Eyes See Truth

The walls absorb her strength 

energy is slowly drained

As the very breath becomes shallow 

And she succumbs to the numbness surrounding her..

good is meant to happen here 

Peaceful melodies wafting through the air 

Beautiful decor 

Cozy couches chairs and fancy water bottles await her

Thought time and care putting this room together to help one relax through the moments

Worried eyes see through it

Battle of the mind is raging 

she Quiets her fears 

Resting in the confidence her mind knows 

Inner strength continuing to grow her..

Tell Me..

I wish many things 

I wish to know what I don't..

I dream many more..

What could be 

What should be

What will be

Strangely sweet how you know what you know without really knowing..

Even stranger 

How you invade my thoughts 

Control my emotions 

Live in my heart 

Could I lose myself to just one kiss?..

Yet we don't exist

What are we 

Who are you

What am I

Vulnerable&lost is how I feel yet grateful

I wish you would tell me..

Wears it Well..

Only what he lets them see

Is what they believe to be truth..

Or is it only that they choose to see what feels safe?..

Nothing is as it should be

How should it be exactly?..

He can't let them down 

Questions loom

Answers lost

Pressures build

His smile is tight

His eyes are dull

The shine lost in the turmoil of pretend 

Yet He speaks the right words 

His actions mirroring those of all things good 

He can't let truths be known he feels alone 

He lets no one in as the day fades..

Charade continues

Yet Truth is blaring

No denying it..

It's another day 

Mask in place 

His smile saying he's fine 

His eyes guarded 

Much ground to cover 

Many moments to live..

The sun is shining 

As this hero steps into his shoes 

And he wears them well..

Strange Feelings..

All is good

So it seems..

Laughter chats and peaceful moments turning 

Changing 

As we get closer to the place we dread

It's a lonely path..

Heart racing as we step through the doors

Fighting fears as they start to suffocate 

Muscles tense

Breath

Nightmares buried roar to life..

Quiet tears slipping out

Looking for warmth in cold sterile spaces 

Plastic smiles

Drowning out sad words floating through the room

Shutting out sad faces of strangers all looking for hope..

Seconds are an eternity 

Waiting for good news only please..

Always waiting..

Always hoping..

Forever Love

From the very first glance

It was different

Eyes connected 

jolted - as if hit by lightning 

Felt by both through&through

something stirred deep within their soul

like they had known many moments together 

Yet how could it be

These two strangers..

Desperate to connect but lost for words..

They keep walking 

Further and further from one other's lives..

Never to forget this moment 

knowing something has changed within them..

Sweet moments lost 

never to be..

Eyes Of Babes

They are the magic we lose sight of..

Watch..learn..feel 

Talk with them 

Hear what they say 

Live in their moments

Their zeal for all things 

Learn what you've forgotten 

Feel their passion 

It's contagious..

Grateful&blessed&loved

So peaceful to realize I'm Wonderfully tired

And it is good 

And every moment is worth reliving...

WHAT IF...

What if..

Gentler love was felt..

Kinder words toppled out..

Sweet smiles caught their eye..

open hearts surrounded them..

Warm arms embraced them..

What if..

They knew they were beautiful from the inside out regardless..

We shared our courage..

Taught hope..

Walked alongside them in the darkest moments

Never giving up..

Would they dare to live then

Believing it's possible ?

Leaving behind despair fear anger self-hate suicide..

What if..
