There are many different sides of me to see. You will meet only those that wish to be seen though. I am a single mother of 5 and Bi-polar trying to survive. If you wish to walk with me through my life maybe we can learn together.
Come with me
lets take a trip
and into my mind you will see
I write words of pain
for all to read
trying to set my soul free
Memories fill my mind
happy thoughts are buried deep,
and pain and misery are all I see
Voices whisper
can't you hear?
I can feel their presence it is near.
One minuet I am happy
the next so sad
Is this the way I will always be?
Now that you have seen the inner me.
Do you understand?
Why sometimes I seem not to be me.

BEHIND THIS MASK
I cannot not see
Behind this mask
So trust can only be the key
while I set out to complete the task
set before me
I kneel upon the floor
With eyes cast down
and arms bound behind my back
Ready to grow, learn, and explore
I cannot not see
Behind this mask
So trust can only be the key
while I set out to complete the task
set before me
Learning to put my trust in you
I surrender my body, my mind, and my soul
So you can teach me how to show a love that can be true
I cannot not see
Behind this mask
So trust can only be the key
while I set out to complete the task
set before me

"old young old man"
I'm just an old man. who's a young man who's a young man who's an old man.
A few years pass. With less trace than a dandelion seed floating by: relatives go, friends move away to cities you never thought of, some friends change into house plants and some of them become enemies and if i water my enemies some might even grow into thorny friends. That's what age means. Injuries, habits with less reason than the sun, bodies change, ink runs, bellies grow with the grass, people lay down. forever, because what wakes up one day goes back to sleep. then one quiet afternoon there's some one you no longer know crying in the mirror with the etched lines at the eyes of an old man who's a young man remembering his life in the future that's now too late: this is the damp silence, and you know that death is something that men know about and always have. This is the silence, because in the silence they still speak. One of these voices is your father. who you become.
but he has to leave before you know that you are your father. you are why. he left. Always, always. They always come in pairs, and you can see it because you are the son or the father or the son who is the father who you become because sometimes the son is more the father than the father is. That's the whole reason: so you can accept what he can give. They always come in these pairs, these big storm clouds slowly watching each other at the far horizon of a great plain, and another that you can't see or even imagine but you know has to be there, before and after, and before even that, because you are one. of them, and this is the taste of sweet rain, and it has never changed.
