Told

I’ve been unusually bold
Saying things
maybe should
Not be told.

My heart does laugh
The secrets out
Its been told.

But then again
My mind does know
Repercussions come
From places
Yet untold.

Delicately Said

Delicately said
The words come out
Saying things
Leaving no doubt.

There is a God
He lives right here
His breath is felt
He’s very near.

Words said
Heal a broken heart
Like falling rain
Never to be lost again.

Feeling Life From Before

 

 

 

Feeling life from before
Standing here beside me
Saying things
Reliving times gone before.

Joyous reunion
Sad thoughts passing
Hugging life and lives
That lived before.

I know I am one
Who does not stand alone
Beside, in front and behind
Are those whose lives
Have lived before.
