Tenderly

Tenderly I held you as you cried out your pain

I know your body hurts so much right now

With feelings you had to deny before

Because no one could cope

Or validate

The whole of you

Or recognise the truth

Held inside out of fear

But I want you to know this

From deep inside my soul

I hear you

And I will not tell you

Like the rest of the world

That none of this makes any sense

Because knowing your history

I know the truth

So turn to me

When the world turns dismissive hard and cold

And if you need a hand to hold

Please reach for mine

For never again will I be unkind

Or tell you are a waste of space

Or far too much to bear

As the adults who failed you did

All of those years ago

"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. It’s not your Achilles heel to care and admire how you are able to connect with your emotional intelligence.

        Being a good person doesn’t mean your unempathic because you don’t allow others walk all over and take advantage of you.

        Stay strong
