Away

October 7, 2024
Away ~ Photo by Patrice

I cannot
understand
where the sadness
came from
and
where it hides away.

To
creep out, to consume
when happiness
fades
goes away.

On Our Own

October 3, 2024
On Our Own ~ Photo by Patrice

No more can I be
that one
you need me
to be

I must move on
I must
take care of me

You are on your path
your direction plotted
going
forward on your own 

I’ll see you
I’ll think of you
once more

As we travel
our separate roads
travelling, travelling
on
our own.

Hurt, Feeling Alone

October 1, 2024
Hurt, Feeling Alone ~ Illustration by Patrice

Hurt, feeling alone
struggling to be me
to master
the method, the way
to
happiness
all that I need. 

Not to hurt
not to struggle
but
be happy, carefree. 

If only for today
that 
I would like 
that
I’d love to be.

I Have Heard Your Voice

I Have Heard Your Voice ~ Photo by Wanda

I have heard your voice 
Felt your gentle soul 
Know your touch is 
What I feel 
When soft breezes blow. 

I don’t need to see you 
For I know you’re near 
Holding me close forever 
Forever, my sweet love 
My sweet dear.

Hold Me

September 25, 2024
Hold Me ~ Watercolour by Patrice

Hold me, hold me close
let me be intertwined
with your strength, your beauty
your majesty

No more
no more to need anyone
but you

Let me
feel
your generosity

Let me too
give
all I can to those
needing

Needing me
needing all
that can be given 
can be.

You Tell Me Things

September 23, 2024
You Tell Me Things ~ Watercolour Illustration by Patrice

You come to me
You tell me things
I can’t comprehend
Nor  
Understand. 

It seems those things
Those that you
Tell me
Are beyond
My knowledge, my reasoning 

Nothing
That I know of 
Or
Understand.

No One Seems To Know

No One Seems To Know ~ Photo by Patrice

No one seems to know 
nor do they understand 
the way to heaven 
is always open 
That 
it’s there 
Always 
at their command.

Let Go Of My Heart

September 19, 2024
Let Go Of My Heart ~ Watercolour Illustration by Patrice

Let go of my heart
Let it be safe, warm
Beating
Inside of me

Let it not
Feel any hurt or angry
Only love, tenderness
And
Especially
Happy

Let it
Beat, beat, beat
Let it be.

You Are With Me

September 18, 2024
You Are With Me ~ Photo by Patrice

You are with me
I feel you near
you will be here
til
the angels call you to them

Can you hear? 

I touch your lips, your hand
I see your eyes
they’ve become distant
in their gaze
I’m sure
they don’t see me
standing here 

Lie in peace
lay down with love
for we’ll keep you in our hearts
we’ll keep you near
til our time too has come
Oh my sweet
sweet dear.
