One

How high the mountains sweep to the sky… But how low the valleys are to the eye. Swift wind Oh my, how it all flies. And finds me alone, Finds me alone. Finds me alone. I am not alone, I am with the wind so swift, the mountains so high, the valleys so low. IContinue reading “One”

Leap!

Truth Lies. Two sides One coin. Good Evil Love Hate Together Division The other Not one Confusion Where none.

Is Anyone Listening????

Hello? Are you there? I can’t see you! Where are you? Why must I face it in loneliness? Where have you all gone? Fair weather or foul, I am here. Where are you?

The Rope’s End

Swinging, swinging From the Rope’s End Just a little more Let go. It can’t hurt more than it already does. Too much pain! Too much suffering! Only the evil really thrive! Where is He? Just. Let. Me. Go. As you may or may not know, our family has been going through many tough times. WeContinue reading “The Rope’s End”
