The Journey

The Journey
24 December 2017

A scared little girl was running to and fro,
Trying to find something, or someone, she didn't know.
A thousand thoughts were whirling and creeping inside her mind;
A doorway to her heart, in darkness, she couldn't find.
Then a fire started stirring and shining from up above;
A little spark of hope, of healing, and of love.
It started to brighten the gloomy way,
The path began switching from night to day.
As her feet began to twitch and tingle,
Her frame of mind went surely single.
She knew at that moment what she must do,
But where would she get the strength to make it through?
Ahead lay mush and cracks and stones,
That she felt would surly break her bones.
Bravely she began pushing, jumping, and moving,
Her heart muscles started slowly improving.
For as long as she kept her eyes
On her next step towards her prize,
The path grew rails of hope,
And from the ceiling came a rope.
The gift of these tools helped her to fight,
In doing what she knew to be right.
And when she stood firmly at the door,
She had no idea what was in store.
But she knew that she need not show fear,
For suddenly a small peephole did appear.
When she began viewing what was inside,
She was truly filled with a humbled pride.
For her faith and good works were finally rewarded,
And the doubt inside her mind was completely aborted.
She knew in that moment she could never explain,
The unique peace that filled her heart, all words seemed too plain.
While faithfully pushing the door ajar,
She heard a soft voice boom from afar;
"You're welcome here, I've missed you so!
But if you want, you are free to go,
And when you decide you want to return,
That negativity inside you, I'll gladly burn.
I've done it many times before,
But it's something you've forgotten or tried to ignore.
The love you are feeling can forever be yours,
This comfort is for all believers who walk through My doors.
When you finally decide to stay here with Me,

I promise I will carry you into Eternity."

Frozen

W hy am I so scared to heal? Is it laziness? Is it fear? What am I scared of? Why don't I want to thrive, only survive? I have issues with isolation, laziness, distractions. How do I get out of this loop? I'm frozen, stalled. Procrastination and avoidance are my daily routines. Frozen 24 April 2022 Marie Slider Scared to heal, scared to live, Why is there no care that I give? Desire to run or walk away, But can't take a step to get out of my way. I'm frozen in a bubble of time, Completely surrounded by dust and grime. Cobwebs entangle my conscious mind, Body entangled by ropes that bind. Apathy threatens to take control, Darkening my beautiful soul. My light inside, it flickers and fades, Isolation cuts like sharpened blades. Fear of failure and fear of success, My brain and heart are completely a mess. Can't see a way out most of the days, My mind's labyrinth firmly betrays. Self-awareness, a strength to many who seek, For a person like m

My Squad of Angels

My Squad of Angels 29 December 2017 They're not that far away; all those who passed before. They're waiting for my arrival just behind this mortal door. They're watching and guiding prayerfully in that space that's just beyond. They're in the creases of my heart; a place they're very fond. They're floating through my memories, to help sort out my past. They want me to find happiness, but their flag is at half mast. They do this to help me bear the weight of struggles along the way.  They want to give their strength to me during every painful day. They wait beyond my consciousness, their warmth they want to share; Sometimes I feel it blowing in the wind that moves my hair. I see them in a stranger's face as a flicker or a feeling. Sometimes the similarities scare me through the ceiling. I wonder if that person may be sent from one who passed, Or if a chance connection is a hook my loved ones

Confined

I started writing this, and I was fighting with the idea to post it, because I’m still working on the strength to continue on this journey of healing, after a little bump in the road. Then as I was reading the Bible, a certain verse was brought to my attention, and again I was prompted that I needed to share this. I’m not sure who this is for, please, just know that God loves you, and the wisdom I have, is that God is watching out for all of us, and He will give us the strength to get through pain, and help others. KJV Ecclesiastes 9:18 “Wisdom is better than weapons of war; but one sinner destroyeth much good.” Confined 22 February 2018 The simple thought to run, goes trailing through my mind, At a million miles per hour, it almost makes me blind. The idea that somehow I should have escaped; The mental confusion, why do I feel raped? That person never laid a finger on me. The fear, nevertheless, was complete reality. Feeling lost, torn, and broken, my
