With my heart pounding
deep within my breast
the world continues to spin around.
White doves cry
walrus sing
and
fish reach for the sky.
Nothings felt
that hasn’t been
nothings true if we must begin
begin again.

Feeling lonely and alone
Trapped on a treadmill
Going nowhere
Not back home.
Heart is broken
The sky blue
Tears fall
Masked as rain.
Dropped by a hand
Who doesn’t blame
Anyone
For the shape I’m in.
Only suggests
I must stop, turn around
And
Begin again.

Know what I’m doing
Know what I did
Now going to where
I love, I live
All is well
And making life
All
That I need, that I give.

When
The sky is full blue
With light.
The earth warm
From the loving sun
The ocean deep and green
Fish swimming without concerns
It seems.
What a time
What a day
For the sky is full blue
With anticipation and light.

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

Not sure the reason why
The sky cries
Weeps and wails
Crashing thunder
Before my very eyes
Anger, sadness
Blessed love
Not sure
Not sure which is
The reason why.

Angry, hurt are the feelings
Racing thru my head
Why would people be that way
Can’t accept such treatment
In my heart, my head
Seething, feeling angry
But I’ll try to forgive and say
Goodbye to such
That make life an unholy place
No one wants today.

When I find the lost that I knew
I’ll smile
And let my heart
Smile too.
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2020
My heart is heavy, my soul cold
Wherever I wander
I know
The sky will be there
The earth a treasure trove
Of experiences
I will live, I will know
Together
They will pull me out
Out of this deep hole
My heart will lighten
My soul no longer be
A deathly cold.
~ Patrice
@ Patrice Clarkson – 2020
Holding on and very still
breathe light
heart softly beating
and
I will be careful
to
leave the earth
a better place
because
of
me
I promise, I will.
