Babies laugh's are

Drops of sunshine

Dew on leaves at break of day

Joy wrapped in a warm blanket

So much bliss

In this heaven

[journey-of-the-dahlia]

That letter you thought you wrote for me

I folded it up neatly and

Use it as a coaster for my coffee

The Broken Mason Jar or

The Best of Intentions

What are you so upset about?

What’s wrong with you?

Do you need some help?

Maybe you should smile more even if you don’t feel like smiling

Fake it till you make it

Have you talked to somebody about it?

Start taking vitamin D. It’s the sunshine vitamin you know

Have you tried getting more sunshine?

I know a good naturopath

You might be low in essential fatty acids

Try taking fish oil

Try adding coconut oil and water to your diet

You should drink more fluids you might be dehydrated

Have you tried changing your diet?

You should try getting more exercise

Have you thought about joining a gym?

What about yoga?

Are there any social clubs you could join?

Maybe you need to get out more

Go see a movie

Hang out with your friends

You should get more sleep

You should get less sleep

Maybe if you cleaned your room you would feel less stressed and get a better nights sleep

You should keep a diary and write down your feelings

Have you talked to your doctor?

Some medications take months to work you know

What about a counselor?

Keep trying

Have you had your thyroid checked?

Have you had your blood sugars checked?

What about getting your hair done?

Massages always relax me. What about a massage?

Have you tried aromatherapy?

Have you tried essential oils?

Have you tried meditation?

Past life regression?

Progressive relaxation?

What about going back to church?

Have you tried praying?

Join the church choir

Damn it, do something……………

Snap out of it

It can’t be that bad

What have you got to be so upset about?

Maybe if you didn’t spend all day in bed you’d feel better

Oh don’t make such a mountain out of a molehill

Calm down

I had no idea it was that bad

Is tumblr a place where revisions/other arrangements of writers work can be posted in the comments with the original work of author or is that considered too slippery a slope?

Ripples distort what lies beneath. Learn to calm the waters and see beyond the surface or be captive to nothing more than a reflection

I have spent most of my life without mourning what I have lost, instead holding it in deep until I am so full I have no room for anything else. Mourning is underrated. It has helped me release heavy burdens and make space in my soul for all the things in store for me on my journey

“If you’ve been up all night and cried till you have no more tears left in you - you will know that there comes in the end a sort of quietness. You feel as if nothing was ever going to happen again.” - C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

2020

This blinding light

Conceives long shadows of

Black strap molasses

Distorted visions

Through swollen eyes

Straining

Sticky, slow, incomplete

Sick of healing

Embracing pain for fleeting relief

Ripping at scars

A festering infection

Introspection

Hindsight

[journey-of-the-dahlia]

Facebook

A very one sided relationship

[journey-of-the-dahlia]

How did you learn to say the words

That I can't say myself,

"You are beautiful."

[journey-of-the-dahlia]

I stayed

The well ran dry

Brought up sand

Through our fingers falling

Failing

Time and time again

Starving, parched

Sandpaper tongues

Did not move you

I poured out

What little water I had left

Turning inward

Pushing onward

Sinking steps labour

Into the desert

To begin again
