she has a rainbow disposition
personality of a confident woman
her ideas are eclectic and electric
she likes herself now
alone but not lonely
reflecting and reflective
brilliant mind, sharp theories
she likes herself now
she needs no one’s approval
standing on her convictions
developing her self-fulfilling intensity
she likes herself now
silence is her friend
she leans into it, gleaning spiritual favor
her guides are proud of her
she likes herself now
She's never loved broken love poems,
but now she writes them.
She's always feared swollen heads and broken tones,
yet now she finds she fights them.
Despite her mother's devotion,
she's forgotten the taste of oxytocin -
broken bonds within the unspoken, spoken.
Now emotion runs frozen
underneath hollow motions.
These days she spends her time playing theologian.
Here's my question:
No one cares to know someone like that,
do they?
Yesterday,
I saw a girl
That looked like you.
It took my breath away.
I wanted to say
To her;
What I long to say to you.
I almost said it aloud;
I love you.
A complete stranger.
I just stared at her.
Later,
In a coffee shop,
On campus,
I saw a young girl
That reminded me
So much, of you.
Her hair, her eyes, Brown,
And beautiful.
The way she fingered her pen,
Pressing it thoughtfully
Against her lip,
Eyes raised to one side,
Head resting on one palm,
Hair, cascading like a waterfall;
Shimmering, pooling,
Onto her open book.
I wanted to be that book.
I wanted to be with you.
For a moment,
I was.
Speak to me now
that you are not here
tell me all the things
I need to hear
answer my questions
calm my fears
come to hug me tonight
tell me that I'm dear...
You made me feel ugly
you made me feel sad
you made me feel lonely
you made me feel bad
you made me feel unlikable
you made me feel like crap
you made me feel unwelcome
you made me feel mad
So speak to me now
that you are gone
find the way to make me
hear your words
show somehow
that I had your love
tell me that it wasn't in vain
that I came into this world.

You sit there rocking,
no more people talking,
drifting with the wind across the grain.
It’s peaceful like you planned it.
No one make’s demands it’s
quiet now and every day’s the same.
It’s a shame
that something pure and free,
became a ball and chain tied to misery.
Like an island separate from the land,
the waters made you miss the life you planned.
So you sit there rocking,
the voices that once talked to you have all…
withered away.
Was it the hardness
or something in your veins
that never let hold the things you own?
Just like you sip black coffee
but hate the taste,
you block the world away
but hate to be alone.
Such a shame
that something meant to be,
blinded you to what you could have seen.
Now you know
what you were looking for
was just a winding road toward a closing door.
So sit there rocking
with no more people talking,
drifting with the grain...
whichever way the wind blows.
Ref: The Clover Tune, Mandolin Orange
"Over the clouds from up above"
"Moon in the sky softly creeping"
"So lonely for only your love"
"I lie awake hardly sleeping"
The night eclipsed the light of day
Over the clouds from up above
On the lonely bed where I lay
I yearn for your love, like a dove
I miss your love, I used to have
I cry a tear on my pillow
Over the clouds from up above
Sky's like a colorless rainbow
For, dark is the glow of the night
Without the amber of your love
Somber sky eclipses the light
Over the clouds from up above
*Quoted lines are from the song "Even Now"
by Nana Mouskouri
Through a blustery wind in winter
Arm in arm we go
The snow is falling, we don't care
We love each other so
Finally we're together
We've waited patiently
And now the time has gone to "since"
No longer "hopefully"
The days were long and lonely
The nights were short yet sweet
For that is when I dreamed of you
But still was incomplete
I wanted to be your blanket
To cover you so warm
To wrap myself around you
To conform to your form
I stayed back in the background
Not saying much at all
Not seeing me I would see you
And later would recall
The image in my memory
Kept hidden in its place
But now at last can tell you things
As I look into your face
It's now dark because she sleeps
Greedy Loss round about us creeps
Snatching souls, and thus into homes seeps
This shadow of death and there weeps
A child, a father, whose heart into sorrow now steeps
So sudden, so awfully came this slumber
The reality that she has to be six feet under
Only this thought causes the heart to shudder
The thought of facing each day without her
Our friend, our teacher, our mother
With unwilling hearts, we drag our feet to move on
Pressing together, despite feeling forlorn
Though she was part of our dream, Lord knows how torn
Asunder are our hopes; our tomorrows, will they be born?
Lord, crown us with courage, from our ashes beauty do form
From where else can our help then come?
For we already weak, then the strongest warriors are some
Which now lay fallen and we feel so lost, undone
So we look up for strength as first onward we crawl, walk some, and one day maybe even run
We trust the Sun of Righteousness to sweep away Darkness, and on that day again to wake her up
And when later never comes
Where do hearts go
Where do passions flee
Are they gone once and for all
In a silence that’s wretched
Do they disintegrate
Or do they sink to depths
Never to resurface
When later never comes
Do tears suddenly dry up
As if they never were
Do palpitations fade away and die
In a dreadful suffocating silence
When later never comes
Where do hearts go
And passions flee

