The Invalidation Remedy Poem
By Pamela Storch
Take a step back from the picture and see,
The craters and depths of the soul,
The problem is not all the people involved,
But society of the black hole,
Tomorrow is not just an infamous dance,
Of the loop and the chains of the bound,
For in freedom will roar the great lion again,
And in truth will the true love abound,
Each person deserves to be seen and be heard,
And the space that their story be told,
It is not what is right, it is not what is wrong,
It is silence and presence to hold,
In space people breathe and their body feels safe,
They are valid to be who they are,
When no judgement occurs for the self or for all,
We are free to become our own star,
As the nebula dances the nova erupts,
With the blast of the future in place,
And invalidation will be nevermore,
As each person's a star within space.
“The Invalidation Remedy” by Pamela Storch is a heartfelt and empowering poem that challenges societal suppression and champions emotional safety, presence, and self-worth.
Through vivid metaphors of black holes, roaring lions, and stardust, the poem invites us to reclaim space for every voice to be heard.
This piece speaks to the soul of anyone seeking freedom from judgment, the power of listening, and the reminder that every person is a star in the cosmos. Perfect for those on a healing journey, trauma recovery, or seekers of emotional truth through poetry.
