As we enter the second week of 2015, I have found myself hiding. Hiding from the world, from family, from friends and even from myself. One of my last posts from 2014 was a poem and video about being tired of wearing masks, hiding my true self from others. I want freedom and even intimate transparency, even though it scares me so much.
My desires have waned over the years and now it feels like it is time to step out from hiding. I still have no idea where I am going in 2015 or what I will be doing. In other words I have no goals or resolutions at least not yet. :)Â More to come on that I am sure.
There are forces at work in my life and I feel myself being lead back but to what, I do not know. So here is the first post of the new year so buckle up and enjoy the ride! For who knows where the road may take us and the adventure that awaits! ~M
In the shadows
Darkness resides
In the shadows
Evil hides
Hiding within
Hiding without
Hiding in plain sight
Hiding..
Choosing not to see
Frozen steams
Rivers of ice
Memories dream
Hiding from
Hiding out
Hiding in plain sight
Hiding…
Pain we feel
Lost meaning
Words ring hollow
Fates careening
Hiding down
Hiding up
Hiding in plain sight
Hiding…
Masked in smiles
Invisible breath
Long lilting miles
Courting death
We spend our days
Hiding…
As love decays
While we are hiding

I tend to hibernate..it’s like wanting and trying to get things all straightened out..Take time out in God’s presence. Sometimes we need to separate ourselves and to be still and just listen. Write what you hear. Remember His voice is gentle and loving. He is patient and understanding. We have to work on dismissing the opposite of peace for our enemy is a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour.. Strength and blessing to you in Jesus name…
Well said, I certainly struggle with being still and listening. Thank you for commenting. God bless!
