How to Heal a Heart



    How to heal a heart. You wanna heal you say? Well it's not easy. 

That gaping chasm in your chest can't just be sewn together with a few a few stitches, 

or cemented in place with super glue. NO! 

This endless pit of confusion and anger isn't a quick and easy 

fix. 

Step 1:  pour the hurt & sadness out 

of the hole and onto the paper. 

Step 2: Be real not not sensical.

Let it flow out, let the poem say what you can't what every one else  is afraid to ask. 

"Does the pain ever go away?" 

Step 3: Cry, sob let the waterfall of salty tears wash down you jaw, 

each tear releasing a drop of pain as it shatters on the floor. 

HEAL.

Balloon


Balloons

A balloon, is such a simple toy. It's just a thing of stretchy rubber full or air or helium and string. What's so fun about that right? But to a child, it's a Rocket Ship or a UFO or it can even be a Soccer ball. Sometimes, it's not the big fancy things that will make a child happy and have it last. It can be the simple and small things like talking time to listen to them and toys like balloons with maybe a faces drawn on them that can touch children's hearts. 

Gone Fishing


Gone Fishing: Suzie Zurflu


"gone fishing. a sign that says we've locked up and have gone to do something we love. we don't have these signs anymore.

how lovely would it be to live in a world where we could put up our own "gone fishing" signs?

gone dancing
gone painting
gone writing
gone singing
gone walking
gone reading
gone....


just gone."  

I'm jealous. I'm jealous I haven't thought to write something like this. 
I wish that I could show you how I feel with my words,
that I didn't use the word I so much.

Movie quote



                                  "You're a genius!"

                    "Yes, I shall go down in history as the man who opened a door."


                                            -Ever After

Sign



                            Rain is pouring down from the sky, just as your tears stream endlessly

                                      down your cheek.

        The dark ash colored clouds trudge across the sky; consuming all light and joy.

                                      Feeling like the sorrow within your heart.

                             You suddenly turn your head and glance outside

                                         looking for some kind of sign.


                                  And there, there gleaming and shimmering across the cloud darkened sky

                                         is your sign. A brightly colored rainbow

The Night



        Black, Frightening, and cold.

 It creeps slowly. 


        Suddenly as if someone flipped off the lights,

 you are plunged into nothingness.


                       Fear starts to set in, slowly turning your heart to ice.

Every little creek sets you on edge.

         Just as you are about to give in to the icey hopelessness,

                          light appears
just in time to guide you out and give you hope. Hope to escape the despair of the night.
