Childish Dreams....

Find a place to sit quietly
Watch the grass grow
Hear the wind blow
Dance with flowers of May

I knew these dreams so long ago

Growing pains
Dreams of Knights
Hear the tears
Childhood flight

I had these feelings all my life

Dance in the moonlight
Cry for love not found
Wish upon a star each night
Sleep till the sun goes down

I moved upon the earth in fright

Close my eyes
Reach for my heart
Turning away
I ran

I find these actions returning again

Sleep with the Unicorn
Watch the wind blow
Cry when the rain comes
Time for me to go

I wonder if I will dream again…..

Remember...I write poetry when something REALLY gets my attention.
I worked with a counselor today. Some call them nonesense or not consistant therapy.
The thing about it is if I am just talking about what I FEEL at this time...I usually have a discovery about myself.

There are parts of me that will never forgive what I perceived as injustices as a child. There are parts of me that are afraid to really honestly care about a person who WANTS to really know me.
The old thing about let me tell you the worst so you can leave now. Childish hopes and dreams should have stayed in the past.

The plans for now?
Growing past them all.

Life is changing dramatically for me right now.
Some will call me a cold hearted bitch.
It hurts.
Some will call me friend
It can still hurt.
I don't like being exposed. I don't like not knowing what to do.
I sit silent of MY dreams.
I sit silent of MY desires.
Always trying to do the best I can and it falls short. That in itself is a lesson.

Don't it always seem to go.
You don't know what you got till it's gone...
They paved paradise to put up a parking lot.

Whooo what dat dat
Whoooo what dat dat
Whoooooo

"The Hundred Acre Woods are no more"

No momma, they've just moved on from being an enchanting and unknown realm to being your backyard. Remember your reading. I love you.
