poem, may trigger ....sorry
 

I stand before the gates of hell,
tormented, afraid and weak,
fearful of my fate.

How do I abandon my dreams of heaven,
when there is so much foolishness and
idle wasting of time.
This can't be true- though I have
known it all along-
My time is up.

And it's time to pay for my mistakes.
Is this life not mine anymore?
I just thought I could go along and play the game-
But the day of judgement is here before me.
My sins read like a book.

Now that is enough!
Stop this madness!
I do not believe in any of this.

Just turn around...it's not my time.
There is so much work left to be done.
I do have a life worth living.

By turning around, I walk away.
I walk back into my sacred life.
I am safe for now....
I am sane for now....

Dear Bizi,

Thank you.
There is lots of good stuff in here. :) :(

Did you write this?


M.

Thank you Mari,
yes I wrote this.
In our heroines journey group we are approaching a death cycle.
There are mandelas of "gates of Death" and rebirth....
I kept thinking about the gates of hell and this poem just came out of my head, almost writing itself......

Bizi, that really is good! It is heartfelt and that comes through very well.
I appreciate the way you connect to your creative impulses.
:hug:

Beth,
You are working hard on your journey.
I hope you are feeling progress.

Keep up the good work.

Just a couple of more sessions, I am very sad to think it is going to be over soon. We are getting together tomorrow night to go to the Indigo Girls concert, small venue, should be a lot of fun! Then we "die" on friday.....wonder what that will be like.

Have a great time at the concert Beth. I bet the Indigo Girls are fun live. :D

I really like their early stuff... I actually do a couple of covers from their first album - i enjoy it. Unfortunately haven't been heard more recent stuff, since i moved... they don't seem to be known here. :rolleyes:

that is sad about the Heroine's Journey ending. i wonder if you can keep in touch with some of the women... if you want to. anyway, let us know how things go.

(((HUGS)))

Hi Bizi

I think you did a great job. And I like "Waves" wondered if you could
keep in touch.

Donna:grouphug:

14 months is a long time to be with a group of woman...we shall see if any thing continues, it would be nice to think that it will....
not sure....

Dear Beth
