In fleeting moments I have read

That your soul is not dead

Intrige spreads across the page

I see you wanting out of your cage

Time to honor your journey of soul

So once again you will live whole

I see hope of a new promise

With a man named Sir Thomas

I saw those sad eyes many years ago

Only your sail goes the way it knows

It shall be interesting where the tide will take

Really it is only the shadow you will forsake

A ladder has been given to climb the wall

Will you give a hand?  Or watch it once again fall?

Inside I am empty and drained
My tears flow like fallen rain
I see the pool of water at my feet
As I look for the sign of the next street
I am trying hard not to be bitter
Not clogging my head with litter
I do not want to trip and fall
Hitting my head on the walls
It hurts and cuts way too deep
The downfalls I refuse to reap
I will surely take the higher road
I don't want extra baggage on this load
I can untangle the web I have weaved
In this I am truly relieved
My feet ladened move on ahead
For I refuse to live as if I am dead
Beyond I see the crossroads before me
Continuing forward I see what is meant to be
Street lights make my way bright
For future steps to take flight
Soon the trail of tears will cease
Then I will feel the true release
I will again walk on sacred ground
Inner peace again the only sound
Then others will follow in my prints
In the eyes I see the sparkling glints
Rain no longer falls down our cheeks
We now have only beauty and light to seek

Silence falls across the land
Some may not understand
That light becomes night
But do you have the sight?
Tick tock goes the clock
Broken hearts turn to rock
They have lost the rhyme
The beating drum is off time
Happiness is a choice
Within the truth of our voice
Don't allow shadows to win
Next moments are to begin
Matters not who, or what they are
Stop, look, see that falling star
Shadows are not a reality
Only an emotional fatality
I give you a thought, a smile
Maybe only for a short while
People always come and go
Reason we don't always know
But, I do know this for certain
Pure gold lies under your curtain
Time to cut those binding strings
Open them; allow the light to bring
Magic and miralces to you
Your soul knows it is true
Loudly annoucing it is the time
To once again find your rhyme
Tick tick goes the clock
Challenging you to crush the rock

The time is here
for you to see what is near
greatness walks beneath your feet
new worlds for you to greet
living within your soul
your heart no longer to be consoled
seeing beams of radiant light
I watch your true soul take flight
seeing new sparkles in your eyes
to me is no surprise
I first saw your beautiful soul
from afar not long ago
spirits never again to be lowered
as time moves forward
now your time is on sacred ground
you need only to listen for this sound
time to fly within the wings
enjoying the true freedom it brings
adventures coming within time
you need to be only the ryhme
as you stand high on thy tower
a stoic warrior within your full power
I bow at your feet
as you take your true seat
stride forever strong and free
as it was always meant to be

I wait so patiently
for the world to see
what I do know
it is such a blow
I listen to empty words
lies only to be heard
I wait for honor to win
seemingly that is now a sin
tick tock goes the clock
my heart turns to rock
slowly it stops beating
my life is retreating
saying it's last goodbyes
as I close my eyes
I gave up my life
to show you no strife
it was always your choice
to finally be the voice

Love whispers softly
As we enjoy our morning coffee
The sparkle in your eye
When you hug and touch me goodbye
The smile that comes upon my face
When my mind drifts in your space
Watching you stand proud and tall
Ready to take on them all
The sweet kiss upon my lips
You hands on my body running amiss
Shivers from your touch
Make me realize so much
Forever a soft place to lie my heart
Something no one can part
A special place only we know
I've been hit by the arrow of your bow
I have touched something unique
Now my journey is complete
Because now love whispers softly
While we drink our morning coffee

You speak the words
My ears are the only ones that heard
I know my heart is not made of lead
I have only terrible fears in my head
How can you say those things?
And still say your heart does not sing
You said for me you felt sorry
How could you? I live in glory
Can you truly not see?
The real true depth of me
I know more than a little is hidden
Do you carry a sheild? Or are you forbidden?
The words you sometimes are speaking
Send my mind and body seeking
What is the purpose of this?
Something in me you have missed
You said I was different
A new message sent
Refreshing change from the norm
Not a crashing raging storm
Inside I can tuly see
The whispers that need to be
I know what to do with this voice
That has left me no choice
I am leaving and letting go
So you might understand one day and know
