Do we learn

​Do we ever really learn

The difference between, the need to hold out a  hand

Or clutching someone’s heart in a vicelike band

The fluidity of trust

Is better than iron resolve, that doesnt flex and rusts

That we all need space

Love doesn’t mean shackles tightly in place

Unthinking actions will cause hurt

How ever much someone cares, some things are cursed

How ever hard we love

Some people are not in the same grove

Do we ever really learn

To learn lessons from yesterday

Not get mired in despair let misery hold sway

Do we ever learn

To live life at its best?

Floating

​
Floating on fantasy, with my head in the clouds

Drifting, detached,  drowning aroused

Cumulus clouds, capture and create

Shapes of desire, in the stratosphere communicate

Images burning bright within

Drawing ever closer to touch warm skin

Dreamscape running the dialogue primed

Holding the images close in my mind

Floating on fantasy, with my head in the clouds

Sleeping deeply, dreams within.

Happiness mislaid

​Happiness lost

Emotion strained

Tears slipping down 

Into a lake of pain

Darkness hovering

Misery filtering

Love dispelled

Days of hell

Realisation, life goes on

Going to be hard

Missing your song

Climbing the peak

To reach the top

New vista stretching

Freefall the drop

New love out there

Will one day find

Find other joys

To ease my mind

Happiness lost?

No just mislaid.

Who are you on line?

​On line, interacting with strangers who become online friends; are you the same person,  as when interacting with friends and family in everyday encounters? Do you enhance your personality. become wittier, livelier, sexier?

Interactions by text, messenger,face to face video can be more intense, more intimate but still remote, does that enable you to become the person you would really like to be? Have you ever misrepresented your age? Used a picture of a younger self or suspected that somebody you are interacting with is doing just that?

I

Talking in the ether

I was talking to nobody
And nobody listened

The depth of the words
Were shallow unheard

I cried to the wind

Lonely, not knowing how to cross the divide

My wishes and hopes 

Carried on the ethers tide
When they met the right ears
Trust dispelled all my fears
Letting go of buried sighs
Finding friendship a suprise
In cyber Floating unfocused
The pull of friendship potent

Adventures played out
No concerns no doubt

Laughter caring and sharing
Some soul baring

I was talking to somebody

Somebody was listening

Beliefs

​You are the true creator of your reality

You react based on your mentality

You are never, totally a victim,  to circumstance

Its  what you believe and how you act, that forms the dance

You may have little control, of events happening in the world, or in life

 Things that go on, that cause you so much strife

But you are in control, of how you experience and react to  those events

Your conscious and unconscious thoughts, put strain  on these  moments

Why do you react with anger , to something you can’t change

Instead of working within your sphere of influence to rearrange

 The true cause of your emotional response are  learnt behaviours 

Sometimes timely defence mechanisms, but sometimes not our saviours.

Are the thoughts you have about that event, maybe not heaven sent?

Thoughts generate our emotional experiences

Whether we realise it or not, they are giving us clearance

Our beliefs are learned

They can be turned

If lifes a bitch

With many a hitch

Can changing your thoughts

Generate peace, acceptance, release?
