In Ways I Can't Remember
You kiss me
In ways I can't remember
Ever being kissed before.
Soft and gentle,
Your butter-soft lips
Caress my own.
You hold me
In ways I can't remember
Ever being held before.
Firm, but loving,
Your warmth sends shivers
Down my spine.
You touch me
In ways I can't remember
Ever being touched before.
A feather-like touch,
Your love spreads
Through my heart,
In ways I can't remember
Ever being kissed before.
Soft and gentle,
Your butter-soft lips
Caress my own.
You hold me
In ways I can't remember
Ever being held before.
Firm, but loving,
Your warmth sends shivers
Down my spine.
You touch me
In ways I can't remember
Ever being touched before.
A feather-like touch,
Your love spreads
Through my heart,
Like paint across wet paper.
You love me
In ways I can't remember.
You love me
In ways I can't remember.

My Happy Memory...
When asked at a writing class to write about a happy experience, I chose the following:
Blackpool Beach with Danny
I ran across the sand, barefoot. I laughed, and skipped, and jumped. I walked across sinking sand, confronting my fears with a smile on my face. I took pictures, flirted, felt good about myself. I was happy, carefree and in love. In love with Danny, but also in love with life again. It was like the sun shining after a thousand nights. It felt warm on my skin, tingling, warm inside. Happiness.

A Poem
Fear
The stink of loneliness
Sweat dripping
Your spine shivering.
Cold and all alone,
Frozen with despair.
Help me please!
Silent screaming
Nightmares.
Vivid sensations and
Heightened hearing
Silence and death.
Knee's a'knocking
Cold rivers flowing.
Icy breath.
Frozen and hard.

Meditation
My Soul
Calm.
In solitude
Quiet and clear
Lifting my creative energy
My Muscles
Fibres of light.
I surrender
To the misty form
Vapour enters my being.
A radiant light
Blossoming.
A prayer to my soul
To enlighten my desires.
Trying to find the highest heaven.
An illumination
So intense.
Pure exhilaration.
