  • Feeling my feelings

    Feeling my feelings

    Catch myself hiding, am I really okay? Notice emotions, too scared to say. Fear of my feelings holds them at bay; denigrate and deny, wish they’d all go away. When talking with people, put the focus on them. Avoid facing emotions, ignoring overwhelm. Unfamiliar feelings, inability to name. Keep forcing down, compartmentalize shame. Avoidance and…

  • New Meaning

    New Meaning

    Do you really listen to the words that you hear? Are you paying attention, is the meaning clear? Does the mind rush ahead, a reply at the ready? Let each sentence be absorbed, metabolized slowly. Do I really listen to thoughts as they’re spoken? A struggle to make meaning when the filter is broken. So…

    Surrender to remember. Learn to return. Train to remain.

  • Overwhelm

    Overwhelm

    Overwhelmed by thoughts. Unfocused. Distraught. Can’t do what ought to be easy. Drowning in emotion. Paralyzed. Frozen. Invisibly broken, soul destroying. Overwhelmed by feelings, Once repressed, now revealing. Can’t mask or make meaning to soothe. Crushed by life. Head locked in a vice. Is this the price of truth?

  • Curiosity

    Curiosity

    Delve deep in my memory, beyond the limits of recall. What have I forgotten, paid no heed to at all? As energies surface, float into awareness. A dreamscape, as elusive as a whispering caress. Dancing towards me, softly, sweet and tender. Tug at my heartstrings, a familiar surrender. Breathe in the magic of memory unfolding,…

    Writing from the Heart

    Everything I write is, first and foremost, for me.It is both a privilege and a luxury. I write to heal, to understand;to shift emotions out of my system. I write to move energy; to have a thought move from my brain, down through my arm and into my hand and my fingers, and flow through…

    How to be …

    Lead with the body not with the head. Be 100% present to all that is said. Listen intently, follow the thread. Trust in the process, forge a new path ahead. Make friends with your life, play your trump card. Find your tribe, and love them hard. Hold them close, in high regard. Trust it’s safe…

  • Here & Now

    Here & Now

    You can’t control the people around you. All you can do is work on yourself. Take some time to reflect and look inwards. You’re not responsible for anyone else. Observe, don’t absorb the energies around you. Take some time to protect yourself. Stay grounded and mindful of your own actions. Set an example for everyone…

  • Can we talk?

    Can we talk?

    How dare you call me, then talk all about you? Have you learned nothing after all we’ve been through? No questions or concern for my well-being. Just lies and self pity. expecting me to fix things. Do you ever stop, take a good look at yourself? Are you even aware of anyone else? Are you…

  • Surrender

    Surrender

    Drop into the body, move through the freeze. Let the rhythm take you to find release. Does the body move energy? The mind thinks it knows. Let energy move, the body swept up in the flow. Expand past the body, as one with spirit. Above and beyond, the skies the limit. Breathe in compassion, the…
