I write from the soul but have no clue what it is
I try and show you my spirit but it lives within
I love all of life but I'm not married to the thought
I give forgiveness but I'm not putting up with all sorts
I see my anger and use it to write my peace from
I have frustration and always try to build upon
I practice patience but still get way out of control
I have many words I like to express all the time
I used to keep them in solitude locked in my mind
I know my ego has shown me I can handle it alone
I acknowledge that selflessness found me a home

- Comment from author about the poem: It was hard to stop writing about this but I felt that was a good line to stop on. Not even sure what it is I'm trying to say but lately I've realised there are so many concepts I use and hear, although I don't really know! Thanks for listening and I always appreciate your time, it's not always easy to find when living a rhyme. Much peace and respect

Not 'I, I who have nothing' as the song goes. Call me Shirley (Bassey), or better, call me Tom (Jones)! Rather, 'I who have a lot, expressed in this fine write!'
*Staggers back in amazement*. I didn't know I was gonna comment that!
Yes, felt like a wonderful flow. Sing away with all the glitter and gold!
Always appreciated
This reads like you are in a state of flux Dan. The answers are there but you wont find them whilst you are asking the questions. Slowly the answers will come to you and you will truly know yourself.
Like i wrote the other day the words of lennon "life is what happens to you whilst you're busy doing something else"
I guess I am and that line is so true, I don't care for the answers any more. It all will happen as I do!
Sometimes we can feel renewed when we are only ready to be renewed and not quite there yet. That can lead to taking on more than we are really capable of and there will be break downs. If thats what you are finding, then just take a relaxing chair in life for a while, it's still going to be you in control but a more relaxed you. Theres plenty of stress ahead with your new baby coming up so be prepared to let go of a few things/commitments for a while.
The main obstacles in life are recognising the problems and having the courage to ask the questions - you are over the main hurdles and the answers will come.
I'll probably miss them having to much fun, just keep hold of those matches for when the time comes!
Wonderful exposition of your thoughts and concerns Dan. You have moved on so far in your life that all those thoughts and obstacles will be accepted and you are glorying in that eperience.
