Hear the world come to it’s end
Listen to mourning flowers
Sway to and fro
And then
Hear the mighty mountains
Roar their anger
Frustration
To all that’ll listen.
Hear the world plead
Cry
For those lost
In the mayhem.

Do I have something to say
Will anyone listen
Have I gone to the past
That now lasts and ever lasts?
What will I do if the words
I spoke prove to be untrue
Will I cry
Will I speak of why?
Don’t know the answers
To those questions
Illuminating my mind.
Only know
I speak the words
That fill my questioning mind.

Don’t know the reason
Don’t know the why
Still saddened by the outcome
Even if time has so long gone by.
Prayers for those lost
Prayers for those taken
All have paid
Such a unbelievable cost.
Don’t know the reason
Don’t know the why
Saddened by the outcome
All I do is cry, cry.
~ Patrice
My thoughts and prayers are with all victims of 9/11.

Eventually
All will come to an end
Eventually
All the steel girders will bend
Eventually
Every season will thrive and die
Eventually
The answers you sought will make you cry
Eventually
The happiness foretold you won’t deny
Eventually
All will be all you have
Eventually.

If I feel my heart weep
My soul cry
Let me be in a place
Where good ones lie.

The answer came to me
Not in a flash of light
Nor as a wave crashing in the night
That those past lives lived
Come to us in a way
So simple and so straight away
They come in our DNA.
We remember things gone by
And don’t know why
But the reason is
They are in our DNA.
Such as when you think
You’ve been here before
Think again
For you have been
It’s all written in your DNA.
They tell us what we need
What will make us pleased
It’s all there in our DNA.
When you think you’ve been
In this situation once again
It’s most likely true
The blueprints shows us
Thru and thru all that’s written
There in our DNA.
Why we laugh and grin
Why we cry and don’t know why
The answer is in no other place
It’s our saving grace
There within for eons…
