Love Me So

You lifted me when I was down
Healed me when I was broken
Held my hand when I closed my fist
Covered me when I was frightened

Who am I that you love me so?

You continued to knock when I could barely open
You bandaged my heart with words never spoken
By your gentle touch my spirit awoken

Who am I that you love me so?

Colored Eagle Eyes

Gray to green to orange outlined with red like the sun
Bright lights illuminate my soul
Golden winged chariot carries my spirit with delight
Sparkling flashes of electricity fill my quiet blue mind
Charmed by Sabio
Chords like a heart monitor measuring my beats
Purple energy with crisp white feathers like a dove
Soaring like an eagle with locked talents
Pushing through the pain, giving birth to life
Free as a bird flying high.

A Fresh Perspective

It feels like I'm walking away from a blizzard.
The rogue that made the surfer thankful in a whole new way.
A fresh perspective. New life.

This is a picture I drew in my journal when I decided to lend my voice on here for the voiceless by just posting pictures and links in May & June. Looking at it cracks me up.

Dad

Oftentimes I sit down to write something about/for you and I go blank. I suppose when you love someone else so deeply, it cannot properly be put into words. Its more like a Melody that plays in your heart and sings to you whenever you need it. When you forget what you're made of, and what you are capable of... when you are at your highest and at your lowest... and everywhere in between... its a timeless, endless love song to play to the chords of my heart and keep it beating strong... with purpose and perseverance, with tenacity, strength and kindness... with everything you've taught me, realized or not. They say you should, "Dance as though no one is watching you, love as though you've never been hurt before, sing as though no one can hear you, and live as though Heaven is on Earth.-Souza" Your song has taught me to do all of the above. Thank you Dad.

Peanuts

Me and my nephew are sitting at the table at a burger place.
He has a dish full of peanuts and he starts eating them and throwing the shells on the ground.
Me: Hey, what are you doing? I don't think you're suppose to throw the shells on the ground like that in here.
Him: Yeah we can! My Dad even told me we can do that. Its okay.
I look around and the floor looks really clean.

Me: Are you sure about that?
Him: Yeah, I'm serious! We really can, I'm not kidding!
I look at his tray of peanuts and then back up at him.
Me: haha! Well, in that case...

I reach for the peanuts and start munching away, enjoying throwing the shells freely on the floor.
We sit there talking, eating peanuts and throwing the shells on the floor like its nobody's biz!
My brother and brother-in-law sit at the table behind us as my nephew and I continue to talk away.
I hear them laughing loudly and my brother says, "Oh my gosh, Suzie, what are you doing??!"

We turn around.
Me: What am I doing?
Brother: You aren't suppose to throw the shells on the floor in here!
Me: Yeah, Kyy said we can.
 I look at my brother-in-law.

Me: He told me you said we could.
He looks at my nephew and tells him, "We are not at Heroes Kyy." (place where you can throw your shells freely on the floor)
My nephew looks up at me and smiles with a shrug of his shoulders and we all start laughing.
I look around again and get really embarrassed when I compare our area to the rest of the place.

Let it Fall - Lykke Li

You leave me down on my knees scraping against the very ground I'm supposed to be walking on. You drag my head under the water, just when I'm barely keeping it above. You challenge me, you lift me, you don't want all of me, you can't get enough. Sex drugs alcohol, lies, truth, betrayal; love kindness faith. Complexity, messages, ordinary, mundane. Extra ordinary, good. You have many faces.
