Find me



I think I've lost 
something.
I felt that feeling 
something is missing
But I couldn't say
what?

I sat too long
 in hopes...
I would remember
just what 
had gone away.

I stood up
to walk around
that feeling of loss
wouldn't go away.

I stared out the window
hoping my mind
would reach out and find
~something

I tried to distracted my thoughts
by not thinking
"what could be missing?"

Maybe, it would find me.

That didn't work well
the loss was heavy on my mind
I needed to know
"what have I left behind?"

It was like a black hole 
had filled the space 
where memories
had once been placed.

The struggle my thoughts 
put to my mind
made me wonder
was it me I had left behind?

I live in a world where my thoughts are my own
I haven't shared my dreams 
with anyone.

I've built a safe around my self 
where even I have no key.

Maybe the something I have forgotten
is 
me?

Life

A fish who longs to be in water A bird who can not wait to fly A snake who wishes to recoil  A mole searching for better ground Sky so lifted to give space Moon afraid to show his shape Hides behind a blanket of night Stars blink to share their light Oceans anger crashes down Beaches lying with the sand Rocks climb to stand tall Wind watches them all fall  Mountain tall enough to roar Let loose his inner being Earth was burned to begin again. Gave life back to the living.

It Begins With A Spark

It begins with a spark Ignites into a flame It charges through your chest It fills your lungs Every breath you take burns within your throat Your eyes water Your head spins Your legs are too heavy to move You reach out... Hoping to touch something Hoping to feel something Needing to hold anything for support The tips of your fingers reach out a little farther It's difficult to see through the fog And then... Something is there Something to give you hope that not all is lost There it is, almost out of reach, but still there With one last belief in your own heart, you take that leap of faith And hold onto the one thing you believe can save you. You leap forward~ ~Towards Love!

Closed Heart

There's a door over there no one uses any more. Some have forgotten it exists. The locks were changed.  Dust moved in. Not even a strong wind could get you in. The keeper cries, occasionally. For once she shared the beauty that was within. Till she learned it must be hidden. Now, she waits! No tears to shed, no laughter to hear. Everything good is gathered ~ in there. No one knows what she waits for. Maybe, not even she. Maybe a day when she might find, courage to open the door, and leave the key behind? Maybe someone good will see. All that she was meant to be. But, till then she guards the door. Never asking for anything more. Who is strong enough to see, The girl who hides behind a golden key?
