Dreams

Dreams

I dream of a time
so distant, so near

I dream of feelings 
yet to feel

I dream of a past
so close to the soul

I dream of love
wanting to hold

I dream of a place never seen
only to wake

Remember, tis only a dream

Sometimes

Sometimes I wonder where I fit 
What’s my role when will the pieces finally click?

Sometimes I can’t stop the doubt in my mind
What if? I ponder from time to time

Sometimes I don’t know who I am
Unable to find what I lost somehow

Sometimes it’s best I don’t lead
Give me a map to guide my way

Sometimes I’m OK but then
Sometimes I’m not even close to
Some of the times that came before.

Cry For Understanding

Please don’t look that way…
Please don’t speak that way…
Please don’t go the other way…
Please don’t avoid the issue….
Please don’t hold it like a treasure….it will never be…
Please don’t make it something special…..because it’s not…
Please don’t say it’s being absurd…it’s causing pain…

To know is to know when something isn’t right…
To love is to understand why
To understand is to listen to the heart
To listen is to hear
To hear is to care

See it from this way
Feel it from this way
How else?
Choose to…
Help to show…..give the words to understand….to take the insecurities away…
It’s tearing at the soul
