Note:  I wrote the first poem early in the morning upon waking up and later added to it eventually resulting in seven poems in total.  Changing one verse can change the entire meaning of the poem yet the theme of the first poem is adhered to throughout all seven poems. If you find one of these poems that resonates the most with you, please be so kind as to reply with the number of the poem in the comment section.
