I see you
I see you sat
Cuddled up in your sleeping bag
I see you
My heart feels your sadness
Your loneliness

I hear you
I am here for you
Your not alone
Believe in me

Open your eyes
Give me your hand
Let’s find you somewhere
Warm and safe
Away from this space

A warm drink
And a meal
Someone to talk to
To trust

Hello I’m hear
Do not fear
Sheila Stafford Oct 2024
I look at you
the person I thought
I knew
Who’s now
Long gone

You sit amiss
of who I am
smile if I can
and hope to connect

A look
or glare
who is that
sat there

Some reaction
I need
my heart
seems to bleed

Iv lost who I am
my life has gone
yet I see you sat
staring out of the window

Just smile
for a little while
a conversation I need
do you know me
Sheila Stafford Oct 2024
Deep down
I know I tried
deep down
I know

Deep down
Inside
something stirs
an emotion
a feeling
unheard

Deep down
unseen
I feel
a need

Deep down
a hollow
emptiness
loss

What is this
deep down inside
Sheila Stafford Oct 2024
Is love
everything
Is love all we need
Is love
What it seems

Does love
give us happiness
or is it
just a fantasy
we need to believe

Tell me
is love real
does it heal
can it be defined

What does it mean
Can it be felt
Or reinvent
or maybe a consequent

Love is a word
but with no meaning
But it can be felt
a warmth
a nourishment

What is love ?
Sheila Stafford Oct 2024
To look
and see what beauty
is all around me

A flower
or tree
clouds moving
so slowly
above me

Water flowing
birds cheeping
the wind freely blowing
water droplets glowing

Just look and see
Sheila Stafford Oct 2024
Do you know
how much I cared
Did you know
the love I shared
Did you know
I was even there
Did you know ?
Sheila Stafford Aug 2020
Where are you
someone says you’ve gone
to spirt
I want to say good bye

Where are you
please let me know
your ok
because I cry

Where are you
did you know
that I cared
about you

Where are you
maybe I will see you
in my dreams
dancing smiling
are you happy now

Where are you
you will always
be with me
in my heart
and my soul

forever
