They say the soul is immortal And God present everywhere That the soul is part of God Then show yourself, if you dare If not, don’t tell me its okay That we will meet again some day Don’t tell me its meant to be That all created must decay Let me sit here by yourContinue reading “Good Bye”

Today I am made up of salt and tears I can look within and see my fears I walk into the ocean wondering why As I melt away, the ocean is I I burn up bright with hope and desire Just like the light of a raging fire I sit in the flames wondering whyContinue reading “It is I”

With each verse I write, I leave With each verse You read, I return With each leaving and returning I rejoice, I mourn With each waning moon, I long for more With each full moon, I am complete In this waning and waxing I am empty, yet replete With each breath that leaves, I dieContinue reading “Circles”
