~

For this I see before my eyes
The dreams of lasting place
Alone I find the images
The smile upon your face

In darkness there is but a light
A shimmering I see
For when I open up my heart
You’re standing there with me

A silence comes though this I hear
The words I find so new
As every time you say to me
My darling I love you

I carry this within my mind
A gift from up above
And loneliness would be my friend
Without your precious love

So deep inside the feelings reign
For wonders you have been
To satisfy my fantasies
And touch my life again

So long the days have counted by
Of endless longing miss
To hold you in my arms once more
To taste your precious kiss

I need to only close my eyes
The dreams so soon to start
I feel the love that you do send
Right here within my heart

The memories of distant times
And those we make anew
Have come back to my life again
I’m so in love with you

~

all effortlessly
flowing out
of me,
when I
let go

living poetry
roots me into
the seat
of my heart

We are all a burden
to many around us
but we are the burden
most of them want to carry
to feel joy
to feel need
to feel purpose

Our cells may age
but the metaphors
never do

Babies need their mothers
and their mothers
need them too

I'm trying my best
To grasp at the fact
Of how long is eternity

To help in my quest
Stay on the right track
Before I take my leave

It's not only for me
That I need to believe
But also those in whom I care

Though we have passed
We never have met
You still are in my prayers

And the prayer that I pray
Is today is the day
That salvation comes to your house

Yes not only you
But your family too
All and more that is allowed

Yet you must do your part
Which is open your heart
Then my friend you will see

The truth the whole truth
As Christ welcomes you
To share in His riches for eternity

But there's the other side
If without Him you die
There is eternal separation

You won't be with the King
Or somewhere in between
But burning in the fire of damnation

There is no worse lot
That I can think of
Hell's fire isn't half as scary

Than when God's had enough
And takes away His love
All else is secondary

And that's why I pray
For lost souls everyday
Since my heart has been open to see

That the rest of your life
Is a very long time
So choose wisely where you spend eternity

please catch me,
when you see me
fall...
it is merely a matter of
time...

sometimes i need to
cry, just like the rain that falls
on the metal roof.
