What are we? Where are we going? What will we become?
We search our lifetime for the answers.
And the answer is within us.
Ourselves.

What Are We?
December 2, 2011
I Am Powerful
December 1, 2011I am powerful
I am strong
What I do
Cannot be wrong.
I am beautiful
I am strong
In this you’ll see
I will be me.

Snow Comes Down
November 30, 2011
Snow comes down
Gently falling, falling down
Coating, covering all that’s brown
Falling gently, falling
Falling to the ground.
Soft and gentle falling,
Landing on bright whiskered fur
Briefly there to stay
Til ladened branch whisks away
Down upon dark brown ground.
Gently falling, falling
All the way to the ground
Falling snow gently falling
Falling on the ground.

Free And Open Space
November 29, 2011Free and open space.
That’s what I need.
Feel the wind on my face
In a free and open space.
All distractions, lots of action
In this free and open space .
Inhale the air
Feel the coolness in the breeze
In a open, a free and open space
Somewhere that I need.
Charge my senses on a cool and gentle breeze
A open space, a free and open space
Full of grace
A place where I can be.

This Is Special
November 28, 2011This is special because I make it so
Turn around, look around
Make it special because I need it so.
No one else has the power
To make it special
Only me, so make it so
All your life you’ve had the right
To choose to make it special
And you should do so.
This is yours, this is mine
Make it special. I’ll make it special
This special time.
Why?
Because he told us so
In a special time.

Brushed Beside Me
November 27, 2011Brushed beside me, felt your breath
Shudders running up from deep, dark depths
Dim black places no one should accept
Brushed beside me, felt your breath.
Brushed beside me, felt your breath
Down beneath me, down the depths
Sadden figure reaching out
Brushed beside me, felt your breath.

Trying To Hold It All Together
November 25, 2011
Trying to hold it all together
Make it better
The best I can.
Some days I can
Some I can’t.
Hold it
Hold it all together
Make it better, the best I can
With all my love.

A Bright Star Fades
November 22, 2011A bright star fades, gone from view
High in my sky, gone to dim
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
When a bright star fades far from view
Makes me cry, makes me sad
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
Lost love on earth, gone to dim
When a bright star fades, gone from view
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
That warm love gone, gone to dim
When a bright star fades, fades from view
Don’t know why, don’t know when.
