the breaking

Lay me down here

Among the wreckage of broken dreams

Let me be the one who feels

The power of the breaking

Is this time for waking

Or is it that sleep stole from me

Recognition of the deep

Here amongst the wreckage

Of the broken pieces

Is where I find my blessing

For how can I come together anew

Without this time of falling apart

Maybe it was just

My soul hungering to contain

So much more than this

That caused the shattering

Maybe it was the deeper self in me

That longed to be

Far more than I was

That summoned up

The breaking

"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.

  1. Transition and transformation is what I felt here. It is scary and dark and unknown, but it leads to the light.
    I’m there with you on a parallel path, I believe, Deb.

    I don’t think I tell you enough how much I love your poetry. It really is beautiful and speaks to me on a deep level.

    Love to you,
    M
