Sharing from my many shelves of journals. The mostly biographical poetry and writing of an Australian Christian woman living with schizoaffective disorder.
Alone With Me
Cas Reeves 2004
I love to be alone with me,
I am my best of friends.
I buy myself the greatest gifts,
I know just what I like.
Myself and I have perfect taste
And share sweet sympathies.
Our dreams and hopes are so in tune,
We understand each other.
We’re never bored or overwhelmed
By all we ask the other.
When tired we sleep.
Awake we work,
And study, read and play.
I hope tomorrow I can share
With myself another day.
Most of the time, I do love my own company. My mind invents glorious coping mechanisms. I thank God for my imagination and creativity. There are days when my alters are the best of friends, and this poem celebrates that.
I'm a 46 year old Christian married mother of two young adults who I had the honour of homeschooling for 12 years. My husband Rodney and I live in Brisbane Australia. I am creating this space to share, as God leads, some of my writing and experiences living with schizoaffective disorder and pursuing a deeper healing relationship with God.
