Voice of the Heart: Poetry Break

I felt that I wanted to avoid the prose today add have a bit of fun. So…

My Heart Speaks

It tells me exactly what I need
Then I logic it out
How come my logic is never compatible?
How come common sense makes me miserable?
Why does my careful planning
always go wrong?

Yes I know
The heart knows
And I know too
So why do I ignore us both?

I know that’s why things go wrong
I just don’t know why I place
common sense that makes me unhappy
over the truth that will set me free

I tell myself that my heart
is not demanding enough
doesn’t make itself clear
Yet I’m clear I’m about to do
the wrong thing for the wrong reasons
Sigh

I swipe on Tinder
then date anyone who asks me
I just want to be loved
I never have been
It’s like a game where I do not
understand the rules
I’m looking for a relationship
They’re checking out my assets
for a short-term commitment

I should stop
My heart ‘suggests’ it
with all the power of a klaxon
played through a bull horn
I pretend I don’t know what it means

I wish I understood myself
but I don’t
If only someone could help me
sort me out
identify the issues
I would be so grateful

Me

I can help
you just don’t know how to be happy

Love
Your Heart

It simply cannot be as simple as that!

God give me strength!

I'm a writer, public speaker, medium, and spiritual thinker. I suffered from acute anxiety from the age of 16 until I was well into my 50s, when I finally found methods that helped me to put it behind me. My struggles led to me exploring life through poetry, then plays, and over a 15 year period I made notes for a self help book which I published in 2015. Details on the book page. Although I am a psychic medium and loved the work, it didn’t feel right for me. It was an utter privilege, but my path was the exploration of what it means to be spirit in the real world and how we can make practical use of those abilities. Nowadays I write, blog, and teach soul-centred living, which is a gentle way of undoing past programming and connecting to your essential self, or soul. If you’re interested email me and we can chat. No pressure, it’s right for you or it’s not and you will know. The groups meet on line so no going out on cold, wet, winter’s evenings. On a personal note, I’m based in the UK. Married with five cats, no children, and four grandchildren, thanks to our inherited daughter, who has gifted us four beautiful little people that bring us such joy. Hope you enjoy the blogs. Deb xx
