Sitting in this darkness
These gifts have been given me;
The stars beyond the stars.
And on and on.
There is no end to the giving
Come dawn though no longer
Visible to the naked eye.

Expectantly
I stand at the edge of
All that I know
And peer expectantly into forever,
Hoping to catch you glancing
At me.
I savor those
Moments,
A look between you and
I.
And all is said
There in your eyes.
All that I need.
And hearts still beat,
And lungs still breathe.
And no one knows that time has stopped
Within
Until our eyes
Blink once again.

Finding
On the path
Headed the same direction.
Sometimes we cross.
Sometimes we touch.
Sometimes we gaze.
All of us finding our way.

Battle
The battle is real
Should i have a glass of wine
Or
Climb in the closet, shut the door and
Sit in the dark?
Teetering on the edge
Of laughter and screams.
Rocking to and fro.
I must remember why i
Am here.
I love so deep
But do not think i am so
Fragile.
My jaw has met fist amongst other things.
Shadows call even though there be
Light
And friendly faces on the street.
Apathy Creeping at my feet.
Once again I retreat from
The invisible forces.
Battling
Battling
With those formless thought shifters.
“Go away!” I say as my worth is not in
Their ungrateful hands.
I write truth on the wall.
I must remember why i am here.
I close my eyes once more and am
Taken to the red dirt
Where I kneel.
Home feels so far but there
It is in my heart. My heart.
How could I forget. Wallowing
In my fears.
I know why i am here.
I let them
Get in my head. I let them twist my mind.
Deplorable thoughts have no control.
Thoughts cannot condemn my soul.
I know why i am here.
Do i?

Will Do
These hands are cracked
And tired from lifting
And lifting they will do
Until
The last breath
I take.
This heart
Rejoices and breaks
And
Rejoice and break will
This heart do
Until the last beat
It makes.

Write
She begs him
Write for her
Morning, noon and night
Of dreams and things to come
Of the past
To reach inside himself
Release restraints and doubts
And make her feel those things
She has never felt
To turn her inside out
Peel away illusions.
Show her.
Immerse her in worlds beyond talk or action;
Where the mind no longer
Exists.

Back
One cannot throw
Hate and Anger,
Mockery and Self Righteousness
Back
At
Hate and Anger,
Mockery and Self Righteousness
And expect
Love and compassion to
Bloom.

Loudest
Not much for words today
Silence will have to do.
But you know this as soon as she looks at you,
And so you touch her cheek.
And lean in close
The loudest love without
A sound.

Thank You
I see this morning I have 500 followers. I just wanted to thank everyone who has taken the time to stop by and read my writings. I am amazed every time I get a like or a comnent.
I never inteded to share anything I wrote. I have kept diaries and written musings since I could write. A few years ago I finally had the courage to share something I wrote with a friend who thought I should share more. She encouraged me to speak up. I actually cried when I read out loud. Okay truth is I still do:-) working on that.
So from there she set up this wordpress and told me to share when I am ready. I waited quite a while before overcoming my fears of posting anything. I was actually nauseated every time I posted and panicked anytime someone commented. (still get that way) I know it sounds silly but considering where I had come from, well it is not.
So once again thank you. I appreciate that you take time to read anything I ever share. I truly love reading everone else’s writings as well. I appreciate all of you.
Many Blessingsxx

Well Worn
I touch
You
And in that instance
We are
Every emotion,
Memory
Imaginable.
Immersed in eternity itself.
My insides trembling
With
Awareness
Grazing lips feather light
Fervent heartbeats
Against
Skin so soft
And there we are
Holding
Unfaltering
Your eyes upon my
Bare heart
As you too quake in
Awareness
Remembering;
There was a
Well worn path between
Our being
All along.
