Amen
Nothing breaks my heart like seeing you in pain.
Lord, forgive me, so many blessings but I still complain.
Most of all, I hate the days you lose hope and come undone.
Darling, such little was lost, there's so much to be won.
I hope with all my heart that the home you seek, you find somewhere!
And wherever this place might be,
To God I pray there's peace and happiness there.
Oh look at the things your love does to me,
I begin to write a poem, it turns into a prayer.

Magic
You don't always get to say your piece
or do your thing.
But patience pays, let winter go,
wait for spring.
At a finer time, in a brighter place,
You'll have your turn,
Be much better prepared.
The universe has magic!
And so you'll see,
Everything you truly want...
is already meant to be!

Farewell!
I wish that the happiness that's evaded me
all these years,
Finds you, forgives you, and follows you...
Wherever you go.
And in doing so,
I hope that happiness,
Unlike unlucky me, stays with you,
And just like me, becomes forever yours.

Escape Velocity
You said it once,
You said it twice.
Spinning around in circles
Isn't for the wise.
More dead than alive I was but
I did what had to be done.
The door had to be shut,
With all my might, I had to run.
I hope now you know,
That hearing is believing!
Darling, you can't ask someone to go,
And then blame them for leaving.

In the Guise of Empathy
Pursuing curiosity
is risky business.
What you find,
may taste like rewards
or sting like regrets.
You say you're a seeker
and wish to know...
But, darling.
Even if I told you
all of secrets,
you wouldn't be able to
put them together
to feel like I do...
Would you?

Win or Lose
I loved you
even before I saw you
You lived in me
and I lived for two.
Sweet sixteen now,
"Mama, I like that boy", you say.
So I'll tell you now
what my mama to me one day.
"Love yourself first,
for you are yours,
little one, now and forever.
Don't lose yourself
trying to win someone over".

All of the world's
treasures
are
trash
if you haven't got love
to go with 'em.

Trust with Caution
For silver tongues

Procrastination? Check!
I'd like to save more and
spend less.
It's about time I do more and
say less.
I promise myself longer walks and
shorter naps.
I vow to choose healthier bites and
fewer snacks.
Maybe I won't light up another lung cannon,
or gulp down magic liquid
with suck reckless abandon.
I'll keep an open mind and a guarded heart.
Be a good girl and play the part.
But this misbehaved voice in my head,
it had to ask!
"How about tomorrow?"
~CC
Lunatic
Oh! How many things I'd tell you.
So much I'd have to say!
If only you could hear me,
Rotten luck! You're too far away.
The waning-waxing cold blue devil,
you are, it's true.
But I like being alone, together
with you.

Superlative
It was
The best day of my life.
And it made me incredibly sad
to have to give up all hope
of ever a day any better
than
It was.
The best day of my life.
