Stalagmites

Sharing a poem I handwrote my friends for this friendship day :) sorry for the non posting. Laptop crash and a law career makes writing difficult!


Stalagmites gracing the inner linings of my heart
inner compasses gently swaying me away
from turbulent mirages , of
an insecure voice 
which once belonged to my mind 

Making me believe 
that I can be more 
than my self
by being myself

My saviors in nightgowns
roaming a love lost town
when we have each other
we will always be home

  1. I love being more of yourself by being yourself. So true. This reminds me of the saying: if you bring forth what is within you, what is within you will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what is within you will destroy you. I love "my savior in nightgowns" the most! Smiles.

  2. Your handwriting is attractive, and fairly legible to my old eyes once I enlarged the view. It's nice to see something in the original – yet I would prefer an accompanying typed version if possible, then we can get the best of both worlds and I can focus more on what you actually say.

  3. This is wonderful, especially the saviors in nightgowns, and "when we have each other we will always be home."

  4. I love the thought of the heart as a cave, so maybe being more of yourself is knowing those caves...

  5. I like the idea that when we have each other we will always be home! So true. Home IS where the heart and the people one cares about are!
