I am Just an Empath

Some folks don't realize the sensitivity of an empath.

There are many degrees of feeling in an empath

as some of us feel much more greater than others.

We are vulnerable,

yet, strong ... but not to be taken for granted.

Our intuition serves us well - even when we don't use it

but when we do, look out!

You will never find one so loving so kind

so loyal, as a empath.

You can mistake our strong feelings as being obsessed

quirky or exhausting... Yes, I feel that way all the time.

We empaths seek each other's company

for we know and accept one another - you know,

the been there, done that sort of thing...

and I am so grateful to you,

for your understanding,

I am

because without you...

I am lost child

inside my soul

when all I want

is to feel free to be, me.

Images Of My Autumn

Autumn,
 my favorite season, my favorite time
of the year. When the Earth's precious beings, the trees are showing their illustrious colors - to send us a message... how beautiful we really are.

We take so much for granted, we forget the simple beauty that is around us, we forget the simple beauty, in us all. Look at our reflection, one last time before the cold sets in and takes us into some type of survival mode - to reflect, forgive, and move forward.

 And while the road, may be long to reach our quest for happiness, we must embrace
this simplicity of beauty in us... Autumn is allowing us to do that... one more time.
Too much time is wasted on what we should have...leave it... do what you must do, for yourself.

 
And while the leaves hang on and bloom one last time their true colors unto you,
you have that chance to show your own colors of who you are.
You may not have done that in the past and keep putting off your true intentions
the greatest of your beauty.
Why postpone any longer?

Autumn
reminders us, that no time is like the present, the NOW.
So NOW is as good as  any time to change to the true self you really are.
Be in gratitude, walk in truth,
and love all that is around you...
Even when you feel alone
know, that you ARE loved.
That is my Autumn wish for you.

I love you,
K'

Turning a Page (Poem)

Departing

            a place once home

            is much like turning a page

            in your life.

As the page turns

            your journey slowly unfolds

            the map of memories,

            places visited, lived

            now treasured

            in your heart.

Many are the roads ahead

            detour of tears and fears

            highways of joys and good times

            destination, unknown

            for there is so much to see and do

            people to meet

            to know and love.

A new home

            I look at my surroundings,

            the page of life, turns once more.

The Old Garden and the Golden Flower (Poem)

In the old garden
a golden flower opens
by the garden wall.
Its pollen gave life to me
the day I forgave myself
of iniquities.

In this old garden
I retreat with great splendor
with each breath of life
abide by love given to me.
This golden flower
lives beyond its existence;
each petal brings joy within
heartless souls,
and bestows each child
with the sweetest of aspiration
to be their best person.

In this old garden
I rest on the garden wall,
leaning on an old friend
with whom I have lost contact,
touching the inscription
I wrote long ago,
paying tribute
to the golden flower.
It reads:
“If blood is thicker than water,
then the ink of this pen is my life’s blood.”
A moment of soft tears of recollection,
I’m giving back to the golden flower a feeling of triumph;

on bended knees I am in gratitude,
for the golden flower
lives on in all.

** I love, you.
