When I Heard You Calling Me

Wishing all Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas! 😀

When I heard you
Calling me
My heart stopped
It skipped a beat.

Tell me why
I can be alone
Lost without you
Near me.

You make me whole
A life to love
With arms wrapped
Around my soul.

Your heart, my heart
Filled with love
Together always
In everlasting love.

I Remember

I remember
when my heart was full 
my eyes didn’t cry 
my soul 
my soul could go 
anywhere and never die 

I remember
I remember then.

Solely Knowing

Solely knowing the past, present 
and the distant future
are one. 

They are my life, my breath 
and
my soul. 

Let it be good 
let it leave a lasting impression 
on those that know. 

This life I’m living 
this life 
this, the only one I’ll ever know.

Once Again, Once More

I feel the heartache
I feel sadness in my soul
Lost and left
I watch
Those trying to climb out
Of deep depression
Once again, once more.

In tomorrow
Will the sun shine again
Will the streets flow with laughter
Will things
Be ever right
Once again, once more?

When I Was Lost

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

When I was lost, nowhere to go
She was there
This I know.

Holding still
Sitting quietly next to me
Not on a chair
But a presence
I could feel, I could not see.

Quietly she spoke
Her hand reaching out
Caressing my spirit, my soul
This being called
Me.

She told of things
That would be
She told me I would succeed
She told me, she told me
Everything.

Her voice so calm
Her touch so light
Her presence it could light
The darkest night.

An angel perhaps
A passing soul, who knows
But by my side
She lived, she stayed
She goes.

I Have Seen

I have seen you are with me
You have been my sole companion
On this trip, this journey.

Never alone, my heart, my soul
Feel your gentle breath
Breathing.

At peace, I am feeling
Your hand in mine leading
Keeping.

I Break My Heart

I break my heart, injure my soul
Sacrifice my love
Feeling remorse forever more.

Nothing
Will bind the pieces together
Must take it out of mind.

Feel
The injuries, the heartache, the crying
Then leave them all far behind.

With All That Has Happened

With all that has happened
My soul is drawing on
Her experience, her knowledge
To guide me thru
The labyrinth of time.

My heart has given all to her
Believing in her guiding light
I will rest
When the time is right.
