Invitation

I would like to invite you to the new Can you hear me whisper blog at 

http://mistysounds.wordpress.com/ .

Thank you for being loyal followers.

Watching my children as they grow and learn

Doing things for themselves

Going places alone

Watching my children turn into teens

Gaining maturity

Learning of life

Watching my children mature into adults

Proud of their accomplishments

Their choices and lives

Shh,

listen to sound of the world turning, moving through space, endless motion

Shh,

feel the energy, pulling you down, into the soft earth

Shh,

close your eyes and drift into the unknown.

Rebirth...

Life,

slowly awakening from a winter slumber,

the sun,

melting away the chill of the snow and ice,

nature,

busy with it’s tasks of creating new life,

Spring,

the miracle of rebirth.

The wind, blowing gently, leaves across a blanket of green grass,

The cool air, crisp to the sound of leaves underfoot,

Sun, beating down, trying to warm the earth and it’s inhabitants,

Spring, emerging from a long lingering winters sleep.

The smell of clean linen, wind blowing the sheets like dancing ballerinas,
Rain falling from the sky, droplets of gold from a blue
and white dream,
Falling back into a soft and flowing bed of wheat,
rushing the fields edge like a tide.

A secret...

I hear your voice and in me

starts a dream so deep and true

and though the people aren't the same

I know it's me and you

The past you must remain within

our lives are not the same

but in the dark when we are one

we'll always play the game

The passion deep within my soul

burns only for your touch

a secret I can never tell

why does this hurt so much

This lie I live in fear of

should the truth be ever known

into the arms of another

and passion that was stolen

A place I love go....

I have a place I love to go

when I need to be alone

to dream of things I wish were true

to dream again of me and you

Sometimes we're on a sandy beach

as a rainbow sky blends slowly

into the roar of crashing waves

and two become as one

I have a place I love to go

when I want to be alone

to dream of things that once were true

to dream again of me and you

A memory of a star filled night

the breeze so soft and gentle

your strength dissolving all my fears

a shoulder I could lean on

I have a place I love to go

no longer all alone

to dream of things that now are true

to dream once more of me and you

Memories...

I came across a card from you

My thoughts flew to the past

A time when our love had been young

And we thought that it would last.

Far in the night your touch I felt

And complete you made me feel

The endless hours of passion

Now are memories I must steal.

Drifting back into a dream

I see you reaching out

The love we use to have is lost

And you I'm now without.

First love...

I'd like to tell a story

about life and death and love

a tale of two lives passing

returning to god above

they say it's infatuation

when first in love you fall

I knew it went much deeper

for to each other they gave all

through childhood days their love grew

and together till their teens

their hearts cried out to others

those who know what true love means

from eyes that watched so closely

their feelings had been hidden

to openly express their love

was wrong and was forbidden

I found them on that morning

how it happened I can't say

together they had risked it all

and at last they found a way

Chapter of my life....

I'm in a chapter of my life

I wasn't ready for

To you I gave all that I had

Yet you expected more

And every time I turned a page

Your desires were much stronger

I cannot fill the needs you have

We can't go on much longer

My needs are not among the flesh

All interest lays not there

But in my heart my mind and soul

Look deep you'll find me there

Broken

Are you happy?

You have beaten me down, 

crushed my spirit,

and taken my hopes and dreams.

Are you happy?

With the single act of selfishness,

you have pushed me back

into the depth of my despair.

Are you happy?

Your lack of respect for the feelings

of others have 

taken my dreams from view.

Are you happy?

I am a vision of self pity

for allowing you to take my hopes.

Together...

Here in the dark I see you

and remembering how we parted

has me longing for the moment

when our paths will once more cross.

Your eyes reached deep inside me

at the time that we first met

and left within me embers

that was started by a spark.

But when we parted on that day

the beauty I had found

turned sunshine into darkness

for so long I'd lost my way.

When I had reached my hand unsure

of who would lift me out

through tears of pain I saw you

and I knew I'd be alright.

My days are filled with beauty 

now that I have you beside me

a mistake I made once in the past

shall not repeat again.

Friendship

For you I have no other gift

than that of friendship true

a shoulder you can lean upon

when skies turn grey from blue

Into your thoughts I'll weave a dream

that you can call your own

and appear to you when needed

bringing joy you've never known

My ears will always listen

to your stories true and deep

and if in pain you find your heart

I'll dry the tears you weep

A hand to hold on star filled nights

the beauty we can share

I give all these to you my friend

to show that someone cares

Far beyond the darkness deep

are spots of flickering life

eternal souls that never die

but shine and light our paths

into our lives they weave a web

of dreams and hopes to be

within our minds they give us strength

                                                     to see what we could be

Dreams

Enter my world but do beware

for life is not as it seems

slip through the door of reality

and now you're in my dreams

A silver thread of difference parts

the worlds of me and mine

your courage must be steadfast

as we travel on through time

Your eyes...

