I write it all out,
Everything that builds up
But lately it has just got too much...
To choices and decisions
I did and did not make
The life all around me and the part that is fake
The burden of responsibility
What never asked to exist
Then maybe the fact that it did before my own exit
The information that matters
Diluted in mass
Wondering what era I'm a part of on this stage or this map
For my ability to connect
To others has felt inadequate in fact
As those moments of now become more frequent
I find my time standing still
Lost in my energy that won't heal
To be a part of this world is coming constant repeats
No I don't want to march and hear someone talented speak..
I've already listened and the change is ready in me
What needs to happen is what's never been done before
To go deeper in and reflect before we walk out the door
We've been at war all our lives, to free the spirit we left behind
Maybe then
Souls like mine will not lose track of time ...

I guess we all get lost in the day to day humdrum and if we look too closely so the misgivings begin.
Instead, I think of something beautiful, poetic. Sometimes writing about it, as a complete change from writing about me, is really lifting and reminds me - the world really is quite beautiful.
I can do that as much as the other but I guess I switch off to be somewhere in the middle.... It just hurts the others to be in my hurricane!
But I need to breathe and be me, while letting others be them! The lesson I've never learned is not to push them to far!
Always appreciate your time my friend...
I lose myself in my art - just off to do some designs for an album cover for a Christmas release - so little time to get it done. Just hope what I come up with meets with approval. But it keeps my mind occupied. A poignant write Dan.
If you felt so then I'm on a roll, I'm sure your art will match your soul...
Outstandingly magnificent for thoses that know!
Always appreciated my friend
Nice one Dan .. hope ya feeling better mate..

Actually hit rock bottom but the only way is up now and to start it today on my sons special day... I could not ask for more, mixed with the inspiration from all of you'll 😉
Have fantastic day!
......................................................... You two too to 🙂
Your reflections can sometime be fleeting but they can be so wonderful that they need to be put into words. I can get lost in them, listening to music, walking with nature and writing words about them can give me such wonderful times as I am sure you have with your family and your dogs.
Keep your words flowing Dan.

You always know where it's at my good sir, and deserve more than a tip of the hat! Maybe a past on the back, I could not rhyme forever with you on my track!
Always appreciated
Sincerely... My man!
