Month: May 2015

A tear in her eye, runs down her cheek, he’s holding her tight, their love is unique, her happy and sad with joy and with pain, this man is her world, life never the same, a future of laughs a future of love, this new life of theirs a gift from above, but a tear of regret of wasted years a tear of new hope that now she is his   

Walking holding hands, sand and water in their toes, love and the perfect evening, the sun does start to set, another perfect evening, love binds them tight together, the summer of their life, a life to spend together, till the sunset of their life, hands held tight, love life forever 

  
 

Across the ocean, along the sand, and wings give her flight, she soars above the endless clouds at peace and all alright, but unlike Icarus she doesn’t fall because she knows her truth, for she’s a butterfly with wings of silk, in love with all that’s right 

  

Freedom of a butterfly to dance amongst the flowers, happy and contented, spending precious hours finding inner peace away form hate and pain, time so that you can simply be you again

  

Reflections of beauty

Reflections of love

Reflections of pain felt from above

Time is the healer

Time casts it’s spell

Love conquers hate 

Love banishes hell

So come now my beauty 

Wipe away that tear 

For reflections of truth will promise you all 

  

Moments of peace, moments of self, moments surround me, moments of doubt, moments of pity, moments so still, sitting in silence, moments that fill, heart full of longing, heart full of love, moments so tender, time just enough

I had a friend in a virtual way, we never met but talked each day, as time went by, truths where shared and as time went by I thought she cared, I saved her life one dark day, and she saved me in other ways, but life moved on and we drifted apart and my virtual friend just fades away and I’m happy now my life’s compete a chapter closed a book complete 

  

The barren plane, desolate and empty, shades of brown and red, blue sky filling the world, big and never ending, reaching extending filling her view, the ground is dry, the wind hot and offering no comfort and the sun beats down on her neck.

  
Ahead there is shade, a big rock, like a sundial casting shadow as the hours tick on, relentless, the ground crunches as she walks, dust rising with each step.
The sun burning her skin, sweat evaporating leaving a dull ache as she moves, she needs the shade needs protection from the sun and from her life. 

  
A lizard clings the the rock, darting in a spiral around claiming it’s territory, defiant of her presents, as she steps into the shade, at first there’s no respite, her eyes adjust and she sits, warm rock supporting her back, her legs leaving tracks as she starches them out. She drinks some water from her bottle, it’s warm and dusty tasting, she closes her eyes the effort of continuing almost to much, but she’s strong, she will not give in, will not be beaten, she will prevail, endure, he has beaten her, raped her, scared her, and tried to destroy her very soul, but her soul is not his, not even hers, it belongs to a greater power, a greater presents, pure love, pure joy, forgiving of sin and all enveloping, he will never own her soul, he can crush her body but her sprit will survive will endure, confident in the knowledge, that true power protects the core of her being.  
With her eyes closed she says thanks, asks for guidance and asks for forgiveness of both her own sins and those of her abuser. And she’s at peace, content in the wonder and love.
She opens her eyes, and sees a green shoot, defiant, pushing from under the rock, reaching in hope toward the sky, and as she looks the desert dissolves, replaced by the bedroom sun reaching through the window signalling the start of a new day, the sounds of morning enveloping her and she’s content, in the knowledge that there is hope, and that God heard her prayer, and trusting in his love.

They danced all night, laughed and talked, that perfect night, that should never end, and as the sun rises their almost home, alone in their need for togetherness, he holds her close and won’t let go, she’s all he ever needs, but as the sun rises above the dawn, their perfect night must end, until such times and together again the essence of a dream, for one day soon the magic returns and dancing happens again 

  

Lost in love, small and alone, the world retreats awayLeaving space for romance, dancing and for play

Sand in their toes, wind in their hair, without a care in the world

They are together, at last alone, lost in each other’s love, this time together, this time alone is truly a gift from above
