Already heard
the answer
Made my decision
right or wrong
Will believe
in
that answer
Made clear
and
so profound.

The Answer
August 16, 2022
You Hold Me Close
August 15, 2022
You hold me close
I seek
listen to your advice
the world seems small
within my grasp
when I follow
your quiet, beckoning call.
I may accomplish
what needs to be done
I may succeed
not unravel
become undone.
But that depends upon
my hearing your wise words
of
things happened
and
those yet to be heard.

Hold Me Close, Hold Me Tight
August 11, 2022
Hold me close, hold me tight
Let me be safe in your arms forever
And
Thru this dark, dark night.
Let me see the love you give
Feel your presence holding me
Hear your words of wisdom
Evermore
Forever, into eternity.

No More
August 9, 2022
No more
Can no one say.
No more to hear
To see.
No more will be suffice
To carry us through this day
This night.
No more to feel
What wasn’t felt
Yesterday.
No more
Will there be
A difference between us.
No more you, no more me
No more.

Understand
August 8, 2022
Understand
Understand what I should do
Be
What I should be
And
Believe in myself
My being
Being a kind, gentle
Human being.

Looking Out
August 5, 2022
Looking out upon the vast history
Of life lived
And made better with dignity.
All is well
And will be the best there is
He saids.
As he reaches down
And kisses me
Upon my undeserving head.

No One
August 4, 2022
No one
No one goes down the road
I need to go
no one sees the things I see
no
no one does
no one feels
the pain
the shame I can’t conceal
I’m sure
no one does
But up above, surrounding me
is a presence that I know
I feel, I see
holds,
embraces me
Guiding me throughout
this perilous journey
like no one else ever does
no one
no one does.

Me
August 3, 2022
After deep soul searching
Searching deep
Within
The depth of
Me
I found
Found I could be
The one
The one and only one
The only one of
Me.

My Guiding Light
August 2, 2022
In the midst of the darkest night
you are my guiding light
With the bright beam of morning day
you show me my way
You give me life
You save my soul
I feel you
You are
my ever present guiding light.
