No One Sees

July 4, 2024
No One Sees ~ Illustration by Patrice

No one helps
no one sees the world
exactly
like me. 

Sometimes I’m great
sometimes I’m very sad
and
sometimes
sometimes I know
just what’s needed
not
to go mad.

I Try

I try to see
The beauty
In living life with dignity
Not criticizing, making enemies. 

I try you see, I try to be
All that I would want
Helping me. 

Guiding me
Throughout this path of life
I’m on
Alongside you, beside of me.

I try
I try you see.

Morning comes
Then it goes
No one knows where
Where it unfolds.

Melting into day
Hiding thru the night
Breaking once again
In the glorious morning light

Sometimes

June 26, 2024
Sometimes ~ Photo by Patrice

Sometimes life is a thought away
Sometimes you need to say
I’ll do my best
and
then we’ll play
leaving all sad things
for
another day.

Sometimes
that’s my thought for today

I Need Today

I Need Today ~ Photo by Patrice

No one can
tell me
no one can say
the comforting words
I need
need today. 

They are all lost, hidden away
not heard
nor
part of the healing
I’m craving
I’m needing today.

Just Like Me

June 24, 2024

No one writes 
No one sees the world
Exactly
Just like me.

Changes come 
Things disappear
They go
As
I sit here

Wondering
What makes me tick
Why
My life ebbs and flows

All the things
Only
I can know.

When I Hear The Sound Of Your Voice

When I Hear The Sound Of Your Voice ~ Photo by Patrice

When I hear 
The sound of your voice 
Life becomes so dear 
Clouds part, rains stop 
And wrens fly near. 

No one speaks a word 
No one need say 
The feelings felt 
To convey how 
The world is ours 
And 
We have all the love 
We need today.

All Those Things

June 20, 2024
All Those Things ~ Photo by Patrice

No one can tell
no one can
say
all those things
I need to hear
just to get me
through
today.

Heaven help
if
you please
I need
comforting
come be near
holding me.

Changes Need To Be Made

June 19, 2024
Changes Need To Be Made ~ Photo by Patrice

I know changes
Need to be
Made
Things have gotten
Old and staid 

But
Then my mind goes
In
Another way
. . . . 

Old stuff, old ways 
Are
Well known
And
Oh such
A comfortable place
To stay!

No

June 17, 2024
No ~ Illustration by Patrice

No
I won’t be hurt
By what you see or do

No
I won’t try to understand
The method used

No
I won’t believe
My dreams can’t come
true

Because
I know I will have
Everything
I need

This
I’m telling you.
