The Woman Within


 Tangled Web of Emotions
 

Tangled Web of Emotions
 
This tangled web of emotions
Swirling about in my head
Fills my heart with an aching
Throughout my body it spreads
The loss something you dearly love
Rips your soul nearly in two
You're left to cope with the heartache
And trying to start anew
Tears flow down and you release
The feelings you feel inside
Grief threatens to pull you down
But work through it until it subsides
Changes come and changes go
We experience them everyday
Nobody ever said that life was easy
Yet sometimes we expect it to be that way
Through this tangled web of emotions
I'll gain more wisdom etched with tears
And in my life, these lessons I've learned
Will carry me through the years.

 Goodbye Sweet Sophie
 

Goodbye Sweet Sophie
 
Although she was just a cat,
she touched our hearts
and brought us love ten-fold
I never thought the day would come
when she would have to leave us
when her health would fail
or that she would grow old
 
Saying goodbye is never easy
as it grieves the body and soul
Our precious velvety furry love ball
had us wrapped around her little cat-paw
She made us smile and she made us laugh
She was such a joy to behold
This little kitty will be greatly missed
She was unique and I'm pretty sure
she was one who broke the mold.
 
But now she's gone, and we'll have to move on
and hold the love and memories inside
Our beautiful kitty has now earned her angel wings
we know she's at peace and not hurting anymore
and one day we'll again be by her side
 
Sophie will live forever in our hearts and soul
She's on the other side of Rainbow Bridge now
Sweet kitty we promise we'll see you again
Your spirit can run free to romp and play
So until that time comes when we can get there sweet Soph,
just wait patiently for us at the other end.
 
Until then, our love to you always sweet Sophie

 Reflections of Me....
 

Reflections of Me...
 
The water shimmering in the summer moonlight
reflecting an image in the water's sheen
It is my own liken image
Yet as I look into the reflection
What do I see?
 
I see a woman who is wise beyond her years
Who feels and knows of things unseen.
I see a young child whose innocence
and playfulness is what laughter is made of.
I see a young angry teenager who embraces
her rage inside and molds it into expression.
I see a woman filled with a wonderful humor
and a quick wit who is very resourceful
who loves every aspect of living her life fully and completely.
I see a survivor who has channeled her pain and her experiences
into her many talents and her creativity.
 
I see many talents and abilities that she had to teach herself
everything she knows because she can only ever rely on who she is
and who she was always meant to be.
So many threads holding all of the pieces together
Some days she feels like she is unraveling apart at the seams
while other days she feels the confidence and self assurance.
She is proud of who she has become and the journey that
led her to the present moment.
 
So who is the woman, girl, child in the water's reflection?
That would be me.
Do I like what I see?
Guess so, as there's no other way to be.
Just me.

 Slip Away....
 

Slip Away...
 
When this life tells you it is time to let go
to make that final journey, don't be afraid
for when you feel yourself slipping away,
I will be there right by your side
gently easing your spirit homeward bound.
 
Slip away my love into my strong arms
lean on me and feel the beating of my heart.
Can you hear it? Can you feel it?
It beats in tune with your own beating heart.
 
Take my hand in yours my love
and we will head into the setting sun
when our time here is done...
Together we will slip away into forever.

 Changes
 

Changes

 

Falling leaves drop to the ground,

Golden embers of glowing red, orange and yellow

The winds of change blow gently

Carrying each separate leaf away from the tree

Plucked from its branches, its root of life

Carried away only to shrivel and crumble to dust

In the cold winds that swirl around.

The changing of the seasons, they say…

The fallen autumn leaves like my past

Crumpled forgotten dust drifting

Through the winds that blow in my mind

Cold, hibernated, hidden in a harsh bitter world

As I struggle to hold myself together

Through the painful journey of my recovery

Trying to reclaim the very essence of myself

Changes again...

A different change

Not cold, not bitter, not sad,

But warm and comforting

The sun comes out from behind the clouds

To shine brightness upon everything

Dissipating the darkness, the hurt, the pain

New buds appear on the trees

Flowers sprout up out of the earth

To peep out at their new surroundings

Fresh grass growth covers the ground

A rebirth of sorts

Changes bringing forth new life

New hope and new dreams

A change for the better

Changing me…
