Wild Irish Fairy Tales

By stealth you come.

To lean on that wall,

In the dark corner of my mind

Where no one sees.

I sense your gaze.

Arrogant, cool eyes, Look upon me through Shadows of my life.

I fight the need to Find those eyes.

To go to you there Standing like stone.

You called to me to Whisper damnation

For passion unrequited, In the dark corner of my heart.

I ache to turn My eyes up to yours.

Finger to lips that  Scorned so fiercely.

I need your hand Resting on my soul.

Words quietly filling the dark Speaking truth alone.

You and I, In darkness stood.

And you sparked the fire

To wickedly burn

Flames that blinded me,

So I could not see

So I could not find

So I could not be,Without you standing, Leaning on that wall

Like cold stone,

In the dark corner of my heart.

Do you ever wish, fervantly, that life had an undo button?

Wow, I do at times.

Unsend, undo, recant, negate…an action, sharp words, a letter, a blog…whatever.

Life does not however. That is why we have to learn from our mistakes or glean some kind of wisdom from them.

Sadly, we don’t always do this. I know I don’t, even if I do try. Sucks, doesn’t it? Smart woman, not so smart actions sometimes….

Fabulous.

Well, at times there are things powerful enough in us, to drive us into action, that wakes us up in the middle of the night to go “Oh, hell. What did I do??”…”What can I do now??”

If there is one thing I have learned, is that I best keep on learning from myself and pay attention to my little fairy voice more than my analytical mind and my romantic heart.

My inner fairy voice is the wise one. My fairy voice better known to some as “Gut Feeling”, while an extremely unattractive word, speaks volumes.

Today will not be a day for wishing for the undo button. There are no takesy backsies. I have learned I need to just stop and listen for a moment….
I have to be a bit more patient when met with lifes lessons.
If I learn one thing, just one…Doesn’t have to be big nor life changing…Just learn a lesson and keep it with me…
Today I just may be a little bit brighter than I was yesterday.

Just a little bit.
