Six feet deep

We said everything was perfect
Until your body, pressed on mine
Turned into cold, hard marble
Which buried me inside.

Rolling over, six feet deep,
The thick, dry dirt is comforting
It muffles the sound of my cries
So no one can hear me scream

The flowers growth right through me
In my everlasting sleep
Can't you see the beauty
That lies rotting in this heap?

The angry river washed over me
Drowning all my youth
An oblivious plunge into a watery grave
Cleansing me of hope
With the harshest waves of truth

And the wings that should have lifted
Are now burning up beside me
Fickle ashes falling down
Drifting aimlessly.

And I kiss the earth surrounding
Filling my mouth and suffocating
I breathe it in, and it sucks the life out of me
This sickening hunger, never abating

Pull that trigger now
Watch the flood of red petals
Deliver me from this powerlessness
Made by those words
That shot out like metals.

And those false, loving hands
Wound tightly around me
Strangling my dreamland
But oh, ever so gently.

Here, sweet, harrowing death
Come closer, beside me
Save me from this place
But do not soil your hands
Please, won't you allow me

Those sharp bitter tongues
Slice right through
No screaming now
Listen please, they're here to help you

If there is no more
Play the funeral procession
I just need some peace
Or divine intervention.

When you get stuck

Sometimes you can get stuck in a relationship: You're in a constant state of trigger (fight/ flight/ freeze) instead of feeling intimately connected You've become two old stories instead of two open hearts You're scared or angry most of the time instead of feeling free and authentic It's heavy and complicated instead of light and playful  There is more effort placed on control and strategy than growth and gratitude You are there because of a commitment, because you feel you “should”, not because you want to be.  What can you do? You basically have 3 options: 1. Stay . Continue the slow, painful process of losing yourself in order to keep the relationship. 2. Let it go . Sacrifice your relationship to save your soul. 3. Change . You both have to be willing and capable of growing together. The goal here is to see if you can get back to love without sacrificing your authentic selves in the process. To do this, you must remove the idea of promises, attachment...

Courage is not the absence of fear

"Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear." -George Addair Wholeheartedly believe this. We have two choices in life: be led by fear, or lead with love and courage, trusting that things will unfold and work out just as they should. Maybe not how you planned, but always for the best. Fears will never disappear. But when you make peace with your fears, possibilities will appear. The next time you feel fear, just take the superhero stance! (And do some yoga to quiet the mind.)

Dream

Would you mind dreaming with me a little while longer Because I'm not finished with you yet You tell me not to remember But I don't want to forget It may not be perfect, nor am I, neither are you But you bring me something I can hold on to It helps me surrender It helps me advance And most of all, you already know, It makes my soul dance.
