A new day is today
Waterfall of seeds blossom
Each with, thoughts its own
Not the same, although I wish it
Own myself, and my branches
Leaves born, fruit of acceptance
As rivers flow, and feed all growth
Different trunks, different roots
Generations of seeds, floating by
Winds of change, one each day
To share the pollen, that is mature
I control, which will depart
Not the forrest, nor it me
And if a storm, with its clouds
Touches ground, breaks all rules
I still control, my growth each day
Not to wither, nor to break
Accept myself, and the change
Despite all weather
That comes my way

I can see in the shadows
the gaze of loved ones
who once gave me all
And now have departed
Still close yet far
I tried, yes I tried
All promises did I break
Crippled by the shame
So alone, so alone
I was one now two
One to see one to hide
I tried, yes I tried
I'm guilty if you wish
To call me such names
I wish deep inside
It would haunt me no more
The images that I see
Are so clear in the dark
My past and my present
All my dreams fall apart
As it eats me away
From loved ones and all
I tried, yes I tried
I feel hopeless and ashamed
I can't tell you my secrets
Just pray for me now
As my world crumbles
I surrender, I surrender, I surrender to you God

Tragedy strikes
The weak it does not spare
Lightning is its speed
and crippling is its pain
Ooze as a symbol
Of despair in the flesh
Express hollow feelings
After it has all past
Missing the moment
We wish to forget
A forrest of new memories
Fresh with each day
That grow attemting to hide
The campfire left behind
With crackling in the heart
And ashes in the mind
Too many silent prayers
Lay down on fallow lands
As tragedy strikes again
Crumbling are the knees
That once kept the height
Of the strong and the weak
Tears are too late, and too brief
Fear in the eyes
Of what lies ahead
Paralyzed is the soul
Life in slow motion
As tragedy strikes again
And the heart stands still
Wishing to just stop
To let go a last breath
But wishes are for others
Who carry different paths
Why is the question
Silence is the answer
A blank stare in the darkness
Will it strike again?
Will the excruciating pain return?
Is this the next time?
Or maybe tomorrow
The agony of this fear
Will now stay and not go

Deep craters
Hollow barks
Dark nights
In my soul
Under my skin
The distance and the silence
Of this room and its four walls
My empty thoughts and its dry tears
Cannot express
Visions of flying with no wings
Creatures crawling toward me
Fear
Penetrating
Cold
Shivering
Wishing a return to the womb
Instead of this
Instead of now
Loneliness does not describe
The deep truth
Not a mystery
Nor a riddle
Just the truth
Of being all alone

Prayers in the essence
Of my being
Hollow tears
Of a lonely heart
Healed for months
And then broken
Kneel and cry
As worlds clash then burn
Thunderous revenge
Inside and out
Of a past unchanged
Yet chained today still
Love long gone
Falling slowly
Down a cliff
It is sight
but so far
Just for others
To hold on
Not within
These cold wlls
Of this heart
With its cliff
Filled with prayers
And communion
Mercy for
Things gone wrong
Search for hope
To rebuild
With new love
For myself
I forgive
You may not
It is ok
As I move on

I say goodbye
I let you go
You are forgiven
And so am I
How could you always be inside?
I knew you not
Yet you controlled
My every move
I almost exploded
I felt so sad
I was afraid
To look deep inside
You piercing gaze
Your mellow ways
What a smile
Hid so much pain
The past was here
It never left
As you grew stronger
And yet so kind
Oh so sweet
Such gentle ways
Burrying your thorns
As blood gushed forth
Twisting and pulling
Screaming and pushing
Clenching and grinding
As fire and smoke
Kept building inside
While the forest of tears
Could not put you out
Tornado of feelings
Whirling its way
Up and down my spine
Every breath that I take
Yet you remained hidden
What a disguise
What's not to like
Says everyone smiling
But I see you now
All anger no fun
You had me controlled
But I tell you now
I say goodbye
I let you go

