Only I know why
Only you can tell me
So reasons won’t
Become the only thing
I see, I know.
Going past the known
With calmness
Desperately holding on
Caring not
If it’s right
Or
If I belong.
Cause
Only I know
Only me has known
All along.

No one goes
Nor
Do they stay
In
An atmosphere of anger
Or
Decay.
Everyone
Tries their best
Embracing
Joy
Happiness.
I’m no different
I don’t want
To be
Floundering
In
Indifference
Squalor, insecurity.
So
Let’s get together
Let’s join forces
We two – maybe three
Make
A difference.
Create
Heaven
Here on earth
Make it
A
Real majesty.

Known to no one
Known by someone
Living
Guiding my life.
Appreciative of the guidance
Acknowledge my life
Is held
By a gentle spirit
Orchestrating
Orchestrating me
The best
The best life.

Wondering what I’m going to do
Travel back in time
Or make memories all anew
Finding it hard to let go
Of thoughts and judgements
I’ve had, they just stay
They won’t go.
Heart is full, heart is fine
But it must be considerate
Of those along the way I find
Never to berate
Nor say stinging things
Be good, gentle
Moderate everything.

I have found
The world’s round
How profound
Thought it was flat
I’d be falling off the edge
Holding on, grasping
Dangling
That’s what I thought
Then I walked
I walked and walked
Coming back round
To where I found
The start
Never falling off
No, I made it back
Cause the worlds’ round
It isn’t flat
And that is that.

No, I won’t be there
Not sure where
But
Won’t be there
The sun won’t shine
Rivers only wind
And
Trees pine away
But
I won’t see
Cause I won’t be
Won’t be there.

A heart touched
By a loving paw and a wet nose
Is a heart
Forever
Forever full.

My heart does sing
A song so pretty
Blossoms bloom
Grass grows
And
Birds sing
For the song
Sung
Doesn’t weep
but reaches, holds up with strength
All that’s needed
To keep the earth whole
Skies blue
Stars shining
And
Waters running
For they too
Sing
Such a lovely song
Of grace, beauty
And
Sincere gratitude.

I heard your heart beat
I saw your breath breathe
My fingers touched your lips
My hands caressed your feet.
As my soul touched yours
I knew, knew there was
No where else in this world
I need be or rather go.
