I know
my heart is broken
I know
life has stood still
I know
I must move forward
I know
my head, my heart, my legs, my feet are standing still
I know
that anguish will be a ever present
I know
that tears will flow
I know
I know
but still
still
I love you so.

You touch me tenderly
I feel your love
No matter what happens
I know I’ll forever be
In forever love.

My heart aches, my soul cries
For the loves
I’ve lost
And
Live no more.
The time came they must depart
Leaving anguish
Loss
In my broken heart.
Someday I know I’ll see again
Those I loved
I lost
They’ll be with me forever
Forever once again.

I’ve heard the sound of the earth
Rocking too and fro
Even thou she doesn’t make a sound
I know the earth is there
I know her heart spins
Round and round
But still
She quietly stands
Stands still for me
I am
On solid ground.

I know you’re there
I’ve felt your sweet breath
upon my face, my hair
your soft voice sweetly calls
from somewhere, somewhere
but I don’t know where
your steps direct my feet
they lead me in a way so discreet
I can’t falter nor wander
you guide me, guide me there
I feel no despair
you are with me where’er I go
I know, I know you’re there.

You know
Some days
I know
and
some days you do.
No one
is intrigued
with not knowing
what to do.
You do your best
you do
you do
what else is there?
I know
and
so
do you too.

Ideas come
sometimes they flow
then
then sometimes
they stop.
The page is blank
not a thought, not anything
just a slate, a page
that’s clear.
Then
then all of a sudden
they flow
in a rushing, gushing river
that overflows.
What a time, a place to be
for it’s then I know
I have ideas that will grow
and grow and grow.

You haven’t seen
nor do you know
the treachery
I can, I will
bestow.
For what reason
frankly
I don’t know.
Bitter
black heart
this
is what I know.
~ Patrice

I know you haven’t been
The best person
ever being
But
I must say
You’re the best
I’ve ever seen.

Feeling, reaching out, holding close
Not sure what this is all about.
Taste the anger, spit it out
Drink deep love, give it to all
All about.
See the sun rise, breathing life
Into a blue, sweet sky.
Experience the night
Enveloping all in a blanket warm and pure
Kept safe til darkness disappears.
I feel this, I reach out, hold close
For I now know what it’s all about.
