel worthy. Not as a promise,not as a banner waved from safety,but as a truth learned with dirt under the nails: the stars are not reached by wishing. They are earnedby walking through what resists you.By letting stone teach your feet how to endure pressure.By letting darkness stretch your lungs until breath becomes deliberate.Ad Astra Per Aspera does not glorify suffering.It refuses to lie about the path. It says: there is no clean ascent.No unscarred becoming.No constellation that does not requirepassing through weight,through doubt,through the ache of wanting to stop. The hardship is not punishment.It is fiction.It is the gravity that proves you are still alive,still choosing,still in motion. Every trial carves a little more sky into you.Every failure teaches the bodyhow to hold itself upright when hope thins. You do not rise despite the difficulty.You rise because of it. The starts are not waiting to save you.They are waiting to recognize you when you arrive shaped enough to stand among them. And when you finally look up and see how far you’ve come,you will understand: the struggle was not the cost.It was the forging. Ad Astra Per Aspera is a Latin phrase that translates to:“To the stars through hardship.”or“A rough road leads to the stars.” But the deeper meaning matters more than the literal one. It is not about suffering as virtue.It is about becoming through resistance. The phrase acknowledges a truth that many motivational sayings avoid:there is no ascent without weight.No growth without friction.No reaching toward something higher without first passing through difficulty that reshapes you. In its original sense: Ad = towardAstra = the stars (ideals, higher aims, meaning, transcendence)Per = throughAspera = roughness, hardship, uneven ground So it does not say despite hardship.It says through it. The hardship is not a detour.It is the path itself. At its core, Ad Astra Per Aspera is a refusal of shortcuts.It tells the truth that what is worth reaching for willdemand something from you: time, endurance, honesty, transformation. You do not arrive at the stars unchanged.You arrive forged.

Stormsong of the Old Gods

A Rite of Thunder, Rain and Rebirth O storm-born Father, breaker of sleep,Thunder-wolf prowling the mountain steep,You howl through the pines in an elder tongue,While runes of the tempest on night-clouds are hung. Rain-Maiden whirls in her silver delightVeiling the fiends in her shimmering white,Her bare feet drum on the bones of the land,Waking the seeds with a cool, blessed hand. Oak-Lord of lighting, bright spear in your hand, Striding in power to hallow the land,Your fire-bolts carve in the sky’s dark hide,The burning sigils of gods who still reside. So we circle the stone where our offerings lie,Arms lifted high to the thundering sky;For storm is the breath of the deep-living Earth,A wild-word of ending, a wild-word of birth. We chant with the wind and we drink from the rain,Letting it scour us of sorrow and pain;For each rolling thunder, each cold drop that falls,In the Old God’s answering when the stormfolk call.
