His Love Swung Low
His love swung low
Gathering me up
Leaving nothing behind
Broken pieces and busted edges
Acknowledging my need to heal
When The Tears Fell
When the tears fell the first time
I wiped them as soon as they touched my cheeks
When they fell again
I wasn’t as quick to tend to the tears
Fire Away
To increase my speed
Away
From you
From words
That assail
And hit
Striking hot
I won't return
Never again
Constriction
It hurts more every day
The tightness
The grasp
The hold
Wondering when it will end
If it will end
The Road Home
Maybe there was something more
Someplace where my mind could rest
Where I wouldn't feel such constant flux
A place where sleep would come easily
But those roads lead to nothing I wanted
Flashback
Time seemed to pass so slowly
Yet so quickly and I begged for more time
It happens almost daily
One touch will prompt me
Even stop me in my tracks
Meet Me
You told me of your dreams
And I told you everything
About joy and hurt and love gone dim
You only smiled and pulled me near
I still love that you were the one
Who could chase away my fear
Spaces
I still walk down lonely corridors hoping to find you on my next turn.
You are never there waiting for me.
I hear you whispering my name more often than I care to admit.
Reckless Mercy
No more hurt
Or spewed hatred
I will return nothing but love
From this day forward
Reckless mercy has taught me how to love you
The Great Pretender
About people hiding behind their masks - a great pretender, a person who pretends to be someone they are not, hinders themselves of true happiness.
Behold
We sometimes associate certain places with a specific event in our lives. Behold such great childhood memories that never fade.
Utter
Life is in flux
Constantly moving
Changing
The ebb and flow
Whether I like it or not
