Yesterday was a mixed bag. I wrote about sharing, caring, giving to others. Reaching out with unconditional love to family, friends, strangers, to those in need. As the day went on it became clear that I was on a downward spiral. I had no patience with myself, slow internet, demanding dogs and more so, self-worth. So these are the words that wrote themselves last night as I struggled in the dark and emptied my soul. This morning I’ve decided that I need to replenish myself so I can continue sharing my love. So today you get two for one.

The road to hell
Is paved in stone.
The road to heaven
Is no better alone.
The darkness takes root
Alone with my thoughts
There’s no light left
For which I fought.
The deep dark hole
Pulls me in
There’s nothing more left
For me to give.

Although the well is empty
I’ll continue on my way
Giving first to self
Replenishing all my love.
My journey in life is varied.
It has taken many paths.
I will continue always giving
My unconditional love to all.
