“Return To Me” (Song)

By Athena Stairs, August 10, 2023

On those restless nights when my heart’s in plight
And I’m balled up tight ’til the early light
Have to believe you’re more than just a dream

In the candle light by the fyre’s height
When the world’s a-light and I need what’s right
Have to believe you’re also wanting me

We don’t have to search anymore honey
You can find your redemption with me
When that blue bird came to my window
I learned that the truth can set us free

Come confide in me – let your heart be seen
We’ll create a life with our souls washed clean
Darling it’s true I know we’re meant to be

It’ll be alright we can win our fight
We can beat the dark – turn it into light
By love’s sweet grace this will be our destiny

Blue Without You (Song)

By Athena Stairs, August 8, 2023

Now that the time has gone
Where we could sing along

A moment here or there
Cannot seem to compare

The sparks of happiness
For potential manifest

I once felt when thought
Of such joy love bought

Now that the rains will come
Once heat of summer’s done

When I would turn to you
Nothing’s left for me to do

I once found a place for us
That was built on a rock of trust

But when you turned away
I was left with nothing to say

How I wish there was more we could share
But I’ve turned and looked everywhere

When someone admired astrays
There’s only night left to the days

So I make the best that I can
Of what’s left that I understand

But I can’t seem to replace
Precious smiles or hope of embrace

I can’t seem to understand
Why a lover gone once a friend

Can change his mind like a switch
Throwing what is rare in a ditch

Maybe I’m just built as of old
Unlike now where most do what’s told

Its a state of confusion confessed
When facing the void of a mess

There’s no one to ask it seems
How to reclaim once broken dreams

No one wants to work and repair
What is broken and then laid bare

It’s a sad turn of such events
When once born I’m sure we’re meant

To achieve a higher plane
Rather than indulge what’s insane

Poetic Musings

The Running Roundabout

For any new venture, there seems to be a large outpouring investment of time and energy toward searching for and coordinating appropriate data for triangulating entry and procedure initiations – which I find quite vexing  because it seems like acquiring a well-rounded picture on what to expect should be easier.

Perhaps it is that I prefer to be very thorough in my prior investigations so that I can tell ahead of time if I am choosing the right directions when pursuing goals from start to completion – and if the results will yield desired benefits.

A New Frontier

Just a little bit of sliding suction cupping on my leg fascia combined with Rocking Compression where bound began loosening fibers to where expansion stretching is responding again along prior surface adhesions.

Further application treatments should allow me to ultimately restore slide and glide responsiveness of my muscles against bones and each other, as well.

I have found another tool to add to my therapy!