Hiding myself
Among the roses
Thorns pierce
The fragrant aroma
Budding growth
In this garden
Nurtured with patience
And respect
Blooming petals
Along the way
Bouquets lining
The two paths
Light and darkness
A part of love
Rise and wither
On same soil
A dozen tears
In each stem
On the card
Farewell wishes
Apologies
From the heart

Crushing losses, filled with sorrow
Landslides, in perpetual rain
Endless canyons
In the center, of my heart
With its magma, flowing down
Not in burts, but as seas
Crawling down, the open wounds
All around, to protect
From the sky
Every morning, a new sunrise
But not seen, just the clouds
With teardrops falling
In the tunnels, of my heart
Winds are blowing, smoke arises
As the sun, comes rushing in
Wounds are closing
Canyons filled
A brand new ocean
I wish to swim

In the blink of an eye
A whole life can change
I live as though
I earned it somehow
It is mine
I am in control
But just one eyelid
Decides every moment
Just one blink
And life can start
Just one blink
And we miss an eclipse
Of candles burnt out
A heartbeat
A light touched
The sudden excitement
Of friendship reborn
I final breath and goodbye
A smile or a nod
A fall or a jump
The end or the beggining
Just one blink
And a star is born
In the sky
Of my soul
That will shine
Even after
My eyelids
Finally close

Food of healing
Of love and hope
Share my cup
Let me feed your soul
And wake your heart
To a life
Filled with joy
No regrets
And no fear
Just to be
As you are
Not the name
You are called
Close your eyes
And the senses
And suddenly
It will appear
As you feel
With your heart
Deep inside
In an ocean
Not of tears
But of love
And as you feel
You will see
Love is
The food of life

As I close my eyes
I hear moments long gone
Whispers in the dark
In my heart
In my soul
Gentle tears
Flowing down
Lovely doves
Flying by
Make me smile
Let me weep
Pick me up
In your palm
I will live
As I sleep

Silent walls
Of my mind
Of this room
Weeping tears
Of my heart
Sitting here
I feel glued
To this room
In my mind
Many memories
Of our future
Voices of my soul
Roses in the mist
I see hope
You are gone
So am I
In this weekend
Of goodbye
You are past
I am future
Monday comes
I start a new

Cold and dry is its surface
Standing tall beyond the lens
Just some names but no soul
Revolving doors see them pass
Looking through is no horizon
Just the shadows in the dark
In a trance as they walk
Past each other with a glance
No tomorrow shall they share
Gathered round in its rooms
Without a touch in despair
Create new meaning to dissolve
To break through and revive
What once was long ago
The creative nature of us all

Not long ago
Sadness
Laughter
Panic
Tears
Joy
Were all here
Just calm remains
So many empty chairs
Disordered as they may
Waiting
Waiting
Whose tears will I dry
Whose laughter will shake
These old legs
Bowing down
With this weight
In my heart

You left
Not a word, not a sign
Yes, it was brief
Of course, it did not cover
Life's changing events
But we said that word
The word of connection
Of a future of sharing
Not the surface
Like so many others
But of visions of hope
A mistake is so costly
All it takes is a phrase
To end in a breeze
What started just as quick
Can we be friends again?
I guess no more

The end stares, straight in my eyes
I step back to see
The picture laid befor me
Broad is the horizon
But darkness appears close
Forever in my thoughts
Empty how it feels
It has not moved
Yet I have come closer
One step at a time
To dwell in my heart
It seeks to sneak in
And freeze each drop
Of blood that runs through
So giving me life
One beat for each breath
It roams, I retreat
Slowly giving me up
My land and my home
But I can still see
My family and friends
The dinners together
Laughter and tears
My time is now near
Goodbye is forever
I bid all farewell
Until we meet again
Once again to say cheers

