My heart cringes
my eyes do cry
for
the times of happiness
gone
passed by
I hope
tomorrow shows
some delight
I hope
I’ll find peace
and
rest quietly
tonight.

My Heart Cringes
October 14, 2025
You Call Me
October 8, 2025
You call me
I hear
your voice
the soft lilt
such
a quiet voice
I call back
but
you don’t
hear
you have spoken
I know
you’re near
The line is broken
and
it’s not clear
why
I speak
but
you don’t hear.

You Can Be
October 7, 2025
You can be
somebody
You
can be
everything
All you have to do
is
believe.

Quiet Place
October 6, 2025
Chosen
is
a quiet place
to be
Sitting
oh
so quietly
Tomorrow
I’ll move
Tomorrow
I’ll be
The moving force
that
allows
The quiet place
to be.

I Am A Survivor
October 3, 2025
I am a survivor
I survived hatred, anger
things
that made me a victim
I am a survivor
I came through
growing into someone
who understands how it happened
I am a survivor
Only hurt, remorse for those
who inflicted that hatred
that anger
I am a survivor
Have moved forward
built a life full of love, generosity
no hatred, some anger
I am
I am a survivor.

You
October 2, 2025
I feel
warm and cozy
snuggled up
between the two
of
you
Your heart
is
beating
I feel
that
too
Tomorrow we’ll go
for a walk
just us
We’ll walk together
you, me
and
you
I’ll say the words
I feel
I’ll say those words
that are
true
Then
you’ll smile
you’ll leave me
saying
I love you
You’ll be gone
and
I’ll be missing
missing
you.

Pure And True
October 1, 2025
You hold me close
I feel you do
your heart
beats
pure and true
Together
we can conquer
the universe
I know we can
I know
we will
For our hearts
beat
pure and true.

You Can’t Hear Me
September 29, 2025
You can’t hear me
I know
you can’t
Still I call
I call
and
all of that
Someday you may
someday
we’ll have met
Until
that time
feel free to listen
and
call me back.

Maybe Tomorrow
September 26, 2025
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe
Another day
Maybe it’ll feel like forever
In the way you feel
Today.
But
Your end will come
In a moment
Or
It may have come
Yesterday.
Your purpose, your mission
Is
To live each moment
Each day
With joy and happiness.
So
When you close your eyes
For forever
You’ll smile
And
You’ll say
“That was fun
That was, a good day!”
