Quote Of The Week
‘We all have an old knot in our heart we wish to untie.’
I’m Not Breaking Promises
I’m not breaking promises
To myself anymore
I’m not slamming my fingers
In the door anymore
I’m not sabotaging the things
That are good for me
I’m not holding on
To the ‘pain-body‘
I’m not saying God
Won’t give me wings
‘Cos now I know
That he forgives me things
There’s so much more
That He will do
I just really need
To forgive others too.
And it’s time to stop
The sackcloth and ashes
It’s time to stop
The thousand lashes
It’s time…
I stopped the war.
I’m not breaking promises
To myself anymore.
Quote Of The Week
‘Nothing makes the light, the wonder, the treasure, stand out so well as darkness.’
Tonight After Midnight
When darkness and shadow come creeping in
I think of you and my night begins
I close my eyes and silence comes
The strains – they fade
And tranquility hums
And then I see you
There is peace to find
You appear quite clearly, there, in my mind
You sit there by my sleepy hollow
You sit there by my bed
And in your hand you hold a rose
Of softest deepest red
And all the night long you smile
You’re there it seems for eternity
Until morning comes and calls to me
Quote Of The Week
‘Then there was the heavy drinker who picked up the wrong can and, instead of drinking beer he drank heavy duty varnish – a terrible death but a beautiful finish.’
