From the Heart
Avoiding you is easier, as my eyes avert your gaze.
Sidestepping the emotions, that only time will fade.
Missing precious moments, as I cast them from my mind.
Escaping memories of you, of smiles so hard to find.
Cheating pain and suffering, I’ve stored it deep within.
It’s easier to evade the hurt, until new life begins.
In response to The Daily Prompt – Cheat
It was a mistake to let you walk away without telling you I cared.
But your loving declaration found me somewhat unprepared.
I laughed at what you shared with me, not believing it was true.
You must have thought me very cruel to make a fool of you.
I’m feeling so much sadness now, you have a new love so real.
I’ve learnt the hard way sure enough, I hope my heart will heal.
I’ve learnt a lot today and I’ve only been up about an hour.
Learnt from reading your blogs, wow, what amazing power.
Isn’t it just fabulous, that I learn from what you say.
Like on photography, in taking shots, the very best of ways.
And commenting, how I should, to show an author I care.
Via posts, on how, to carefully put my words out there.
On love and life, on success and on every other topic.
Finding messages in your posts however microscopic.
My agenda, to read some more, while I drink my coffee.
I’ve dived into the blogging world, so what on earth can stop me.
A ruby coloured crystal goblet of goodness in a glass.
To perk me up, restore my health by acting very fast.
A beetroot, fresh and bleeding, ginger and carrots too.
Two apples, ice and turmeric, that’s how I made you.
I know that you will do the trick so I’ll be back on track.
Health restored and bouncy, I won’t need to see the quack!

I wrote this for fun after making myself a detox, cleansing juice of organic vegetables . I’ve had a couple of days of feeling a little rough, which might be a result of not looking after myself so well at the weekend. I’m trying to stick to this vegan diet but still feel I’m pulled down very quickly with various ailments, that I might have fared better with as a vegetarian. I’m keeping at it though, not being one to give in!
So here I am, I’m back on track and back to my blog and life with beetroot stained fingers!

The eyes are the windows of the soul,
so dive right in and see.
What lies behind the mask I wear,
come find the real true me.
The colour changes with my mood,
so come at the right time.
Green and blue and sometimes grey,
communicate my signs.
When lids are closed do not disturb,
it really wouldn’t be wise.
As I am dreaming and travelling far,
and watching with closed eyes.

The sun went down and I was scared, with darkness all around.
The moon popped up to comfort me, bright and full and round.
Don’t fear my love he said to me, I’ll see you through the night.
With gentle glow and smiling face, I knew that I’d be alright.
Life is as confusing as we make it. I have dreams that confuse me, disastrous dreams, like last night where the bank was closing in and I was in so much debt there was no way out. Is this a message for me to get my affairs in order or just a fear that finds its way to the surface when I’m asleep and not able to suppress it. This morning my immediate reaction was to fret and worry and then I opened my eyes and remembered I don’t do that anymore. I’m not supposed to have all the answers and life will work out as it should if I worry or not. I checked my bank account and an outstanding invoice had been paid, there, it was just an unconscious worry.
Confused is just another term for not having all the answers and I certainly don’t have them. Confusion also arises when we don’t feel in control, we don’t know which way to turn or who to listen to any any given moment. I don’t want to fight control any longer, I submit, have it your own way control. I’ll wait until it feels right or I’m inspired to move forward.
Some things I don’t mind finding a little confusing are crosswords, the rules to football and those that don’t ever think further than their day to day existence.
Life is as confusing as you allow it to be. I don’t give being confused much space now because it’s all a mystery we will find out at the end of the day and at the moment I’m in no particular hurry.
Daily Word Prompt – Confused
Just maybe once in a while, you’d turn up when you should.
Just maybe if you obliged, the day would turn out good.
I’m not feeling half as bright, with you up in the clouds.
I don’t know why you hide away, you used to be so proud.
I’m feeling very chilly now, my arms are white and fat.
It’s so long since I’ve seen you sun and needed my sun hat!
Oh, I have experienced crisis, another one came today
With jagged edge and scary face that will not go away
Take up all my waking thoughts, trouble me at night
The crisis will not leave my side, until I’ve put it right
It comes to shake me up a bit, when everything’s okay
Just when I was happy, plans heading the right way
But when I think about it really, with a microscope
It never turned out as I thought, I have always coped
Crisis you don’t scare me, I’m not giving you my time
All will work out as it should and I will be just fine.
I used to try and evade you, by slipping out at the night
Now you’ve woken up, you’re keeping me in sight
I know you always find me, rely on a bell that rings
You won’t believe my innocence, I’m not up to anything
I surely can be trusted, it’s Tom that you should watch
He follows me, he sniffs me out, he really has the hots
Not practiced at expressing, what my feelings are about
You know I cannot speak, so you’ll have to work it out
I’m a cat and your a man, we really aren’t the same
It’s my nature to slink about and play elusive games
