Embracing love

The deeper truth

Is that love was always there

But it was harder to feel it

In a world so often turned away

That left us so alone

With no one at all

To bear our insides to

And then at times

The world only gave us pain

Or taught us to feel shame

For being this way

The way we really were

So is it any accident

That we learned to hide our truth

So deep inside

Silence our voice

And turn away too

This I know

There are many of us out there

With hearts of gold

That life laid a tarnish over

And when we seem to feel the sun

That sense of warmth

And calm acceptance of another

It is then that the rust of tarnish

Turns to dust

And falls to the ground

As we water it with all of our tears

That are the result of years and years and years

Of living bound by fears

That blocked us from

The path of love

And until we see the pain and wound we bear

And water it with our own

Compassion, understanding and care

We will never find a way to fully live

Embracing the wound

In ourselves and each other

Embracing love

"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.