I don't feel it is coming
I don't feel it at all
Somehow I'm numb
To the candles and the lights
Many are shopping
Or making big plans
While I'm just here
Wondering what's wrong
No white carpet outside
No excitement inside
It doesn't make sense
Every year I was joyful
Running up and down
Wrapping paper and bows
Surprises and thrills
Now it's all gone
I would rather fall asleep
A hug, a happy wish, a thank you and goodnight
Is it just me?
I hear cheerful songs
An emotional desert
All my own
No sun or clouds
No moon or stars
A dried creek
In my heart
Tomorrow is another day
I will do it all again
Maybe that is just me
I can do it if I want
Nothing stops me
But my own thoughts
I can smile, it's ok
Laugh but feel hollow
I have done that before
I want that old joy
I know it is in there
Come out I command you
Echoes in the dark
My family now surrounds me
Love in their embrace
Joy in their voice
Generations of traditions
Forget all the presents
My family is my joy

Let us cross paths
For just a few moments
Walking, side by side
Seeing, the same moon
Stars light the road
Where passion, lay down still
Histories beyond description
Not only the surface, do we share
Longing for connection
Separate, we are not
Destinies far apart
Not thought of, at this time
We cherish each second
As tomorrow closes in
Memories will outlast
Even brief days together
Our souls see each other
Our hearts beat, as one
When the time comes, to depart
No sorrow will match
Emotions so deep
Eternal from the start
And if our paths cross
In the future, once more
It will be like long ago
We hear what we feel
We feel as before
Before is not gone
We have come in circles
And it is good to be back

I knew you so well
Before you were due
As dreams of a future
Which is not my own
I reached out my hand
I touched you and you came
I saw you in the distance
As you rushed by and left
A train in the desert
With storms of its sands
Predictions of sorrow
Of laughter and of joy
To change all my visions
Is to stay in the past
I share my emotions
I share what I see
But in your direction
Fear is in me
My dreams cannot reach
What lies in your heart
As this falls and fades
Like towers made of cards
My new vision is now here
Your life is not mine
Your wishes in your hands
May it all fall in place
Destiny is all yours
I accept you for who you are

Distant memories
Of love so cold
All things have failed
In my hope
To return
One more try
Ill and frail
Surrounded by
Only myself
Alone is not
A word to say
It is my life
In one shell
I wish for change
And for freedom
It holds me back
In its cage
I look out
I feel in
Too weak to cry
Too strong to weep

What time is it?
It does not matter
It could be midnight or past
Our conversation can have no end
No words are exchanged
It is all in a smile
A giggle, a laugh
It is right there between us
Do you see it like me?
It hovers then flows
Into a bridge of rose petals
Under your skin and mine
Blinking so slowly
One breath at a time
No words are exchanged
None need to be said
It is just you and me
In this moment without end

With these words I can tell you
But I can heal you no more
The cross that you carry
Are my regrets and my shame
The language I speak
Does not touch the heart
Yes, I am no different
But now as so long ago
My essence is still here
May face has so changed
And as the old phoenix
I wish to return
To lift and to fly
Unburden the cross
To heal and to rest
Once more in a song

As the sun goes down
And shadows emerge
Black and orange
Mix and blend
In a silent dance
That will return
Some shall go
and others stay
To see more shadows
Who fade away
In deep black and twinkles
That will return
Some shall go
And others stay
To see more twinkles
Who fade away
In deep blue and yellow
Another dance in silence
Day and night
New and old
Present and past
Life and peace
All blend
In this sunset
Of our hearts
Some shall go
And others stay
We stand not still
We move not fall
Constants in motion
Until the end
When we lay
To complete our cycle
A new day
Is ahead

It is my last day
Welcome back
To the book, of my life
Turn the pages, look inside
Still so much, in deep caves
Its lava flows, like rivers still
Silence grows
My thoughts are home
Break the silence
With these drums
Of my heartbeat
It feels so strong
I'm not worried
Its ok
I shall go now
But I am home

