You don’t know me
I don’t know
myself.
Thru this journey
maybe I’ll find
that one called
myself.
Hoping so
striving
too.
In the
meantime
I’ll keep travelling
travelling thru to
myself.

My Heart Does Weep
September 2, 2026
My heart does
weep
my eyes too
weep
all the world knows
the way.
The way it goes.
Nothing I can do
nothing
I can say
for it is happening
as
was decreed.
Yesterday.

You Held Me Close
August 31, 2026
You held me
close
you told me
all the lies
I wanted to hear.
I held you close
I didn’t want
this moment to end
to
disappear.
Then
you laughed
I cried
Away you went
To this day
I don’t know
what was true
what was
a lie.

Quietly
August 28, 2026
Quietly
I hold you dearly
Singing songs of love
So clearly
Cherished by those that hear
The melody
Quietly
I say words that hold you close
Words of wisdom for love
For
I love you
Oh so much, the most.
Quietly
I walk away
Never looking back
Never saying
Or
Waving goodbye.
Quietly
I disappear from your life
For
You have learned
All that’s needed.
Quietly.

Hold Me So
August 27, 2026
Hold me
so
I don’t feel
that heartache
that
tragedy.
My mind will
go
to a place of peace
if
you’ll only
hold me.
Hold me
so that
not another thought
will make me
cry
but
sing with joy
eternally.
Knowing you are
just
holding me.

My Heart Aches
August 26, 2026
My heart aches
my soul
cries.
Nowhere do I know
the road
to
take.
The life to abide.

Can I Be
August 25, 2026
Can I be
or
can I not be?
Is the question
I ask myself
as
I gently glide
through
to
my destiny.
No one else
knows
the answer.
No one cares
for
you see
they too are working
thru
to
their own
magnificent destiny.

Standing On The Precipice
August 21, 2026
Standing on the precipice
Going forward
Then
Looking back to see
All those who stand
Stand with me.

No More
August 20, 2026
No more
can I say
those words
you want to hear.
No more, no more
will I do
as
you ask.
No more
will I be the one
that
safe place for you.
No more, no more
I say.
But…
Will I do?

Coping, Struggling
August 19, 2026
Coping,
Struggling
with all
that’s before me.
Coping not well
trying to see
all my advantages
all
my discrepancies.
This may not be
me
but it is what
I’m struggling
to overcome.
Just so
I can be me
the me.
I need to be.
