    Finding A Way Out Of The Storm – Soul Travel

    Last night I dreamed about you again. I was searching for you while I was trying to find myself.

    I didn’t find you and … my soul remained lost in mist. Where are you? Where did you go? I don't understand it all.

    What am I to do without you?

    Where can I turn when my heart is full?

    Nowhere to go and nowhere to lean onto.

    I lost my companion, my soulmate, my love! The world doesn't care and why should they? They have their own lives and worries.

    Sentiments of loss and the effort to make sense of life without love; gone forever.

    I am lying in bed. Sometimes I cry and try to get it all out. I am trying to climb the hill of hope to find a destination. Then I realize that I don’t know the destination; I don’t know my purpose and my goals are gone.

    I get told to use my art to find healing and give my time to causes to find purpose. “Go into the world and find new friends”, they encourage me. Nobody knows how hard that is. Nobody.

    Find Hope …

    The days pass and hope begins to elute

    It doesn’t get better, only worse.

    How can strengths be found without hope?

    Or is it still there somewhere, deep down?

     

     

    We march on like dutiful little soldiers.

    Holding the body straight

    Giving up isn’t an option.

    Where is the “food” to keep us going?

     

    Perhaps hope is hiding in nature,

    In our little companion dog?

    Maybe the next morning will clear the soul?

    So we keep marching, searching …

    WELCOME TO MY WORLD

    Painting And Writing

    Helps Me Through Storms I Can’t Control

    It Brings Me Harmony And Peace

    When The World Around Me Goes Crazy

    Welcome To My World!

    I am going through a storm right now. My old coping mechanisms do not work anymore. I am a caregiver and bound to my home base because of it. All the mingling with friends and others isn’t possible at this moment. But … I can use my art to feel I still exist, that I still have a purpose other than be of service.

    That is why I created a new home for my artistic endeavors. Something for me … to feel my core again. To have a voice doesn’t matter how small and inadequate this voice may be. It is mine. My attempt to create order in my soul in an unpredictable life.

    Follow me along if that resonates with you. You can even share your art if you are creating too. Post a comment if you like. Maybe you are struggling too? It helps to find a voice in making something pretty or unusual, or simply fun.
