Darkness to light

 

 

When darkness ensues around you

Like a swirling abyss

What can you do?

When it feels like you

Are being sucked down

Through a tunnel of Hell

To the dark dankness

Of your worst fear

What can you do?

You hold on for the ride

And hope it is over soon

Like the rollercoaster

You rode last summer

At the amusement park

You close your eyes

And try to keep breathing

And you hold on for your life

With all of your might

And when you see

A glimmer of light

At the end of the tunnel

You focus on that light

And hone in on it

Until it becomes bigger

And brighter and lighter

You watch it

And wait for it

To come closer to you

And when you are finally

Back into the light of day

And back into the glow of the light

Only then can you

Breathe a sigh of relief

Because you made it through…

What is love?

 

 

What is love?

Is it a feeling…

A touch…

An emotion…

A sense of something

Much bigger than yourself?

Do you feel love in your heart?

Does it make your heart swell?

Does it overflow through your being?

Or fit perfectly like a glove

Inside your beating heart?

Does it make you feel giddy?

Does it feel heavy?

Or light as a feather?

Does it encompass you

In a feeling of warmth and light?

Do you spread it and share it?

Is it joyful?

Is it heavy and creates a depth

Of feeling that overwhelms you?

Does it take you soaring to new heights?

Would you do anything for it?

Would you protect it with all your might?

Or fight for it?

Would you die for it?

 

Whatever love is…

It is wonderful

And I embrace it everyday

Like a bear hug wrapped tightly

Around my soul and my being.

On this journey we call life

I am honored to love

And to be loved…

The Gatekeeper

 

When you think you are done,

The raging waters come back

Full force threatening to take you under

Drowning you in feelings and in your tears

You say… Oh… But I’ve already healed and evolved

Yet your world comes crumbling apart

The Inner One wants to be heard…

No- she demands to be seen and heard.

It feels like a loss of control

Letting this child within

Out to be seen and to be heard

She holds the secrets

In the palms of her scarred hands

The bloodstains no longer there

Yet she knows it will never go away.

 

She is the Gatekeeper

The guardian of the secrets

Will you shove her down

Or let her speak her truth

She’s weary and tired of hurting

And she wants to be free to soar

To free her soul and her laughter

Can you hear her sweet laughter?

The Gatekeeper is knocking

On the door to your heart

Will you keep it latched

Or let her out?

Only time will tell.

Spirit Horse

I walk through a field of lilies
Underneath the moonlight’s gleam
And catch a glimpse of a herd
Of spirit horses in the distance
As I cautiously approach
I spot one that beckons to me
And I call to him softly
He walks with silent steps
Over to nudge my hand
Encouraging me to climb
Upon his silken black back
As I mount the Great Spirit stallion
And give him a little gentle pat
The herd takes off into the blackened night
The beauty of their freedom
And their muscular powerful bodies
Galloping fiercely up into the
Star filled sky and toward the moon
I grab onto the mane as my
Spirit Horse takes flight
The sound of hoof beats passing by
Riding wild and free
Across the midnight sky
I want to ride the winds of change
With the Spirit Horse beneath me
Nostrils flaring, eyes opened wide
Riding wild and riding free
The wind blowing through my hair
I hold tight to my Spirit Horse’s
Long silken mane
For my spirit too
Is raging and untamed
Breaking free from the
Cages that bind me
And hold me back…
I ride bareback and free as I breathe
New life into my unchained spirit
I ride feeling the power
Of the Spirit Horse’s muscles
Vibrating through me.
Across the skies we ride
And fly through the night
Through shining stars and planets
Galloping faster and faster
As swirls of light pass by
I feel the exhilaration of flying free
With my wild untamed beast
And my soul is changed
And I know I will ride
My beautiful Spirit Horse
Forever more…

Soul Sisters

 

A meeting of two souls

Soul sisters in different parts of the world

Joined by a golden thread

Invisible to the rest of the world

But there as surely as can be

Binding them together for eternity.

 

Two little girls from long ago pasts
so innocently pure and sweet
They survived and are strong inside
while helping one another
feel whole and complete

 

Who would have thought?

The two would ever meet

Even if only by the written word

With dreams of two little inner children

Holding hands and playing together.

 

Their experiences bond them

As they picnic beside the stream

Letting the warm sun lull them to sleep

Two innocent little souls, holding hands

Sleeping side by side, content to just be

 

Soul Sisters for Eternity
