When I look out and see magnificence and beauty
I wonder
Why heartbreak has to be.

When I Look Out And See
October 30, 2017
Magnificence Belongs In The Hearts Of Minds
October 27, 2017
Magnificence belongs in the hearts of minds
No longer loitering not defined
Pursue your dreams, be not dismayed
For in your heart your mind will play.

Seasons Come
October 26, 2017
Seasons come they do change
Frosting all way down the lane
No one sees, no one does
Know the answers
Of this unconditional love.

Did You See Me?
October 25, 2017
Did you see me?
Were you able to tell me
All that needs to be said
All that is held close
No heartache, no dread.
Did you see me?
Did you feel my heart skip a beat
My breath intake
When I looked
Looked at all the beauty.
Did you see me?
Will you help me
Climb into the highest sky
Gliding thru heavy laden clouds
Knowing all will be well
Breathing in, breathing out.
Did you see me?

Crazy Mad
October 24, 2017
Sometimes
It makes me mad
Crazy in my thoughts
No hugging
Loving caring thoughts
Just crazy mad
Is all I’ve got.

Let Me Be
October 23, 2017
Let me be alone to wallow
In the sacrifices
I thought I needed to be free
No sudden anger, no hallowed ground
Just loneliness, sadness
These friends I seem to keep
Around.

Imagine Today Is Your Last Day
October 20, 2017
Imagine
Today is your last day.
What would you say?
Where would you go?
What would you see?
Would it be beauty
Or misery?
I don’t know
Can’t see
But hope I’d make it
The best day to last me
An eternity.

Healthy Living
October 19, 2017
Healthy living
Finds a way out
Of the hollow
Where heartache
Plays.
Seeing the crisis
Changing the rules
Making sadness
Nothing
Not used.
This is my journey
My way out of strife
May I succeed
Have
Such a glorious life.

See It Happen

See it happen
Feel it be
Nothing is by accident
Only
Just as it should be.

Gentle And Kind
October 17, 2017
Gentle and kind
My soul holds my mind
Caressing softly.
Gentle and kind
I hear the words I need
So divine.
Gentle and kind
My soul is
My nurturing wine.
