Steady as we go
settling me so
gently we flow
rhythmically letting go..
the winds take a change
chaos rules the day and we blow every which way..
nothing stays
Nothing remains
to what avail
What have we gained..
unexplainable, unchangeable,
incredible we..
it’s you, it’s me
It’s what we see
when lost at sea..
undeniably real
sets us still..
our moments untamed
we are beautiful
we are no name..
I found a smile within, sweet season
coming round again..
sometimes you win
sometimes you lose
sometimes the blues settle in..
make a choice
choose..
It’s all been said
it’s all been done
both feet forward until
I’ve won..
In my quiet unbound
I shall remain footloose
While I watch life go round and round
my smile has been found..
Bittersweet you..
painful and pleasant regretful delight..
your aroma soothes my soul
such a pitiful sight..
my heart skips a beat with the aftertaste sweet..
in my haste
I failed to see
the deceit,
the greed,
and the pretense of your need..
I bow out with grace
no hate on my face
leave me be I plead
left alone
to wallow in disgrace..
I harbor no ill will..
for still – be as it may
I will display
Only the good..
my home full of memories
a mixture of sad with a heart full of glad..
an ending that must come – though it leaves me undone..
Hands down
Fists unwound
Heart open
to the sound
You will love what couldn’t be found..
No sense in fighting it –
instead, delight in it..
you’re richer because of it
Stronger in the midst of it..
Your senses thrive on it..
You’ll come to understand things not known
The unknown value unfolds
seeing the imperfect perfectly bold..
between the moments of living and dying
there are moments divine
We are many kinds of beautiful..
watching the sun set one last time
the beauty in the darkness
the hope in the empty
And the warmth in the coldness of goodbyes..
There is a morning after
We won’t have to search anymore..
fascinated how we can become undone
yet remain as one..
The seconds that tick
dissipate unaware
giving way to the day
creating moments that are rare..
unparalleled – unequal-
unique to their own..
not a given but a
gifting
your time like fine wine..
Take it in slow
savor it as it goes..
for if you’re lucky enough to see the value
of the time that entwines you
to those all around you
then you’re free to know
There is no hold
There is no goal
There is no premium on the giving of your soul..
For a moment
For a day
Show me the way..
bring me home to the place I wish to be..
I bleed every time I choose to lose..
my heart has quieted down
no longer wishing to drown..
last fight with my twin
the enemy within
not giving in
victory is my win..
The wrinkles on my soul have made me whole..
I’m strong, I’m weak
I’m right, I’m wrong
I’m all mixed up
But I belong..
Feathers or steel
why not both
They make me real..
