You ask why my face shines and glitters because sometimes

I like to pour a mask over it and sometimes when I cry it becomes

Very wet so that it seems as though I glow but now you see that

It is just a mask and underneath there is something beautifulish

But mostly it just is and that scares people so are you ready to

See because we can wait and you don’t even have to see it ever

Just hold my hand and feel it that should be enough until I leave

And forever you’ll have wished that you saw it because really

It’s not scary at all, it’s easing and clarifying and really it’s just me

And I’m just human I think promise okay just take a deep breathe

Don’t forget that you’re making a bigger deal out of this

Then you really need to but I love your heart because it’s big

And encompasses many people more people than I could ever

Imagine because that is who you are and it is especially my shade

Of heart for we’re on the same wave length since we believe

In these things that are important to us and I see this going

Far somewhere nowhere everywhere lets dance!

Hello dearies :) It is nearly 2009! I feel like it is already, yes, I feel...new. Not as though I'm a completely new product but that I have been upgraded and now am back on the shelf...a bit faster...a bit better and obviously more expensive. I have decided that this New Years is not one for drinking and regretting and making a complete fool of myself (boo! hiss! party pooper!). Instead I shall be down in SD protesting for those who have no voices (or rather no voices that could easily protest) aka animals! Huzzah! I'm excited and I'll be with good friends and people - and who knows who I may meet. I'm getting back in touch with my old friend, nature, and seeing the whole (notice: not hole) in myself. I can tell that next year is going to be one in which I'll have to buckle down and really push to get things done. This past 2008 has had more of a dream-like quality and also I've been preparing myself mentally and emotionally for what lies ahead. I guess I'll find out of it pays off. Mostly I'm excited about this new poetry I've written because it feels...right. It feels like it's my shape and my heart and possibly everything I've ever wanted to say. And so - I say goodbye to 2008 (knowing that I will rememeber well everything it has taught me) and hello to 2009 and remind myself that there is no such thing as a happy ending. Because there are no endings.


:)


Much love friends!