Wooden soldiers, in a golden war
Battlegrounds, with flames and smoke
Terror rises, in hearts of steel
Winners always believe it true
Bitter losses, of existence
Raise all flags, filled with sorrow
Happiness shall come one day
Finding not, the deeper meaning
Starving anger, with inner peace
Distorted thoughts, within the rage
Justice hovers, does not land
To melt the heart, and lead one breath
Chips and ashes, of broken men
Torn apart, while sleeping still
As they are, but do not live
Strive to be, with less effort
Settle down, without a fight
Faced with truth, and knowledge
That piece will win, every battle

My bones are dry
My skin powder
My eyes sunken
Into hollow craters
Each finger still
Both hands crossed
In an endless dream
Where only souls go

And yet I know
Now, as then
My heart will still beat
It may seem still
The blood may seem dry
But now, as then
My love for you remains strong

In dark as in light
Beneath this unmovable soil
My memories of you
I know
Now, as then
I will recall
My feelings for you
I will relive

Even the coldest soul
Even the lonliest heart
Will return from
This endless sleep
To join hands
Once again
In an endless dream

Steam surfaces in spurts
As signals from within
A code in fumes and smoke
The mound grows in inches
Hurt buried in graves
Sealed without healing
Not dead nor alive
Limbo creates angst
If you walk up above
Steps press and sqeeze
No space to move aside
I look up and around
clenching teeth and fist
I stare now and before
But release I cannot
As the anger boils and steams
And lava expands below
My five senses feel the pain
Of currents coming out
Just streams but not enough
To lighten this my burden
My explosion comes atop
Shedding all its molten
Burning those around
Melting all the walls
Which once held my home
No longer can I wait
No longer will I wait
My explosion boils and blows
Away I send the past
No longer to return
As I move forward

Let me be positive
It seems like the first time
But, I am still thinking negative
And cannot focus well
I stand at the brink
Of hope and defeat
The crossroad
Of wishes and sorrow
Just one step stands between
A future of yesterdays
Or a past of tomorrows
I stand here, I sit here
I lie here now
Fearful of this one step
Of possibles
I try to find the strength
Of a cub become lion
The courage
Of a mother in fear
Just to move one finger
That will point towards the way
I rise one more time
And take a first step
With fear in my heart
But positive that this choice
Is movement after all

Let me talk, just let me talk
I'm so tired
To even carry
My own thoughts
I want to live
In a house
Adrift at sea
With my music, and my quotes
Seagulls gliding by
Windmills in the sky
I want to ground my feet
And stand up high
Climb the stairs
Of the thoughts, in my heart
Slide down rivers
Filled with hope
Land on clouds
Flying high, stand again
Deep deep dive
In the ocean, of my mind
Swim out clear, swim out clean
Of this sadness, that I feel
It's my story
Lying low, then I dive
Lying low, then I dive
But I see it now
I feel the change
Let me talk, just let me talk
As I stand, atop this cloud
Not to dive
But to fly

Living each day
Looking around
Trying to understand
What is in sight
Life was once clear
My surroundings made sense
Everything had a meaning
And a place
The weather was always pleasant
Close friends in abundance
But today just distance
No more welcomes with open arms
Look at others through faded windows
Gloomy weather, no real friends
Acquaintances at best
Strange rules govern all
Everyone seems to know
How life is supposed to be
Me?
Just transplanted
A foreigner
In a foreign land

When the final leaf, of autumn falls
Bare it leaves, its branch and trunk
Brown the mood, along its veins
Crumpled by grief, the sun is gone
Clouds cover, every inch above
Dry roots, that feed it life
Barren and cold, the soil cannot
Hold on to rain, and keep it moist
Days will come, when wrinkles cover
Tempered bark aged in barrels
Of snow drifted, to its side
By artic winds, from mountains frosted
And if, that day comes to be
Each creek will fill, with pebbles called
One by one, their names in glory
Under a bridge, with planks of wood
From these same trees, standing tall
Digging deep, into our earth
And so the seasons, come to be
With change in, water and in winds
But trees and pebbles, still remain
From the ground to up above
In each tree rests a forrest
Just one name unites it all
It is the forrest, of our life

