Be my breath
When my thoughts fade
Be my breath
When my mind decays
Be my breath
When my lungs cave
Be my breath
When my heart stops.

Poetry
Be my breath
I sit with the fear
Sense how it feels
Digging in it's heels
I let it speak but soothe it deep
Knowing the souls spirit is real deal
Listen
to the sounds  
Nature all around
Whispers in the trees
Birds preen and flapping
Wind whistling
Thoughts and noise building
Release them one by one
Vortex of energy beneath the layers
Within that connection  
It doesn't need to be heard just felt with pure intention
Depression - Cheer up!
Anxiety - Don't worry!  
Overthinking - Stop!
Panic attacks - Calm down!
Be yourself!  - That's too much!
Shy - You don't shut up!
Talkative - That's really enough!
The right one
will bring
love
to
all
your
darkness
Too much time has gone past with pain and sorrow
Although I know it was what was needed in that moment
Im under no illusion they won't come round again and maybe even with harder truths
But for now and for future when I can walk with the day, I will
I'll wake up to more adventures
To enjoyment
To shake the comfort zone
To live more fully
This is my life and I don't want to go on feeling like I've already died
There has to be celebration
in the living times
Between sleep and dreams
All is not as it seems
Your eyes have awoken from sleeping state
though your mind rests in an altered place
Peeking through the veil of human sight
At first the apparitions can be dark as night
Luring over you with intense imagery to fright
As your thoughts evolve and your fears subside
Perception changes and views more of the light
Shapes and pattern come to life
Flashes illuminate
Words write
People appear
Orbs form dance and disappear
Messages connect deep inside
Other realms from closed mind hide
All is not as it seems
Between
sleep
and .....
dreams
My hands are numb
Body weak
Eyes blurry and red
So tired now
I would like a restful bed
In dreams of astral realm
I
         drift
I lie back
Scan the body
Each part I make heavy and relaxed
Sinking into the earth
The bed as support
The muscles loosening to the weight
Then I let the truth of feeling come up in body
I feel the throttling tightness in my throat, the sharpness in my chest,  the aches all around and the churning in my stomach
I lay with the discomfort
Staying still and as relaxed as I can as I do
The sensations bloom and I let them flow
To just be
I can stay with this feeling
Each time I feel it more or less in one or another place
I place my hand on my heart provide compassion acceptance and a comforting reassurance
I let a wave flow through my body as I come back to the room
And I make it through every time

I now throughout my day let the anxious feeling come up for air until it dissipates ...
I've ran away for too long.
Beyond the haze of life
There's a place where I roam
A place to the otherside
A space of spirit home
Colours vivid and bright
Animals wild and free
Tribes dancing chanting rituals rites
Healing takes it's throne
Deep into the unknown
I wonder completely
Visions shown
Awakening to the truth
Can at times seem like a destructive process however it is the opening up of awareness to things that have been there all along beyond the usual senses
Just because it is a truth right now does not mean it isn't changing
This is the time of transformation on the planet
With any emotion or dense energies in order to release them we tend to view them
Feel it
Then we can purge
and
release it
Release it to the light
Bring more light to you
Answer the call of your spirit
Go to where it lifts
Each has their own signature and personal creative gifts
You can see what you want from the outside
You don't know how someone is living in the inside

Big hearts masked by the dark

When did we lose our way
I watch the birds fly up above
They use to fly in twos
Now they soar in solo flight
Carry their wings over kingdom of blues
Owls Owls everywhere
Always watching
through
the
dark
I'm tired today
but that's ok
cause I'm birthing
my
self
Expansion
Inflation

Birth
to a new
nation
Sometimes the fears you don't want to face
Face you!
Small steps at a time you have to be willing to climb
It's no easy feat
The fears try to beat
Have to keep finding the strength

A wasp doesn't want to sting but will if frightened and rattled
They just want to go about their day doing as wasps do
Be gentle with them if stuck in your enclosure
Set them free..

