New thoughts


Ahhhh - feeling much better now. A few days of wallowing and self-pitying are about all I can stand.

Nothing new and exciting going on - just making ready to move on.

Life is getting better.

Some People

(photo credit to Rosie - thanks much.)

Some people are so deep you are left feeling inadequate.
Some people are so deep you know their pain.
Some pain is so deep it will never diminish.
Some pain is so real it consumes.

I glimpse this pain.
I cannot feel it.
I understand this pain.
I cannot feel it.
I hear this pain.
I cannot feel it.
I know this pain.
I cannot feel it.

Is there a way to reach deeper?
Is there a way to heal?
Once the insides have been torn out?
Once the child has been lost?

How far must I go to get her?
How long before I can’t reach her?
She is reaching out now.
She is trying to get here.

I feel her pain.
I know her pain.
I don’t want her pain.
She doesn’t want her pain.

Lost


I'm Lost.

Flailing in the open atmosphere.

Directionless, without discipline, no definitive answer.

I am an emotional wreck.

My physical well-being is starting to suffer.

Which way is up exactly?
