In My Heart

IN MY HEART

You brought me home; you tuck me in. You said this is the beginning, this is where life begins.
You promised me we would never part. But here I am alone in the dark, tears on my pillow pain in my heart; just remember we would never part.
But now you’re gone and I don’t know why, Daddy said you were up in the sky.
I don’t know why you had to go, after you promised you would never let go.
Tears on my pillow, pain in my heart – knowing you told me we would never part.
Now you’re gone and I’m all alone – just remember one thing mama I’m going to be strong. Because in my heart, that’s where you belong.
So, the journey is not over, and we will never be apart. Because we’ll always be together – here in my heart.

Somebody

SOMEBODY

You may not see the forest because of the trees.
You may not feel the heat because of the breeze.
Sometimes you may think you’re all alone.

BUT SOMEBODY.
They may not know you, but they do know God.

SOMEBODY.
May have seen you in distress, they don’t know you, but they do know GOD

SOMEBODY.
They don’t know you, but that’s okay they called on God and prayed for you.

SOMEBODY.
They may have seen the tears in your eyes, they may have seen you stressing as you walked by.

SOMEBODY.
Somebody bless you and you don’t know why, they don’t know you but they do know God.

SOMEBODY.
Prayed for you today.

SOMEBODY.

Fire and Rain

Fire and Rain

I see fire, I see rain, I see the stars, I feel the pain.

Since you walked out of my life, I see darkness where there used to be light
.
What I don’t understand, how did you leave me standing in quicksand.

I see fire, I see life, in the middle of the night – when the moon is my only light.

I see fire, I see rain coming down like buckets of pain. I don’t know what I’m going to do, but I’m going to just keep on – moving on.

Because I see fire, I see the rain, and nothing in this world is going to stop this pain.

Friendship

FRIENDSHIP

Some people may never see a volcano erupt.
Some people may never see Niagara Falls.
When God looked down and saw me standing all alone. He said I’m going to send you something that you will never forget.
It’s so rare – it’s not a diamond; it’s not a black pearl. It’s something that you will never forget.
IT’S CALLED FRIENDSHIP. MORE POWERFUL THAN RICHES AND WORTH MORE THAN GOLD.
Instant eternal friendship.
From sunset to Dawn.
When poetry meets poet.

Lost in the Game

LOST IN THE GAME

Have you ever been broken, week after week. As you stumble along with nowhere to be.
Have you ever been broken tattered and worn, as you stumble down the street with no shoes on.
Have you ever been broken, with nowhere to sleep. Strangers passing by and your eyes never meet.
So if you never been broken just stop and think, here is a lonely soul that got lost in the game.
Don’t look upon him with shame, reach out and give him a hand. Because he’s a lonely soul that got lost – in the game.