We all want to live with peace and more ease

Don't want to feel the sharp end
of
any
biting
sting
I feel the bitterness rise
But I don't want to betray myself
Your words bitter
Issues with you in that mood
I'll let them slide more easily and not hold on too tightly
But somehow they come back to me
Black crosses and lace
1 part love
1 part hate
Lust
Want
Fate
Rip me open
Let the world burn
Open to dripping bloodied heart
Watch as the sword dissects every cruel and loyal part
Throw them in the fire
Molten and ash
On the banks
bodies
dying
To taste
...........
what they get back
Black
heart
Passionate
rose
Wings
to
fly
Vines of life
Faith
to
rise
Basically a collection of my tattoos. They all have meaning.
Cast a shadow to us
To face the sun
Keep your light within strong
Moon will recharge reflect back
Illuminate when it's
time comes
Filled up with hate
Grip hair tight by nape
No longer punch self in face
Sun heats skin back of eyelids
Staring straight into the sun
Once you get past the blaze
flashing coloured haze
  black spot on the
whole
Black velvet lies
Golden promise and high reign in disguise
Of lost soul to dark ties
Don't be fooled by luxury
Could be fallen demise
Wrapped up in warm quilt
Eyes heavy now
Stresses relax to mellow moods
Letting go...drifting with tranquil solitude
Tummy filled with fragrant sweet foods
Tingling in body
Heart flutters light
To be at one with dreams
I must go!....
To all a
good
and
peaceful
night!
Count your blessings
Keep the roots grounded
In your space what do you see
What is in your surroundings that you can be grateful for this day
What little things can you feel a blessing for
Who do you love and hold dear
Even if near or far
Waves of Bliss
You mellow me
I believe in manifestation
Though I'm not sure what I want
Do I really need anything
The bad can come to me so much easier
The wall was built.
The high blades of grass can be seen
Do I deserve to jump in
The blocks could be placed as steps or obstacles
I placed in a foot
I perch on the wall
Red river flows
from the
bones of the marrow
Transporting of nourishment
to the
cell
Army of the white defenders keeping out bodies that could take over subject an internal hell
If we bleed
we will stand together
as a hardened pack
No further spill of blood
once barricade invaded patch
Keep out the intruders
Protect our quarters
Hold strong
and steady
Remember what it brought us
In blood and memories

Lest we forget
Wound opens
Blood
spills
out
Fetch the bandage
Need
to
heal
Walking by the florists
A voice called in ear
Said go in apply for job nothing left to fear
Ignored the signs the calling tune
After missed opening heart felt sad full of gloom
So days past got on with daily tasks
Wanted to get inner glowing feeling back
Following week heart echoed voice
Spirit sang and presented choice
The messages were there on route to path
So plucked up courage shadowed doubting mind of lack
Glad signs were finally followed
Now more uplifted
Universally gifted
Future is improved
Life in floral bloom
The trees branches
blow in the wind
there is movement
but still presence
Two branches
scratch at each
other causing friction
The bark chips
away
smooth now
renewed.
Sleep in bed so blue
Each night look up to the moon
Body lay from minds fabric
Tapestries worked from written truths
Spoken out loud or kept inside
The energy is driven
The product the proof
Bon voyage
Je vous recontrerai
dans mon coeur
A bientot
X
From each other came you
Embodiment of experience
Essence
of
Source
Living
Loving
Learning
Lessons in life's course
Keep feelings tight
As the winds howl loud and swift
Drifting in bottled skin
Hear the hollow screech sound from within
Breathe it in_
Sink..
And lift!
Swirling well of sorrow inside the heart
Teeth clenched in pain and too angry to part
Don't even really know why I hold so much feeling
It'll loosen the grip soon
Fade out .....
......to begin again
Boundaries
because others trampled all over them
Get down on your knees  boy
I'll run my fingers through your hair
Tenderly at first a little tighter make you care
Look up when you're spoken to
I bet you want to kiss these lips
Well pucker up an I'll give you a little lick
No don't touch me!
Your not allowed!!
I'm in control
You're mine now
I can do as I choose
You have to wait until I untie you
I'm on my knees now too
How does it feel when I touch you
When my mouth comes close to tease you
I can feel your breath on my skin
Warming neck and breast
I'll let it sink in..
You should rest
Lie down
I'm not through with you
You can take control
Hold me
with
bound breaths
The day is filled with words images and actions that stream into the other
When they want to be heard they make themselves known
The messages highlighted in the pages read
Today follow the lines from cover to cover
The stories in the now
This is a gift alone
Stems frail
Weak and split
Broken apart by the weight of it
A bowl of carnations presented delicate
Just the heads of flowers
Long lost showers
Still
I can see my shadow in the light
I can see how it wants to shine
How it longs to be warm
The warmth gives it space to be and to see the gift that it offers
555 was the time on the clock
On this first day
The past will stop
Receive the present as a gift
Feel the heart as lighter lift
On towards the coming year
With angels and guardians to you are near
Dark room
Dark heart
Hard beat
Scared world
Brave soul
         ~
Dark room
Faint heart
Fast beat
Still world
Brave soul
         ~
Starry room
Light heart
Steady beat
New world
Brave soul
       ~+~
There is hope in the skies if you look for it
The shadows must be seen before you can see what you've been walking with
The light will expose the dark
The warmth can be felt true in our hearts right now
Send others love
Even your enemies it doesn't mean you condone
It means you can find more peace within and let go of binding ties that no longer serve for you and a better world
The breaking down must happen
Before the building back up again to a happier more fulfilling honest life 🌸✨
Spiritual awakening isn't all airy fairy and light
It's as hard as ****
You break
You break
You break
Pick up broken pieces
Find place of gratitude
Learn from lessons given
Then another comes tumbling in
The walls crash down and you break
Crumbling back
to
ground
Sometimes we've got to break down
So we can stand back up!
Take me into your hands
Rub me gentle and slow
Massage tenderly
Perky will grow
Breast care is
valuable to know
Do it alone or a close friend
someone willing to grace with
a healthy healing glow
