Changes come
Changes go
Changing everything we think
We know
Tomorrow will be different
Tomorrow another day
Changing in weather, beliefs
So many ways
Still here we are
In the midst of those changes
Changing our thoughts
Changing
Changing this day.

Ghosts of devils past
Reign
Their leering faces laugh
Shrieking insane
It goes on and on
It seems to last
And
Last and last.
Those devils are just ghosts
Still
They haunt my head, my heart
They make me relive thoughts
I’d rather not
Those ghosts
Those devils of the past.

Heaven help me
Heaven
Let me see
The things I need to do
To make my life
A glorious thing of exquisite beauty
Now
And throughout
Eternity.

Nobody tastes
The sweet nectar of love
And
Wants no more.

In the beginning
And
The end
Life moves forward
Not waiting for
Amen
No one laughs or curses
No one needs to
For
In the beginning
We’re learning
And
At the end
We’ve done all
We need to
We’re
At the end.

Let the healing begin
To heal the sins
That have been done
Against the very core
Of nature’s living
Breathing
Body and soul
Let the healing
Let it begin.

Catch me if you can
I’m falling deep down
That
Hurtful canyon
Hold my hand
Grasp it tight
Don’t like let go
Till all that’s out of sight
Then
Together we will go
You holding me
Me, so grateful.

Can
I be vain?
Laugh
and
show distain
for that
which I don’t appreciate?
Would I be judged
and
found to be a shallow
miserable entity?
Can
I afford to be?

Power my life
To be the best
The best
I can be.
Let no secrets keep me
From being that one
I want
Need to be.
Let joy soar
Singing far above
And
Around my head.
I see what I’m capable of
All I need
All
I want to be.

Terrible things have happened
Terrible things
Terrible things live
Exist.
We must live
Trying
Not to harbour
But
Eliminate
Those terrible things.
Not hear, feel
Allow
Those awful
Awful
Terrible things.
