The Dissonance

This is what I don’t understand How can I walk this out When I see no place to land? This is where I can’t comply My emotions inspire passion But my heart tends to lie I have to decide who I’m doing this for Is it me or is it Him? Is it “and” or…

The days?How long before I’m only a phase?Before you’re full of contempt and resent my teary face?Because life’s never been easyAnd people lack grace Do you really and truly love me?Do you have compassion to spare?Do you care?About my thoughts, my heartWould you ever even dare?Because…

The Cure

I am my mood My mood is me Speaking Whispering So softly A kiss of the wind A gentle breeze A song I sing So longingly Stillness settles What mood is this? Content to stand Or kneel Or sit I have a hunger Of this I’m sure But how I find it That’s the cure…
