The Journey – Written one year ago today

I wrote this poem one year ago today. The healing that has taken place since this was written has been an AMAZING journey! I am feeling incredibly grateful today. I only pray that each of you have the healing that you need to create magic in your life! 

Other things you did not know

That she dances, sings and loves the snow

Bet you never noticed her hair up at night

Or when you would argue, how her mind took flight

Did you even enjoy the healthy food she would make

Wasn’t really your thing, you prefer chocolate cake

What about her smile did you not notice that too?

Or would mentioning it make you feel like a fool

It must’ve been hard ignoring all those little things

Even the time she showed up in red with freshly cut bangs

I often wonder if you noticed when she was gone

Or did it take a year or so to realize what went wrong

It’s not really an issue… your friends didn’t like her anyway

She was far too much for them and you felt you couldn’t go out and play

Was it really worth it,,, going after the money in the end?

When you turned your back on her you lost your best friend

It takes a while to realize the one we fear the most…

Is an exact replica of a past life friendly ghost

Before you check in on her like you do time and time again

Know she doesn’t really have a clue as to where to begin

It’s kind of where we all are

One foot in the future and one foot in the past

Hoping the way forward will be an energetic blast!

Her prayers for you are that you find what you’re looking for

Something to satisfy you even more than you were before

Take a hard look… face yourself in the mirror

Eat more fruits and vegetables and stay away from the beer

We learned a lot of lessons, you and I

Some love lives forever and will never die
