Kindly be
everything to me
let me not
want for anything
except
the things
I need.
Most of all
from you
I need
your love, your kindness
your honesty.
That’s all
I need now
forever
and
maybe
for an eternity.

No one knows
How much I need
They don’t see
My insecurity, my vulnerability
I keep it secret
I keep it close to me
For to expose it
Would only put me more
More in need.

Hearing, listening
for
the knowledge
the answers
I need, I seek
It may be tomorrow
or
the day after that
They’ll come
the knowledge
the answers
will appear
I know
Just like that.

The help
I need
I fear
is near.
I hope
I pray
it will guide me
thru today from yesterday.
I need
I fear
I hope
I pray.

Everyone isn’t the one
I should have been
Accepting that is harder
Then anything has ever been.
Maybe tomorrow it’ll be
What I want, what I need
But that remains
Remains to be seen.

I feel
My hunger thirst
For a heart
That knows no bounds
See a stranger and know
That I am that one
And
May the world
In all it’s whole
Be a wondrous
Place to live.
I feel
I feel I need this.

Busy thinking of
All the things
That must be done
The minutes needed
Time left over
Is next to none.
Busy thinking how
Can I complete all this
Then remember
In this world
In the scheme of things
All will be done.
Busy thinking
It will be accomplished
When its needed
When I need
Just need
All these things.

Seeking solitude, quiet and a resting mind
No bitterness, no crime
No tears smearing a saddened face
Only a smile, a happy thought
A loving gesture
All things caring in this
A quiet time.
That’s what I want, I need
In this
My quiet mind.

I need a coffee
I need a time
When
Heaven and earth
Are in sync
In rhyme.

When I decide
To see, to be
The compassionate being
I need to be
My heart, my soul will grow
Flourish
In this life
I’ve come to know.
