And suddenly my world is shaking 
My head is spinning
Im sitting still, frozen with fear
Glass shattering
The walls are swaying
My phone rings but I can't speak right now
Please stop
I'm here alone
Will it come tumbling down on me?
I don't want to go like this
Surprisingly I decide to pray
Lord please protect and forgive me
It doesn't stop
My hands are shaking
How pathetic, how insignificant
I won't allow a tear
I'm strong in my weakness
I don't have these fears
So small in this universe, a mere spec
Powerless...

How has it come to this?

Once upon a time, we got our happily ever after.

We were best friends,

And now...

..

You are a stranger.
I don't know what became of the person who I told all my secrets too,
I don't know where you've gone...


How I long to have you back, even just for one day,
to laugh as we once did.

Yet here we are..

fighting over money, houses and cars.
loosing our way because our love turned to hate.

can't we go back to being just friends? we shared so much the loss is so great.

We move on and apart yet our love lives on in the children we made together, they ask me why..

And at night, when I'm alone I still cry.. for all that we were, and all that we had. for all the good, bad and sometimes ugly..

we had love....

But now it's gone

Dear Son

I hear you scream out of desperation

I see the pain you're going through

I hear your cries of terror

I know the suffering you went through

I watched as your father hit you

I watched as the bullies humiliated you

I saw knew your suffering the day you were left an orphan

I felt your tears run down your cheeks

Did you see?

Did you know?

Did you hear?

Did you watch?

Did you feel?

Did you hear the voice of the mother I gave you who comforted you?

Did you know the bullies stopped because I sent a friend to stand up for you?

Did you watch when I gave you son-ship in a loving home?

Did you feel the son-ship I granted you in my family?

Did you see the healing I provided?

Why then do you cry to me?

Why do you ask for what I already gave you?

I gave you my son?

What more could I have given to prove that I love you?

Be still

Look around at the blessings you have

Don't look at what you don't have

Be still

And know

That I am God

Dear Daughter

I saw the beatings you took

I watched as you were crying on the floor of your room

I saw them scream at you and abuse you

I heard you call my name

I felt the depression and brokenness you felt

I felt the pain you felt of a family who scorned you and treated you like a dog

Did you watch?

Did you see?

Did you hear?

Did you feel?

Did you watch as I sent the neighbor to come check on you?

Did you watch as she took you in and cared for you?

Did you see healing I provided through the comfort of your friends?

Did you hear the uncle who cried with you and tried to be the father he couldn't?

Did you feel the grace and mercy I gave you?

Did you feel my love?

You called and I came

I love you

All this I did for you

Open your eyes to what you have

Count your blessings

Be still

And know

That I am God

I don't  want you in a chapter
of my life,
I want you in all the pages of my
life,
With a happy ending.

She Writes
I’d rather write than speak
My pen is always responsive
My ink doesn’t judge my mistakes
My paper doesn’t argue
My lines never cross me
My sentences never disappoint
And my words will never leave me

As the sun dips through the sea
The darkness starts dancing in the night
The moon once again took the spotlight
As the stars sways by its side

But all of this will not long
For the glorious sun will take its throne
It will stroke its ray through vast unknown
And the cycle goes on and on

Tell me this!
How can you cage a bird
When you fell in love
Whilst watching it fly?

Today I shall get high on life.
To feel the energy of wind,
hear birds sweet song,
dance upon sacred Mother Earth.

Today I shall take the drug of life.
To be grateful for all that life brings.
shinning a light upon difficult
situations.

Today I shall move in my power
To feel connected to source energies
and all the invisible allies present
who come to my aid.

Today is the first day of the rest of my life
to align with higher self
moving with the grace of self.

And life is both terrible and extraordinary,
and you can feel happy and sad at the same time,
and kids can be playing around next to a coffin,
and someone can be leaving this world while someone else is coming to live.

Let’s make a boat out of the moon,
Braid these stars into our hair,
Sail this endless galaxy till the end of time,
Breathe in every little fragment of this entirety,
Let’s get lost in this universe.
Let's get lost together.
