Sorry I Didn’t Help

Sorry I didn’t help
Sorry I didn’t see
All the misfortune
Overwhelming you
Me.

It may be tomorrow
When I can see
The way to help you
Set you free.

Until then
Please be patient
Do all you can to understand
Not
Judging me.

A Early Start And A Late Beginning

A early start and a late beginning
Holds the answer
To all winning.

Let no one see your hesitation
Be brave, forge ahead
It will be your salvation.

The Worst Is Over

The worst is over
The healing begins to mend
Silently
We hold one another
We know we are together
Once again.

No one will break us apart
No, never again
Will we be so bitter, angry
With one another
For the healing, the mending
Now begins.

I See Your Life

I see your life in front of me
I see when you fail
And
When you succeed.

Yours is not a life of in-between
You go for all
You leave nothing undone
Nothing not tried.

Yes
That’s the way
The way it all seems.

Never Heard Them Say

Never heard them say
Words seeking disaster
No, not today.

But may I testify
That words were said
In anger
Words that need not
Be said
Not one more day.

Keep them contained
In humour
Make those that need
Laugh today.

Never more
Courting disaster
Never hating ever again
If only for just today.

All I Can Know

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

All I can know
You have given me.

Nothing is left
Out of my destiny.

No heart pumps
Without a soul,

No mind smiles
Unless they know.

Sing The Song You Hear

Sing the song you hear in your head
play the tune rhyming there instead
for if you follow all those sweet words
joy will be your reward
love will accompany you wherever you may tread.

Fully In Love

I know you haven’t been
Fully in love
No matter what is said
What is seen.

You smile and laugh
You offer your hand to help
But still, still part of you
Doesn’t love, doesn’t feel
Anything.

Let The World Turn

Let the world turn
resolve the problems
that really are not our concern.

Let the sky be blue not with sadness
but remembering memories not gone
not lost from me, from you.

See the earth tremble
cry in anticipation of wondrous joy to come
never seeing anything but a good outcome.

That’s what we should see when looking out
looking at the world and all the things
that will become.

Have I Been Helpful

Have I been helpful, have I’ve been the best?

Looking back upon the year
What would I change, what would I let rest?

No time to dwell, no time for remorse

For I must move forward, look ahead
To the year yet to unfold
And
Anticipate it to be full of wonders
Yet to be told.
