Diamonds are a girl’s best friend …or are they?
I stared at my wedding rings emotions spilling over
And felt a fraud.
Marriage died a long time ago
Our vows cast aside in favour of adultery
Never did I break mine
Decisions. Dilemmas. Dichotomy.
Rings were tearfully removed, releasing the past.
I felt naked and lost.
New ring selected with self-love in mind
Giving myself permission to “marry” my future.

In meditative repose
I lie in shavasana, corpse pose.
Breathing quietly in and out through my nose.
Did I feed the cat?
Should I put on the washing before work?
Need to remember to call the dentist.
Oh.. and I need to add milk to the Tesco list.
And so my mind whirs on…
No quiet thoughts to be found
I focus on my breathing…in and out…
Seeking the stillness of the pose.
Need to remember to post that birthday card.
And I’ve to call the garage about the car.
Wonder what time my first meeting is today?
And so my mind whirs on
In meditative repose.
