Imprisoned deep within the soul are
emotions created where both fear and
truths are stored; it is there that we find
ourselves caged behind invisible doors.
Filtering through the layers of one’s mind
daily is the only way; it may stop the
possibility of getting lost in the fog of our
yesterdays.
Clear the mind and soul of clutter, congestion
and conflict; free it from these windowless
rooms, keeping such thoughts will create an
existence into which you would surely be
doomed.
Knowing self-value is the first step for the soul
to hear freedoms call; living in the “now” is the
only way to tear down internal prison walls.

but here are guarded secrets,
that I do not wish to remember,
that I do not wish,
to expose to the light.
Here are things I have buried,
far within these walls,
with nary a crack
provided for escape.

Keep your windowless rooms with only one door leading in and out; there may be treasured words hiding in the dusty corners that will brighten your world…good job. AJM

KJ…your blog has a wonderful feel, a warmth; it will evolve into what it is going to be and that is you. It is not for everyone, but I enjoy the widget for My Community, it is not the numbers that is important, but I enjoy seeing the icon’s of those who follow me or have stopped by…and yes, I try to return to each and everyone within a short period of time. I am alone with adult children, I write fiction, poetry and paint, time is my only asset and I am rich in time. You have a wonderful young family, enjoy. Ann
