My hope for love

My hope for love

Has not been totally obliterated

By the all hard experiences

During which love crumbled

For I see with retrospect

The part I also played in things

So when your words of love

Fall down like gentle rain

Upon my thirsty soul

My heart begins to hope again

That all the things you say

And the soft and tender feelings that arise

Within

Can be trusted

But it is also sad to say

That there are times when fear and doubt steal in

Bidding me close the door on everything

Hopes and dreams and longings

I wrapped up so tightly and buried here

Hiding them deep inside

Years ago

When deepest hurts so scarred my soul

So please be patient with me

As I wrestle with my mind

Which is often so unkind

To me

Give me time

To trust once again in life

And not surrender tenderness

For self protection

Past the time

When soul direction

Bids me open once again

The inner petals of my heart

To bask within

The shining rays of love

That you beam

So gently

And with infinite tenderness

Upon my soul

"The religious naturalist is provisioned with tales of natural emergence that are, to my mind, far more magical than traditional miracles. Emergence is inherent in everything that is alive, allowing our yearning for supernatural miracles to be subsumed by our joy in the countless miracles that surround us." Ursula Goodenough How to describe oneself? People are a mystery and there is so much more to us than just our particular experiences or occupations. I could write down a list of attributes and they still might not paint a complete picture pf Deborah Louise and in any case it would not be the full truth of me. I would say that my purpose here on Wordpress is to express some of my random experiences, thoughts and feelings, to share about my particular journey and explore some subjects dear to my heart, such as emotional recovery, healing and astrology while posting up some of the prose/poems which are an outgrowth of my labours with life, love and relationships. If anything I write touches you I would be so pleased to hear for the purpose of reaching out and expressung ourselves is hopefully to connect with each other and find where our souls meet.
