When it all turns dark

There are times

When everything turns so dark inside my mind

Trapped in the past I struggle to be kind to myself

Forgetting how much I battled on alone

Trying to be quiet

Not ever able to say how confused and lost I felt.

I pretended to be strong

And don’t get me wrong I know I am

To have borne so much of this

And still be alive to tell of it

And yet there are times too

That I just long to collapse inside

Someone stronger’s arms

But if I said I needed this

What would be the cost of it?

Is it wrong

To long for shelter

From all of this inclement weather?

Is it possible to hope for love

And tenderness

And for someone

Secure and safe

To hold onto?

"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. A lot of us find ourselves feeling old loneliness and weakness as we witness the world going insane. Embrace it all and keep focused on your grand dream, your desires… that will come in if you allow.šŸ’ƒšŸ¼šŸŒˆ much love to you x

  4. I’ve found over the last few years, it’s good to get emotional and be sheltered in another’s arms….. even though the relationships haven’t lasted, the feeling of longing’s release has been beneficial to my overall well being, despite the pain of finally separating …. it seemed incidental compared to the pain of grief ……xxxx

  6. There are all things we fear some more than others…

    Those say they fear nothing all talk out of their ass, as human beings the act of feeling affection and to be wanted is apart so many DNA.

    No matter how much you walk through the gates of Hell to get to the Haven of Solace you need to wager in adversity.

    If you know anyone that is caught in the unrelenting storm at sea, don’t allow them to lash out in silent terror.
