the fog lay there like a blanket of despair
which end is up?
I can't see through the layers of confusion
what does my heart desire?
Im scared
I am at a crossroads
where does my heart want to lead me ?
One road is the logical choice, 
the way to supporting my family
paying the bills; the conventional, traditional way
A part of me feels like it dies when I go forward on that path
it doesn't feel like my soul's purpose
there isn't as much time anymore to waste
I am being pulled to a higher calling 
which is risky and unplotted
seemingly foolish to the outside world
am I a dreamer? or am I finally being true to my self
and honoring my truth?
selfish I may seem, a fool to others 
but to take the safe road is too confined
I feel stuck and rigid
my breath leaves me and fear sets in
the seemingly safer choice 
becomes a form of death sentence
leaving the less known risky road 
                                                                                                                                    the path to freedom and enlightenment

shaking it up

i've been turned upside down, shaken up and dropped
just before reaching the ground some angels swooped down and caught me
i feel like i died and have been through the worst
the other side is beautiful
the other side is clear and simple

i've been turned upside down, shaken up and dropped
just before crashing to my death i was saved
the angels reached out their arms and held me
the other side is beautiful
the other side is bright and full of hope

i've been turned upside down, shaken up and dropped

just before losing it all  my faith saved me
i trusted and believed in a better life
the other side is free
the other side is peaceful

thank you 
thank you 
thank you 
i am a new
i am a new
i am a new

Keep it Simple



staying sane in an insane world
seemingly impossible with all of the distractions and information flying at me
trying to keep it simple
too many choices
but i hear their voices whispering in my ear
telling me to keep it simple
materialism leads to vandalism
not appreciating the essence of life
sweet simplicity
ignites electricity
within the soul
inspiring me to be free
free from the choices
which lead to toxicity
spoiled self centered souls
preoccupied with possessions
leading to depression
sinking deep down to the bottom
without hope or faith that
tomorrow holds the key
and the sun will shine again
trusting that God and the universe
provide for all
if you believe that there is enough
there will be
so here is the key
hold it to your heart
and if you could only start to trust
without distractions and addictions clouding your mind
strip away the make up
and wake up to a new day
that awaits you
