THOSE CLOSEST
Your members of family and friends...
Love and respect which never ends.
So, hold high with all your cherish
Those closest before they perish...
For life eventually descends.
Some are there from the beginning...
Watching you in all your spinning.
Others enter your life later.
All are there to make it greater...
Ensuring that you are winning.
Those assisting in your raising...
Encouraging you of amazing.

I want my best friend
I want his warmth and broad shoulders,
I’ve cried on them so many times
but tonight I don’t reach out to him
asking to dry my eyes.
I want his bellied laugh,
and the gentle way he breathes
I want his arms around me
as he helps me drift to sleep
I want his playful comments,
cause they’re funny and they’re kind
I

We Are Closest To There
Father showed us how to care
Clarity of stream
How I have seen
God brightness peaks through
I could not ignore I just knew
God carefully shown
Heaven our home
A reason to gather
Has always been laughter
God is always working
Our heart did the giving
Virtuous sight
Let there be light
This truth was given
To make us listen
God raised our bar
To show who we are
God cured

The Closest I'Ll Come To Suicide Is Smoking Alone
A faint scarlet glow
behind me
Allows me to see
the lines
Supporting me
Beyond the lines
Silhouettes fall
from the sky
Creating a gentle
rhythm to match
the winds
I’ll follow this piper
wherever he leads
A small patch of sea
below
Calm in the turn
Only to awake
in the undertow
Rippled glass
Flowing
Calls to me
Silent sirens sing
for me to fall
A slower decent
Glows

Losing the Ones Closest To You
There’s a reason “lose”
Is inside of the word “close,”
'Cause even you can
Lose all the very people
Who are the closest to you.

My heart is my closest companion
Aside my shadow
My heart is my
Closet friend
A Friend that never dies
A friend in all and for all
A friend that speaks
Always
It never silent
A friend in all and for all
Aside my shadow

And feel my concise

Closest Thinh In My Mind
Closest Thing In My Mind
What in my mind can be closest thing;
Piano playing and choir which will sing;
Facial expression,
Great impression;
God in His presence always did bring.

Broken: Closest Suicide Attempt
Two broken eyes slumped back in his head,
His mind escaped from the war,
Numb gently cradled all the man that he was,
As he floated on down to the floor,
Then, a distant dim light beckoned for him,
A light at the end of the hall,
He knew he had to go to this light,
So he got to his knees

You Are Closest
you are closest
to me
more than the heart, nerve, veins
you are closest
to me
more than the thought in written, spoken, unspoken
you and me
both are
fragrance of flower
unseen but all lover can feel

Loneliness, My Closest Friend
Loneliness
It’s not always bad
Sometimes it hurts
Sometimes it’s sad
Loneliness
My closest friend
calls me so often
I wish it would end
Loneliness
There are times that I like you
When I can focus on myself
Where I can stay true
But loneliness
Who am I kidding
I let you in often
...
Too often
...
Everyday
Loneliness
I have things I yearn to do
People I want to meet
Places I have to see
Loneliness
Would

Why'M I Closest To Heaven Whenever I'M Going Through Hell
I woke up to what's left of late last night
And poured it down the drain
All my demons sit laughing to themselves
As I swear it off again
My heart's still steady beating, as if I ran a race
My lips miss the feeling, of the whiskeys warm embrace
Why'm I closest to Heaven whenever I'm going through hell
Why do

Closest
Faith and trust go hand in hand,
One without the other cannot stand,
I heard it once, than heard it twice,
All in the same day, just two different times,
I keep going back to the word you said,
Lord, without trusting you, my faith is dead,
I go back to the memory of us walking through the yard,
The loss is

Death: Man's Closest Ally
O Death, thou art man’s closest ally!
From his mother’s womb thou hath banded with him;
thou were there when he exhaled his first breath.
Even than his veins, thou art nearer to him.
Surrounded by thousand mirrors, he sees thou not,
yet thou art more visible to him even than his own flesh.
Incessantly, he strives to free himself from

The Closest Bond
So is it heart or is it soul
That creates the closest bond
And what role has mind in its conception?
And oh, the sacred fire! What is its coal?
God’s pleasure in no deception,
False flattery, or someone conned!
Both heart and soul can be mislead,
The mind imperfectly grokking
And yet new baby bonds announce their
