Write
What you need to.
Write
What you feel too
Doesn’t matter if it
Never sees daylight
Only known on pages
Of a book closed tight.
Write
Let it out
Let it be recorded on
The slate that makes you be
What you’ve become
You see.

The help
I need
I fear
is near.
I hope
I pray
it will guide me
thru today from yesterday.
I need
I fear
I hope
I pray.

Thunder clouds fill the sky
I ask myself
The reason
The reason why.

Delicately
I embrace thee
Softly
I caress thee
While with my whole heart
I unconditionally
Love thee.

Hold me close, hold me tight
Let me feel secure
Throughout the darkest night.
Let my tears disappear
Feel safe in a land
Vacant of fury, anger
And awful, awful fear.
Hold me close, hold me tight

Run and jump
leave the pain of not knowing
where you’ve been
and
where you came from.
The answers will be questions
for the ones
coming
after you, after me.
Settle in to knowing
you’ve been, you exist
and
you will in the future be
a cherished memory.

Writing comes easy
It’s the meaning that is hard.

Quietly I lay
waiting for the sky
to take away
all the hurt, pain
I experienced
yesterday
Quietly, quietly I lay.

I hear the song
Feel the vibe
I’m alive
I am alive!
