Free My Love
Pamela Penta Feb 2016
I want to wake up every morning
With sunshine on my face
Songbirds outside my window
And the warmth of your embrace

I want to walk among the forests
Into the darkness deep
Experience a desert's night
And watch you while you sleep

I want to hike with you up a mountain
And bathe with you in a stream
Make love to you in a meadow
Of daffodils and green

I want to roll with you in a snow bank
And run with you in the rain
See all that we've been missing
And never come back again.

Let's run away together
Run far and wide and free
Do all the things we dream to do
Be all we wish to be.

Leave this world far behind
Taking nothing in our pack
Come run with me, let's run away
Never looking back.

Gone are the days
When men used to call
With care and respect
Upon a lady
Gone are the days
When ladies behaved
With respect for themselves
Gone are the days
When family was all
And took priority
Over everything
I've watched the world
Change in my lifetime
Into a place
I don't want to be.
I'm tired of being alone
But I fear those I might love
Will this one be
Angry, abusive, addicted or worse?
Will they use me and then leave?
Life is not meant
To live alone
But alone is all I see
Gone are the days
When men loved their wife
And cherished who she was
Built home and life for her
Protected her and kept her safe
Why can't that be me?

LIVE!
Pamela Penta Feb 2016
Live your life.
Don't ever let anyone tell you
You can't.
You're not good enough.
You shouldn't.
Do what you LOVE!
Do what makes you HAPPY!
Chase your DREAMS!!
This is YOUR life.
Not your parents, your teachers,
Your friends!
YOURS!
Don't follow because it is easier
DARE to BE!
FEEL every moment.
EMBRACE every experience.
LOVE with your whole being.
Be HAPPY!
Follow your BLISS!
Life is short.
Don't die saying I wish I had,
Be able to say
I'm glad I DID!!
Be with the person who
Brings your JOY!
Who enhances your life!
Who will run beside you
Laugh with you
Sing and dance with you!!
Have no regrets.

Never be afraid to be YOU.

My Wish For You
Pamela Penta Feb 2016
All the stars up in the heavens
All the beauty of the sea
All the glory of the mountains
This I wish for thee

All the wonder of creation
All your dreams to come true
All the love within the world
This I wish for you

All the happiness and laughter
Peace without an end
All the joys of life forever
I wish this for you, my friend.
