completeness

could you imagine
if a person loved
with the whole of their heart
how much love that would be?

intensity
beyond comprehension
incredible strength
escaping intention
faith, trust, security
not even to mention
belief
in entirety

Lifestyles

so I think the moral of yesterday's story is
"yes princess, you get to live your free spirit lifestyle yet another day."
and the princess was happy
and her dogs were happy
and all was well in the universe.

grey skies

It's a gray day in this part my corner of the world. Luckily I have shelter, clothing & food. I really want for nothing.

Soon it will snow. I miss my friends I've been sent away from. Ah, this too shall pass.

I've a new mattress pad to keep my toes warm at night. Dressing my bed like someone I know, with lots of cush & plenty of pillows.

It's still a gray day.

residence

where will you live
until you die
silent like misery
denied as lost time?

where do you live
stuck in your mind
delayed by yourself
living knot in a bind?

how do we sea
ships lost but afloat
how can we love
sharing not of our boat?

Congrats

Congratulations to all sobriety oriented individuals

especially those with 10 years under their belt

especially those wise enough

to not

ever take their sobriety for granted.

We should all remember,

each day is a present....

written June 24, 2004

Did you ever remember
what you forgot to forget?
Shadows of memories
dance across my days
I fear nothing
and all
at the same time

companionship

so interesting
deep friendships
can last forever
just like love
while lust
kicks up more dust
doesn't last as long
either way
it's a 4 letter word
powerful
like a storm
on a warm summer night
frequent lightning strikes
illuminate
only for brief seconds
or take a January snow
ice crystals
blow, whip around
creating sculptures, changing landscapes
killing
by frost
tender fingers of life
yet preserving, protecting
hidden strands underneath

dream hours

as he rolled over and looked at me
"I'll never hurt you" he said softly
I didn't look into his eyes
it's not that I didn't believe him
I didn't believe the line
perhaps it would be me
causing pain
perhaps something else
but there is always
pain

Less than a week later
we were over
a month of solid bliss
cuddling
great sex
playing house
getting along
tis over

I didn't see it coming
but I knew that coach would arrive
it always does
I'm a single princess
waiting for a prince
who wants
doesn't take much
just a desire
to be close
just a desire
to share
just a desire
to not
go alone

uncanny

my last words are almost upsetting they are so insightful.

and another month at Monarch and I am home. No lodge job for me. Can't get along with the other bitch in charge. Oh well. Guess I am not meant to be in Colorado right now. It's not that upsetting to my soul which almost surprizes me. and life charges on...

and the man. the man with blue eyes of steel. he sat quiet never passing judgement or offering an opinion of any kind to news of my departure. I'll close his book meant not to be written today and offer not paths to tears who may want to tell their own story.
