Glass heart






A heart of glass
 easily broken

Lips tender
beg to kiss

Eyes moist
tears holding on to fall

Soft skin
  wants to be touched

Fingers unsure
to reach for love

Bright soul
hiding behind dark walls

Loving someone
shouldn't be so hard.







Walk with me



Come, take a walk with me,
 side by side.
Walk through the woods
checking out blue sky

 Listen to the trees
as they bend with the wind
Watch the birds fly, land, then take off again.

I'll wait for you to feel safe
to share
What's been locked away
deep 
within
Your soul.

I'll be your strength
I'll hold you up
I'll help you see
Just how strong you are~
and Can be.

Let's walk 
with the sand under our feet
Let's feel free
Let fear go
No more holding on to what was
No more hiding away
No more crying for those who 
didn't stay.

Come, let's walk
side by side
let's feel ~
 Freedom 
floating with the wind
 dancing with stars
sleeping on a cloud
Feeling warmth from the sun

Let's walk,
You and I.
Let's fly 
where others won't go.
Let's just be,
You and me.
I'll hold you up,
~if you should stumble.
Though I know you won't
You were meant to be this strong
Take off the blinders and let your soul see.

Feel like taking a walk with me?


I am Lovable



I am Lovable
I live within a darkened room
deep below a well guarded castle. 
Outside my door stands Vulnerable.

Vulnerable carries a long sharp sword
he has named it pain.
Pain is the key~to everything.
No one has yet been able to get close to me
if they try
Pain is who they meet.

Beyond the room where Vulnerable resides 
 a spiral staircase is seen
We call her Love.
Miles and miles in length she is
and at the top
outside her door
~Lies, resides.

Lies covers the floor
ready to grab anyone untrue
Anyone who has managed to get past the gate.
The gate we call Trust.

Trust isn't easy to get past.
Trust is strong, runs deep, and holds true.
Trust stands behind desire.
Knowing Desire needs to be watched.

Desire is our drawbridge
she keeps all of us held tight within these walls
determined to keep us safe.
Trying to keep others out.
Desire has weaknesses she knows about.

Passion is the moat that circles these walls
Passion runs hot and cold and is the only one
able to sway Desire at all.

If passion is able to get Desire to open up.
Trust is always on alert.
Lies will tell tales
Love will twist and turn
Vulnerable will tighten around Pain
and I will remain behind this locked door.

I am lovable~
waiting to see 
when
I will be able to get close 
to Love again.