How do you bond in thirty seconds?
I wish I would know
Since it happened to me
Just a quick gaze
A smile or a laugh
There is this one moment
When you feel someone's soul
It's just that quick
No words or actions
It just happens that way
So many I know
No matter how long
I keep on learning
How different they are
But in thirty seconds
I can bond with you somehow
I really don't know what else to say
It is not in a nod or in the clothes
It is not in a gesture or anything else
There is this one moment
When you feel someone's soul
That is how it happened
I bonded with you that day

Bright reds
Yellows and blues
What a beautiful garden
As I stand at my window
I look
I smell
I smile
What joy
Why not me?
Spring all around
My glacier home
Soft rose petals
Bright tulips rise high
With tangled roots
Painting of life
On every wall
Of my room
Children play
In the distance
Their joy touches the windows
Their smiles too far
To melt this frozen cage
Tears of ice
Too distant from it all

Plant me like a seed
That will blossom overnight
Water me in the dark
And I will flower in the dusk
Take away these weeds
That crowd my tender roots
Let me grow without thorns
Or shells that wrap my spine
Help me reach up high
To a sky free of clouds
I shall be grateful to all
Who cared for me each day
Gardeners of love
Selfless with passion
And when the winds blow strong
I shall let go my fragile pollen
Into streams of new hello's
To meet grounds with the welcome
Of old friends who have returned
To the times of childhood's past
And never felt a day go bye
Without thinking of each other
I shall see it reach above
It's wild roots of youth and candor
Stretch its branches awaiting an embrace
Of its parents left behind
In the distance I will watch
As its trunk becomes wider
With the wisdom of the years
And its pollen sets for sail
Among new seas of floating feathers
To blossom one more time
As others did before it
While we age, my ground and I
And hold our grip ever stronger
Until we reach our last day
Of this our great journey
Having seen so many go
And join with other soil
To age just like us
Knowing well that all good deeds
Have been accomplished

Stories burried in rubble
Ancient castles stand still
Look around me
Look in me
I am them
Old paintings, broken mirrors
Cobwebs above
What is hidden below?
Leave it there
Let it be
Century old walls
Stone and mortar
Keep away new battles
Others within
No light, no power
No fire, just cold
Ghosts of life once lived
Music and dance
Filled every corner
Touched every room
Now a peaceless silence
Echoes of voices long gone
In the depths
Of this restless heart

To my addiction
I now say goodbye
You have stayed with me
So long and so quite
You thrilled, your rush
Infused in my veins
Decrepit my soul
Bleeding my heart
So alone I have been
And so torn apart
My family and friends
They knew not
Hiding from them
Both, you and I
This is my chance
To come back to all
To live with the love
You don't have inside
I'm thrilled that this moment
Has finally arrived
Not just farewell
Forever goodbye

I am half way there
And in the middle of my indecision
I see the stairway up, I see the stairway down
Not clear when I departed
Or when I will arrive
The start a blur, two ends in sight
Door one below
Take a guess; what will it be
Door two above, maybe it is best
Where to go?
How to choose?
My only guide inside
Not my eyes, or my ears
All else will follow
Connect my soul with each door
I can feel the rainbows
Of peece and pain
Still here in the middle
Not a step has changed
I should sit while I think
Two doors, two rainbows
No telling how, no telling when
My life ended
A canvas half white, half black
I stand, one foot on each side
Hot, cold
Sweet, sour
Love, sorrow
Full, empty
Two halves, one me
Two hearts, two souls
Two thoughts, two stairs
A tug of war, no winner
A tie, I stand still
In the middle of my indecision
What do I feel?
What am I thinking?
Why don't I move?
I should sit while I think
Time travels so fast
How gray I am now
I sit, in the middle; still thinking
Why don't I move?
My canvas still blank and white
But I am gray
Not black nor white
I stretch and shake
My gray spreads and paints
My canvas now shades
Rainbows all around
No longer two stairs
A canvas of paths
Filled with shades
An adventure all its own
Hidden before me, now clear
Motion among colors
Of my heart and soul
My thoughts behind
No longer in my way
As I flow freely
In my own sea

