My Heart
One day I won’t let you break my heart again
The pain I’m feeling in my heart
Is heavy, like a ships anchor dragging,
Down to where I cannot breathe
You constantly leave me hanging.
***
Our love takes me to a beautiful place
But then you toss me loose once again,
Toss me back under the water
Where I cannot live with the pain.
***
I will break free of you one day
And then you will know regret,
You’ll be the one drifting helplessly
Me, I’ll leave and forget.
***
You will continue to drift
Out of control,
Until you find yourself
Washed up and cold.
***
I look forward to the day
When you wash up,
On the rocks, broken
I’ll smile and wish you luck.

Tales of the Aurora Borealis
Who knew a solar storm could be so beautiful? Purples, reds, and greens shimmering in our skies like dancing ribbons. Hypnotic and enchanting, the Northern Lights have had us humans in complete awe for centuries. Which got me thinking, what did our ancestors think of the Aurora Borealis?
