Lenita Auvenshine Poem
The clock still ticks on the living room wall
It’s dark feelings I recall
Death somehow changed it all
I no longer feel it is my fault
I learn to let go of pain and grief
Stop asking why this happen to me
I never will really understand
How evil resides in a god fearing man
Fate has led me down many a road
Something pushing and pulling me along
But I believe after all these years
That the scars will remain inside me sealed
A stamp on my soul for which I know
God himself sheds some tears
I am not as forgiving as he
For many demons had hunted me
I somehow feel there is someone else
I can help as I have myself.

Lenita Auvenshine Poem
There's a gun on the floor
A man's body in the hall
his daghter that lived next door
is the one that made the call
neighbors gather on the lawn
they want to see it all
the old man lived alone
his name they can,t recall
violence in our cities
runs rapid like a dog
seems to be no justice
no ones on the job
is there need to wonder
why some feel the need
to find a real strong rope
and hang villians from a tree
there's a child in the dumpster
she had been there for a week
the body of the youngster
had been severaly beat
her dad is put on trial
for god and all to see
but the jury could care less
if he was a victim himself
violence in our cities
runs rapid like a dog
seems to be no justice
no ones on the job
is there need to wonder
why some feel the need
to find a real strong rope
and hang villians from a tree

Lenita Auvenshine Poem
February 15, 2012
Fate lent its hand in our story
we both have so much to tell
as old circumstances were ending
new convictions remove the veil
so intense nevertheless rewarding
when you came into my life
I preferred the opportunity to show you
My affections not based on terms nor a lie
you now experience anguish and its my burden
while I tried to be that flickering light
please stop all the anxiety and tears
Walk tall there's nothing left to fear
You’re free without coercion of reconciliation
this pain will ease as time fades within the years
Take back freedom the power to live
Beware some days will still be uphill
But baby hold your head high
cause something inside won't be denied
as you Discover who you are again
please recall me as a friend
it's time to end the grief
our passion was out of desperate need
to feel alive and on fire
to know we matter to someone for awhile
take back the freedom the power to live
beware some days will still be uphill
but baby hold your head high
cause something inside can't be denied
as you discover who you are again
please recall me as a friend
