Forevermore

I’ll shine a light until I’m home

I’ll shine a light for you

And if you reach the door

Before I do

Please wait for me don’t go

I’ll hurry home I’ll run and fly

I’ll come straight back to you

For you are mine and I am yours

Forevermore so true.

Flotsam

I don’t feel so good

My heart is sore and my soul is

Bruised.

An empathy arises for the child within

I wrap my arms to protect her

Vulnerability

I feel lost

Floating along a turmoiled sea

Reaching for any flotsam passing by.

I am lost.

With only the blue sky to lead the way.

I don’t feel so good.

Sky High

Feel the fear and do it anyway

It’s okay

If you fail or if you fall

Get right up, stand up tall

Learn the lessons

All you can

Learn to fly

And you will soar

Sky high

Out of my Control

It’s out of my hands

There’s nothing I can do

But let myself go and slip

Into the gale force howling

Past my door.

I’ll let it bash me where it

Will.

My eyes are closed.

My hands are open.

It’s out of my control.

Believe

I believe in myself

My talents and my will

I believe in myself

My craft and my skill

I believe in my mind

My heart and my soul

I believe in myself

I can and I will

I won’t let me down

Through the night

Or the dawn

I will draw strength

From the deep endless well

Of courage and my grit

To live the best life

I was born to fulfill.

I Took A Risk

I took a risk and changed my world. I took a risk and stepped outside. I took a risk and all along, it seemed to be my honest prayer. The skies had cleared, the clouds were gone, for one brief time my heart felt strong. But just as soon as all was said, the clouds built up, so grey and dark. They threatened storms, they hung down low, I closed my eyes to make it go. The thunder stormed, the hailstones fell, all peace was gone, replaced by hell. But life is strange, we need the rain, if only to see for once the glorious bow. I took a risk and now it’s done. The door is closed, I must move on. There will be another, a door for me. There will be another, a golden key. So now dear friends, I lay my head, I will sleep for now, to gather strength. For strength I need to see ahead. I need all strength. I must be strong.

Courage and Faith

It’s scary, it sure is. When the rug is pulled from under your feet. I flounder with my flailing arms, grasping for an anchor. Who will catch me, who will care? I throw the question to the air. But this I know and this I trust. I will be lifted to a higher ground. I walked in courage, I walked with faith. And courage and faith will see me right.
