Vampires

Standard

My momma told me

Vampires were real

So every night i would make sure the curtains

On the window above my bed covered the window completely,

Not a centimeter uncovered in case

A Vampire should choose to hover above me.

I would then crawl in bed

And get snug under the blankets

Placing my cross necklace on my neck over my nightie so any Vampire would be

Afraid to approach.

And I would stay still

And I would not breathe until exhaustion took over.

All those years I filled my head with the terror of make believe

When reality was worse.

Distraction.

Accountability

Standard

One of

Our greatest fears is admitting accountability;

For then we must see our words and actions

Do make a difference in this world.

Each of us contribute to both the pain and joy.

Until we face ourselves and change our awareness of our own selves,

Reactions of heart and mind,

We allow ourselves to be merely pawns.

Bright

Standard

My heart so bright

My eyes so open

As my feet walked naked upon the red dirt.

And i heard the whipsers so very light

And i felt the depth of inner sight

As those whose feet had been here before

Sent love into the future for those of us to come;

Time knows no line nor curve nor thought.

I knew

I know

I am love.

We are love.
