I stared at my canvas,
Unshakable, proud and bold
I swirled the colours around
And my story, I told

I started out with rose
Pouring my love
I added some white
The colour of my dove

I sprinkled some sky
Calling me wise
And a touch of yellow
For the sun to rise

I worked on it for days
And months and years
I wanted it to be perfect
The life I held so dear

Finally, one night
As bright as a ray
I felt complete
I stepped away

Staring back at me
Was my smile

Thank you for destroying me
And I say it with the utmost sincerity
Thank you

For forcing me to walk through the rubble
inspecting brick by broken brick
recognising all the cracks in my foundation

Thank you for forcing me
to figure out all the reasons why
I had been so fragile in the first place

What a treat
What a privilege

To release Beautiful Little Baby turtles
Without the hurdles
Into the sea
In the Gulf of Mexico
This was heaven to me!

Their tiny little flippers
Tickling my hand like the clippers
This beautiful little creature
Raring  to go to the sea
Made me feel So elated
On the beach in Mexico
One of the best times of my life
This was heaven to me!

What a treat
What a privilege!

Colour between the lines
Watch for the warning signs
At the first glimmer of sunshine
Close the blinds
Be wary of the good times

She can walk
          between
             night and day
               never letting either
                  get in her way.
She learned this trick
                     many moons ago
                                by
                     going deep within
           and never letting it show.
Her soul is innocent
her heart is pure
she’s gone through more
than most could endure.
            She’s an angel of light
                 an angel of dark
                 you never know
              what you will spark.
                      You want to hurt her?
                         Please, go ahead and try
                           she’ll be the one to show you
                                  just how well she can
                                                              f
­                                                                l­
                                                                ­  y.
                                  Her soul innocent
                    her heart pure
      but never think for one minute
that she’s not secure.
                                Say what you will
                          please, do what you must
                       but your jealousy and hatred
                             won’t waver her trust!

Baby, don't worry,
I love you more
than my soul
You're my dream
and only goal.

I feel so sorry,
I'm not there with you
right now
But I always find myself
in you.
Soon I will get back
to you.

I love you, I miss you
Baby, don't worry!
I feel you, I want you
Honey, don't worry!

Sweetie, I will come soon.
Your memories
still make me smile
I remember
you were climbing a stile
to walk with me
in the afternoon.

One day all the dreams
will come true
'Cause everyone knows
our love is true.
There is no need to worry!
