No one else
no one will be just the same
cause as you may know
or can see
we’re all unique
never not the same
not the same as
you and me.

No One Else

Take Hold Of Me
October 24, 2022
Take hold of me
And please hold tight
Protect, guide me
Through the darkest night
Let no harm come to me
Or those I love
This I ask, I ask of you
My sweet love.

Don’t Know
October 18, 2022
Don’t know
where I’ve been
or
what I’ve done.
The truth
is
I believe
my life, my journey
has
just begun.

Hold Me Close
October 17, 2022
Hold me close, hold me tight
help me understand
the goings on that happened
have changed
my life.
Let no word be spoken
in anger nor strife
let love begin to heal
the hurt, the pain in this
my only life.

No One Sees
October 12, 2022
No one sees
what
I need to see.
No one cares
if it’s good
or
just a necessity.
It’s left for me to decide
live with it
or cast all aside.

Holding Out, Holding Close
October 6, 2022
Holding out, holding close
Thoughts of yesteryear
Knowing they arrived
Played out
And
Now have disappeared.
Reasons why, reasons known
I can’t decipher
I can’t cry out
All I know
they happened
They’re with me now
Till I leave this earth, till I too
Am no longer here.

I Remember
October 5, 2022
I remember
when my heart was full
my eyes didn’t cry
my soul
my soul could go
anywhere and never die
I remember
I remember then.

The Light
October 3, 2022
There before me stands
the light
The one that’ll be
my guiding light
to a world
I know exists
Where I’ll be
oblivious to heartache
melancholy thoughts
and pain.
Plus, other things
I can’t explain.
See me drench
myself in this light
Feel its warmth, beauty
and
unsurpassed delight.

Don’t Tell Me
September 29, 2022
Don’t tell me
I must be the same
same as you, not me.
Don’t tell me
my beating heart
doesn’t count.
Don’t tell me
my thoughts are just lies.
Don’t tell me
the tears I weep will never
bring back ones lost.
Don’t tell me this
I ask of you
I plead, I cry.

Can I Be Vain
September 28, 2022
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?
