Writing in my journal of heart I sing,
gathering wisdom inside breath.

When tempest storms rage I write,
trying to ground for understanding.
When sky reveals beauty I write,
grounding with majestic scenes that call.

As scribe my ink becomes road
feeling the passionate words lead on page.

As composer moments vanish inside timeless realm
where words become my friends.

And while siting quietly
scripting in my journal
dreams surface as words dance on vellum field

A field allowing heart to expand,
and peace to be mine.

A feathered friend spoke to me,
meshing its melody with  wind.
It gave me reason to dance.
Reason to celebrate the moment
that unveiled a heart that sings in grace.
That unveils endless possibilities
with passing clouds and shinning sun.

Inside a pool of words I swim,
connecting to thoughts that echo.
They flow inside wavelets
that dance gracefully.
They vibrate within heart
that beats in divine song.

Within vat of phases,
thoughts sometimes heavy,
spiral with memories like tornado.
Thoughts sometimes light,
become powerful as self awakes with wisdom.

Inside pool of creative jargon I drift,
experiencing force that guides pen to paper.
It vibrates to birth a poem into ones eyes.
It makes moment slow for
a beacon of light to bring peace.

Peace as a lighthouse of love shines
to lead an artists creative soul.

I always thought I would find the perfect man.
That growing up I'd have security with a job.
It was untrue.

I always thought siblings were meant to get along.
That I would become older to understand life.
It was not true.

I always thought having a house
and money would bring happiness.
That being a good person meant always saying "yes."
It was untrue.

Now I know that no one's perfect.
Security comes from connecting to love.
Siblings aid in teaching lessons.
Life can't be understood until death.
Happiness comes from living in the heart.
And saying "NO" is an honoring gift to self

I sank.
Thinking it was safe to swim.
I drowned in every piece of you.
