Survivor Someone Special

Survivor

To celebrate your wondrous strengths
and spirit so divine


To believe in miracles
in this most cherished time

May simple hopes and graceful dreams
ride high on precious wings

This angel gently joins the chorus
For you it joyfully sings

and light in the world around you

GLIMMERING VEIL OF STARS
the Goddess Selene tenderly guides
the moon on its celestical journey
Keeping watch over
The NIGHT-BATHED Earth.

Her Face is Lit
By the gentle glow of
MOONBEAMS from the heavens
And by the profound power of
Her own inner peace
and love for womankind


Somewhere in the universe
A STAR SHINES...

As Vast as a CLEAR CLOUDLESS SKY
As Bright as the FIRST TWINKLING STAR of the evening
As Rare as a JEWELLED BUTTERFLY


As Wondrous as BLOSSOMS UNFOLDING THEIR SPLENDOR
As Wise as the TALLEST OF TREES
As Grand as the MOUNTAINS THAT REACH TO THE HEAVENS
As Free as a...

About my blog

This is basically my space to spill out everything I'm thinking and feeling.

Please note that some of the content here may be triggering.

What I write here is just me being honest with myself. Mostly just venting about things, realisations, and my path through healing.

There will be talk of CSA, SA, R, SI and ED here.
