Fire storm

Behind the barricade

My feelings for you lay

Quietly sleeping

Like an old dog

Grown tired of sneaking morsels

Aching in his being

For the way back to the life

He had to forget

Along the path of remembering

And so

If lately

I find myself

Surprised by love

As light grows in my soul

Along with the happy memories of being alive

I had to hide

Because death exerted such a powerful hold

Upon my soul

Then this radiance will

In time

Unbind me from the sadness

Release me from the insanity

Of this half life

Suspended paralysis

As I emerge fighting

All guns blazing

Held fast inside the eye of a tornado

Bursting open within

The heart of a fire storm

For I do not want

To fear for my life

Any more

"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. I see lots of positive vibes in this poem Deb, and especially the concluding piece..
