Rising Sun
The darkness cannot stay for longFor when the sun returns it no longer belongsShadows are now replaced with lightStreet lamps turn off as the moon hidesThe rising sun begins a new dayAll the darkness fades awayFeelings of blessing come our wayGreeting us as we rise up today.

Camera
I am a cameraI am solid, weightedWith smooth and ruff edges. I am uninspired and neglected.I would like to be photographing all the beautiful scenes. I am connected at the soul.I dream of traveling to exotic locationsCapturing every new memory and place.I worry about not slowing down. I like for others to be inspired by […]

Dear younger self
Dear younger self I have been dying to tell you… Your seat may feel emptyYou lived your life in a boxYou feel at times small as a peanutGreen trees make you feel calmYou hate the sound of an alarm clockYour mind is full of cottonYour life feels like a video game.Your lips are the envelope […]

The energy you once gave comes in waves.You look in the mirror but a ghost is all you see.Your shadow runs from your presenceIt no longer chases you. Your so far from […]

Distorted Reality
Things not as they should beChasing shadows in front of meThe fog is too thick to seeThe reality I find myself presently. The cards crashing downWhat was so carefully set into place.The world upside downTake a seat and find a space. Distorted realityYou are all I’ve knownThe mirror doesn’t reflect backThe person that is shown. […]

Then and Now
Don’t sail away from meDon’t fade into the crowdDon’t turn the pageDon’t burn that photographCome home where I will be waiting for you.Only a short distance left to go. My memories of us are fading tooDon’t let me lose you againJust stuck in the middle of now and thenDon’t want to see an end. Don’t […]
