‘How Far Away is The Magic?’ #writing #lorijeanfinnila #womentravelers

 Where is this next chapter taking me?


I have a wide open space that I can choose from.

Even though I may fall I want to take a chance.


Not sure if I should go that far. Do I have to to find the magic: the one chance that will make the decision for the rest of my life, the one that will give me happiness, hopefully without interruption.


Interruption with pain, struggle, abuse, lost beauty to my life, all the magic that I want.


How far away is it?

Sailing Butterfly #womenwriters #lorijeanfinnila #sailingbutterfly

I’m like a butterfly flying away

I’m not coming back 

for any further disturbance

My life span too has come to term

Of any back like 

Where I’ve been


I’m soaring higher where I can breathe

Hoping to find others like me

With many colors that I won’t ail

Please clasp my own up there

to no harm’s way

Wherever you are 

I’ll still be with you

See I’m a mender too

No matter how high I can only sail

I’ll be among you.

Sing Little Baby, Sing With Me : Inspired by First Aid Kit Song 'Emmylou #lorijeanfinnila #singetsongwriter #isabelle #mylittlebaby'

Sing Little Baby Sing With Me

Image by Marjon Besteman from Pixabay


I'm here in the desert

Sweating, not breathing 

Looking for you

Sing with me

My ghost

I’ll give in


I’ll be your everything 

I’ll be your dreams

I know you won't grow

If I don't let you go


I’ve been there

Holding up the door

To everyone stronger than me with a problem 

But I’m holding on everyday

With the strength I lack

You keep returning in my picture 


You bring me to you

When you pass through

When I'm not asking for a story

That I so desperately need in my life


I’ll be your everything if you’ll be the end of my pain

You’ll be my future 

All my dreams

All the existence of my life

Just sing with me 

little baby

Sing with me

What Do I Write About #lorijeanfinnila #writer #autoimmunediseases #chronicillness #movement

 

What do I write about?


Image by Gerd Altmann from Pixabay


I just checked my social media


No one wrote me back. 


I found a woman who couldn't move 


I found one without shaking


Another gets too dizzy


I with my bicycle 



Chorus


What's wrong with me


No one wants to see me


No one wants to talk to me


No one wants to hear what I have to say



I try to go to the gym


I have to cancel every ride


The air is so thick


We're all waiting in line


To sleep



The dreaming I use to know the cuddling on my bed


The warmth of the sheets


That makes no difference at all now


the love I felt is gone



Chorus


No one wants to hear what I have to say


…….




I'm tired of fighting to breathe


Too tired to walk


Counting everything I do


Make sure it doesn't make me dizzy…..



I go.round and round I spin


Again


Sometimes only in my head


I'm on that rink in my mind on those uneven bars


I know others do it like this


Sometimes they just lay in bed


It's so much easier



I want to cry


But I go to music


I hear sweet melodies come from my heart and soul


And it keeps me going


Maybe I can share my joy



I want to move


I want to dance


I want to skate


Ride that bike


Swim in that pool without drowning 


Eat that food without worrying 



I want to be me


I want to be me again



I'm so dizzy


I'm so dizzy



Again.