Wear your gown
Walk and smile
A day so special, it is for you
You have waited, for so long
and your hand, bears as witness
Of the struggles, that have passed
Your insided beauty, and your glow
Were hidden and sealed, for some time
Breaths so shallow, with the pain
In the veins, and the soul
Lift one hand, wave to all
Tears of joy, and farewell
A honeymoon, and a life
New not old, past the dawn
Fear of joy, not of sorrow
Fill the aisle, as you walk
Look ahead, don't turn back
Take the risk, stumble and fall
Pure and white, in this moment
All the rest, left behind
I am proud, so are you
You have grown, before my eyes
It is time, to hand you off
With these tears, in my eyes
My heart beats fast, yours not so
It rests assured, of each step
But I smile
And in return
You say thank you
My dear nurse

Here I am
Here I lie
Warm cuddles all around
Sweet purrs walk about
The tic tac of a clock
Oh how time passes by
Warm cuddles all around
Sweet purrs walk about
Time passes by
Not to wait
Not to stop
Here I am
Here I lie
Still the same
Maybe not
I look inside
And I can see
Not clear yet
But I can see

Tears of spring roll down
Dry creeks filled
With **** grown out of pain
From this departure, premature
In silence held
The sorrow bottled
Freedom distant, not at hand
These gray bars
Projected not real
Imprison the heart with this hurt
Tomorrow will rise
Dark clouds shall move on
The creek will dry out
And healing begin
To continue in life
The pain from this moment, can return some day
And so shall the sun
and so shall my joy
for human is my name

I want to be happy
I want to be angry
I want to be sad
I want to be me
In each moment while I smile
Remember the years
Of dreams fulfilled, and troubled steps
Of a past with needles
Promises in thin air
Hope for a day like today
Forgiveness walked by, as I closed my eyes
And awoke to a new start
New names, new walls, new promises
How did I fall?
In a new past
It is here nonetheless
Six months and goodbye
Anxiously awaiting, nine months in the womb
After climbing new steps
A vision so near, within reach of my embrace
The warmth of its sun
The peace of its breeze
The calm of its still waters
My reflection shining through
White doves all around
As I smile once again
The flood of pain washed away
I am here, not alone
But with myself
I am sad, I am angry
I am afraid, I am happy
I am fulfilled
My vision at hand
Shall you join?
No longer am I counting
I move ahead stronger
My heart one with my soul
My future built of many today's
My past now a distant memory
No longer on my shoulders
No longer in my eyes
For I have changed
I am now me

I have been gone
But you never left
My pen is my friend
Caligraphy its path
The shapes come together
Another page, is complete
Stories, from today
From a time, also gone
Erased, by the actions
Ripped, and torn apart
Return they cannot
Change is today
New for a moment
Eternal in this journal
The oxygen of my breath
Collected through my years
Five until right now
Let me read, an old chapter
It seems like today
I feel it, rushing on
In every vein, every limb
I must let it go
Forget about that joy
Excessive, as the pain
Neither close to middle
Where I look, to be again
A sentence, in each chapter
Except, in those to come
Blank, today's page
And all those to follow
Such, is my journal
It leads me to new days

