I need to find myself
walking through thick waters
making true friends
I'm walking through icy waters

I need to find myself
so I can understand where I should be
Can't you see, how much this means to me?
walking through thick waters
taking detours along the way

I need to find myself
I'm making true friends
I'm walking through icy waters

Can't you see how much this means to me/
taking detours along the way
Do you have anything to say?

I need to find myself
walking through thick waters
so i can understand where I should be?
Can't you see how much this means to me
I need to find myself

I need to find myself
so I can understand where I should be
Can't you see how much this means to me?

I need to find myself
I need to find myself
I need to find myself
I need to find myself

I'm walking through thick waters
taking detours along the way
Do you have anything to say?
I need to find myself

she dreams of flying planes
how does wanting to leave taste
when there's nothing here?
16.1.18  /  15.10  /  even though i know this isn't true I cant help but focus on holding on until I can escape this place, it's obstructing my arteries and drowning my dreams

A Glimmer of Hope:
This feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen to us
As most would analyzed this force of hope
A rose expressing hope, a yellow ribbon the symbol of solidarity:
of a love one,  a rainbow after a frightening rain storm
When, the fragments and flashes of thoughts life experiences badgers us:
we sometimes see a little glimmer of hope:
a force of evil and a force of good
just picked one and believe in it..
We as Poets try not to sound so biblical.

However, for our struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers, against the authorities,
against the powers of this dark world and
against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Ephesian 6:12


Today, at this moment, my mind setting, my weekend
of mauby bark purging, I am  seeing and accepting
my glimmer of hope. For the past years, I went from
maybe, I see what we can do, maybe it was your fault,
you should go to church, you should leave things in God’s hands

If I hear anything I will let you know, I will talk to him,
I am seeing and accepting my glimmer of hope.
Never stop believing in yourself,

Heartbreak is only
the time that exists between
two eras of love.

on the deep cream painted fence

Odd color
of trifling light
Flitting petal
blue-purple-gray
emerged from asphalt's
heated slumber
to lead some airy way--

The road forgot
Sometimes there is a moment that deserves forever....

That day when 96 fans died
Through their teeth the police
They lied

They tried to give the fans the blame
Now hang your heads
In utter
Utter
Shame
May not mean much to our US friends, apologies.  Fans were crushed at a football match through incompetent crowd control. More incompetence led to the crushed wounded not being cared for. Then the whole thing was covered up and the fans blamed. 23 years later the truth outs.

A lovely little poem
Written under a willow tree
The leaves tickling your soft head
Your skin
Caressed by the soft touch of it's soft sisters
Flowing down the branches
The pen runs smoothly
Across a perfect piece of paper
Resting blissfully on your favorite pair
Of memory-lane jeans.
You feel nostalgic as your poem is about someone you love
All the lovely times you've shared with them
Coming back to you under such a lovely tree
With your lovely head alive with emotions
What a lovely little poem you've written.
This poem calms me..Makes me feel grounded. How about you?
