"Seasons Of Life"




Gone are the green days of summer
Even the bright and vibrant colours of autumn have faded
And frosty mornings now have settled in
The moments and months have all blended together
Adding up to another year spent
As we approach the last few pages of this chapter
We often let the mind circle back and reflect...
The good with the bad mix together
Laughter and happiness mingle through
Lessons learned have left finger prints within us
Life's natural balance weaving its tapestry in time
We bare witness and are evidence of this each and every day
So easily do some of us fall behind...
When our mind fails in times of deep pain and darkness
We need to remind ourselves... and others
That we are more than these moments that hold us still
Allow your soul to take the steps it needs to heal
By placing one foot in front of the other and moving passed where you stand now...
Is the act of survival
Its where it takes root, at the core of you...
We must be greater than what we suffer
Nourish the soul and seek out the inspiration
Approach these moments with vigor, passion and conviction
Give it your life because the reward is life itself
A leap of faith requires you to jump
So its both feet in
Forgiveness, love, happiness, and peace...
It all begins with us
Be the keeper of the light that burns bright within you
As we navigate through these seasons of life.


Wishing you a very Merry Christmas!

"To Life Be True"



Life changes like the weather
And some experiences lived are so great...
They change us
And how we view ourselves
You can't get back the time lost
Find peace in the days yet to be lived
The past is written
Tomorrow is a new page in life
And there is only two days that you can't change...
Tomorrow and yesterday...
Because on the dark days that grip us
We must hold out hope...
To be greater than what we suffer.

"We Are Life"



These are the moments
Actions and choices...
The act of movement of getting up with the sun
And being thankful for the breath taken in
Along with the ones put to rest with the darkness of the night
We are more than these emotions we feel or carry
We are not our past...
Those were experiences learned
Not to be a life sentence carried out
Mistakes do not define us...
We define us
Other definitions of what we deserve should not dictate our well being
Or path in life...
Life is meant to be lived out loud
Not in silence or among the shadows
Because denying your true self is never sound advice
To you be true...
Happiness is a right
Not something that must be earned
Though it does have to be sought out
Found and fought for...
Clear your mind of the confusion
Doubt usually means don't
Embrace the soul
Shine bright your inner being
For we have more worth to us than simply fading into all of the forgotten yesterdays
Take one step...
From where you are now
To where you want to be
That is survival at the root
The core...
The beginning...
Each day...
Each moment...
Here and now...
Remembering always
To go with life.

"Morning Broken"



Eyes drift upwards...
Taking in the stars that blanket the sky holding the moon
Standing here in endless moments
Embraced within shattered pieces of life
Tears leaking a stream down pale cheeks
Erode away at the barriers built
Pain cracks through the facade painted
Touched by the cold of self abandonment
Reasons as to why take flight...
Thoughts scream through the corridors of the mind
The things that could have been...
Should have been...
Replay in the dark
Fear embraces the soul
Lost...
You have found yourself lying within your life
Memories of happiness fail
As you dig a little deeper...
Burying yourself just that much more
Away from the truth you know is craving desperately to come to light
A single pure moment of freedom if taken
One choice that would begin a journey of many steps
From the gray fog of confusion
To clarity
Dawn approaches...
First glint of sunshine casts out from the horizon...
Begging to know...
Will your true inner being know this day?
Will you become more than the silence... you keep?

"Life is Life"



From time to time
As we always do
When you take a moment and look into yourself
Past the wish and prayer
Deep at the connection of your being
Simply continue to be
Just as you are
Here in this very moment
Continue to strive towards the vision you see
Shrug off any vision of what others see you being
Live enough to let your dreams grow
Challenge and change the world around you
While always remembering that leaps of faith require you to jump...
Simply love without the label...
And continue to give absolutely everything you can to life
As you exist in every vibrant moment
Because life is life...
Welcome.

"Last Chance Broken"


Time has done for me its art filled master work
Erased the weight of deception and betrayal
Faded is the sharp edge of of the words that led me astray
My voice spoke of honesty and of truth to you
Conversations linked our lives together in a common thread
My past was unearthed so your eyes may behold the misfortune of past love broken
Even though you were armed with all this information
A false truth was born
Caught red handed by your own admission
I was broken by your lies
My thoughts burned
Turmoil turned within me
You broke every rule that I had set forth
Clouding all the supposed good that you brought to my life
Anger is my every right now
You were fairly warned
I told you not to lie, cheat, or steal from my heart
It was your choice to deceive me
Breaking my trust in you complete
So don't just simply stand there thinking that all is well
Expecting a second chance that would never be automatically given...
Ever.

"Last Watch of The Night"



Cloud shadows drift across the barren fields
Memories drift quietly upon the wind
The bright golden sun warms my skin
As I embrace every essence within me
My senses remember and recall their most prize indulgence
My smile tells the truth of a tale that is all knowing
I cannot hide the immensity
I can hardly bare the moments when I'm with you
To not be touching you...
Holding you...
 Or being with you in every way two people can be
Making every second I am not absolute torture
Its all bittersweet
But I stay...
I wonder, remember, and hope
Why do we dance like this?
Why do we hold our words back?
Why do we wait upon borrowed time, loving no one, alone?
These are the things that I'm forced to question...
The choice is within our hands
Its entirely up to you if you would like to be included
So I wait...
Again...
For one last time...
Here...
