Who am I
Who am I? But an echo of fate yet struck A muddle of loss and hope A dance yet spun Or die yet cast Who am I? Am I anything or everything until I am nothing Is it not only then that my story is written I can be defined If I am not until…

Poetry to ignite the soul: Lost in a sea of pain
Find me… Beyond the shore, we’re the darkness meets the black. Where hope lays beyond the horizon and you are asked to trust without knowing, it is there, waiting to be discovered. Left a drift in a sea of despair, lonely in the echo of an endless night. Clutching at energy to stay a float,…

Poetry to Ignite the Soul: The life I never had a chance to live

Poem: Rescue
No one is coming to rescue you. No words can save you from the fear of breaking free. No shinning knight or wise women will come to sweep you from this place. There is no happy ending except the one you create. No saviour who has saved a happy day for your pain. Only you…

Poem: This Coat
Gosh it has been a long time since I posted any poetry. As part of my recent therapy sessions Chris and I have been exploring why I carry this continued guilt and balance that things were my fault. I have failed to find an answer so in an attempt to expose some of the underlying…
