Power

You have the power

You always did

The world revolved around your desire

And then you could not see anyone else

At all

We ached to be connected to you

And your father you know he gave everything

To let you have your dream

But in the end the stress of the ongoing

Financial toll killed him

How dare you say he didn’t take care of himself

When all he did was try to ease your way

What the fuck

Will you wake up

Do I have to carry this rage?

I lost him so young

Do you even care where it took me

Into the depths of addiction

And is it even fair to feel this anger now

Am I just a victim?

I do believe in love

I reach out now when I can

To those who will help me

To love and keep loving

Because bitterness is a poison

But sometimes it is so very hard

Not feeling I have the power

All I know is that my heart is pure

But why did Jesus say

The meek shall inherit the earth

Is our anger and fighting all in vain

Or will those with all of the power

Always tread

With hobnail boots

Over our wounded hearts and souls

If we cannot find any possible way

To claim our power?

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. We often, are forced to, carry these things that aren’t ours to carry in the first place, and, we had no choice, as we were, way too young, but, as we grow older, we need to, realize, that all of that, wasn’t, our, responsibilities, and, we eventually, let our selves, off the hook, it’s just that, this is, usually, really hard for us to do… because, it takes, a long, long time, and sometimes, we get, stuck…
