TrustHow can True trust Faith when lies begin to escape,
You are the reason why I hide my face with a Smile or a Cape,
Because I can't forget what you Took and what you keep Taking,
My Heart keeps on breaking daily, that is why I am Inhaling,
These Drugs I Breath,
I just can't Believe,
Life is full of...

Come Back Colorful Butterfly Faeriecolorful butterfly faerie flew into the garden today
The marigolds, lilies and lilacs all leaned her way
Wanting a favor, a glimpse, a look at her gown
She had a terrific personality, and no kind of frown
She is such a beauty! The elves and dwarfs did agree.
Tomato worm never saw her; he was watching TV
The radishes and carrots...

SynchronicityLooking for my home,
As I roam the realm,
My conscious at the helm,
An overwhelming experience rushes over me,
The feeling of ecstacy,
I'm starting to see the synchronicity,
Feeling energetically charged,
I barge into the connection,
Feeling the affection,
Enjoying every second,
A blessing in disguise,
As I rise in myself,...

FLOWERS THAT CAN FLY
May we be blessed when we see a luna moth or a butterfly
(at the risk of sounding lyrical)
to be reminded how life is made up
of so many tiny little miracles

Flight of a ButterflySlowly walking the path of life,
winging with challenge, joy, and strife.
I came upon a butterfly,
floating, flittering in the sky.
So lightly gliding through the air,
I came to a stop, just to stare.
Created with such symmetry,
designed to live a life so free.
Like a butterfly’s flight in wind,
harder at first than in the end.
Life is seen by our...

Therapy Sessions**Therapy Session**
Some people insist that a demon exists within all of us.
A rapist is nothing more than a thief,
And it's clear that some public defenders
Don’t have more intelligence than their clients.
Remember, you are not obligated to serve as a juror in every case.
With that understanding, creating a mental trend becomes straightforward.
It's astonishing...

LOVE AND LIGHTLove you shine day and night, sending your light into our thoughts.
Spreading your love with words, that sound kind and have some thought.
Like a director in a movie, your words echo with power, like a bird singing near the window.
That try to direct the listeners with the power of your voice, making all...

In a room with four walls, where light dies like a trapped butterflyIn a room with four walls, where light dies like a trapped butterfly,
stands a mirror, a glass doll, with silver lashes that lie beautifully,
it whispers to me that I am enough, that my shadow dances, that I am not lost,
with sweet words, poisoned honey, telling me I have purpose, that I'm not behind,
that the world...

In Stars AboveYou left this world a better place
Your soul is purest light solid gold
No longer concerned with human race
Up above beyond the earthly trolls
White wind blows in your gentle kiss
Butterfly wings remind me of you
In red heart it’s you we miss
As we sit staring at sky black or blue
In stars above you thrive my love
No lavender...
