Conceal

That word …

Conceal

We all do it every day

We do it consciously

We do it unconsciously

But …

We hide the bits and pieces

of our lives

parts of…

who we are

who we are NOT

Until we no longer have

any idea who we really are

 

In this hiding lies begin

and…

we forget who we told what

who knows what about us

what promises we made

and…

what promises were broken

 

In Concealing our life

we lose ourselves…

we lose our identity…

we lose our souls…

we lose everything…

we live in pain and confusion

of our own creation

 

Come into the light

into the truth

stop hiding from yourself

stop hiding from others

be free …

Security…

Thunder rumbling in the distance
Sky dark and threatening
Storm brewing…
 
There are moments of clarity
Desire quickens…
Resting secure in the 
strength of your arms
 
The storm rages…
Builds…
And…
Finally passes…
 
Safe…
Security reigns
in your Arms…

Secret Afternoon…

Secret Afternoon…

Late Spring…
A gentle warm day
The afternoon spent 
lazing in the sun
Sharing their passion
Stolen moments…
 
He had to leave…
She must stay…
lounging in the 
afterglow of 
what they shared
 
Later…
She collects her 
book…
quilt…
 
And…
 
with sandals in hand
walked barefoot to
her car stopping to
check where she had
been quietly reading 
for any signs…
any indications…
of their secret 
meeting in the park
before stealing away
to that lovely…
     private…
            meadow…
 
She smiled knowingly
secretly…
reliving the afternoon
 
A deep breath
Squaring her shoulders
she resigned to go home
prepare dinner as though
nothing had changed

Someday…

Someday…
Life will be
Different
Secrets will be
Revealed
Trust will be
the Norm
Not…
the hoped for
 
Someday…
You and I
will not hide
from each other
 
Someday…
You and I 
will not ignore
what we feel
 
But…
 
Embrace our
friendship openly

Words…

Belief…
You tell me you
Believe in me
That I am important
to you on many
different levels.
 
However…
 
I see nothing 
in your actions…
hear nothing
in your words…
that proves what
you tell me
 
Are these words
Sincere…
Or…
Empty?
 
I continue to be
Confused…

Words…

Words…
regardless of the
language hold such
importance for 
us all
 
Words…
Their shades of
meaning different for
each of us…
Music to some ears
For others…
static and white noise
 
Words…
When used to the
best advantage
bring brilliant 
glitter and sparkle 
to the soul…

ENOUGH…

When is enough…
ENOUGH?
 
Try as I might
I seem to never
do or say the
right thing at
the right time
 
I try to give
compassion and
support…
But…
It…is…
NEVER…
Enough…
 
It is so tiring
to try hard…
care too much…
 
ENOUGH…

Good Things

Mama always said,
“Good things come to
those who wait!”
 
Her wisdom has 
always led me in
the right direction…
If only I believe…
If only I am
Patient…
 
Waiting isn’t easy
But…
It does pay off
in the long run…

I Still Don’t Know…

I Still Don’t Know…

Life is strange
And… unusual
Each of us going
our own separate way
Independent
 
Yet…
 
Depending on 
others along 
the way
 
Everyone we meet
leaves a little of
them behind
Making us who we are
Touching us…
Parts of us…
Pieces of us…
 
Usually we know
why things happen
why people come
into and out of
our lives
 
But…
 
Sometimes those we 
meet remain a
Mystery…
Still not knowing 
what or why
Only knowing life
is so much better
because they are here

Memories

Our lives are built on
memories…
Good and Bad
But…
They make us
who we are
 
The people who 
touch our lives
become a part of us
A sacred memory
instilled in each of us
 
Walking in the night
I savor each memory
of my life
Taste the flavor of the
summer air around me
as I create memories
attached to each
inside me
 
Looking into the
sky…
these new memories
set fire to the stars
and begin new
memories of 
my life…
