I sit here
wondering
delving deep inside
to
feel words
I need
to give and convey
love
gentleness
to all
that live in this
crazy
crazy world
today.

Here Wondering
November 20, 2024
Today, Tonight
November 18, 2024
Holding on, gripping tight
wondering what could
come to be
Today, tonight?
I see
the course
I see the path
but what
is
expected of me
Today, tonight?

Everything
November 11, 2024
Where I’ve been
what I’ve seen
is
nothing
compared to you.
It does not
raise the temperature
it doesn’t make
the news.
But it’s
where I’ve been
it’s
what I’ve seen
it’s everything.
Everything
that makes me
me
not you.

Stories Told
November 1, 2024
Stories told
Are the stories
I tell.
Are they true
Or did I just say words
That make the story
Told well?
Secrets revealed
Bad parts left out
Who knows
How can you tell?
Embellished or truthful
Telling a tale
To remember.
Not because
It’s told correctly
But told well.

Heaven Knows But Doesn’t Tell
October 29, 2024
Heaven knows
but
doesn’t tell
secrets
from the universe
nor
the past
as well.
Maybe it’s for the best
maybe then
we’ll forge ahead
bask
in the brightness
of those things
that
she does speak of
those things she tells
so well.

Can I
October 24, 2024
Can I
feel, see
the end coming
or
what was
my beginning?
Can I
live in reality
being happy
or just
whining, complaining
full of misery?
No answers come
Cause
I’ve already made
the decision
to live my life
as
best I can
can be.

Slowly I Head For The Open Gate
October 17, 2024
Slowly
I head for the open gate
the door is
open
I must not wait.
Time will come
I’ll be gone
then
someone else
will guide you thru
that
open gate.
Safe, secure
you will follow me
into
what becomes
our true destiny.

Needed
October 15, 2024
No more can I be
someone needing you
or
all those things
I’ve been
you thought I was
I needed
I wanted to be.
Now
I’ll change
I’ll stand on my own
I’ll be
I’ll say those things
that must be said
so
needed to be true.

Away
October 7, 2024
I cannot
understand
where the sadness
came from
and
where it hides away.
To
creep out, to consume
when happiness
fades
goes away.

No One Seems To Know
September 20, 2024
No one seems to know
nor do they understand
the way to heaven
is always open
That
it’s there
Always
at their command.
