On wings I saw free
happily floating above
keeping watch of flock
Winds come blowing,
I sit and listen
To the birds humming.
As all things start crumbling,
I'll wait then.
I see trees,
With falling leaves,
And the sun
Seeking to abandon.
Blinded by the blowing wind,
My vision has dimmed,
And my life trimmed.
Once I'm done,
The webs I've spun
Will fall one by one,
Till there's none.
I won't run,
For all things I've done.
More fortunate than some,
I've had my fun.
To those I'll miss,
I'll give a kiss,
As I wait for the abyss.
My Lord, with open arms I come to thee.
This world so brutal I plead for freedom.
A victim of a plague stealing my soul.
My Lord, with open arms I come to thee.
My days and night shaking in constant fear.
Trust is not there anymore to no one.
My Lord, with open arms I come to thee.
This world so brutal I plead for freedom.

Judge not
What one seeks
Seek to express
Rebirth
Knowledge
Growth
Truth
Bliss
Joy
Love
Judge not
One's challenges
Weaknesses
Pain and suffering
Judgement lacks acceptance
Instead with open arms wide
Hug acceptance
Embrace one's growth
Embrace one's expansion
With open arms wide
The burning flame of love surrounds
Embrace the purity of love
As you receive
It shall deliver
I came to you with open arms
fell in love with all your charms
before they turned a witch's brew
with open arms, I came to
passion can hide the truth of things
an evil heart and what it brings
when hearts of light and dark collide
the truth of things passion can hide
though short and brief our love was fire
we escaped the world with our desire
between our hands, we held our grief
our love was fire, though short and brief
love can be a boiling kettle
where ebbs and flows can unsettle
making lovers too blind to see
a boiling kettle, love can be
you offered me a damaged love
wormwood filled at the mercy of
it fell apart for me to see
a damaged love, you offered me

heaven welcomes me
on angles wings i soar
keeping watch of kin
there waiting for me
on the other side
i like to think
of all those
before me
who have passed
and one day
will line up
by the light
with open arms
to welcome me

Tears running down a saddened face
Being wiped away by a loving hand.
A hug, a kiss, a warm embrace;
These can change a frown to a smile.
What power we possess without realizing it.
The future of lives we can mold
By showing love and understanding
When our arms are open to hold.
I couldn't believe you just walk out in last trimester of my pregnancy
How could you arent you sorry?
Leave me to worry and stress daily
I hope you bury yourself in misery
Don't you know i couldn't take care of her financially?
It came a day i had to give her up to another family
Hardest decision and pain ive ever felt
Watch my beautiful baby girl going home without me
I felt so angry so mad such a failure as a mother
I hated you with all the toxins in the world
But as i grew to know this family with open arms and unconditional love for me
I was happy i gave life to a family who could not carry
I loved you from the very moment i knew you
My beautiful baby girl no matter where you are at in the world i will always love you.
Always have a special place in my heart open adoption
I say bye to 2019, embraced 2020 ~ open arms

I
Fell in
Open arms
Waiting for me
Care that I longed for
Trusting my dreams
Awakened

Light

R-eceive my wish with open arms,
O-ctober tenth early morn;
D-awn has already broken
A-t the day when you were born.
L-ong night has just turned
I-nto warm morning light;
E-ventide has passed by, beacon is burning bright.
C-old chill makes you think
O-f the rising sun above;
M-ist and haze disappear
B-ecause of the Father's love.
A-mount of mirth is big,
L-arge size of fun you feel;
I-n your heart you savor
C-omplete joy and thrill.
E-cstasy is truly brought to the one huge occasion;
R-apture is also carried to your birth celebration.
P-ure delight and pleasure
A-re caused by the event;
M-uch happiness it brings
O-nly to the shining moment.
R-egard of mine is gladly given,
C-heers to your feminine charms;
A-llow my greeting to come on time, receive my wish with open arms.

J-ust feel the Father's hand,
E-xpect His constant love;
A-llow Him to bring and give
N-othing but warmth from above.
I-n third day of December,
T-he beacon starts to rise;
H-e's up there to wipe the teardops in your eyes.
S-un's rays in the blue sky
A-re shining in pink or red;
L-et them make you glow
A-s you rise up from bed.
M-orning has just broken,
E-xposing its bright view;
R-aindrops will never fall,
O-pen arms will hug you.
"open arms"
with open arms I see you
for all that you are
for all that you do
I thank Heaven above for you
stand close and see
my kiss so true
my love that grew
with open arms anew
embrace these words that shine
from stars above to the end of time
