You left me at the gate..

The moment you saw the playground

the swings and slides, you left me behind

The maze

I came here to heal, and found a maze
Instead of confusion, I found comfort

I’ll stay here for a while..

Dark spaces

I’m walking in dark spaces
No longer sense, feel.. hear

Just one step at a time, feeling
my way, blindly I grope.
Another night, another day.

All the pain from the past,
becomes the comfort that I crave.

The sweetest Love

For a moment..

Saudi Woman..

Saudi woman to fight ruling.

The ghost of wedding past.

My sister reminded me this morning that it is my brother-in law's wedding anniversary today. I wrote some time back about his wife who was thought to have commited suicide, but instead she had just passed away quietly in her sleep. She was 20 years his senior and they were very much in love. I know this will be a difficult time for him.

Float away..

B and blue (Writers club topic - Abuse against women)

One evening after an especially heated argument, I stood up and headed for the door. I needed to breath, and I needed to slow my pulse down.

It was at that moment that she stepped in front of me, defiant. Hands on her hips and mouth moving rapidly. I could no longer hear anything. My brain had gone into self-preservation mode. Everything slowed down and all I could see was my arms coming up. My hands flat forward, and I wanted to scream No!, but it was too late. I saw her fall away from me and out of my vision.

B fell down the steps to the lounge and made heavy contact with the chair.

It was the worst moment in my life. No matter how much I tried to console her. I new things can never be the same. The one time when I should have gripped her in my arms and hugged her till she calmed down, I chose to become a barbarian.

I trust she will never forgive me for that, and she shouldn't. I know I will never.
