No One Sees

October 12, 2022
No One Sees ~ Illustration by Patrice for B.C. Central Credit Union

No one sees
what
I need to see.

No one cares
if it’s good
or
just a necessity. 

It’s left for me to decide 
live with it 
or cast all aside.

Don’t Tell Me

September 29, 2022
Don't tell me ~ Illustration by Patrice

Don’t tell me 
I must be the same
same as you, not me.

Don’t tell me
my beating heart
doesn’t count.

Don’t tell me 
my thoughts are just lies.

Don’t tell me 
the tears I weep will never
bring back ones lost.

Don’t tell me this
I ask of you
I plead, I cry.

The Essence Of Me

September 7, 2022
Essence of Me ~ illustration by Patrice

No one can 
or
will be 
the essence of me. 

Me, alone 
is the only one 
I am. 

Pure with faults 
that’s who 
who I am, I can
will be.

You Haven’t Been The One

August 31, 2022
You Haven't Been The One ~ Illustration by Patrice for the Educational Publisher, Ginn and Company

I know 
you haven’t been
the one
to make a difference
in my life.

That can only be
has to be
my purpose
my only purpose
forever, ever be.

Tortured And Sad

August 17, 2022
Tortured And Sad ~ Illustration by Patrice

Tortured and sad 
struggle to understand 
the world in my world 
beyond the bad. 

See the goodness 
believe and be glad 
for tomorrow 
may be better 
nothing 
tortured nor sad.

Me

August 3, 2022
Me ~ Illustration by Patrice

After deep soul searching
Searching deep
Within
The depth of
Me

I found

Found I could be
The one
The one and only one
The only one of
Me.

My Guiding Light

August 2, 2022
My Guiding Light ~ Watercolour Art by Patrice

In the midst of the darkest night 
you are my guiding light 

With the bright beam of morning day 
you show me my way 

You give me life 

You save my soul 

I feel you 

You are
my ever present guiding light.

Solely Told Her

July 28, 2022
Solely Told Her ~ self-illustration by Patrice

Solely 
told her what 
I think 
no anger, sadness 
did I convey 

Nothing more 
than encouragement 
nothing more 
could 
would I say 

Moving on 
believing 
I made a difference 
in herself 
this hour, this day 

Nothing
more 
nothing else 
did I say.
