Hearts rewind

the rhythmic sound of your heart breaks the silence that threatens me..

The beating ever steady 

The pulse of my being..

So deeply connected 

Our rhythm in tune.. 

uncovering the secrets

I discover you new..

in the quiet of my mind

Our hearts rewind..

our love is a place
with 

no space or time..

when it all looks different 

and we can’t find our way 

the beat of your heart will keep my spirit alive 

and I’ll always remember us this way..

Old made new..

Old made new

It is all new 

this town of old..

as the simple beauty began to unfold 

Seeing it with new eyes

It all came alive..

It’s vibrant, it’s real 

awakens my soul..

enjoying watching people living their lives

laughing and chatting or 

lost in their thoughts -

moments that matter 

all at a cost..

Even those less fortunate-

the ones that reside outside-

show a sense of belonging, 

adding beauty to the nitty gritty of the hard life they hold, 

but never told..

These magnificent old buildings - the secrets they house - so many lives passed through their doors with the many stories hidden inside 

They groan and moan, as if they are waiting to share with us, the lives unknown..

The past brings me present 

I am reminded once more

That home is always home 

no matter how I’ve grown 

and old becomes new as it filters through you..

when the sun goes down..

Each change 

is another goodbye..

Doesn’t mean I’ll fall or that I’ll cry

I have learned to read between the lines..

I feel you in the empty 

I hear you in the quiet 

You are the rhythm that moves me 

stills me..

while life happens 

we keep grooving to our sound 

creating our own kind of tempo 

changes may come 

changes may go 

I will not fear

together we stand tall..

I know what love is 

And 

When the sun goes down 

You & I will still be found..

Beauty & chaos

gentle words, harsh ones

loud words, quiet ones

all telling us something..

they are golden moments

Rare, precious and fleeting..

changing us - enlightening us -

parts of each one

making a whole..

freeing, growing and all knowing 

we won’t walk this way again..

are you present 

or just there..

really seeing and aware of all the love and care 

that fill the atmosphere..

It is that air that fills our lungs with love, joy and despair..

I choose to care 

I’ll let your chaos be my beauty..
