I wish I could carry your pain
But I can’t
But I can be here for you to try and ease the load
I wish I could share your burden
But I can’t
But I can listen when your burden becomes too much
I wish I could make you see that things will get better
But I can’t
But I can show you ways of handling it better
I wish that I could lead you in the right direction
But I can’t
But I can show you different, better roads that are there for you
I wish I could tell you that you won’t have hard decisions to make
But I can’t
But I can be there if you need to talk them through
I wish that I could stop the tears
But I can’t
But I can hold the tissue box with my arm around you
I wish I could carry your pain
But I can’t........

trying to please
but not feeling at ease
trying to smile
but hiding sadness
trying to stand tall
but bowing under the weight
trying to find me
but feeling lost.
putting people first
but being left behind
putting a face on
but wanting to hide
putting best foot forward
but failing on each step
putting yourself out there
but finding where that is.
looking to the future
to see the light
looking for a better way
to find a new direction
looking deep inside
to find the courage
looking outside the box
to finally get where i'm supposed to be.....

WORDS
Why stay silent
When there is so much to say?
Words say so little
But then say so much.
Hurt by a truth
Hurt by a lie
Why stay silent
When there is so much to say ?
Thoughts keep you silent
Afraid to say these things out loud
Mind plays different options
Too scary if these thoughts came out
So why stay silent
When there is so much to say ?
I will be judged
It wouldn't be fair
To share these words I hold.
Tell the truth
But don't tell a lie
Mouth open but no words can be found
So this is why I stay silent
When there is so much I could say !

I lay and think
Of two hands cupping my face
A tear being being gently wiped from my eye
A strand of hair being carefully placed behind my ear
A tender kiss
I lay and think
Of a strong arm wrapped around my waist
Head nestled into a strong chest
A heart beat to listen to
A tender kiss
I lay and think
Of two people being entwined
Of gentle fingers running down my arm
A breath so much warmer than mine
I lay and think of tender kisses...........

Wishes
Eyes closed
Concentrate hard
Hold your breath
Count to three
Blow hard
Tickling the nose
Then taken by the breeze
To places unknown.
Easy things to forget
These wishes
Thinking back to times long past
Remembering these wishes
The anticipation and excitement
That someday, some how
These wishes were coming true.
Still doing the same
My eyes are closed
I’m concentrating hard
Holding my breath
Counting to three
Blowing hard
Tickling my nose
Still taken by the wind
To place unknown...... But I'm still wishing

Four walls
Confines of our mind
Like a box
With little peep holes.
Safety of what we know
Our comfort zone
In a box
With little peep holes.
No growth
No stimulas
In a box
With little peep holes.
Four walls need to be climbed
We peek an see
Out of the box
With the little peep holes.
So many challenges
To help us grow
When ya out of the box
With the little peep holes.
You land badly
Confused and lost when ya out of the box
With the little peep holes.
Stumbling blocks
Are in ya way
When ya out of the box
With the little peep holes.
But lookin back ya start to see
The darkness of what used to be
In the box
With the little peep holes.
Life will be hard
Life will allow you to flourish
Life will teach you lessons
Life will give you sadness and tears
Laughter and love
And should show you that no one
Should stay
In a box
With little peep holes .

Just a girl
Elbows on the window sill
Head in her hands
Watching the rain splash on the window
Distorting the view
Making shapes and colours
As the rain drops fall.
A shiver
She wraps her arms around her
Wishing its was someone else’s strong arms
Takes a jumper
Caus she knows it’s the only fluffy warm feeling
She will feel in a while.
Just a girl
Looking through the window
Wondering who is out there
Is there someone out there for me
Pulling the jumper tighter
Head back in her hands
Watching the rain
Distorting the view ……….

2012.........
Would like to say I’ve survived the year
But I’ve done more than that.
I’ve had sad times
Bad times
Tears but lots of laughter.
I’ve be hurt
Been burnt
But laughed alot.
People have left my life
Entered my life
Brought me down
And lifted my spirit.
I’ve learnt about myself
Maybe by making mistakes
Taking some wrong turns
Loosing myself.
But I thank the people
That have been part of my journey
Brought me to where I am
Found at last
I’m ready to challenge myself more
I’m going to be stronger than before
Determined that 2013 is going to be my time
Just to be ME .........

Don’t you just wish emotional scars would vanish
Vanish as quickly as a bruise or physical scar
Turn to the colours of a rainbow
And back then to skin colour
No sign of damage.
The emotional scars never seem to fade
Words of anger
Words that were said
Words that were witheld
Words you wish you has said
Turn over and over in your head
Replay set … over and over again
No rainbow colours just black and white scenes
Vivid in the minds eye
Wishing they would distort like a faulty TV
Reaching for the remote wanting the off button.
We made it through a voice tells us
Yeh we made it through but with invisible scars
That very few see or want to see
We are enclosed in this tv
We are replaying the programme
Don’t we just wish these emotional scars would vanish
