Life projects you forward
Sometimes it may feel like you’re on the top of a roller coaster without a seat belt about to fly out
You may hold onto what you can
Grasp what you can
What feels familiar
What feels safe.
Are you reaching for outside sources?
People, places, things?
Or are you finding it within yourself?
Safety within Spirit
Safety within body
Safety within mind
Safety within heart
Safety within soul
Within
Touching all that is within
Touching the light within
There you will find All
There you will find Love
Love of self
Love of all there is
Within

My life and soul journey have brought me here,
The stories of the past no longer resonate within my BEing & Soul.
I step into what I always have been, but was shrouded & feared to let show
Beyond the dark shadows that surrounded me like a deep fog within the forest.
I release & let them fall away as burnt embers of the Phoenix.
I rise re~created, connected & aligned with the trueness of my Soul,
All that I aspire to BE
All that I AM.

May you know the touch of kindness
May you know that truth seeks you
May you know that warmth still can touch you in the deepness of the cave
May you know that the sun shines above the ceiling that is over your head
May you know that you have the power to open the ceiling up
May you know that you are light
May you know that peace is within you
May you know that you are worthy
May you know that you are love
May you know that you ARE LOVED

It’s been so long since our eyes locked
I’ve been feeling you
Your essence and presence
Showing up in my dreams and visions again
But even my third eye sight didn’t see this…
In the corner of the second floor bar
I wasn’t going to be there
I planned on spending a relaxing day at home
Last minute plans brought me to watch the big game
Was going to be sitting in the corner of King Neptune’s lair
Last minute changes brought me to the corner of the second floor bar
“Serendipitous moments are to come” whispered in my ear as I made my way there
The corner table was empty as the ball started to fly
A work call brought me to the chilly outside patio
Coming back inside I took my seat facing the corner of the second floor bar
Where TVs flashed images of players running and playing their best
I unexpectedly found familiarity facing me
Those big blue eyes and smile I know so well but not yet directed at me
In the familiar there was unfamiliarity and I was unsure that the two were the same
Quickly a game of locking eyes began but acknowledgement still laid to the side
My mind raced, could it be?
Of all the places, in all the moments
In the corner of the second floor bar
A simple wave & smile and I made my way over
You held my hand and kissed my cheek as we briefly said what was new
Mirrored reflections flashing back and forth
Would we be strong enough to see and heal?
Heal all the spoken and unspoken words
A sacred space understanding and vulnerability?
Our conversation over as I was sitting back at my own table
Ten feet was between us
So close but still so far away
A wish for just you & me in the middle of all the others and noise
I screamed to you “I love you can’t you see??!” within my head
The fans screaming at the TVs overpowered my plea.
As you said good bye ~
We’ll be in touch
No timelines, no promises
All in the corner of a second floor bar
You & me
In the corner of a second floor bar

I feel my old self burning in the Amber Flame
Melting away parts of old
A newness ready to come alive
I’m ready – the stretching and molding are continuous
But I willingly step into what the Universe is bringing me.
Like clockwork thoughts of you creep up
They don’t ever really seem to go away
But lately, lately there’s been a change in the wind
Free will dancing in the flames
Space and silence still so prevalent
Sometimes it feels as if you’re no longer on this plane
Your voice an inaudible whisper
Your touch a brush of a feather
Long blown away with the change in the seasons
As if you’re a ghost from the past
I see you, I see me, I see us burning in the Amber Flame
Melting away ways of old
A newness I’m not quite sure of
I find myself alone again
Alone in the silence
It’s still here as you left it
The want for a love so deep burns in the Amber Flame
Melting away parts of old
I’m not sure what’s to be made anew
Promises seem to be falling away as are the leaves of Fall
With you or another, I’m opening my heart
To love in the deep fire Amber Flames
A spark in my heart ignites into an Amber Flame

Loud
Your silence is still so loud
And I’m still thinking out loud
Three years have ticked by
Some moments louder than others
And I’m starting to question the crystal ball
Visions of true love seen by both our eyes
We know each other’s story and we know each other’s pain
I’m still here and you’re still here
The summer just as cold as the winter
It doesn’t seem to matter how I send my love ~ near or far
Me reaching for you is as empty as the silence you left here
Your silence is still so loud
And I’m still thinking out loud
Three years have ticked by
Some moments louder than others
And I have loved you in every one of them
You say you live your life with passion, integrity and determination
There’s only one exception…
The true love in our hearts and souls
Me reaching for you is as empty as the silence you left here
Your silence is still so loud
And I’m still thinking out loud
Three years have ticked by
Some moments louder than others
