Seems
No one is listening
To what I say.
Let it go, let it be
Resting in the knowledge
I am here, I am all
I have to be.

So Long Ago
July 28, 2023
So long ago
I wrote my lines of love for you
So long ago
I lived my life for you
So long ago
I found I didn’t know you
So long ago
I left, left before you left me too
So long ago, so long ago
I loved you.

I Haven’t Got The Answer
May 12, 2023
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.

Once Again
February 21, 2023
Hoping for, not knowing when
I’ll see your sweet face
Once again.
Will it be tomorrow
Or
The day after that?
When I do
I’ll weep, I’ll cry
For
I’ve seen your lovely face
Once again.

Lick Your Wounds
November 28, 2022
Lick your wounds
Forget your ego
Dust that battered self off
While looking
To the future
See what’s best for you
Feel no regrets
Lose no sleep wondering why
What happened
Happened
Don’t go deep inside self-pity
Know this was a message
Sent
To keep you well
Moving forward
Not
Skipping a single
Beat.

You Heard Me Call
September 27, 2022
You heard me call.
You heard me speak.
Whatever happened
that
you didn’t seek?
Help
with all that’s wrong
makes you sad
makes you weep?
No help will come
If
we do not know.
No trouble solved
when
the answer isn’t seen
the question asked.
And
you sit in the midst
of what
you
just don’t know.

When I Hear Your Heart Beat
August 29, 2022
When I hear your heart beat
I know you are near
embracing
me
comforting
supporting
me
When I hear your heart beat.

Need To Find
July 12, 2022
Need to find
So desperately
The source of happiness
All things that give life
Making a life
So divine
May I forget
Miserable
May I need not
Remorse
For I’ve found the beauty and joy
In this life
This
That’s my life
Of course.

I Know I’ve Been Lost
April 5, 2022I know
I’ve been lost
in the wilderness
of
low self esteem
Climbing out
has been hard
rocks, crevasses
unholy shards
pierce my skin, my life
my thoughts
Still I climb
I push, pull and shove
to
a glorious world
full of
grace, courage
and
self-love.

Pull Me To The Centre
January 7, 2022
Pull me to the centre
Stand in front of me
Protect me from whatever comes
Wanting
To inflict harm on me.
