Have You Seen

Have You Seen ~ Photo by Patrice

Have you seen
Have you seen the world passing by
The ground shifting beneath your feet
The sky
The sky radiating a crimson light?

Have you seen
Have you seen this beauty bright?

I Cry, So I Cry

I feel the heaven and the lie
I know the answer I sigh
Nothing is respectful
Nor is it what I need to know
I cry
So I cry.

I see the heaven
I see the ocean’s die
I am part of the earth
Scotched, bleeding dry
That’s why, that’s when
I cry
So I cry

Thru the darkest night.

Will I show you who I am
Will I reveal the face
I know I’ve been?

Will the lines of tomorrow
Be etched
Across my taunt skin?

Will the ones
That happened yesterday
Be still there
In a full or forced grin?

I don’t know the answer
Cause you see
I don’t know who I’ve been.

The Truth

The Truth ~ Photo by Patrice

Is the end the answer
Will the truth be told?

No more to wonder
No need to scold

For the truth is the answer
The truth is what’s told.

Let the night bring peace and joy
Forever and a eternity.

Home Again

Home Again ~ Photo by Patrice

Home again
Home to stay 
Wait til happiness wains 
Then I’ll go away 
To a life of my choosing 
Where I’ll make it
Home 
And then once more
I’ll be home again 
Home to stay.

I Watch You Be

February 8, 2021

I Watch You Be

I watch you be
The very best
You can possibly be.

No ifs ands or buts
All straight forward
All the very best
That heaven gave
You to be.
