Poetic Dan

As the tears fall from my eyes
Restoring inner balance of my heart

Open and free to feel everything
Blissful life is letting it all in

A heavy heart sits in my chest
When I'm restricted from doing my best

The day will come when the chains of anxiety are taken off

No longer infected by the will of others
We can make mistakes and learn too
Not wrong or right but feeding the light

I'm holding on to faith that got me here
Knowing this is all going to become clear
Once the chains of others negativity
Let me be who I am unrestrained
To share my lifes wisdom I have gained

    Positive throughout are these poetic expressions of gaining ourselves despite outside negative reactions - some worthy stanzas contained in the verse Dan - - and one of my favourites is - -
    "No longer infected by the will of others
    We can make mistakes and learn too
    Not wrong or right but feeding the light"- - - keep going forward and keep that ink flowing my friend.

      I truly appreciate you're wisdom and acknowledgement of my heart and soul that I share as do so many others, reading your reply my thoughts slowly faded. A stillness much needed, thank you again.

      Am with Fay here, PD! Very well written.

        I'm glad it makes sense buddy, as there are so many thoughts and emotions running around inside.

        I'm very glad things have begun getting better or at least that you've been upholding hope, a candle in darkness. Overall, loved this piece Dan, perfectly illustrates you're meaning.

          Thank you my friend, things are getting better and I'll try to remember this when the storm comes again as I'm sure it will.

          Good positive write, we all make mistakes but that just adds to our experience to help us go forward in our lives.

          • Poetic Dan

            Thank you I'm hoping to keep this forward motion going my friend on the inside and out.

              You are so kind, I hope to keep that positive vibe but the old patterns of fear do break through.
              I'm told I still have healing left to do, from memories forgotten or blocked out.

                YOU WILL HEAL because your focus is your CHILDREN! This I know my friend! You will get there because of your love for them!
