Hold Me Close, Hold Me Tight

Hold me close, hold me tight 
Let me be safe in your arms forever
And
Thru this dark, dark night. 

Let me see the love you give 
Feel your presence holding me 
Hear your words of wisdom 
Evermore 
Forever, into eternity.

Would You Be Mine?

Would you be mine
til the end of time?

Would you hold me close
taking no notice of how long a time?

Would you love me more than
Julius to Cleopatra or just as much
if not more?

Would the sweet scent of love
fill your nostrils evermore?

Leaving nothing else
to take your breath away?

Cause my love
I will love you forever
Ever, in this way.

My Brother

Miss you still ❤

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

My brother has passed away
Leaving a hole
A void so deep that stays.

No laugh, no hearing his chuckle
No ‘Huh?’ accompanying
His incredulous, questioning smile.

No feeding the brown or the black cat
All memories now
No more, no more of that.

Now my brother, sleep quiet, sleep sweet
Rest now my brother for evermore
In heavenly peace.

You Are The One, The Special One

You are the one, the special one
That makes me catch my breath
Lost for words to express
The love I have
In my beating breast,

No words remain to take me
Any closer to a heaven on earth
As I lie side by side
With my dear sweet love
The only one I do love.

A love I adore, breathe
And live for
You are the one, the special one
My Valentine
I’ll cherish evermore.

I’m Going To Be

I’m going to be here
And over there.

I’m going to be full of brilliance
Nothing more.

I’m going to be forever
Evermore.

Sadness Comes And Goes

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Sadness comes
and goes
Strive to feel
The pain
Then let it go.

No use to dwell
And ponder
Just see it
And let it go.

It makes you
No less
It makes you
No more.

It just makes you
The one to love
For evermore.

I Have Been

I have been
Some other place
Before.

Now I live here
In your heart
For evermore.

• 12 • 12 • 12 •

• 12 • 12 • 12 •
Is just this
A chance
A chance not to miss.

A day
In my lifetime
I’ll see no more.

Powerful
Some will adore
Knowing
It will be no more.

Cherish
Feel it’s strength
As you pass thru
This day
That will be no more.

Trust
This day will carry you
To the next
And on into forever
Evermore.
