I sit here and write Of a time gone bye Of a time when laughter Reached Hit the sky.
When smiles Were all you needed To be To be happy and carefree.
But that time has passed That time has gone The world is dark Sorrow Misery all around.
Maybe tomorrow A time will come Full of laughter Happiness All good things to come.
I will live there I will survive I will taste good times They’ll be mine once again Soon and in The sweet bye and bye. ~ Patrice

My heart aches My soul longs for times of joy all long gone.
No more to be no more to say loving words I heard, heard yesterday.
Now has come a time of pain sorrow my heart aches my soul knows there’ll be no tomorrow. ~ Patrice

Sleepy tired
Worry wakes me in the night
Toss turn
Feeling no sleep
As anguish plays on my sleepless stage
In a darkness with no saving light.
Maybe in the morning
All will be clear
A path opening up, a way from here to there
But tonight greeted with only so many questions
Keeping me sleepy tired
In a dim, dark hopeless night.~ Patrice

Let no man see the turmoil Boiling inside of me Let it be something to handle Not take control Of all of me
Joy and gratitude Are the ones I want to see For they will take me On a journey full of happiness Just for me. ~ Patrice

Holding down and very still As the world moves round Round Revolving forever Never still.
Will I fall off Or Hold on Grasping threads Of what’s to come?
Hardly know Just holding on ~ Patrice

Together we’ll be Together we’ll stay For the earth is wondrous Creating love Each And everyday.
Let no man pull us apart Let no one fear nor cry For together we’ll be Forever Far past the day we die.~ Patrice

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.~ Patrice

I know I haven’t been The best you’ve ever seen I’ve tried, I tried But after all the manoeuvring It hasn’t happened It hasn’t come to be.
I haven’t seen my way And settled with The acknowledgement that I’ll be the best of me The best I can The best I’ve ever been Today. ~ Patrice

Feel the anger The pressure baring down Grasp the lighter, redeeming saviour Hold him close Move to higher ground.
Let no one’s hatred, anger find you For you have a buffer, A wall of love all around You are safe No more pressure baring down. ~ Patrice

Nothing to say not in any way All has been said Then left to be Easy to live with or diving down Into pure agony.
Nothing can stop all these Bad thoughts But you can replace them With something pleasant Making your face into a huge smiley.
No, nothing to say Not this morning, this evening Not today. ~ Patrice
