I know of affirmations
that I should recite,
and even words I find absurd
incite me in the night.
My subconscious,
reprimanding,
living in the
flesh, demanding,
judge and jury
notwithstanding...

voices echo in my mind.


Silences that should be kept
Stifled tears that should be wept
volcano grows
beneath the rug
where my memories were swept...

voices mocking in my mind.


Bridges leading anywhere
Taxi cabs are at my door
The roads curve long
in sweet "come on"
my soul in ache to taste of more...

voices beckon in my mind.

The mocking voices are the way we are hardest on ourselves.  

Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream.

Wow, girl, you always have such strong words, and I always agree with them. Another keeper, for the ever growing list.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Karen, I know these thoughts ever ao well, and how stressful they can be, but as long as we have each other and friends to talk to, we can make it through together! (kiss on cheek) Sooooo wonderful, dearest friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet serenity, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
