Sharpened Knife

A knife stabbed my heart
And without warning
Twisted and turned
Like a key turning
In a locked door
Threatening to
Unleash a wall
Of pain, I will
Feel the knife
Until it has no
Power over
Me

One Life

Embrace your emotion
In all its agony, pain, and glory
Embrace each feeling
Every battle fought
Every struggle lost
Every victory won
For then you know
That you are alive
You feel
You live

Thorn in my Flesh

Thorn in my side
Wound in my flesh
Testing me

I wrapped myself
In cocoon of love
And breathed

I am stronger
I am growing
I’m alive

Wrapped Up

Your warmth
Wraps me
In love

Kaleidoscope Sky

Blue skies and cloud
Kaleidoscope heavens –
Eternal grace

Breathing Free

Every breath I take
Leads me further
Further from the
Love we made
From stolen
Moments
Shared
From each
Memory
Every breath I take
Leads me closer
Closer to a
Heart set free
Where you
No longer
Have a place
Where you no longer
Inspire the words
From inside of
Me
