You made it
You are doing so well
I'm so proud of you
You're doing it!
You're living your life
You are happy
You are safe
He loves you
He cares about you so much
You have no worries
Everything will work out
You won't feel like this forever
You will be okay

Sit with me awhile
Speak of happy things
Smile away the darkness
Soften my sadness with the
Sheer delight of your presence.

Let us dine on the sweet bread of life
I will toast the days gone by, moments of
mystery and majesty.  You, the hope that
tomorrow will be gentle, each day the revealing
of a new dimension of the pilgrim self.

Tell me stories of your journeys,
the streets you walked, mountains
conquered, tell me of love that filled
your world with lilac and rose, of dreams
that never came true.  I will listen with my
heart and find blessing in the feast of conversation.

Then, when the candle burns low,
I will close my eyes in the final sleep
and set my course for a distant star.

Sit with me awhile
Speak of happy things
Smile away my darkness
Send me on my way with a
quiet gesture of peace.

The tension a rich man undergoes to amass his wealth and keep it safe,
And the agony of losing some of it,
Is worse than the hardship a poor man faces to get his next meal.

Two hearts bond to form a single love,
Two joined spirits cannot be undone,
Two souls mingle, forever entwined,
Two bodies unite, becoming one

Love is the strangest of all studies
That ever existed 'neath the sun,
For only in equations concerning love
Does one plus one equal one!

Strong Winds
  Heavy Rains
All the Trees Sway
  Except One.
Tired of Being Strong
Wants to Break.

Truth is not a thought of the mind nor a scene through the eyes but the depths to which one feels love radiating from their soulful heart
