Witness

Can your heart love

Despite the pain

Can it reach beyond its silent refrain

Of loneliness

And where is the brace that shackles you

To this

A life where only hollowness

Lies at the centre

In your voice I hear a thousand things

You cannot say

You swallowed them when forces made you

Silent

Why consent now to this

A straight jacked that was never right for you

It was only fear of vital life that made them do it

But surely there comes a time

To be larger than this

To reach for expanses of love

Which are there

When you ask

Only to be

Their witness

"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.
