Fragile thing. One casual word, innocently spoken,
But mistakenly understood, can open deep and
Enduring wounds in our emotional hearts, yet
Forgiveness goes a long way in repairing that
Damage. Not so the physical heart, it is not
So easily repaired. This is why it is so very
Important to guard your words, and also
Your health. What you eat, including
What ideas you take in, can be greatly
Helpful, or harmful. As for me, I trust
That little voice inside that speaks
To me where no one else hears.
I ‘know’ when I shouldn’t do,
Say, eat or take something.
It is up to me to listen, do
The right thing… or not.

Bringing with them the flotsam and jetsam of a lifetime
Of wishful thinking and also of regrets , beaches
Strewn with fragments of broken dreams and
Yet, the sun still rises with its awesome
Majesty and warmth, the winds still
Blow and I am still alive. I am alive
To love, to care, to give and to
Share, for these are the
Things which give
My life meaning.

Sun is shining warmly down on some placid waters,
I can be confident that life goes on. I needn’t
Dwell in the self inflicted darkness of
My soul overlong. Safely I glide
Into the sunlight, leaving
The shadows behind;
In the darkness.
