I walk this road alone, untraveled
Dusty, dark, and grey
Head held high and boots, untattered
Sexy swagger all the way
Free my soul from his name
Walking alone in this pain
If I keep these boots shiny
You won't call me a phony
For not crying his name
How can I cower?
How can I cry?
I keep my boots shiny!
I hold my head high!
The bruises are hiding
Under my skin
In my brain, on my heart
Like a monster within
I ask of you kindly
Please let me go
Take your hands off my heart
And your foot off my soul
I look up to the heavens
To help guide my way
The stars look a brighter
Than they did yesterday
My heart sings your name when I close my eyes
Despite all the pain
despite all the lies
Setting fire to my dreams
I gave you the match
You watched in delight
I finally gasped
I walk this road alone, untravelled
Head head high and boots, untattered
Sexy swagger all the way
I’ve never felt this way before.
The joy comes from the depths of my soul.
I don’t know how to explain this feeling.
It’s a feeling that is beyond words of description.
I’ve never imagined so much passion from the heart.
It’s almost like I’ve been set on fire with a thought.
All my best dreams are coming alive in the moment.
When I spend the days with you, I’m all that God inspired.
I’ve never expected to be so alive in my spirit.
It’s like my dreams are burning bright within me.
When I feel like reaching out to another heart I know…
The compassion within is truly stirred up by your love.
I’ve never been someone to share my deepest feelings.
With you, I can’t do anything but be vulnerable and helpless.
It’s as if you’ve taken me into a new dawning of acceptance…
Completed my need for someone to recognize my depths.
I’ve never known another soul that could ignite my fire.
Your love encourages me and reassures me with all it inspires.
With you, I know that I am someone who loves without conditions…
And I want to give to you… my heart, my hope, my deepest feelings.
I’ve never been more certain of my love for another.
With you, my prayers for true love have found true meaning.
I know that you are the one who God sent to free my soul…
Making me into a heart that knows joy beyond all thoughts.
I’ve never loved this way before in my entire life.
With you, love that is true enlightens my very soul.
You awaken my heart to dreams of truth that says it all…
With a word from the heart… love that knows no bounds.
I’ve never been more certain of another person.
My love for you is excruciating – it hurts to the core …
Reminding me why I can’t love more and more and more…
Because with you, I am giving all that I am for sure.
I’ve never known anyone in my life or story…
Who could reach me with their thoughts and dreams…
The way you can – with all the peace that there is,
Feelings that shed all fear and feelings that are oh, so real.

Stop and Breathe
Sometimes I need to stop and breathe
sit still and calm my busy mind.
Reflect upon my inner seethe
collect my thoughts and then I’ll find,
a clearer me,
refreshed I’ll be.
To plan ahead, my angst shall sheathe
so, I’m longer in a bind.
Create myself a lovely wreathe
that when I need, I can unwind
to free my soul,
retain control.

Somber is the color of the day...
Window glass distorts the view, of the dreary afternoon
Prisms of light cavorting outside, are reflected from the dew
and rainbows are splashed, from an old pewter lamp
as if to divert me of my mood
While quietly, I sit, and ponder it all, my pen is close, my chin in hand
Pinned back, my strands, a sweater, old, is pulled around the chill
woven in colors, of various yarns, as varied as thoughts that take me away
My mind is lost in a wakened dream
While trees are tossed about in winter wind,
and leaves lay dead beneath the snowy mounds
a fire glows, and a storm now keeps me bound
One shard of light from a neighbor's home
across the hill, a distant mile
The dimness in a room from winter sighs...
then something sparks a word ...a line, .. a verse, ... a lullaby ...
The day is sadder than the words I had found...
so somber is the day that keeps me bound
I hide away this moment....a cup of tea, a Golden Lab for company..
One peek beyond the distant hill, a touch of sun
A glimpse of mountain, pastures deep, my dog that sleeps...
A momentary chance to free my soul
In just a brief, but deep departure from the ordinary...
I explore my thoughts, search my heart, wonder what this day will bring...
I watched old memories, long kept cold, ...unfold as if a dream
Unsort, relive, those worlds untold....
Exploring new words, I now have found
Stumbling through my mind, unintended
Watching the words tumble as if unattended...
Unfolding, exploding, and falling in chaos
Paying no mind to the reader's conception
Cleansing, pleasing, as my soul fits the pieces...
Beneficial.... to the reader...will it matter? Who knows?...
But a satisfying journey traveled and found
by myself....and for myself, ....as the one who's creating...
Looking out from blurry windows...a dark day continues ...
on a somber colored day, that kept me bound.....

"Amid the jagged shadows of mossy leafless boughs;"
I sit alone in the Winter of my life
To ponder, the length of years by my own design
Here in this dim-lit realm of shades
I need to leave love's tribulations
on the barren floor of my mind
and free my soul from love's grief
that flows fluid upon the invisible silence
of wished filled yesterdays that have gone
with my lost horizons painted in fool's gold reliance
Perhaps, I will remember a happier time
when the light of life filled my desires
in rendered emotions of inlaid passions
and dreams of wondrous wonder
Where footprints had yet left imprints
upon the virgin landscape of my soul I once cast asunder
Beneath these leafless boughs,
my amber thoughts lay scattered across my memory
as I wrestle reality away from the illusion
and once again fill my empty eyes with tomorrow
Before my life's Winter comes with its dark cold
and buries me beneath these leafless boughs
next to the grave of the love I sold

sponsor...Dear Heart-Wisshkobi Ode
Imagine that there is something beyond imagination
an oxymoron of course but a real task nevertheless
There may be no God not even spirituality suffices
but the whole is much greater than the sum of all parts
The Universe grants freedom from self-righteousness
offers me to let go off megalomanic delusions of grandeur
makes my light shine in illumination and its shadows
paints a picture with no centre other than kindness and love
Unorthodox and conforming to nothing but compassion
the tiny wee little Me takes its right place in the crowd
at liberty to breathe feel think and reason for meaning
to resonate reflect condense for a moment in infinite time
Like a novel it reaches out from beginning to the end
states a point here and there and connects small dots
that swell into an epic and ephemeral narration to tell
soon forgotten but a blob on the pages as good as it can
Another book will take its place on the library shelf
liberated from its companions to start a new venture
to reconstruct and make its mark on literal essence
Fly free my soul and expound my purpose for free

