What I think
And
What I tell
Big difference
I’m sure
You as well.
Somethings are meant
To be left in the dark
Not spoken of
Not given a chance
To step out
And
Stomp on
A frail, fragile heart

For all I know
It could be not a thing
In a abyss of something.
For all I know
I’m not here.
For all I know
This is a dream
I’ve dreamt before.
But who keeps score
No one
For all I know.

I go to write
Listening for the words to form
Pictured in my mind they come
They take their form
On the page they rest
Now said, now wrote.
I thank the presence
That brought them to my mind
Formed the thoughts to convey
And then
Without another word
Quietly slipped away.

You have the expertise
The knowledge to succeed
Just follow your heart
The small voice
Speaking.
She will tell you the way to go
The right, the wrong
All things
You think
You don’t know.
She’s called
An angel
A guardian angel
Living, breathing
Just
To help you.
Listen
And
You’ll hear
All you need
Need to know.

I haven’t got the answer
Don’t know what is the fight
But standing, hands on hips
Feet planted on the ground
Ready to fight and stand
Stand my ground.
Fight for
What I know is good
And what I know is right
Guess that’s my answer
Guess that’s my fight.
