Reflections of My Soul III

best viewed with an open mind

In a hidden place, I look to see
Who is this person, the one I call me
I see a child who romps and who plays
I see a woman, who's now turning gray
I see a mother with a child of her own.
I see a wife who now stands alone
I see a woman who once gave her heart
She gently holds it, all broken apart.
I see a face filled with hopes of new Love
Belief in the future and pray to the gods
To find someone with whom my life I can share
My hopes and my dreams, my laughter and cares
As time passes on, I see the child who still plays
As I wait for the one to share the rest of my days
I've looked inside to see who I am
I am child, I am woman, I am all that I am...

I hear the roar of canons, but to my surprise,
It's the sound of thunder, awakening the skies.
The light shining brightly, in bolts and in spikes,
Are hurled by the angels to light up the night.
The stars are all covered, by clouds colored gray.
The moon has been hiding in much the same way.
"BOOM" goes the thunder, again and again.
While I listen to music made by the rain.
The storm will soon be over, there will come a glow.
With the rising of the sun, I'll see a bright rainbow.

I dance in a circle, I dance in a square.
I dance over here and I dance over there.
I dance when I'm happy and when I'm sad.
I dance when I'm good and when I'm bad.
I dance to a piper, I dance to a tune.
I dance in mid-winter, even in June.
I dance to the left, I dance to the right.
Now you can see me, then out of sight.
I dance with many or I dance with one.
This poem has ended, now I am done.

I write little poems because they are fun.
I'll start another when this one is done.
Some make me laugh, some make me cry.
I sit and wonder, why do I try?
I hear the words running 'round in my head.
Put them to paper so they can be read.

So many plans and whispers were spoken.
Not really lies, but promises broken.
Why do you promise what you can't do?
I still believe, does that make me the fool?
You tell me you love me and will always be here.
Then like the night, you just disappear.
Again and again, I've let you return.
How many times can one heart get burned,
Before it grows cold and turns into stone
And leaves you there standing all on your own.

I have loved you with Spirit's Heart and every breath within.
When you were an angel and even when you sinned.
You are my forever Soulmate, this I know as truth.
My Spirit's Heart has told me, it always will be you.
Together our spirits, will like eagles soar.
We will love 100 years and then will love one more.

The warrior’s song grows stronger; as it calls out to my heart.
Guiding my spirit homeward; for too long we’ve been apart.
He says he’s cleared the path for me and gently takes my hand.
Urging me with loving words, "Return to the Spirit land."
He sings an ancient hymn to heal my weary soul.
To heal my mind, my spirit’s heart, my spirit as a whole.
The warrior’s song grows stronger; it calls my spirit home.
To rest forever in his arms and never more to roam.
To always know the warmth of love and never feel the pain.
To rest in peace forever, unless I rise again!

The shadows grow darker, my life force is dim.
I'm spiraling downward, deeper within.
Away from the people, away from the crowd.
Shadows surround me, much like a shroud.
Disappointment now lives, where trust used to be.
Born from a plan, a plot to deceive.
I lied to myself, I lied to my heart.
Trusting your words, now we're apart.
You said you did love me and never would leave.
I believed in your words, it's myself I deceived.
Yes, I still love you, of that there's no doubt.
But as I once told you.......
Three strikes and you're out!

Do you miss me as much as I miss you?
Do you look for me in places, the ones we once knew?
Do you hear my laughter in the softly falling rain?
Do you feel my emptiness, do you feel my pain?
Do you feel my love in the warmth of the sun?
I still don’t understand, what made you run?
Away from my love that only promised to be true.
My heart, my soul and spirit all belonged to you.
Every word you spoke were promises not to be.
I still don’t understand why you lied to me.
I cannot blame you alone for what I feel inside.
I chose to believe you each and every time you lied.

The day the raven died,
The heavens opened and the angels cried.
She was soaring thru the clouds up in the sky,
Racing on winds ever so high.
She peered thru the clouds and saw the land.
Saw the destruction brought on by man.
The water below was once so cool and so clear.
She could drink from the river without any fear.
Now it was poison bringing death to us all.
Her heart broke in two from all that she saw.
She spiraled downward to the earth so unclean,
Dying of a broken heart caused by what she had seen.
