Good Times

love
lust
passion
all the same

mind 
body 
soul
can be separate

tears
scrapes
bruises
are all painful

sick, faint

torn, crushed

washed up like a lush

tired, restless

lost, confused

caught up in a mess

friends
family
God
are all present

joy
luck 
happiness
are good wishes

smile, laugh

sing, dance

let yourself be free!

Interesting composition; it reflects the 'dis-jointedness' of life somehow. The words you have chosen to group together are probably reflections of how you are feeling maybe? 'mind, body, soul, can be separate' yet you have grouped them together..... or maybe I'm just reading to much into it! Must be feeling philosophical. Welll done anyway - I enjoyed it! Helen x
