There have been
regrets
in
my life
things
I’d rather
not
dwell on
Live twice
To find
joy
in those times
is
hard to accept
hard
to find
This is why
I acknowledge
they
happened
maybe cry
then
let them go
But did they
help me change
help me
grow?
You know
I just don’t
know.

The goodness in the bad
sometimes
is
hard to find
Keep looking
for it will
be
most divine.

When I hear your heart beat
I know you are near
embracing
me
comforting
supporting
me
When I hear your heart beat.

Let me see
what
could be
Let me see
what
was
In
between
I live
Being
the best
I can
Living, giving
all
my love.

You hear me
call
you see me be
but yet
together
we’ll never
be
Our heart’s love
won’t last
hands will shake
forsake
all that
could have been
but
didn’t last
Please hear
in
your heart
my voice saying
Adieu
we must
go
our separate ways
be
forever
forever apart.
~ Patrice

Hold them close
and
very tight
Feel your breath
breathe love
in the morning light
Let no soul travel
the path taken
all alone
No, never
never alone.

How can you
see
what’s near
dear
to me?
Standing
way off
talking to someone
that’s not
me
How can you
how can you
see?
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2025
You
couldn’t be
what I needed
you
to be
No
you were not
But
was I what
you craved
asked me
to be?
I think not
Because
I
too
couldn’t be.
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2025
I saw
you
falling down
I saw
rocks slip
crashing
all around
No sound
could
I hear
no breath intake
no cries
for
God’s sake
Only
falling
falling down.
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2025
I hear you call
I do
I hear your voice
in
that
so sincere way
Say
the words
I want to hear
help me
thru
not only this day
I hear your call
you’re here
with
me
Nothing
gets better
we’re together
just
you and me.
~ Patrice.