Take my hand, precious Lord
And lead me toward home
I long to build a life that You have
Blessed, a life that is more than
Merely materialistic things
More than just my needs
But a life that is filled up with
Your insights, inspirations
Your dedication to my faith
I want to bring You my hopes
With assurance that I always know
You have everything worked out
I don’t need to worry or plan
You have it all there in your hands
Everything I need and all I could want
All my blessings poured out on me
Through a love that I so often burning
Fervently, inside me with joy and light
Feelings that are more than alive
They’re like a fire falling from the sky
Sanctifying my entire life, my heart
My soul and more… every part of my love
You are my wisdom and my strength
You lift me up when I’m so very weak
You carry me onward when I’m so afraid
You always love me and make a way
To rain down tenderness across my spirit
Free my mind from its darkest fears
Reminding me why I need You so much
You’re the answer to my every want
You keep me sane and inspire me to cope
With everything that comes, all the worry
The loss, the loneliness, the anxiety
You make a way where no way has been
You see me through the nightmares and dread
Free my soul from its place of terror
Guide my heart toward my sweetest desires
You silence the doubts that plague my soul
Show me just the right way to go toward hope
You prepare the way so that my journey home
Is filled with peace that quiets every storm
You are the light that fills up the night
Bringing me warmth dancing through my faith
You linger here with me when I’m so alone
Giving me assurance that I always have your love
And whatever comes, wherever I might go
You’ll be there with me, showing me the path
That will lead me toward the home that awaits
The home on high where my friends will never die
And where I will go when my journey is done
I seek You and your love above everything I know
You’re more than life – You’re the greatest gift
From a God who knows my heart and my soul
And gives me the hope of a heaven where I’ll know
You are the answer that saved my heart and soul
Freed me from the sorrow of a life with no hope!
An eternal rainbow in the sky
Blue as the pain in those tiger eyes
Green as the fields of yesterday
Luscious, sparkling fruit in winter ray
Grey hides both black and white
A butterfly, a symphony that sounds alright
Indigo a harbinger of storms
That over the sky in savageness roams
Orange a dancer, sultry and sweet
Wearing anklets of stars on delicate feet
Red the crimson blood in my heart
Those flowers and apples in some cart
Violet a fragile lilac bloom
The brilliant plume, the hidden perfume
Yellow the sweet juice from the mango
A million lamps lit in a row
An eternal rainbow in the sky
Free my soul and let it fly

I don't want to.
You are the light that pierced my dark soul,
A rainbow in stormy times, but also the bitter breeze of regret.
My heart fed on the crumbs of your love,
But now those same crumbs are like shards of glass in my chest.
I searched for falling stars in your eyes,
And found endless nights in the snares of longing.
I don't want to tread in places scattered with broken memories,
To hear songs that carry the echo of your laughter.
In the beats of my heart, your memory still resounds,
But I want to bury these tremors under a clear sky,
To free my soul, to untie the knots of pain,
To forget the tearful dance, fulfilling the spell of separation.
The magic of melancholy intertwines with the bitter longing,
In a dream crushed by cold and painful reality.
I loved you like a chimera, an unshakable mystery,
But I no longer want to walk the same thorny paths.
Under the silent moonlight, I will find peace in the shadows,
In the cloak of night, I will lose the voices of the past.
I don't want to reminisce about the glory and suffering that defined us,
I want to drown in forgetfulness and be bound to the future.
So, let me close the doors of the enchanted past,
To step into new dawns without the pain of love's remnants.
I don't want to seek the stars in your eyes,
I don't want to know the taste of past love's bitterness anymore.
I don't want to make you cry again,
To share my tears and pain with you.
I don't want us to fall again into the abyss of these feelings,
Fear keeps me away from the spell of our past love.
In a new sky, without the shadows of past love,
I will find my peace, singing melancholy in solitude.
May the magic of forgetting embrace us, turning the pages of life,
In a silent symphony of hidden redemption.
Embrace the Journey
Every breath, a whisper from the stars,
Reminding me I am more than this moment,
More than this skin, this doubt, this fear.
I am the light that breaks through clouds,
The storm that rises, not to destroy, but to cleanse.
Each step I take, I take in love
A dance with the divine, the rhythm of the universe,
A reminder that I am here, not by chance,
But by purpose, by strength, by grace.
For every storm is not a battle to be won,
But a lesson to be learned, a truth to be lived.
I count my blessings, not my problems,
For even in the darkest days, I shine.
I am the creator of my peace, the master of my joy.
Every day, another chance to grow, to rise,
To be better, to live louder, to love deeper.
Forgiveness is the gift I give myself,
Releasing the weight of yesterday,
Knowing that in forgiving others, I free my soul.
I hold no grudges, carry no chains
Only wings, ready to soar, ready to be.
And in this journey, I honour my ancestors,
Their wisdom flows through me like rivers of gold,
Their strength, my foundation, their dreams, my legacy.
I stand on their shoulders, reaching for the stars,
Unafraid, unapologetic, unstoppable.
So let the rain fall, let the winds howl,
For I do not wait for the storm to pass
I dance in the rain, I laugh in the wind,
And I rise, again and again.
