Ghost Dancing

How my healing feels, at times.

Among the shadows

My feet move

Crossing the plane

Of life.

 

Shuffling

In and out

The memory stream

With each step taken.

 

Stirring up

Long forgotten sensations

While my body moves

Between consciousness

And the Dream World.

 

Searching for answers

To questions

Never knew

Existed.

 

Seeking guidance

And wisdom

Where chaos

And doubt

Rule my soulscape.

 

Uniting

What was whole

Once more.

this is such a lovely and positive write! the world is changing

There will always be questions without answers, that is the difficult part. But don't worry my friend, time can be a healer and a teacher. Keep searching, you will find those answers.

[therisa]

Thank you, Willweb. Most of my life, I have been searching for an answer, to explain myself, to me. Not sure, if there is an answer, to this question.

[BlackRose]

Great flowing piece with such thought into it. We all want answers to what perplexes or seems out of place of what one or they may think or we may even more so think is wrong in or of us.

[therisa]

Thank you, BlackRose. There are times, which my unconscious speaks to me, through my poetry, and I don't realize it, until after the poem is written. This is one such piece.

[BlackRose]

I get ya. I have done so too at tines but more so when writing to someone or speaking to them. And then I say or think to myself why did I say that, lol.

[therisa]

Usually, it's something, I need to look at, but am scared to do so.

[BlackRose]

don't worry, we re all human and you're not the 'only' one with this.

[BlackRose]

...or has said or done something they maybe wish they hadn't done.

[therisa]

I know, but it feels like, everything is happening, at the same time, for me.

[BlackRose]

I understand and have been there and feel like I'm there too in my own way/s at this moment in my life.

[Lyn Anderson]

Wonderful, and great rhythm. One minor thing -- doubt rules, not rule.

[therisa]

Is this, because I'm talking about multiple subjects, KL? I ask, because I'm curious and want to do better.

Excellent stanza: "Seeking guidance; And wisdom; Where chaos; And doubt; Rule my soulscape."

[therisa]

Thank you, Momzilla. It's one of those stanza, which felt right, when it rose to the surface of my mind.

[MomzillaNC]

You're welcome.

The landscape of desolation can be a lonely one especially when plagued by chaos and doubts.

[therisa]

Thank you, Icelandicblue. Sad, but true.
