I Seek To Find

I seek
to find
the answer.

The answer
for
all mankind.

It’s not
a small feat
it will take some time.

But then
I have
all
my lifetime.

Once Again

June 3, 2026
Last used June 3/26

Once again

Let me
hear
your voice

Feel
your heart
beating
next
to
me

Your eyes
telling
me
how much
love
you have for me

And
yes, we’ll be together
always

Once again
you and me.

I Don’t Know

I Don't Know ~ Photo by Patrice

I don’t know
I haven’t seen
anything of consequence
nothing that
hasn’t been.

You too
have you seen
anything important
anything
that’s been?

Maybe together
maybe as one
we’ll be able to understand
understand
all that has been
all that
has been done.

You Spoke

You Spoke - Photo by Patrice

You spoke
but
you didn’t say
words of wisdom
nor 
great things 

No, not today 

Makes me wonder
do you know
what it’s all about? 

Or 

Just wording words
you’ve heard
but
never cared
thought about?

Can I help you see? 

Can
you help me be? 

Together
we’ll march
right into history
no casualties
no one left
behind
I’ll grasp your hand
you’ll grasp mine 

That’s all we need
you’ll lead
we’ll be just fine.

You Don’t Know

You Don't Know ~ Photo by Patrice

You don’t know 
and
I can’t tell you
what will happen
in
your life
or
mine. 

We must be
optimistic
we must trust
the heavenly
has us in their hands
guiding us
through
the darkest night. 

I’ll say a prayer
for you
please say one
for me
and
may we come together
joined
in
our destinies.

You Are Not Alone

You are not alone
never think
you are 

Hear the bells toll
they ring
no matter where
you are 

So sing
their song of glory
and
future bright 

Cause all of us
together
will survive 

We’ll love
we’ll pull together
knowing we can
rid the world
of
this terrible blight.

Falling Asleep, Staying Awake

April 13, 2026
Falling Asleep, Staying Awake ~ Photo by Patrice

Falling asleep
staying awake
the same
but
a difference
I can’t contemplate. 

Each night
when
I go to bed
I wonder which one
will be swirling round
in
my head. 

My body must follow
my feet align
for
whatever happens
it’ll start right there
in
my head. 

Falling asleep
or
staring straight ahead.

Fall Between The Cracks

Fall Between The Cracks ~ Photo by Patrice

I fall between the cracks
I stay in limbo
I just keep in a sway
not moving forward
standing still
all day. 

Will it be
the same tomorrow? 

The same as today? 

Will I look ahead
but
never, never
find
my way?
