Stripping away the rose colored glasses of denial concerning my reality. Getting in touch with truth. Reaching out to others in empathy concerning their reality and their walk to truth.

Ode to a friend ~ unconditional control





Can’t you see me? Can you see me~ I’m so lonely, so lost?
This better not rhyme because I’ve already paid a high cost
To love, to hate~
To all the things that make me ache

Don’t you have control? You have control~ of my love, my heart.
What was I thinking to give you that from the very start?
To goad me or guide me~
To hesitate dismissing your plea

Please change me, rearrange me, into whatever makes you want to stay.


Won’t you stay? You won’t stay because inside I’ve already told you, ‘no.’
Already, ready for your sigh; your last goodbye~
But please don’t go.

  2. ...And now it's not you (hopefully)- a poignant piece that also used to be me too, but not any longer. Best wishes, Julie xoxox

  3. Hi Julie,
    No it's no longer me. I'm not in the 'controller's' shoes, nor in the 'controllee's' shoes. True peace comes through self-realizarion.
    In peace with xxox,
    Dixie
