Missing

Missing
Heart soul mind
Missing talking
Late nights
Early mornings
Road trips
Nola gold
Park pebbles
Walking off
The earth with
Junior brown
Fedoras suspenders
Grape soda
Red snapper

Why?

Why?

Why did you
Come
Into my life, letting
Me trust

You
Woke me up
From lost ages.
But you
Created
A lie. Stole
From my
Heart a piece
Of light
With lies
And
Shame
On you
For breaking the
Ties that
Bind. Love tossed
Away like
Flowers in the
Wind. Why did
I help, trust
And care? Because
That's who
I
Am and you
Are not.

Hello friend

Hello friend

Hello friend
Why do I call
You that?
You are someone

On whom I
Can depend.
You treat
Me as an
Equal.
You like me
For me.
You are not
Ashamed to
Be around me.
You stick
Up for me.
And when I
Do something
Dangerous,
You tell me
about it.
You listen
When I need
To talk.
Thank you, Friend

Reaching

Reaching

Reaching for the sky
I want to touch a cloud
Reaching for the sky
I want to touch a star

Reaching for the sky
I want to scream real loud
Reaching for the sky
I want to go real far

The wish

The wish

The wish that I made
Did not fade
This peace I now feel,
No one can ever steal.

The light has shown
To me alone.
Someone came to me,
And set me free

To me

To me

To me
The sky is purple with pink polka dots
To me
The grass is orange with blue spots

To me
The tree is a mast on a great ship
To me
Picking a flower is like going on a wonderful trip
To me
Happiness is a child skipping by
To me
Being with you is like flying thru the sky

Tres Hermanas

Tres Hermanas

Oh sisters
Do not look so
Lonely
You three lovely

Ladies
Are together,
With your majestic
Rocky tops.
Oh sisters,
You are lucky.
You see what
Noone else
Sees.
Oh sisters,
You are forever
Together
