Lover of life and light. Seeking spiritual ascension through written word.
That feeling that quietly takes ahold, when you know you are no longer heard; The voice that whispers, “don’t be so bold,” so you tip toe just like a bird. You feel the disdain and furrow of their brow, for it is clear in their tone, and voice; So your shoulders cave, and you lose a piece of your soul; you forget that you have a better choice. So you choose to be silent, fill minutes with tears, instead of trying to explain; The woman that you worked so hard to build; now is the girl who holds the pain. The little girl that only wanted to please, to be held, protected, and loved; Now has to learn to scream; raise her voice to be heard… she must learn to fight and be tough. But these things don’t really align with her soul, the tender most nourished parts; Silence and tears should be enough to soften even the hardest and darkest of hearts. But they don’t and she finds that the only way is to harden like those who hurt; So she abandons herself in silence; as the tears leak onto her shirt.

Self Abandonment
If I were to tell you a secret what would you do? Would you keep it close to heart, or tear it apart like paper machet and build a piece of art? What if that secret meant commitment? Sentiment pouring out of my sinew, a pale blue, like the planet we rest upon within this spiral galaxy... I do. I do intend to tell... so tell me... if I told this special thing... would you buy a ring? Would you announce to the world that you are mine and I am yours? Of course, we are not possessions. Obsessions maybe.. you are on my mind from daylight to dusk, and I trust, you like no others before you. So tell me... if I say I need you, would you need me to? Or undo our connection like shoestrings on your shoe? If I say that I like you, that I adore you, would you meet me there? Could you match this frequency with the same intensity, propensity as mine, or care? So come close and lean in... let me whisper softly in your ear... "I love you."

Let Me Tell You A Secret
It's not to hard to notice, or even hard to see, To witness your pure intention, in the way you look at me. To feel your light unbridled, when we sing and when we play, I must admit, it's hard to sit, when you start dancing I melt away. Your smile, your touch, your grounding embrace, it feels so safe, like home. I will not stray, a promise I can make... a feeling I have never known. Looking at the clock it's 11:11.. numbers I often see, Thanking the universe with gratitude, for bringing you close to me. I can't know the future...... but the present is very clear!!!! The biggest highlight of my journey, was meeting you this year. With each day passing, my heart opens wider: I make space, and time anew... growing closer and deeper into our purpose. As I love and honour you.

Honouring You
It may be said that we reap what we sew: We learn from mistakes, we dig and we grow. We choose and we feed, what we think that we need, and somehow wind up, just planting a seed. I remember back when, I was strong and brave, Courageous was I, never bow or behave. But like a gazelle, I am down, and weak; In the mouth of a lion, I tremble and shake. How did I get here? So tired and scared: A fork in the road, confused and ensnared. What is wrong with me? I sigh to myself; I've not done anything wrong, I'm just being myself! But perhaps thats the problem, myself is just wrong, never accepted for me, have to change to belong. I will no longer alter myself to be loved, will not place anyone, ahead or above: No sacrifice made of myself for another, I choose myself and seek to discover. A gazelle I was, but now I am not. A lion roars loudly..... I haven't forgot!!!!

Roar like a Lion
Today I took the shirt you gave me to the Op Shop. I deleted every email, every text, every photo. I may not be able to erase your memory: but I no longer want to be reminded.

Moving On
I feel peaceful here. Amongst the dogs and ferns. The wind ripples through the tall gums. A silent melody. Gods whisper.

The Magic Mountain
You have it down to a fine art, How you can compartmentalize your heart. But you and I both know the truth, You are weak, you are insecure, you are terribly confused. You lack the courage to truly share: So you withold and hope that I'll forgive. But you treat others so unfair, And bear witness to the destruction that you create. You took the wind right out of my sails And painted the masterpiece of chaos and doubt. You were cruel and cowardice, in all of your tales, I love you, I choose you, I want to be with you.... The Rembrandt, in the art of betrayal.

The Art of Betrayal
Yes I still dream about you. And when I awake I have to hold back tears. You are much more loving in my dreams than you ever were in real life.

If You are Wondering
So I guess you are going to make me the villian now? I'm not surprised, but still it hurts. You know that I was genuine. That my love was real and unconditional. Think whatever it is that you need to in order to move on, to finally get your "closure." You are a coward. So afraid to face yourself. So afraid to be honest with your own reflection. Hope the bed you made is comfortable.

Villian
You make me weak. Still I seek you out, no doubt, it's complete. Madness. Sadness. Destruction. Obstructing my eyes, the two of swords. No relief in sight. I might, try to move on. I fight but it's strong. Your pull. Am I a fool? To care? Unaware, you have probably already lost hope. A ship to float? Or sink! On the brink of losing myself. You've placed me on a shelf. To high, you're out of reach. A breach. Of trust you used deceit to defeat me. Do you need me? Do you see me? Or are you just seeking revenge? Unable to make amends, I cannot see through this muddled lense. Oh please, release me. You are my kryptonite.
