You've Waited

You've waited so long to shake off those shackles of jealous thought
Wait no longer for freedom and those dreams that you've sought
You are allowed to breathe and to live your life with truth and love
It is not in others gifting, no this is a special gift from up there above
Don't waste your life struggling free of fears chains just break the link
Open your eyes to reality and you can decide what you say and think

Your eyes are turned inward and you see nothing but hearts tears
Lift up your sight from its dark and lonesome vigil banish those fears
Turn your face upward and feel and breathe the beauty of truths light
Stand no longer in the shadow reveal your heart, send back the night
No one can hold you bound within your prison, tear those walls down
Let your spirit smile and dance now is the time to lose angers frown

Those years you feel you've wasted in trying to be other than you are
The seeds they've sown within you, determination you shall travel far
Take up the challenge you know this is what you've longed to do
Throw off the mantle of obedience and answer back those critics too
Be what you desire and let your heart wander whither, wherever it will
With real love and light come and take it all, feast on it, take your fill

Throw back the curtains that have closed your soul off away from light
Feel your spirit refreshing herself, finding truth such an amazing delight
You can be whatever you wish, you can touch the rainbow, be the best
Free yourself from the dark possessiveness, be yourself, unlike all the rest
With those chains removed set your heart and your hopes finally free
You'll be flying higher now look beside you and there will always be me

Hi lil sis, thanks sweetie, I always think just a little wind beneath the wings of those who are feeling a little down. This time of the year seems to make those who are alone feel worse. And this is my gift a little wind and a few words of love.
Take care kid

Kathleen love, thank you most kindly. I hope it helps those who are down and need a little lift. And my love goes out with it.
Take care
              have a great New Year

So many of your
special friends
will see this
as a means to an end
and then
they shall begin again

Marsha, you're getting
better and better
you little Energizer bunny

Kari love, with a new year comes new hopes and dreams, and if this can help then re energise I am indeed happy. Live long sing strong and LOVE
Happy New Year to one and all
Take care kid, remember where I am if you should need me love   never more than an E away.
And if you can't send an E then send a thought, I'll get it just the same.
