Plagued by thoughts
Which haunt every waking moment
Reassured only by images of your face
Pervading my oldest memories.
Reaching out to grasp hold
Hopeful that my touch would
Confirm your existence
But too soon confusion sets in
As your face evaporates in a puff of smoke
Leaving behind the painful truth of it all.

In this noise polluted zone
I no longer feel at home
The strange faces that I see
Are all looking back at me.
When did these changes all take place?
Is my question to the one who commands time and space
I was not even truly aware
But I refuse to live in fear.
This is where dreams come to life
Racing against the sands of time
Grasping them quickly to make the journey complete
There is no possible way I will accept defeat.

You know how some people
Come into your life
Who touch your heart
And make you smile?
You're one of them...

Break Of A New Day
Birds chirping,
Crickets singing,
People laughing,
Cars passing.
Dawn is breaking,
Clouds are shaping,
People walking
Fowls are dancing.
All else is SILENT.

Why all the insecurities?
I love you.
Isn't that enough?
I see no one else.
You're that soft, gentle breeze
That touches my skin.
A beautiful hibiscus
In a garden of roses
You're the only thing that makes sense
In a world riddled with confusion.
You bloom in a field of stunted growth
A picture of hope
Tearing away the tangled vines
That surround my heart.

Having a disability
Doesn't mean you're helpless
It means you show the world
You'll work that much harder
To fulfill your dreams.
Never mind the countless stares
The many whispers
And those who lack faith
That things will get better.
The journey isn't meant to be easy
But with a dose of
Courage
Love
Support
and Determination...
You shall survive!

The fear of the night comes creeping in
Will it hold danger
Or some other unexpected mystery?
The panic is evident with no sense of safety
Just the unknown around every corner and
Only the hope of knowing
That dawn will come...
Eventually.

The rhythm of my heart
Beats with such musical intensity
Can you hear it?
So complicated the arrangement
Yet impressively expressive
To all who listen deeply
riveted by
the captivating elements
of LOVE

(1)
I'm not the one you turn to
When the day is about to end
I'm the one you turn to
When you say you need a friend.
(2)
I'm not the one you turn to
When your feet are on solid ground
I'm the one you turn to
When your world has turned upside down.
(3)
I'm not the one you turn to
When you say you need a hug
I'm the one you turn to
When you want to hear, "Well done!".
(4)
If this is how it's going to be
We need to clear a few things up
You have to set your priorities straight
Or this will have to stop.
(5)
It's not fair to only need me
When your life seems somewhat glum
I have my share of off days
You're not the only one.
(6)
You don't need me in the good times
Only on the darkest days
But if you search and cannot find me
It's because you forced me to walk away.
