The Essence Of Me

September 7, 2022
Essence of Me ~ illustration by Patrice

No one can 
or
will be 
the essence of me. 

Me, alone 
is the only one 
I am. 

Pure with faults 
that’s who 
who I am, I can
will be.

Don’t fear the light
Nor the darkness in the dead of night
They will all embrace you
Lead you
With a guiding light.

When I hear your heart beat

Tortured And Sad ~ Illustration by Patrice

Tortured and sad 
struggle to understand 
the world in my world 
beyond the bad. 

See the goodness 
believe and be glad 
for tomorrow 
may be better 
nothing 
tortured nor sad.

Hold me close, hold me tight 
Let me be safe in your arms forever
And
Thru this dark, dark night. 

Let me see the love you give 
Feel your presence holding me 
Hear your words of wisdom 
Evermore 
Forever, into eternity.

Looking out upon the vast history
Of life lived
And made better with dignity.

All is well
And will be the best there is
He saids.

As he reaches down
And kisses me
Upon my undeserving head.

Me

August 3, 2022
Me ~ Illustration by Patrice

After deep soul searching
Searching deep
Within
The depth of
Me

I found

Found I could be
The one
The one and only one
The only one of
Me.
