Freedom (a collaboration with Lorrie Bowden)

Resized_20160502_180504

Deserted

The lonely wind whips through my hair

As my heart bleeds real tears

Abandoned

The sky is beyond my reach

And my hopes turn to fears

Shattered

Broken mirror…tortured dreams

Pieces on the ground

Resigned

I am damaged

Missing pieces, parts not found

Exposed

What I fight is all that’s true

Naked to the core of who I came to be

Asunder

What is that noise I hear

I think it’s coming from me

Trepidation

I have dug deep

And the answers weren’t there

Liberation

The moment of feeling overwhelmed

Disappears as I throw caution to the air

Recognition

All that caused fear evaporates

As I realize the questions were all wrong

Comprehension

The very thing I kept hidden

Was in plain sight all along

 

It is an honour and an inspiration to create with Lorrie and I encourage you to check out her blog which in itself is an honour and an inspiration to explore as she shares her beautiful expressions of gratitude, soul-searching and love. https://lorriebowden.com/
