I am Free

Closing, closing, closing...

So trapped it's like i'm losing.

Rising, rising, rising....

The voices inside crying.

Trying, trying, trying...

To keep my heart from dying.

Forgive and then forget.

Love with no regrets...

Flying, flying, flying...

With You now, I am Free.

You Are...(dedicated to my Grandma Merle for her Birthday)

Your eyes...Carry a warmth of love.

Your smile...Lights up a room just cause

Your words…Salvation from all the pain

And you are...you are…

Your heart...Capacity overrides

Your touch...A feeling I can't describe

Your voice...A melody that’s complete

You are...you are…

You're there, you're here, you're everywhere, you're with me today

You're near, you linger by my side, you stay just the same

You are, you are….

You never boast, you never bother, never berate.

You never walk away and leave me feeling ashamed.

You are, the perfect love to me.

Your eyes, your smile, your words, your heart

Your touch, your voice, you are...you are.

You’re the apple of my eye…

My grandma by my side

Flame of Hope

Last vestiges of bitterness melting from my core
A meager flame, flickering, dancing towards new hope
How many ways to wave the flag that takes us to the door
How many times the change of heart that teaches us to cope.

You're with me now, you soothe and heal
You calm the fears at night.
Don't leave me now, don't let me feel
Just wrap your arms 'round tight.

The First Supper

Standing in the kitchen, everything in sight
Looking at the receipe, food strewn left and right
So many mouths to feed, and now it's up to me
I cannot stop. OUCH! the soup is hot! Are those the guests I see?!

I must not lose sight of my goal, I must not show defeat
I must make haste, I must not waste, my hungry guests must eat!
Growing distressed, hands at unrest, I feel the walls cave in
Should I give up? Should I get out? Should I simply give in?!

A gentle hand upon my back, a deep voice reassures
"My Child be still, don't try to keep an order you can't fill.
Just take your time, one dish is fine, the rest can be combined--
For a later time, without deadline, what's done shall be divine!"

And He was right, 'twas a splendid night, the guests ate every bite.

Lost

Pieces of memories scattered in my mind

Faces and places, blurry undefined

Thoughts running freely, not seeing clearly

And now I'm standing here, our future in the air.

You are here, I'm not all there.

Welcome!
