I don’t like
the one I’ve become
I want to be
that
other one
The one that laughs
sees the light
holds close
evening’s delight
Let me be, let me see
that person
I was
I wish once more
to be.

I Must Accept
June 13, 2024
This is when
I must
Accept those
Giving
Unconditional love
And
Anyone
That only means harm
Let them go away
To find
How
They can change
Their hurt
Into loving others
Each
And
Every day.

I Hear The Engine Roar
June 10, 2024
I hear
the engine roar
the smoke billow
and
fly high
up into the air
high
up to the sky
I see people laughing
cordially
taking steps to be
in the midst
of
everything
I feel excitement
racing
round the curves
down
the track
in
anticipation
of
who’s to win
The first
to cross the finish line
the one I know
all
will celebrate and cheer
The one
who’s
the winner.
That’s what I do hear.

All Alone
June 5, 2024
Lonely can I be
Wondering
Where everyone could have gone
Leaving me
All alone
Lonely can be
Heartbreak
Broken heart sobbing
Into silence
All alone
Waiting
For a saviour to bring love
Togetherness
To sip the sweet nectar
Of belonging
Not
Not
All alone.

Can I?
June 3, 2024
Can I be
Someone who
Loves
Takes care of all things
Dear to me?
Can I?
Can I be
This kind person
I want to be?
Or
Will the whole thing
Escape, bypass this
Wondering Can I person
That’s me?

More
May 30, 2024
When I hear
Your heart beat
I want more
More time to love you
More laughs
And
So much more
Don’t go away
Don’t be gone
Forever
Stay with me
Stay
Here forever
Forever more.

No More
May 29, 2024
No more can I say
Love
Will triumph today
No more
No more will I do
The things that make
You love me too
No more
No more can I be
The one
You want me to be
No more
No more will I stand
Close by loving thee
No more
No more.

In The Distant Past
May 24, 2024
I have lived before
I have lived a life
In the distant past
Good or bad I had
A life before memories
Faded
In the distant past
They didn’t last
As new ones evolved
Different but built on
That life lived
In the distant past.

You Walked
May 16, 2024You walked a mile
You walked to town to buy groceries
You walked for fun
And
I think to clear your head
Of
Things not necessary.
Your quiet way, your giggle
Your wave
As you walked
In the middle of the road
I miss these
I miss
Everything
About you already
But
Most of all
I miss you.
There’s a chair for you
To rest on
As you walk
This last walk, this journey
You’re now taking.
Please, when you get there
Let us know
You made it safely
That
You’re resting nicely
You’re laughing
With your old friends
You made it there.
Walk carefully, walk gently
Sweet Patsy
We miss you
But
We know you now walk
Freely
With not a care.
~ Patrice
Rest in Peace Patsy ❤️💞❤️

Tomorrow Comes
May 9, 2024
Tomorrow comes
Then
It ends
Taking place in today
Passing
Through to the past
Ending in history
To be
Retold once again.