I call you over that you won't come by
you're kind of lonely and you're acting shy
What do I have to do to look you straight in the eye
Come here girl
Your inner beauty is so shines out
There's a error about you so silent
Your voice so sweet and soft and low almost quiet
Come here girl
Come here girl let's pray together
Come on girl let's talk to God together
Come here girl God knows our hearts
We would rather be saved then lost
And before we take our last breath
As we passed our trials our tests
Come here girl
Come here girl
Come here let me look into the eyes of your souls windows I digress

NOW I AM ALONE NOW GOD'S DAUGHTER HAS GONE BACK HOME-
Now I am alone now God's daughter has gone, she's gone back home to God
I held her hand it was just a greeting;
I held her heart it was love
I held her force was her spirit enthralled;
Ever so trilling I was at her beck and call;
Oh, how I love her;
O' how I loved her;
and yet now she's gone;
O' how I love her;
Oh, how I loved her;
She's died now I am all alone;
I had embraced her;
Yes, I did face her;
She was the one of my dreams;
But God saw it His due process purpose;
Was to bring her back home to Him;
Now I am alone now God's daughter has gone, she's gone back home to God
Oh, how I love her;
O' how I loved her;
and yet now she's gone;
O' how I love her;
Oh, how I loved her;
She's died now I am all alone;
So slowly God's daughter;
I am now alone, lonely God's daughter;
Away, flown back home you have gone;
Now I am alone now God's daughter has gone, she's gone back home to God
O' if time could be still I would yet still have you here;
With me

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2021©
Through my brown eyes looking upon Heaven I spy the blue horizon Paradise and My spirit soul of mine I am waiting to find another true love
So I walk not at all toward the person's probable sites
Not engaging nor observing ascertaining a possible wife
For God wants us not to be alone
I am alone you're not alone knowing my concerns
I'm alone yet not alone for now God is the woman in my heart, soul and mind

There are moments when I wish
I thought like a very young child;
No past,
present or future.
Only now
and not now.
Time; meaningless, painless.
No yesterday; no dark memories
waiting in the hidden corners
of the few fond ones.
Silent, predatory.
No today; no mistakes to make,
words misunderstood;
by accident or calculation.
Bruising, bloody.
No tomorrow; no roads ahead
with twists and turns;
demons around each bend.
Dangerous, lonely.
Only now
and not now.
Time; meaningless, painless.
Now the end is near
Covid now is in second year
Still we live with the dread and fear
We're promised that the end is near
That freedoms on the way we hear...
Where do you go to my lovelies
When all the instructions are read
Do the boundaries astound you
Do you lie much longer in bed?
Are you lonely keeping distance
Have kids eager to be in class
Missing hugs with special loved ones
And loathe wearing a facial mask?
If one lives in an apartment
At least you can view the starlight
Those with a house and a garden
Can be out by day and by night.
When the weather is against you
Are you at a loss what to do
Do you get weary of reading
And watching television too?
Have you done so many puzzles
That you have now become brain dead
Does memory stray to old days
In dreams of the good times ahead?

Upon a breathless moment in time,
A thousand hells do exist;
Within a paralyzed paradigm
A love is lost in the mist.
Where hearts are broken forever,
Amidst the never ending now;
As anguished sorrows sever
And tears break the bough.
A twinkling second of love lost,
Like mirages melting of mind;
A neglected nuance in frost
Caged memories are confined.
In an instant love is crushed,
And a lonely moment hushed.
