I Don’t Know, I Haven’t Seen

I don’t know 
I haven’t seen
the truth 
The answer to all
That seems so mysterious
But
Serene. 

Let me look some more
Let me see
The beauty nestled
In this day
Unfolding gently
Beautiful and pristine.

Don’t Know

Don’t know 
where I’ve been 
or
what I’ve done. 

The truth
is 

I believe
my life, my journey 
has
just begun.

The Committee Has Spoken

The committee has spoken
The committee has risen
Giving a spokesperson
A chance to be heard.

Nominate one
To speak for them all
The committee has spoken
All is forgiven.

Bless them for being
Bless them for they have risen
And said the things
That kept us imprisoned.

There in our souls
Freeing us now
From that terrible prison.

Fly away, fly away
For the committee has risen
Speaking the truth
For all of us imprisoned.

The committee has spoken
The spokesperson be
A heartwarming person
Freeing us here
In our forever eternity.
