Ferris Wheel
Some of us grow into a future we never would've thought possible.
And no one can say anything when you saved yourself from drowning.
No soul, dead or alive, laid awake in that bitter stillness...
We felt the whole world spinning, seated on a Ferris wheel. Our eyes stretched further than the horizon when the gears cranked to the top -
But we never really moved.
If anyone can hear us, know -
Death taught us to swim in sorrow but never too far from shore. Because that world out there is no place for dreamers.
A good, real place for me and you.

The Devil's home can be the most nurturing place. He's made me scared to be alone.

It struck me how this feeling of sorrow crept inside me, sank my heart, and met with the sunlight seeping through my blinds. How two separate worlds can breathe in the same enclosed space was overwhelmingly beautiful and tragic at the same time. And I got drunk off both.

Out West where the dark horse gallops
across red deserts and sand dunes
and chases the setting sun,
my love sinks into pinks and blues
and crashes the surface with jewels,
soon to sleep and left to shimmer,
incandescent, beautiful memories
glimmering across a vast sea
of what we could be,
of where you once, not long ago,
left me

In silence you will receive more communication than in speech. And if you're smart you'll listen and know when it's time to speak.

From the formless void, we become. From the darkest depths, we are reborn. From all of life's puzzling events, we are and always have been, a living paradox.

The Magician 🪄
I feel like for the first time in ages, my emotions don't fuel my actions. They are wise teachers and I take the lessons they teach me about myself to rationalize what is best for me. In many ways, the liberation I feel is directly a result of a heart-mind alignment and I feel balanced in the alchemy forged from experiencing highs and lows and recognizing the reasoning behind them, which then provides clarity and certitude in my decisions and next steps. Like lampposts, emotions light the mind, which then creates new paths in conjunction to the depth of value emotions bring of self-discovery, goals, ambitions, and refreshing realizations. True wisdom lies in the personal authority and assurance it takes to blend and mix all of life's different ingredients at your disposal - learning to create something pleasant by adding or taking away something - the understanding that flux is inevitable and a part of the natural order in the Universe but that you too, can facilitate it when it is useful to you. And herein lies the Magician archetype - the master of the matrix.
I hope you have the willingness to reclaim your power and the bravery to realize and shape the reality you deserve and want to have for yourself. It is terrifying to know and wake up to the very real fact we are masters and we control everything within us which bends the laws of space and time to match our new vibration. You begin to create new codes into your energetic field once your awareness widens, which lays out a different stage in your life - an absolutely new reality. And you can choose how it looks by choosing to own the things you've been taught to forget through social conditioning and political, service-to-self agendas.
Listen to your emotions - use them with gratitude. What are they trying to teach you for next time? Remember your strength.
Recall your power.

Shhh...
There are secrets yonder
in corners of our wake
Listful eyes in whispers trace
the stench in omission
where truths lie in attics
built on cards of shame

There are places we haven't gone
I haven't touched you yet
I see the world in your heart
The stars in your eyes
I feel you sitting close
And hear the distance scream
As I drown myself in more alcohol
Another empty dream

Grace enters as losses melt. Fortitude unmatched in the pain felt. Long lost are the virtues of contracting receptivity into light and heaven. The creation of seed formed from the nurture of Earth's motherhood, her womb, embracing us with permanent love and showering us with warmth and safety. She's the glowing lantern far in the distance of dark tunnel caves, the beacon moonlight in shadow thoughts and doubtful hearts. She is the divine feminine, our mother, ever-present, unconditional love.
Happy Mother's Day! May we strive to reconnect with the love and acceptance we have to give, as often as we can, in honour of our mothers. 💐
