Tears

Some days I cannot stop them falling

These tears

I feel my entire body is being wrung

Like a sodden tea towel

And all that comes out is water

When I think of how hearts break

Of how I could so easily break yours

When I think of the one’s I left behind

Never meaning to be unkind

Only caught up with trying so hard

To chase my unlived life

It makes me cry

Tomorrow I may smile

At how I cried today

After extracting all the pain

Of lessons learned

And yet today it feels so sad

And so there is nothing else I can do

But let the tears fall

Accepting it all

As part of the pathway of healing

Knowing that in surrender to feeling

For just a while

I will learn once again

How to smile

Through the heartbreak

Of these tears

"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.
