I have no right to feel as black as I do
I have no right to see no light
When birds sing me awake
After a quiet night
I have no right.

Sinking
Give me poetry when I start to drown
Into the abyss of my internal distress
Wrap me in words when rain soaks my
Humor until there is none left
Poetry!
My longing, my heartache, my desire
My loss
Be my water
Cleanse me from head to toe
I need you
No Regrets?

No regrets
Since I took your hand
And lead you close to me
Since I took your hand
And lead you close to me
No regrets
Since I leaned across
And whispered in your ear
No regrets
For every touch
And all falling tears
No regrets
For every word
That echoed thoughts of you
No regrets
For ever loving you
No regrets
If only this were true

Thanks, and happy week ahead 🙂
What Will You Do?
How will you respond
What will you do?
When times they change
And leave you blue
What will you do
Where will you go?
When rains start to fall
Doubt begins to grow
What will you do
What will you say?
When clouds darken
Morning turns to grey
What will you do
What will to say
Where will you go
When troubles –
When troubles
Come your way?
Narrative
I define my own narrative. I am not defined by others thoughts of who I am and what I can do. I will take my own chances and risks. An opportunity will arise. It has to. And it will.
I believe. I have faith. I trust.
Dove
We bear the scars of hopes and
Dreams
When all our nights are filled with
Screams
Filled with love I watched you grow
I have no words as now you go
I wish you well, I wish you peace
I wish that all your pain will cease
Start the music, hear it play
While I fall down in desperate prayer
Farewell my dear, farewell my love
Here she comes, your heavenly
Dove.
In Memory
There were times I loved you
There were times I feared
There were times I knew to quickly
Disappear
There were tears and smiles and hugs
And joy
There were all the gifts you bought to share
You were my dad, the father I knew
And now you are gone, my sorrow is strong
I remember your hugs, your voice and your
Care
I am your daughter, your flesh and your
Song.
To Love
Your eyes pierce the night
Shining lights to lead the way –
I am yours to keep.
Dare To Be
Dare to be happy don’t shy away
Reach out and touch the joy of today
Life is for living, give it a try
Open your heart to that sun in the sky.
Dare to be loving and trusting and true
Treasure the hours with those close to you
Dare to be kind it’s more fun than you know
Give joy to others and watch your own grow.
Dare to admit all your blessings and then
Every day count them all over again
Dare to be happy and don’t be afraid
This is the day God willfully made.
