A Heart Touched

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

Maybe Tomorrow

Maybe tomorrow 
Maybe
Another day
Maybe it’ll feel like forever
In the way you feel
Today.

But

Your end will come
In a moment
Or
It may have come
Yesterday.

Your purpose, your mission
Is
To live each moment
Each day  
With joy and happiness.

So
When you close your eyes
For forever
You’ll smile
And
You’ll say

“That was fun 
That was, a good day!”

You Haven’t Been The One

I know 
you haven’t been
the one
to make a difference
in my life.

That can only be
has to be
my purpose
my only purpose
forever, ever be.

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.

Hear My Heart Call

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Hear my heart call
Hear that quiet voice
Murmur words of love
Filling all with grace.

Hear my heart call
Words to ease the pain
Sounds made from
A sweet refrain.

Hear my heart call
I’m not alone
Forever with me
In all my journeys.

Hear my heart call
Listen, listen to that sound
Hear my heart
Hear my heart call.

Feeling, Remembering

Feeling, remembering 
seeing
touching things from the past
bringing them 
to the present. 

Projecting then 
to
the future
to be part of my world
forever 
forever to be.

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.

Hold Me Close

Hold me close 
Hold me where I can see 
All the beauty 
Enveloping
You and me. 

Never let me go 
Never let me be 
All alone
Without you close 
Near to me. 

Our hearts beat
Together 
Our lives are intertwined 
Let it be forever 
Forever til

The end of time.

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.

My Heart Aches

My heart aches, my soul cries 
For the loves  
I’ve lost
And 
Live no more. 

The time came they must depart 
Leaving anguish
Loss 
In my broken heart. 

Someday I know I’ll see again 
Those I loved
I lost 
They’ll be with me forever
Forever once again.
