Away from here

You are gone now

But memories linger on

I recall how painful it was

Never to get the chance to say goodbye

And to have held so deep within my heart

Silent tears I never got to shed

Until all those years later

When your best friend died

I am grateful that then

His family enclosed me

Keeping me warm for a while

Underneath their wing

Afternoons

So easily remind me of you

How I waited for you to come home

But also feared being close to you

Never really knowing what to say

And how you took yourself away

Lost in your garden

Deep in private thoughts

I never got to share

How these ghosts linger

Passing on their affects

In ways we do not realise

Often until it is far too late

But never the less

I thank the afternoon now

For the memories

Yes you are gone from me

But sometimes I feel your spirit

Drawing close

Whispering messages of love

You didn’t get to share

With me

In the years before

You were taken

Far away from here

"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. Oh this is so sad…… I feel for you….. Here’s a healing I wrote today…. maybe I’ll post it later on….. haven’t made up my mind yet……
    Brave Hearts

    I always remember
    The last time I saw the sun
    I always remember
    The last time I saw you

    Yesterday I remembered
    The colours of your sky
    Yesterday I remembered
    The colour of your eyes

    Today I remembered
    The happiness in your smile
    Today I remembered
    The happiness of our every mile

    Tomorrow I’ll remember
    The final beat of your brave heart
    Tomorrow I’ll remember
    The silent beats of our lost charts
