You Don’t Know What I Know

May 6, 2014

Giraffe ~ Stipple art by Patrice

You don’t know what I know

You don’t feel what I feel

You don’t see what I see

You can’t hear what I hear

Because

You are not and never will be me.

Dear Lord, My God

Dear Lord, my God
Let me be
Part of a world that is happy.

Dear Lord, my God
Let me see
Things of beauty in all I perceive.

Dear Lord, my God
Let me hear
The words of my soul
Let them guide me where I need to go.

Dear Lord, my God
Let me feel
The spirit that lives inside of me.

Dear Lord, my God
My Spirit, my Soul
I need your guidance
Your knowledge, your company
Here by me, where’re I go.

Seek The Answer

Seek the answer

Letting it envelop you
In a place
Warm and sweet

Close your eyes
See
Exactly what you need

Spread out your fingers
Feel
And touch the answer

The answer that you seek

Long Shadows Crease The Grass

Long shadows crease the grass
Modifying bark on a watching tree
As sunlight fights
With the night all day long
Winning only in the morning bright.

Sleep at night
Feel the shadows
Creeping across the grass
Rising up
Holding darkness in it’s grasp.

Your heart is safe
Shadows will see to that.

Feel Myself Spiralling Down

January 30, 2014

Perfect Little House ~ Photo by Patrice

Feel myself spiralling down
Feel the sadness all around.

Morose behaviour I have found
Doesn’t let me feel a better way
Just seems I am bound
To trudge alone, spiralling down.

But maybe

Come to terms with who I am
No more sacrifice
Know the person that I know
I know I am.

Deep In A Wretched Chasm Of Despair

October 18, 2013

Deep in a wretched chasm of despair
Struggling, struggling to get out
Out of there
Fallen down a well of no repair
Intimidating, dark down there.

Feel the walls
Feel their strength
They’ll help you climb back up
Into a life of freedom
Happiness, no despair.

Don’t dwell way down
Way down there
In that chasm, that well
Filled with hell
Way down there.

Bring yourself up, out
Feel the rays spreading out
Warming, bringing joy
Happiness all about
No pain.

No heartache there about
As we bask in the warmth
Of the sun, knowing
We’ll never fall back down
into that dark chasm
We’ll never, ever fall
ever at all.

Smile And Laugh

November 20, 2012

Smile and laugh.
See the world as a beautiful place to be.
See joy and beauty.
Caress the love you feel and that envelops your soul.

To Cry Is Human

October 5, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To cry is human.
It shows you care.

To laugh is human.
It shows you have joy.

To anger is human.
It shows you feel.

To remember is human.
It shows you have been.

To die is human.
It shows you have lived.
