Sleep, uninterrupted.
Owned solely by the dreamer.
Clear of thought…
of interference.
Producing vivid comfort;
a sense of belonging,
replenished.
Held safe.
Untouched dreams,
drift aimlessly.
Rested.
Awake.
Sleep, uninterrupted.
Sleep

A story with no finish…
Your name now a stranger,
in person and in ink.
My heart held a safe distance,
from the torturous brink,
of a misplaced belonging
that carried no weight,
the emotive, sad rivers
still continue to abate
and courage, now magnified;
my soul stands, to applaud.
Gently nudged forward,
newly born, self-assured.
Within the safety of worth,
the lies now can diminish.
Another chapter unwritten,
of a story with no finish…
Destiny Whispers
And with tomorrow,
a new day will dawn.
The sky will be cleansed
and made whole once more.
Destiny whispers to me,
wiping the slate clean.
The debris of pain washed away,
returning me to source,
standing as one,
in the spotlight of my life.
“Love After Love” by Derek Walcott
The time will come
when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other’s welcome,
and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you
all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
Follow my lead…
No longer coerced
I am following my lead
My moments expanding
My soul, I have freed
Growing, unstunted
Unconsciously held
My wings are unfurling
At once self-propelled
I spin in my centre
Am whole through my core
The subterfuge’d sadness
Shown straight through the door
Reasons unquantified…
Just not worth the words
Previous programming
So laughable and absurd
Freedom… A feeling
All shiny and new
My head is held high
I know just what to do
Actions speak louder than words!
Innumerable options, all present in time
The stumbling block just the voice in your mind
To say you’re not worthy; a veritable crime
Actions speak louder than words!
Don’t waste all your life, making list upon list
Or expect a quick cure from an online druggist
It’s pointless and futile; it’s plain defeatist
Actions speak louder than words!
So you think you’re not worthy, so why give a damn?
You’re bumbling along nicely, believing the sham
Asleep on autopilot, in a matrix program
Actions speak louder than words!
You’ve made the excuses and justified them all
Yet you still feel unsafe and your glass is half full
Can you see you’ve created the means to keep small?
Actions speak louder than words!
There’s only this moment; it’s never too late
Don’t be hard on yourself, there’s no need to berate
Take that first step, I guarantee you’ll feel great
Actions speak louder than words!
So believe you are perfect; you are meant to soar
There’s nothing you can’t do, when you trust from your core
You’re magnificent! Unique! So use your allure!
Actions speak louder than words!
