Hi Whitelace,
Thanks for the very kind words!
I am finding it very therapeutic to write and these poems are just bubbling out of me right now.
I do not believe we are ever completely healed.
A good friend talks about the onion layers. Very good analogy I think.
Yes, we have people around us who are mirrors.
Trouble is, the person referred to in this poem is a mirror of who and what I was many years ago.
We stagnated together in fear for years.
But Spirit wouldn't allow that for me any longer, so I started growing, struggling within the restrictive relationship. This poem is the result.
I am seeing mirrors now who more closely mirror where I'm at and where I'm going.
Hard to let go though - so much history.
Also, tired of dragging him along on my journey - shouldn't need to drag anyone.
I have an image of DEADWOOD in my head that is trying to come out - maybe the next poem.
Whitelace - BELIEVE in love! It makes the world go round. That is all there really is. The rest is illusion.
Corny and romantic, I know.
But I feel it to be my truth.
Blessings
Natalie
