found him in mine thoughts
cherishing my drought
thirsty was my heart
pleasured was those parts
enhanced over joyed
gatherings discredited
hated and abated
misconstrued unseen unviewed
callus love unfound deluded
embraced unalloyed
enhanced with invisible cloy
Love of lavender
thirsty was my heart
pleasured was those parts
she found him
she saw him
she found him
and they both were lost

Musician's notes can sound unearthly powers,
Astounding hearers' eyes with blinding thunders.
The painter's brush can stroke insightful hours,
Surprising viewers' ears with deaf'ning wonders.
Presenting sounds unviewed and sights unheard,
The writer's pen can eyes and ears astonish.
Art's trinity is music, paintings, words;
Yet oft do artists' senses numb, admonish.
Rehearing sounds, musician's ears indict.
Reviewing sights, the painter's eyes confound.
Resenting words, the writer's senses spite.
Their art's at surface false, in truth profound.
So spite despite, for musing faults and flaws
Do grace disgrace with rousing earthly awes.

Trapped in the maze of life
A path in my view
Looking yet nothing is seen
Voices are yelling
Listening, I cannot hear a thing
Forces are pushing
Standing straight, I do not lean
I must break free
If I do what will be
Why can't I find my way
What can I do to get away
Organize the thoughts in my mind
Untangle myself from this web
Be calm and think to be freed
Then I will find what I need
Both body and mind are strong
What can be wrong
Facts are true but feelings confused
A mind half right
The problems left unviewed
This is wanted
Emotions left out of sight
They say let someone in
Anyone
A relative
A friend
Maybe they can mend
They cannot have what they seek
This battle must be fought alone
I will not be shown to be weak

I the stained glass panel
Impeccable by craftful hand
Adorned with the color of rainbow
Stand tall but unviewed
You my dear are like the sunlight rays
The starlight's twinkle
Yes
You are like the moonlight beams
You shine through my hue
Prisming my heart’s colors to illumination
Touching off Opalescent glass seen by all
For my soul now engulfed by thy beauty
Made perfect with thy light
