Today is a day to listen
Sometimes things are loud Sometimes they are soft Today is a day to listen I hear what I need to hear I hear what is not being said Today is a day to listen Listen to my heart Listen to my soul Today is a day to listen Learning to be still Learning to be silent Today is a day to listen Words do not always need to come Words do not always need to be said Today is a day to listen A day to hear what is there A day to hear what is not Today is a…

The Rain
I hear it falling The music plays gently in the background The sounds of the waves crashing I can think of a better way to spend A day off In between the noise and chaos The sound of a car gliding through the puddles All in the neighborhood I call home It is not where I would have thought I would be But it is better than where I was Both in the mind and in the flesh The rain has a way of making one think of all the new ways to look at this life It clears and…

A new step
·
The river flows The ideas come The business starts The time will be soon She will live her truth She will find her place That belonging The sense of ownership It’s only her now Her world Her breath Her life She sees things Others do not see She stops and soaks it in Her life passed by fast All seems to slow Down to almost a stop She breaths in And she breaths out Her life has value She knows herself She becomes priority She is top of the list Her performance Is just for her She will engage with…

Foreign to this world
·
The world seems unfamiliar In the midst of it all There is something not right My world is not your world Your world is not mine Silence comes around me The universe bring forth what it may It shows me the way It brings into my world what is needed Sometimes I do not understand But more and more I am seeing it As it is and what it is for My world is different than yours I live in a place of unusual signs I choose to see them I stop and listen This is my choice Something I…

Turn away
·
A call came today Not expected or wanted But still it came Time to turn away Time to shut the door Delete what was Delete who was Delete that life Never to speak of again It will forever be their loss They are the losers in it all I will grieve no more The evidence shown The reality there Can not get the time back Can not change what happened But I can live this life now I can chose to spend my time now Invest in me Invest in my dog Invest in this life I have been given…

Ground within
·
The soil is ready The mixtures is just right It has been tilled for many moons The strength within it is unmarked Unknown by all except The gardener who tended it What lies within its grains? What is destined to grow? The dirt doesn’t tell a tale It shows through its growth Through its stems and through its leaves It grows up and out It grows and reaches Light and love Just like humans That is all it needs Light and love A perfect balance for any organism to thrive And it will thrive It will bloom into exactly What…

The sway of the trees
Outside today there was a sway The ocean air blew through the trees The trees leaned into it They did not fight it They went with the flow of the earth The flow of the wind The sway of the heart There are many things to capture The heart and the attention But what is really important? Does it always need to be a fight? Can it just be a sit and ride it out? What will the choice be today? I choose to go with the sway The flow can catch me up Just like the waves of the…

Night of tears
Yesterday was a sad day The night came quickly I could not feel numb Not enough to anyone The thought kept pouring in The repeat button engaged The tears flowed No one is coming No one needs to Alone you stand Alone again The time just keeps going on What will you do with it? Will you cry and grieve? Will you feel guilt and shame again? Walk away from it all Find a new way to go You have done it before You will do it again Wipe away the notion that crying is weak It is cleansing and…

True identity
·
The weather is cool The door is open The sage has been burned My life is changing Every step I take Brings me into something new Color on my nails Color on my toes It creates this unique individualism in me Something that was not seen as favorable But the eyes of the judges Are not relevant in my life I am meant to be different I am meant to stand out I stand in my uniqueness There is no one like me I will not be compared to anyone I am the only me I rise and shine with…

A tear shed
·
I looked back today I saw something that brought Me back to the tears So much time invested So little if anything To show for it all I know I will cry again But fuck if it will be today I am done crying over loss Of what I thought I meant To people whose character I do not even respect now I learned I hurt I moved on It won’t happen again I learned from trusting I learned to not give that away My trust, my tears, All very personal All from a very deep place My protection My…
