Would You Be Mine?

Would you be mine
til the end of time?

Would you hold me close
taking no notice of how long a time?

Would you love me more than
Julius to Cleopatra or just as much
if not more?

Would the sweet scent of love
fill your nostrils evermore?

Leaving nothing else
to take your breath away?

Cause my love
I will love you forever
Ever, in this way.

I Know Why I’m Here

I know why I’m here
Know the world spins and turns
I know sadness and grief
And
I know great joy and ecstasy.

Yes
I know what it means
To be in this world
And part of everything.

Hoping For The Best

Hoping for the best
Waiting
Waiting for the next
Adventure to happen
Nothing says it’ll come
But
Nothing says it won’t.

Hoping for the best
Knowing it will be
A time I’ll caress
Enjoying
Nothing but the best.

Sadness

Patrice Clarkson's Blog

Sadness lingers giving a sad taste
Mental anguish holds memories in
Sadness’s wake.

This too will pass in future’s time
Overshadowed
By weeping and sad crying.

For now I hold my sadness near
All that’s left
Of one life so dear.

No One Is Listening

Seems
No one is listening
To what I say.

Let it go, let it be.
Resting in the knowledge
I am here, I am all
I have to be.

So Long Ago

So long ago
I wrote my lines of love for you
So long ago
I lived my life for you
So long ago
I found I didn’t know you
So long ago
I left, left before you left me too
So long ago, so long ago
I loved you.

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.
