A way to be free

Sometimes I search to find myself

Within the rubble and broken down mess

Of ages

And then it is I weep

To discover that I was asleep

Or in a kind of trance

For all of these years

As I look back on the past

It seems there are no longer

Any more questions to ask

For I know the answers

And in many ways they cripple me

For there is no new life in the old skin

Anymore for me

What will it take for my soul to be free?

For my caterpillar self to finally

Find her wings

And embrace new life?

For even knee deep

Amidst all of these old bones

I feel the longing for a new home

Calling to me

Maybe both

From deep within

And across the seas

Saying the only question I must now ponder

Is how my soul

Can finally find the way

To new life

A new skin

A new home

To finally discover

A place to be free

"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. You are free my friend… the only restraints we have are the ones we create for ourselves internally. I have held myself back for years and writing is my way of becoming free. You write so beautifully and help so many so thank you 🙏

  2. I feel the same way, it is like being in a fog or wearing blinkers cannot see the reality. Perhaps a spell has been cast to hold you back to stop you finding out who you are. Take care. Some people’s restraints are their own but others have constraints put in place by evil and they have to be removed.
