Terrible Are The Times

October 22, 2019

Terrible are the times
Foresaken
In front of me
Married to the anguish
Instilled, harboured
Within my history.

When it is vanquished
Laid to rest
Then and only then
Will living really begin
And loving be
The best.

The Day Is Bright

October 29, 2014

Fall Colours ~ Photo by Patrice

The day is bright
With promise from the night
Fills my heart, my eyes
Which see a future
That’s right and mine
To honour.

Conquer those demons
Who want to take it away
Stay in the light
Let those terrors, worries float away
Vanquished by the brightness
In this, the brightest of bright days.
~ Patrice
