Far beneath the waves

Much as I try to hide from it

The grief over your absence

Never really goes away

It drops its silent rain upon my heart

In the quietest moments

When other longings smart

And I think of how impossible it is

To make you see

And feel what I most long for

There is a foreign shore

Its where I travel when the winds all squall

Around the perimeters of my soul

Haunted by those empty spaces

Of long ago

Here I sail all alone

Out past the breakers

Hoping for a glimpse of moonlight

Often losing my moorings entirely

Upon the dark ocean tides

That crash within my heart

Unable to speak of the pain

As my wild storms rage

Losing sight of the truths

That lie buried

So very far

Beneath

The waves

"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.

  2. Oh Deb, I’ve written a poem, of thank you, to all my readers, this afternoon, and I hope I got It right…. I don’t know how to explain my life, but I am truly blessed to be where I’m now…. My main attribute is that I try to stay positive, and of course, I thank Carole for imparting those wonderful courageous qualities hers, onto me xxx