Through your eyes I see myself,

a woman, 

graceful,

beautiful.

The love you surround me with,

I feel in your touch,

hear in your words,

see in your smile.

Through your eyes I see myself,

a mother,

tender,

caring.

The strength you support me with,

I feel in your hope,

hear in your laughter,

see in your movements.

Through your eyes  I see myself,

Loving you.

An evening prayer

Dear Lord I pray as now I rest

your hand you'll place upon me

and in the morn when I awake

that once again you'll guide me

Place in my heart a love for those

who irritate and harm me

that I may show them by my ways

the person that they could be

Bless all the lives I've come to know

and those that I hold dear

allow me patience through my life

till judgement day is here.

Confusion

Confusion often hampers all the feelings which I hold,

And forces them behind the wall

Which fear of past turned cold.

So many I have passed by 

Dreaming for my yesterday,

But tell me love, please tell me,

Is there any other way?

I've waited deep within my heart to see you once again,

Dreaming of the future near

And memories of before.

A magnet draws me closer still

While wishing for the day,

But tell me love, please tell me,

Is there any other way?

I'm slowly understanding all the lessons I have learned,

As seasons change with time

You'll see I also have within.

My love for you has made me see

The dream was always there,

And now I know the answer,

No, there is no other way.

Feelings of helplessness...

Confusion

Covering my thoughts that once were clear

of what life had to offer

Deception

Taking my wishes and dreams

of people I believed

Fear

Stalking shadows bringing forth

memories of the past

You

Showing me love still exists

in someone I can trust

Why you?

Are you the one throughout my life

I must rely upon

For if you are, I realize

All dreams and hopes are gone.

You took from me the life I had

And every breath within

My garden full of blossoms sweet

No longer grows within.

Why did you choose to take my life

and sever my existence

was it the taste of blood you craved

or was I picked by chance.

You follow every move I make

And stop me when I turn

Raped of all my innocence

now rage begins to burn.

An ounce of sanity now is left

That wall you couldn't break

I'll wait till you believe me dead

And pierce your first mistake.

Together

Alone we are but individuals

searching for a meaning

not knowing where to turn

or which road to take

wondering what each day will bring

what each sunset will end

but together we are one

a strength that surrounds us

a love that grows

a new beginning

Alone, silenced

Surrounded by many

crowded, pushing, pulling, covering

yet alone, silenced

Reaching for you

searching, feeling, longing

yet alone, silenced

Falling deeper

into a pit of darkness

afraid of what lies at the bottom

Alone, silenced

by my desires and belief

that perhaps you may still care

To Melt Away

I stare longingly at the dark shadowy corner, 

waiting, wondering, 

slowly allowing the breath to slip past my lips the way smoke

 

curls from a cigarette.

 
If only I could melt into the darkness the corner holds, 

letting the past

 melt from my mind, 

bringing the future to my hands.

Waiting

Alone I sit and wait for you

as many times before

just to hear your foot steps

is all I'm longing for

To feel your arms around me

the gentle whispers that you speak

entwined within your confidence

are the memories I shall keep

The chance to hear your voice once more

or feel your presence close

to tell you that I love you

and it's you my heart has chose

Change

Change you brought into my life

when first love had arose

unsure of what the future held

still you I would have chose

So many days ahead of us

as I had wished there would be

I longed for solitude to go

and with you let me be

You've given me far more than love

a reason to believe

that someone wants me as I am

now loneliness can leave

Unsure and timid from the start

but you were always there

your arms were open waiting

when I needed you to care

The Darkness

A velvet blackness soft and smooth

descending

covering all and everything

Shadows behind shadows creeping

giving only glimpses of dreams that hide

beneath my fears

Watching as velvet fades to satin

sending visions of warmth to all beneath

restoring the life that had been taken

Senses

A gentle breeze that blows throughout

a warm September night

the full moon casting dancing shadows

until dawn brings new light

A sparrow singing nature's song

to ears that stop to listen

a rose that blooms from springs first rain

the stars at night that glisten

So many wonders fill my mind

as all around I look

the only joys left in my life

that heart break never took

A Soul Understood

A soul unchained and given freedom

In you is what I've found

Emotions shared and yet controlled

Dreams no longer bound

Freedom to be who we are

And soar through skies of blue

Never asking for the moon

A truth I've found in you

Sensitive in many ways

When others  aren't concerned

Reaching forth a helping hand

To calm a heartaches burn

How is it that you understand

The feelings I had hidden

And loneliness from other's eyes

To see had been forbidden

Of me you understand much more

Than you may realize

The truth of what is in my soul

Lays just behind me eyes

A Friendship Deep...

A friendship deep I have with one

who gives her love to me

it's worth is more than gold or gems

a replacement there won't be

Her voice flows as a summer's breeze

so calm in soothing ways

and lifts me high above the clouds

back to my childhood days

two hands that have a feather's touch

so many tears they've felt

a single sweep of magic 

and the sorrow seems to melt
