Hold me close, let me go
No more to see the agony
Keeping me all alone
Destitute
Far from where I want to be
Hold me
Hold me then let me go
Trusting I’ll find my way
No matter where the path may lead
Where I need to go.

@Patrice Clarkson – 2023
Loaded down with agony
I push past the entrance
Into hell.
Hope desperately not to dwell
But see the possibility
If I do not undo this awful spell
Stuck down here in my misery
Stuck down here in my hell.
See the light above me
See the stairs lace up from here
Trace the steps back up thru agony
Past the entrance out of here.
Out the gates of Hell into loving
Living memories in a wondrous
Earthly Heaven where there is
No more wretched hell.
Blessed be this living
Please do let me dwell
Here in Heaven
Crushing all sadness
Rising up from awful
Awful hell.
~ Patrice
