Days move forward
Gone one by one
Packed with something
But neither overrun
With sadness, happiness
Or blissful dreams
Days move forward
Inspite of all these things.
What you see
May be what you dreamed
Or what you saw
In an unhealthy scene
Don’t deny that it has been
For you can only move pass
When you know it’s been
As days move forward
In the scheme of things.

This is what I say…
“No way
No way can hurt
Hurt me today.”

My life is my own. I alone chart the course, stay the way.
I alone am master of my destiny.
~ Patrice
I saw you together connected by an energy
A wave of endless love.
No words needed to convey, to see your love
Bonded together, radiating an energy
Produced by shared love.
Mother, daughter connected forever
By a word, a feeling, a energy
We simply name love.

When your heart is sore
Your tears won’t dry
Remember
You’re not alone
We hear your cries.
Remember too
All who we’ve said goodbye
Are with us still
Only running now
Where angels fly.

Gone for a day, maybe a week
Whatever it takes to focus, to seek
A gentle mind in this life I’m living.
So you be careful, you be kind
We’ll talk when I’m back
In poetry, in rhyme.

Never known where I belong
Seems to me my whole family
Is just wrong.
Why? Why?
Neither does my love’s
Seem willing to embrace
Me strong.
Why? Why?
I don’t know where I belong
Wherever I go
The same seems to apply.
Why? Why?
Am I from another earth?
Do I belong in a time
Gone by?
Can’t say
Don’t know what’s wrong.
Or should I just understand
The world belongs to those
That accept different as they are
Part of the woven web
Is what we are.
We belong, we belong
I now know where it is I belong.

My life
Is a series of intentional accidents
Given to me by the universe.
~ Patrice
I am not here, I am over there
I am everywhere in my mind.
My soul holds it all together
Here, there and everywhere.

Sitting down
To think of something
Intelligently bright and just right
For the discussion I’m having
With myself tonight.
