Sadness comes
and goes
Strive to feel
The pain
Then let it go.
No use to dwell
And ponder
Just see it
And let it go.
It makes you
No less
It makes you
No more.
It just makes you
The one to love
For evermore.

Heaven helps those that need
No asking, just need
If you look, if you care
Those you need will be there.
Heaven helps, heaven cares
Feel it round, feel it near
Know it’s always
Always here..

You know the answer
You know what’s sane
You know no one can make
Your life full of pain
The only one who can
Is living there in you
And you must make sure
No one lets it happen
No one
Not even you.

To cry is human.
It shows you care.
To laugh is human.
It shows you have joy.
To anger is human.
It shows you feel.
To remember is human.
It shows you have been.
To die is human.
It shows you have lived.

On the hilltop
In the horizon
Cradled
By the blue filled sky
I’ll know
The answer
I’ll know
The reason why.

I am not a failure
I am me
I am not a success
I am me
I am not another
I am me
I am me.

When the answer does arise
May I be ready, not surprised
May I act upon
The words filtering thru
My head to my heart
Unperturbed.
No one else will hear
That sound meant for me
But I must recall
All the times leading up to this
Not forcing me, just acting on
The answer resting on my lips.

With the meeting of my mind
Seeing
Feeling all
That can be kind.
Acting on the narrow line
Lost
Between ridiculous
And the most kind.
No one has to tell
The outcome
Or
The story well.
Just be there
In the moment
Give
Offer kindness well.

Figure it out one step at a time
Walk with pride
Sidestep
Even if you have to duck and hide
No matter the reason the answer is there
Its up to you to find out where.

To live in turmoil is to not exist. ~ Patrice
