Building walls insures we’re safe
Walls that continue to separate
From the fears of our unknown fate
We build walls to confine
A flawed Realty of
Our rigid hearts and minds
We build walls that lock us in
Binding chains around
Our self-righteous sins
It seems as though
Everywhere I go
there I am
I’m locked out
Will you
Let me in…

Stay on your toes!
Will you be my friend when I am a star
Will you be my friend when I am me
Will you be my friend when you see
The loneliness inside of me
When I fail to be the person that I should be
When I am afraid and I
Show the ugly side of me
When I have fallen from my lofty star
Will you be there to break my fall
Will you hold me when I cry
Lift me up and help me stand
Will you be my friend till the end
I love you
Will you be my friend…

I’m so distraught!!!
I can’t believe what has happened to my WordPress blog.
Over the last few weeks my site was sluggish and my media wasn’t loading completely, at times it wouldn’t load at all.
My best thinking (and my lack of knowledge) led me to believe that possibly it was the result of the large amount of pictures stored in my WordPress media library.
My solution was to clean out my media library, and
“kill two birds with one stone.”
(For lack of a better term)
First I would dispose of the bulk from my wordpress media library, thus leaving more room for my new pictures.
Secondly my WordPress site would load quickly and easily ensuring it to be more user friendly. Right?
Wrong! Just gos to show how computer savy I am.
I deleted pictures for about an hour.
I probably deleted six or seven hundred photos.
I went to bed that night and when I awoke the next morning, I opened my WordPress blog, and I was utterly shocked!
All those photos I deleted the night before, they were also deleted off of my blogs. I stared at my computer screen in frozen in horror!
Who would believe that if you cleaned your library out that your photographs would also be ripped completely off your blog!
One would think that wordpress would have a pop-up saying,
“this deletion will also delete photos off of your blog,” or something to that affect. My phone and computer warns me with a pop-up saying,
“are you sure you want to delete this picture?” How hard would that be for WordPress to do this? (Never mind)
My first rational thought was to find a solution, easy right? I started surfing the web franticly for some kind of logical solution, but this was to no avail.
Next, I called my daughter Brandy,
for I had remembered she had taken a WordPress class last year.
She informed me that the only way to fix the problem was to open my dashboard, then pull my blogs into edit. I would then have to re-add my backup pictures that were stored on my computer; I would also have to remember which photos go where?
Shouldn’t be to hard right? Considering I only have to sort through ten or eleven thousand pictures stored on my T B
There’s approximately two hundred and fifty blogs to pull.
The next step would be to download a WordPress plug-in to avoid this horrible situation in the future. “Great.”
I was clueless in regards to the importance of this plugin. I guess that’s the cost for not reading the fine print `~°•○☆~sob sob~☆○•°~÷♡ or the cost of not enrolling in a WordPress class at my neighborhood university. ÷(
I honestly feel like deleting my four hundred thirty blogs and starting over!
I’m not quite sure what I’ll do at this point for I’m too emotionally involved.
If anyone has any expertise on this process, maybe an easier way (?) [Crossing my fingers]++++++++
please feel free to share.
Sincerely,
Distraught-dawnasong

My wants are not met
My needs are
I feel as one with a lonely star
Perennials breathe life into me
I see the forest through the trees
I am one with nature eternally
I’m alone among the tumbleweeds
I’m not lonely for I can see
No monetary lust a need
Abundant peace simplicity
A gentle breeze caresses me
Pearl of innocence my destiny
Mountains valleys desert breeze
A sky that sets my spirit free
Love wins
I love you
Just the
Way
You
Are
Love wins…
She is unable to see her beauty
A mind in chains
Open your spiritual eyes
Only then will you see
An intelligent creative beautiful
Sunrise over the ocean sea
Lovely precious girl inside of thee
Daughter if only you could
You were created to perfection
That will always will be
I love you Sunshine
Become that brilliant sunrise
Glowing forever over the ocean sea
Yourself free…

I went for my usual monthly check up today. I have some health issues at present, (short term).
While waiting for the doctor I gazed around this empty, pale, and lifeless room. My first thought was,
“Doctor’s offices are so depressing.”
Then it hit me, I was being negative, something I’m trying to rid myself of.
Embracing positivity has been my daily goal for the last year.
When I realized where my train of thought had taken me I stopped, closed my eyes,and felt the stillness of the room. Opening my eyes with a new perspective, I looked up and much to my surprise there was a tiny sign hanging up at the very top of the ceiling beyond eye level. It said “joy.”
It was such an inspiration! Another reminder that if we look for the good we’ll find it. My mind and spirit felt so joyful.
I began to study the entire room to see if I missed something else that might increase my level of consciousness.
Much to my amazement, I noticed this precious little tree peeking through a tiny window situated also out of eye level.
I snapped a few shots and felt an overwhelming confirmation that everything was going to be alright,
as long as I see and feel the joy in our world. It’s everywhere just look around you. See for yourself.
I know love brings joy and it heals us, our minds, bodies and spirits.
Life it good. Louis Armstrong said it best, ” It’s a wonderful world. ”
The beautiful little window with the precious tree.

