You sleep well because you are loved. I'm nestled in your arms because I'm protected. I'm drowning in your desire and love spell. Your smooth ebb and flow. You have seize me with your gaze. And you did it so well. That's why you are so loved. There was no goodbyes. I am awaken with sunshine and hello. Still smitten when our fingers cross and our palms are met. Freshly picked hibiscus with dew still on every petal. You are forever loved and more. I have collided with the time and stars of this untainted love. So loved you are. our loving innocence intertwine with romance and opals.

I summon my inner demons to subside
and calm the turbulence inside
I still the waters of my mind
and press the button to rewind
back to a peaceful place I’d been
where blessed nature was serene
dawn would call me I’d listen with my eyes
to tranquil things and waited for sunrise
I love to think back to quiet hours in early morn
where at the cottage I would feel reborn

I calmed myself intentionally
For my back was breaking
Under the anger of paperwork
Nothing puts me in a worse mood
I slow my breathing, telling myself we can do this
A raging fire of hatred is not easily tamped down
It is not what I wanted to do today
Or any other day. My neck, back and spine are cracking.
There is pressure that is ready to explode.
You are okay, I sooth myself.
Reminding my child self that it is not a daily thing.
We can do this, I reassure her. It is only once a year.
She bats her eyes at me, making me laugh.
A palatable start. My breathing begins to slow.
My eyes close, and I take the nap we both needed.

What am I If it weren’t for you
You saved me
You talked to me
You calmed and soothed me
I learned patience with you
I learned love through you
You were always there for me
What is me if it weren’t for you

my storm has calmed as a result of you
my lightening is now charitable due to your influence
my wind is now easygoing thanks to your astonishing gift of love
i am now a quietly humble rainfall with a shy, southern charm
you are the immovable umbrella that now protects me from all the manmade elements

I could remember like if it was yesterday,
When I felt the wall were closing in on me,
I often sat with my Radio and listened to any melody mostly contemporary,
I once told someone music saved my life,
They never believed me though,
There was a time when words of songs reached out to me ,
I related and felt I was not alone in the world,
My usual Sunday routine was sitting by the beach listening to contemporary music,
It my way of reflecting,meditating and finding inner peace,
It helped me cope when inside of me screamed for solace,
Music is a powerful aspect of life often taken for granted but its means alot,
At least to me though,
It kept me calm and together,
It never failed me I never fell apart
