Sacred moment

Death is a sacred moment

A transition from one phase to the next

There are goodbyes we do not get to say

As silently the soul we loved

Slips away

There are learnings in the loss

Even as we struggle to let go and come to terms

With those pains we never chose

There is a revelation that arises

As our heart is torn open

There is a wisdom we gain in the silence

After the horrendous inner storms have passed away

There is no lesson or freedom

Another can give us

Apart from the one we must individually

Grapple with

Hurt is just hurt

And the painful splinter

Must, of necessity

Work its way to the surface

Over time

For no human soul has the power

To control or dictate

These the wild tides

Of our soul’s unique

And complex journey

Through this life

"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. This is beautifully written. I love these lines, Hurt is just hurt “And the painful splinter, Must, of necessity, Work its way to the surface”. It captures grief. It is difficult, it takes time, and eventually we /it emerges. ❤❤ ( I hope that all is well in your world. You truly do write beautifully).
