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?

Can I?
June 3, 2024
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.

Feeling Peaceful
May 28, 2024
Feeling peaceful
Feeling calm
The sun
Has come up
It has shone
Lighting all the world
Showing the way
To
Happiness, joy
Everything needed
To complete
This
One and only day.

The Time
May 27, 2024
Take me to the time
Life was great
All
Sublime.
Let me feel
The warm rays of love
Penetrating
Crises
Soothing heartache
Forever
For all time.
Show me how
I can give
Just like
In
That wondrous time.

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.

Protect Me
May 23, 2024
Protect me
From
Myself and others
Who think
They know me
Don’t let them
Be
So condescending
Trying
To control me.
Protect me
From
My disparaging thoughts
My history
Let me
Be
A better person
A happy
Pleasant person
With you
Protecting
Me.

I Will Love
May 22, 2024
Totally Feel My Heart Beat
May 21, 2024
Totally
Feel my heart beat
Sometimes
In excitement
Totally
Skip a beat.
The thump, thump
Thump
Goes on for my eternity
Stopping only
As
I cease, cease to be.
That’s the end of me
My eternity
No longer will I feel
Feel
My heartbeat.

I Am Here
May 17, 2024
I am here and you can’t see me
I’m hiding
Hiding in normalcy

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 ❤️💞❤️
