I Am Strong

They tell me I am strong.  I don’t feel strong with my tear streaked face.
I feel………… misplaced
                                                  Lost in space…..
                                                                                               erased 

They tell me I am strong.  I don’t feel strong with my heart so heavy and torn.
I feel…………..deformed          
                                                 Forlorn………..
                                                                                              Unborn

Thoughts of Our Time

A little silver ring
                       from a bubble gum machine 
on my finger all this time
                      lets the world know you‘re still mine
 fifty cents bought my heart
                        with kisses in the dark
 the sun on my face
                     in a warm embrace
it’s a good life my love
                     happiness circles above
 below and around us
                   sweet tenderness drowns us
 whispers soft and low
                   heart to heart soul to soul

For You

The glowing moon is low and full….… countless stars shimmer in the ink dark night…and I sit my love and mourn for you

My heart is heavy full of loss…..countless tears shimmer in the ink dark night….and I sit my love and mourn for you

Will I ever see you again, I ask aloud…no answers come in the ink dark night….So I sit my love and mourn for you

I ask the heavens why?  ….but no answers come in the ink dark night…. So I sit my love and mourn for you

Alone

I talked to your daddy today,
he said felt he’d lost his way. 
He said no one except me knew how he felt.

Through tears he said,
I know we got to go on but it’s so hard.
I whispered I know, I couldn’t said it better myself

I miss you so much -  more than words can say
You’re on my mind and in my heart every day.
I go through the motions of life,
but I don’t know which way to go.

Where do I turn?  You are gone, 
I feel lost and alone!
You are gone. 
I feel lost and alone.

Love

Sometimes I think I am going crazy, 
      I look around sometimes its so hazy
                                                   and nothing looks the same
I don’t know where I should go, 
        Do I trust the ones I don’t know?
                                                   sometimes all I feel is the shame

Who are we to question why
                   who gets to live who gets to die? 
                                                   Who we love and for why? 

 Love is a force that cant be stopped
Like the player’s feet who carried the man
that carried the ball that couldn’t be dropped 
 Love is a force that cant be stopped
