Tortured And Sad

Tortured and sad 
struggle to understand 
the world in my world 
beyond the bad. 

See the goodness 
believe and be glad 
for tomorrow 
may be better 
nothing 
tortured nor sad.

Pleasantly

Pleasantly helping, pleasantly being 
the most my world
my life, myself
can be. 

There’s no better one to know
then me 
there’s nothing I want, desire 
except to be. 

The one who loves
cares and sees
beauty in all life and pleasantly being
all I can be.

I Know You Haven’t Seen

I know you haven’t seen
The world I see
Know you most likely
Don’t really care.

But to me, it’s everything
It’s my world, my life
My very being
I live it everyday
I wake up wondering
What the universe
Will bring me today.

Will I laugh, will I cry
Or just be silent as I watch
This world come
Take me on a journey
You’ll never see
It’s mine
It belongs only, to me.

Soft And Tender

Soft and tender my heart waits to remember
Kisses, caresses I’ve lived in my life, seen in my life
Gentle and kind
Making my world one I don’t mind.

The heart is full with it all
Trying to make sense of it all
Because blessed we be
When in the midst of some senseless tragedy
We see a soul soft and tender
That’s when we remember
Remember our heart is full, full of it all
Soft and tender.

I Have Seen

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have seen
many things.

I need to use
those experiences
to make my world
a better place
for all I care for
and love.