Oh if I could find a way to
Just dream my life away
Dancing with the stars at night
Heavens arms holding me tight
Clouds to float on in the day
Resonances of purest ways
Musicals of Van Gogh
Harmony with my soul
Oh how I wish it was to be
The only side that I could see

My mother
How she made everything
Beautiful and new
Her smile surely lit up every room
Her kindness and her love
Always took away my gloom
I miss you mom with
All my heart and soul
Reminiscences of all the
Sweetest stories that you told
Never in the entire world would there be
A mother as lovely as thee
It’s seems like only yesterday
You would rock me on your knee
Your perfume smelled as lilies
And flowers by the sea
Our trips to the ocean shore
For lunch and taste the salty breeze
Oh mother how I miss you
I just wished that we could be
Together just once more
The day will come when we will be
Together forevermore
Happy Mother’s day my dear precious
Mother I love you..

I want to run
I want to scream
I want to tear down these
Dammed iron walls
My mouth frozen
Bitter secrets of my soul
Yet the need is extreme
And painfully old
This woman steals my innocence
She steals my eyes without consent
A nightmare captured
In her wicked schemes
A part of me hates her
A part of me dreams
Then I realize she protects me
A camouflage a shield
Her voice commands
I hide behind her strength
I’m a frightened little girl
I pretend that everything’s okay
The only thing that i know that’s real
Is the sadness that I feel
I know the clouds inside my eyes
Will eventually go away
Peace just peace sought to no avail
A sightless visionary contemplating
The destiny of her eyes
The only thing to be authentic
are the clouds in my skies
That is the only place
That my love soars
Excluding
All
Lies…

The cup I must partake
A bitter one indeed
A result of past mistakes
Accountability has freed
A former Hostage of the queen
A passioned memory
Blood stains from our last kiss
Shattered dreams or so it seemed
If you see her
Tell her my melancholy
Loved her from the start
However if I want to live
The queen and I must part
Goodbye my love
I’ll always cherish our
First
Kiss…
Load another gun
It’s a double edged sword
Survive or die
I just want to fly
She is my only friend
Just rock’n and aching
Again and again
Longing to kiss her
She bites me once more
The hell is constant
I hate the damn whore
She tore me apart
Then nailed me to the floor
She kissed me from my
Head to my arm I adore
Then slammed me again
And again whispering
Sweet nothings to
Fool me once more
She left me for dead
In the still of the night
I hate her I love her
With all of my might
She’s deadly and seductive
So be as it may
I stopped going over
To her den to be played
Goodbye
Blood
Sucking
Harlot
I
Can’t
Or
Ill
Die…

Countless attempts to communicate
Can you hear the sound of love
Standing here anticipating
Can you see the pure white dove
Peace a result of surrender
Hope~do you remember
I am waiting for you to trust
All your sorrows to me
I love you unconditionally
My dear child come home
Set yourself free…

Jake my son you have
Always been so much fun
Anything to help mom
Your motto when you were young
College glows from your face
Your happiness its trace
You’re a blessing
My heart smiles
Knowing you’ve become
A great son with
Your clouded guitar
You outshine
The brightest star

On the other side from a safe place
Where he used to hide
Looking back one last glance
He reluctantly keeps his stride
His life long friend was always his abide
A false courage empty now it lies
What is on the other side…
Fear slips in he longs to return
He knows it’s time to decide
His last train is about to pass him by
He anticipates
Apprehensively
He concludes
It’s good to be alive
What do they mean?

Falling off the face of the earth
Drifting out into space,

Cant say what I really wanted to say…

Can anyone hear
Breathless

You carried me
When I had no legs
You carried me
When I could not see
You carried me
When I refused to hear
You carried me
When I was torn apart
You carried me
When I lost my heart
You carried me
When I went insane
You carried me
When I ran away
You carried me
When I refused to shine
You carried me
Every time…
Will you carry me
One more day
I’m afraid…

A protective shield consumes my soul
As I walk alone I feel a presence
A peace and love a blanket from above
He is the only one that shares my love
The only One I will trust with my heart
We will never be set a-part
For I Love Him with all that I am
He is my Guardian for always
To infinity no end

All hope of having a better past.
Do not look back
Continue to walk forward
Focus on the good and it gets better
Do not focus on the bad or it will get worse
Just keep on the path do not look
To the left nor the right
Focus on the light keep walking
Always do the next right thing
And sing………

Selfishness is giving up
Go ahead hide your stuff
You say, no use for you
Empty without truth
Talents overflow your cup
You say they can suck it up?
They don’t need me
Let them find something else
To set them free
Others do not possess your gift
Trodden souls are dieing
You get my drift…
Darkness takes their hope away
While you do naught another day
Someone’s gonna have to pay
But don’t you worry it’s all good
As long as you have your
Way one more Day
You’re
So
Vain

Up in my sky is a banana moon
I saw it tonight a time after-noon
Numerous times I snapped a few
However my viewfinder
Displayed it true
My Banana is an annoying moon
Or maybe my moon is a banana?
How could I dance to
Such a terrible toon
I cried and threw a horrendous fit
My camera and I
We’ll definitely split
Can’t understand why
My camera likes
Bananas more then I
