Too much?

tear stained cheeks

I lace my shoes

this is not something I want to do

visit the doctor who will poke and prod

but it is the thing I must do to take care

at times I feel I am just out in space

free falling through the air

nothing to hold onto

my loved ones are all in spirit now

and so maybe the hold of this earthly place

is letting me go

I do not know

but I long for you

who knows if we will ever meet

as we are trying to

and I will survive alone

but just once in my life

I want to make love with free abandon

to be able to reach for a hand without fear

just for once I want to trust

that there is someone who will be there

because you see for years I ran

not knowing where to

and even before I arrived

I saw myself coming

but now I just want this gift

sweet rest in your arms

if only for a while

a cheeky joke

a quiet smile

to light the gentle winter afternoon

is this too much to ask?

"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.

    1. I am Carol Ann. I just got overcome with fear before my doctors appointment and had a fear of dying. My sis just underwent her second round of treatment but I just got home and doctor seems to think I am fine just have to have another mammogram soon. Thanks so much for you care as the last week has been pretty tough. Much love. I will try to find your email back later and send you a mail. Hugs and love hope you are okay today. xoxo
