I search
I seek
when angered
I speak
I walk this earth
grateful for each step.
My life
my journey
your life
your journey.
Leading
following
meaning in the meaningless
simple pleasures
standing strong
against the odds
truth is truth
surrounded by lies
no answers to why.
Every breathe
every step…
Live it real
live it now
within you know how
time is skipping
sunrise
sunset
another step
another tick
closer to death…
Standing stone
I am a rock
Born early
born small
A month with no love at all.
Mothers love
bright and strong
Father
Gone
Abandoned
pain
bright and strong
A wounded child
bright and strong
grows and serves
bright and strong
First love
bright and strong
hard choices
Gramps and Grandma
bright and strong
salt of the earth
Rock Strong
Gramps-my Father
Proud and loud
Grandma-Grams
Smoke and silence
We loved well…
Mother-
Friends come and friends go
Lovers come and lovers go
heart beats
heart breaks
life goes on…
Broken body
broken dreams
Strong as a rock
on a winters eve.
Marry, Mate
Love and Create
two Daughters
Bright and Strong
cruel games of mind
biding time
Escaped
Broken Heart
Broken Bonds
Rise above
the rising tides.
Moving on
like a rock
I stand the tides
We abide.
My greatest strength
is my strength.
Like a rock
Ma, I miss you
bright and strong
my memories live on
the people
the places
the faces
Painful, it has been
but,
love always begins again.
I rise
I endure
I compromise
I adapt
I laugh
I cry
I teach
I reach?
I write
I fight
I strive
sometimes
I wither on the vine
sometimes
I die
but,
if I rise
in my broken pieces
I walk
I breathe
I think
I feel
I rise
and try again
bright and strong
like a rock.
Standing stone.
Awake
alive
another to die
always moving
never rested.
Always asking why?
Living life unfulfilled
withered thrills.
Here’s a pill
one step forward
one step back
another day
under attack
what do I lack?
Bought the lie
to live like
I’ll never die
Bought societies dogma
that I need everything
to succeed
to survive
to thrive
be thin
be beautiful
be wealthy
be hip
be young
I’m done.
Be something unachieveable
and wonder why…
I cry
I stand alone
On my rock
I will not buy the lie anymore.
I am enough
as I am
if it bothers
I don’t give a damn
This is where I make my
stand-
I am good enough
as I am.
As I lie awake
and dream
of places not
what they seem
Journeyed far and wide
many spaces to hide
Whispered whisps
Silent sighs
wondering why,
sometimes I cry
wondering why
its a magic ride
spaces to hide
Embraced place
stone by stone
like a lovers breath
I want you near
to an ear
No fear
We are here
Embracing spaces
dreams…
Ready to face the demons-
within and without
longing to live my life
within and without
destiny fought
destiny sought
within and without
facing the truth
within and without
going to ground
within and without
over and under
within and without
another day wasted
never again
within and without.
Moments come
moments go
pain comes
pain goes
money comes
money goes
passions come
passions go
friends come
friends go
trouble comes
trouble goes
chances come
chances go
life comes
then it goes…
I am
She who knows
I am
here to grow
I will not be denied
or the soul dies
Wild Woman
roaming
hunting
seeking
I growl
I howl
longing
to be
to see
free
buried deep
hidden long
denied no more
ready
hunches quiver
alert
scarred
and bloody
I rise
I strive
I’ve survived
Now,
I thrive
Wild Woman
will not be
denied
I am
She Who Knows
and
I own it.
Maybe its a start
Maybe its an end
either way
let it stand
time is fleeing
time to prepare
time to release
the despair-
Create a new
be what you are
A shooting star
Either way
start or end
Means the same
Its all in the name of the game….
Falling
failing
wonder
wailing
another go
another gone…
welcome to my world…
