Don’t forget love is our way of life

It will never leave you in the dark only lead you to the light



Don’t forget love is our way of life

When It finds its’ way to you hold on to it with all your might



Don’t forget love is our way of life

It will never put your spirits' flame out only help it burn extremely bright



Don’t forget love is our way of life

Never swaying you wrong, always feeling completely right
Lacy Dodd Mar 2013
Words can be lain straight
for simplicity
words can be twisted
for complexity

...

The writer decides
what he shall confide
Just as the reader conveys
the message in his own way

...

Write from the heart
to put feelings into words
Write from the mind
so concerns will be heard

...

Read to enrich the soul
Read to enhance the senses
Read to grow whole
Lacy Dodd Mar 2013
At the pit of my soul
twisting up in fury
Feeling like an empty hole
May it all be a theory?

Knotted up within my gut
I shall have to disentangle
Although I know I must
Its future seems a wrangle  

This case I'd gladly dismiss
but my conscious strongly holds
Leaving me without such bliss
"Let it go" so I've been told

Will it ever be so simple
to let it be and set me free?
or forever be my *******  
keeping my soul feeling sick at sea

Blessed be those who know
not of doubt and jealousy
for it takes the spirit low
and the mind believes so carelessly
Lacy Dodd Mar 2013
Your soul is not mine, yet we are intertwined
As one we have merged
We fight not the urge
To be together as long as our hearts desire each other
This love is no possession nor is it an obsession
Its essence is simply the purest  
And fails not to be only the truest
Lacy Dodd Jan 2013
Its sides are solid
               6 sides
    Hollow, but within
                         I sit
Tapping my pen
               6 sides
crumbling this paper
            piece of paper



                      Staring
at me and
               6 sides
     screaming blank
Lines begging to hold
                   words
      words
              my words
                6 sides
This is built
              with
                6 sides
trapping many
     many writers trapped
              within
                6 sides
   these solid sides
Although hollow inside
                    you sit

****
        tapping this pen
against these
                6 sides
    Until
              They  
                        Fall
And
          All
                  These
                               Thoughts
come
  pouring
            in     and words
                          form beautiful
                        beautiful words
                  they  form
                               into
SOMETHING at last
               No
                 6 sides
      trapping us
                     inside

Your touch sends my senses on a sensual ride
Building tension to embrace your body to mine
Forming thoughts of your tender caress invade my mind
Your kiss brings a rush of bliss like a raging tide
As your hands work their way around me to pull me in tight
Holding on to you my love sets in certain sights
I'm not afraid to say I want only you for the rest of my life
Lacy Dodd Nov 2012
The sun beams down lighting up my face and warming my skin
Coaxing my eyes shut to leave the physical world
Letting the natural world fill my veins
The wild wind refreshes my lungs
Replenishing my whole inner being
My mind goes to a wonderful place to take a break from the ever crazy reality
My body begins to weigh down sinking into earths comforting ground
Natures lullaby soothes me to drift off into unconsciousness

The land of dreams and wonderful things, hopefully
With nature surrounding me and cloaking me in divine bliss
Only allowing the subconscious to bring to life beautiful scenes
Flowered trees, fields of green, skies painted picture perfect blue, the air smells and tastes of honeydew, birds sing along to natures tune, the rivers move to the beat of Mother Nature’s heart

A natural awakening brings back my soul from its deep sleep
Slowly uprooting my body from Mother Natures’ loving grasp
She infused me with her energy to help me through the unnatural world we live in
I can't wait for the sun to coax me again to close my eyes and appreciate her beautiful essence once more
