The Power Within You

The sun has set

But it's not time for bed yet

The rain is still falling

And I hear the night calling



I think of the sun

Where it is now, are people having fun?

While many here prepare to go to bed

Elsewhere upon daylight's beam do…

Never Lose Hope (For Boston)

What can I possibly say?

Nothing I could do will take the pain away

Such senseless violence was wrought today

How can we keep hate at bay?



In times like these, it's easy to lose hope

Listen To The Rain

It's bleak and misty

Been raining on and off for days

Depression threatens to take hold

My Plea

Up, down, and all around

I've been looking all day

But my sanity is no where to be found

There's so much I have to say

But the words won't come, to my dismay



So isolated, feeling cut off from those I love

Frustrated and just at my wits…

My Soul Speaks

Thoughts jumble together within my mind

Tangled in thick yarn

Unable to separate them

Wanting to break them free

So that perhaps then you will see

 

The words are there

At the tip of my tongue

If only I could make a connection

Between my mouth and my mind

Perhaps then an explanation you would…
