Believe in yourself, believe today
Believing is the only way.

Seeing Is Believing

Seeing is believing 
Believing is knowing
You are safe 
In the arms of another 
Going forward into the day 
Joyous and alive.

Follow Your Heart

I haven’t seen nor do I know 
the answers to what you need 
you think I know. 

You must follow your heart 
feel it’s rhythm beating 
let it show you where to go 
the path to take 
believing. 

For its been the only thing 
that’s been there
since your existence
your beginning.

I Should Not Believe

I know
I should not believe 
That all is well 
That’s just make believe 

Time has come
To stand still 
Feel the earth move 
See reality 

Ugly, beauty 
All of it understood 
Accepting, unconditionally 

Still believing 
In the grace of God 
Forever 
I will believe.

Love

Feeling the movement 
feeling
the love

Moved to emotion 
blanketed
in love 

Vowed to protect 
forever
with love .

Maybe tomorrow 
I’ll see more to be done
thinking, believing
in love.

Hearing The Words Spoken

Hearing the words spoken
In love and respect
Makes my heart leap and regret
All the things that I’ve said.

Not believing the actions
The smiles
The love I did get.

Now
I know there was nothing pretend
All was truthful, out in the open
Love with no end.

I will embrace all that I have
Give back, be happy
Never again be sad.

For this that you’ve given me
I will embrace, love you forever
Knowing
It’s our chosen place.

Hearing The Reason

Hearing the reason
With no understanding
Why.

Going forward
Believing
I’ll know the answer
In the sweet bye and bye.

Today Is A Sad Day For Me

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Today is a sad day for me
Today was the day I knew in my heart
My mom was dying.

Nothing, nothing I could do
Or say would stop it
This I knew in my heart
But not my head.

Anguish, fear, frightened
Looking for the answer
That would save her
Keep her here with me
Sadly, not to be.

Not once did I think
That maybe she had had enough
And wished to go
Oh no.

When I look back on this day
I see it was all about me
My feelings, my hurt
My need to have her here with me.

I said Goodbye that day
While deep inside, my heart knew
My head refused
Believing we’d have more, more happy days.

That inner voice, my heart
It knew
It knows the future and has lived the past.

She passed
She passed the next day
My mom, she…

Sorted, Scared

Sorted, scared
Wondering just what happened.

Foggy, blurred
Can’t conceive what I heard.

Mastering, believing
Seeing there is a way.

Still, can’t function
Can’t believe this day.
