Follow Your Heart

Follow your heart. Take your time
You have a lifetime.

Travel Thru Life

Travel thru life
In a rushing way
Enjoy
Move on
Never stop to employ
Harshness or the madness
Of decay.

Laugh
Cry
Don’t deny
The wonder all around.

Travel at a warp speed
Teeth clenched
And
Eyes about to sneeze
Spreading a happy time
Enough to last a lifetime
For you
And
For me.

• 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.

Lost In The Moment

Lost in the moment
A moment in a life of time
Not all is forever
Forever mine.

Feel the breath of the moment
Feel it ebb and sigh
We are here in the moment
As we quell life’s tide.

Breathe new life in the moment
Let it carry you through
Down to the life of the moment
Down to the moment in a lifetime
That’s you.

Heaven Forbid

Heaven forbid
Tell me what I did
Not in a day
But a lifetime away
Away from all I see.
Help me understand
The stand that must be me.
Don’t measure or pace
Race to the end and feel
Feel the trend which becomes
All I cherish and desire
In a life filled with this desire.

What Are We?

What are we? Where are we going? What will we become?
We search our lifetime for the answers.
And the answer is within us.
Ourselves.
