Solely Heard, Solely Said

January 22, 2024

Solely heard, solely said
Those words
That
Were racing
Racing around my head.

Are they good?
Are they bad? 

Answers in between 

Something I’ve seen 
But
Never had.

The World Spins

The World Spins ~ Photo by Patrice

The world spins
revolves around
taking lives on a journey
the world beyond.

Grass grows, birds fly
rain drops
and sometimes
lovers must say goodbye.

The world is ours
We make it what we can
happy or sad, we live our lives
as the world revolves round
once again.

Make Me Be

January 18, 2024
Make Me Be ~ Photo by Patrice

Make me be the one
That sees joy, laughter
In all that comes near 
Before me.

Let me
Not
See the tyrant’s anger
The anguish of the beseeched
Who need.

No, make me
A place of quietness
Filled with pleasantries
For all that
Come to me, that I meet.

Could It Be?

Could It Be? ~ Photo by Patrice

Could it be?
Could it be that I can do
Whatever I need to 
To be the one I want 
Can be?

The answer
Is in my heart beating 
Waiting for me to ask  
To see
The path I need to take
To be
Be the best at what I want
What I can be.

I Don’t Know

I Don't Know ~ Photo by Patrice

I don’t know
What’s best for me
I only know
What is given
What I feel 
I see. 

Tomorrow I may know
I may climb to the heights
Stand
On solid rock
Caress
The clouds  
Feel the snow. 

But
For now
I don’t know.

Hold Your Horses

Hold your horses 
Be at peace 
Let the world pass by 
One hour at a time 
No rush 
No strong words 
Do you speak.

It Hasn’t Been

January 11, 2024
It Hasn't Been ~ Illustration by Patrice

It hasn’t been
The easiest thing 

It hasn’t been 

Toil, stress  
Heartache and distress
What a mess 

Easy
It hasn’t been 

Tomorrow, next week
Maybe
Next year 

Things will be
Easy
Simple and clear 

But 

Today
Today, it hasn’t been.

All We See, Touch And Feel

January 10, 2024
All We See, Touch And Feel ~ Photo by Patrice

You can see 
I can feel
The presence of love
In
The earth, the sky 
All that we see 
Touch and feel.

No more is needed
No more
Will be revealed
For this is all
We need
All we see, touch and feel.

Tired, Feeling Stressed

January 9, 2024
Tired, Feeling Stressed ~ Photo by Patrice

Tired
Feeling stressed
Will the pleasantries
Ever come back
Be expressed? 

Questions asked
Thoughts
Conveyed

Still
I stand here
With
Quietness, calmness
They seem to evade.

Let Me Hold You Close

Let Me Hold You Close ~ Photo by Patrice

Let me
Hold you close

Let my breath and yours
Intertwine 

Let no one
Keep us apart 

Together we’ll travel 
Follow
Our hearts

Never alone 
Never
Be apart. 
~ Patrice