Down off a cliff
The precipice of life
A sceptic fall, where aspirations cannot survive
Sunken emotions, lethal feelings skin deep
As two streams overflow, the corners of farewell
No goodbyes as this day, holds the promise of return
To the times now long gone
An old home built of sand
New foundation found in rocks, under rivrrs of despair
Cherish only dreams, in a fog of oneself
Wake to the truth, as the bottom is in sight
To escape the dark end, is a wonder to be felt
To jump and not slip, our own will to renew
As the flames within passion
Spread ashes in the path
That leads to an ocean
Filled with hope and with courage

In my fall, there are circles
To loneliness, of the past
I forget to climb, brand new mountains
As I sleep, in the waters
Where fires run wild
Hiding, from the many colors
That play, mix and bind
Looking at the distance memories
With my eyes closed wide
Hiding in dreams, never ending
Riding trains, to netherworld
Every moment, is how it seems
With a lens, colored gray
Fog trapped just beneath
Solitude of a mind
Tangled threads, of a twine
Kaleidoscope, of a past never changing
Paints the color, of my lens
Different worlds, with every turn
From deep blues, to feel now yellow
Is to hold
A brand new day

Let me say goodbye
After this our brief hello
As a rivers rolls toward the sea
So too our memories will flow
No longer in my future
No longer part of me
I shall not miss
The depths of darkness
As I rise a phoenix, set free
This is a new moment
That I wished for so long
A star in the distance
Now shining so bright
I had not seen it
Though it stood right before me
No longer shall tears of shame
Cross down my torn skin
Rivers of despair
Lie dry as they may
No more guilt or remorse
Today is a new day
Tomorrow is ahead
Sunrise in the horizon
New roads filled with joy

I would love to sing
And tell you what I feel
You want to know much
But it is dark
Much too dark
Even I cannot tell
I guess there was a time
I'm sure I giggled and ran
Foolish kid
Living in today
It is sad
Is it not?
Those moments are long gone
Torn, crushed
Broken, burnt
It doesn't matter
I can't be him
I am m
I am now
I am here
Wish me luck
As I dive
It is this way
I fall
I crumble
It hurts
Let me go
Why face it?
I was fine as I was
Why forget the past
Or not think of tomorrow
Nothing exists
Not me in the end

Smile clown smile
Dress up and paint your face
Jump and fall down
It's just paint after all
Look at them laugh
Here them clap
They laugh about you
Who cares in the end?
The joke is on you
Keep it inside and hide
Smile while you are empty
Smile while you are sad
Smile while you are dying
They will still laugh
Smile clown smile
The show must go on
Hurry, step right in
Jump and fall again
No one will come to your rescue
It's just paint after all

Songs from the heart
Always rhyme and never end
With these words
On my chest
On my arms
In the depths, of my mind
If the music
Plays again
I will see
A new beginning
Come to me
Once again
With the wisdom
Of old times
When the Lord
Spoke to lead
To keep a promise
To touch and change
My soul forever
And as we all
Move along
Our different paths
Walk or run
We will find
In the roads
Of pain and sorrow
Inner strength
To transform
Our own selves
And the world

My hands are not yours
Its creases bear a future
Not a past that was brief
Of friendship not of love
My arms hug the mind
Not a body nor its skin
My body caresses
The winds from afar
That bring in its midst
Words from these poems
That sing in the dark
And leave not for long
Just enough to return
My hands are for me
And the one that I love
For they have long changed
And I moved along

Winter winds have come and gone
Empty nests await the return
Of new yolk to settle in
Under warmth of northern feathers
Innocent cries seeking moist crumbs
Filled with love and sacrifice
Born not learned, actions not words
Fly one time, fear not fall
Look ahead to brand new skies
Fly again more strength each try
Now alone but returns
Continued growth under guidance
Mistakes will happen, scars arise
Health cannot develop without
ills of stumbles, succes not full
On to a new branch not far
From where youth was left behind
For now, empty remains atop a tree
Cold and hollow among the winds
That silence the songs of love and joy
Celebrate now, rejoice then
It is a home expecting to fill
The void of this chilly season
And when the sun is bright and smiles
It is assured to see the birth
As success comes flying in
