Rise Up and Above

 Give it up to the Lord

and pass on all the grief,

the sorrow is heavy 

but you need belief.


Take a deep breath

slowly and steadily exhale,

allow in the positivity

let the memories heal. 


Rise up and above

keep the head afloat, 

have faith in tomorrow

each day is a new start.


Close the eyes

and you'll be surprised

the visions of happiness

come from inside. 


Fate plays a role

that is ultimately true,

but the decisions are ours

to do what we do. 



Simple Reminder

 When I deny the connection

a loss comes over me, 

so I reach out for your hand 

in a dance by memory.


Earth or the heavens 

it matters little where you are, 

I spent the many passing years

denying what's in my heart.


These words are written

and left here for all time, 

as a simple reminder 

that your soul is joined 

with mine. 

Nightly Dreams

 

My soul stands agitated 

when I try to let you go, 

so I had to accept reality

of what my heart already 

knows.


It might be referred as twin flames

or referenced as a soulmate of hearts, 

the connection between two of us

will never ever part. 


You can deny it all you want, 

you can walk away from me, 

but I'll catch up to you 

in my nightly dreams. 



`



I raced to my bedside 

to hold my pillow tight, 

and dream once more

of you in the night. 


The years have passed on

and many have come and gone, 

but not one of them 

could even hum the words to 

our song. 


There is some connection

a heart and soul elective, 

where dreams are the tool

to bring you here to me. 


I'll pass on alone

because I can't let you go, 

you're a part of me 

even if all I have of you is dreams.

Tonight...

 It's amazing the joy you bring me, 

even though you're not here, 

I felt the love we share 

in the dreams that bring you near.


I'll try to explain it 

the feelings that I have, 

somehow just knowing you 

make this heart beat so fast.


The magic that we share, 

the feelings that you once cared, 

bring a sense of peace like a 

dream coming to life here.


There something that holds me to you,

like the mystery of the heavens 

that makes the sky above us 

a perfect kind of blue.


I felt it through the dream

it was a simplicity of sort,

a normal kind of day and 

you and I finding our way.


I shared with you my family

and a friend or two but it was 

the strangers that we talked with

that the magic of it came through.


It didn't fade away like many dreams do,

it stayed with me through the day and

brought a comfort and warmth that 

made this love of ours true.


I knew at that moment 

no matter where you are.

that you are always with me 

as if we were two colliding stars.


First came this explosion, 

then the distance set on in, 

from love to tears a journey

a story without and end.


This chapter might only include dreams,

and that is okay with me, 

for no one can take away the happiness

that the memories will bring. 


I'm not writing this chapter, 

I am grateful for the day 

and when I close my eyes tonight

it's in your arms I'll lay. 







My Forevermore

 I didn't want to wake up

I wanted to stay in your arms, 

hold your hand in mine as I

feel the beat of your heart. 


Many have come and gone

but only one prevails, 

the magic bursting from inside

froze the moment still. 


We shared the moments 

in a very common way, 

none of it made any sense

other than you and I found 

our way.


Our differences surfaced

and we accepted each and every one, 

for there is only one true love 

in this joy sent from above.


It was the simplicity 

a walk hand in hand

or maybe the sharing 

that comes without a plan. 


I kept reviewing the time 

when i saw you again and

felt the uniting of souls in

these dreams of mien. 


Welcome to this world 

where heart and souls bind, 

forever is not just a word

it's the story behind the rhyme. 


I needed to see you, 

to feel you once more, 

no matter where this journey leads

you'll be my forevermore.
