Seems
No one is listening
To what I say.
Let it go, let it be
Resting in the knowledge
I am here, I am all
I have to be.

No One Is Listening

Holding On And Holding Fast
March 16, 2022
Holding on and holding fast
Not letting go.
Til the earth is beneath my feet
The sand whispering in my ear
And wind blowing too and fro.
Then
And only then
Will I let go.

What Have I Done
July 13, 2021
What have I done
and
where will I be
in
a year
decade
century
Will I know
know
the time to let go
to let be
Will these answers
come
in a rush of clarity
or
quietly while I sleep
peacefully.

Holding On, Holding Close
January 14, 2021
Holding on, holding close
All that I love
All that means the most
To me
Throughout.
All that is dear
No more will I let go
To lose, to discard
Oh no!
Hold on, hold close
Today, tonight
Throughout all this
My life.

Today
September 16, 2020
Seething in the mist
Saddened by sorrow
Struggling to say
I don’t know why I let it effect me
Today.
Maybe tomorrow
Maybe later today I’ll feel better
I’ll let it go and celebrate
Everything sweet and beautiful
I experience just
Today.

Begging For The Answer
November 26, 2019
Begging for the answer
Looking for the right
To make my life a difference
Far, far into the brightest day
The darkest night.
No one will answer
Justify or let it go
Me alone will climb
The altar’s steps
Me alone will be the one
To know.

Having A Hard Day
April 16, 2019
Having a hard day
Sleepless last night
Thinking all that angers me
Keeps me up at night.
Not mine to control
Not mine
Yet I struggle
Struggle to let go.
Happiness evades me
Anger, frustration
He said
She did.
Why can’t they see
They’re not right
And I’m in the wrong place
Not where I want to be.

Hidden Thoughts
July 25, 2018
Hidden Thoughts, secret lives
Never brought to the light
Held in darkness, cruel and rude
Fester abscess, no solitude.
Bring forth, let go
Rise the sun, curtains blow
In a wind of purity
pure white as the snow.
Then their secrets, dark and cold
Are exposed, let go
To live in happiness
That only you can ever know.

Sometimes I Let It Go
March 23, 2018
Sometimes I let it go
Sometimes I don’t give it a second thought.
Sometimes I wonder what happened?
What changed your mind and erased your loving heart?
Once I was all you knew
No one else you gave a second thought.
Now indifference clouds the view
Sarcasm is the voice heard a lot
No more gentle caress, no more loving thoughts.
Didn’t happen over night
It seeped in thru empty, shallow thoughts
Taking a awful tole on our gentle, loving hearts.
Sometime turn around look back down your path
See me standing all alone, looking back.
Loving as much as I did then
In the gentle, loving days
Before the empty, shallow thoughts.
