Calm
You are my calm
In the storms of life
Through the rain
And the heavy wind
When the snow is falling down
And the lightning is crashing
The thunder rolling
You are my calm,
Soothing my soul
My sunshine on a cloudy day
My cool wind on a stifling hot day
My moon and stars
On the darkest of nights
You are my beacon
You, my love are the calm
In my life

Liar
He was a liar and a thief
Stealing my heart from the very beginning
Setting my soul on fire, igniting
Passion I thought I no longer held within my soul
But he walked away with not a word, no explanation no conversation
Only a world of empty promises
And left me wondering
About everything in life…

Words
Words of love, easily spoken
When everything is new
Giving of love is a true token
So let your love shine through
Don’t live your life in should have
Be brave enough to try
Love is more than a balm or salve
More glorious than the mountain high
So open your heart to the one
Who thinks you hung the moon
Enjoy your life giggle have fun
Appreciating life’s boon…

Once in a lifetime
You are my once in a lifetime
My faithful all in all
My reason and my rhyme
There to catch me when I fall
Walking through life, hand and hand
Happy together, enjoying life
As one jointly we stand
Through good times or strife
No matter where we decide to live
Happiness dwells in the heart
True joy to each each other we give
My love, my split apart

He Matters
He matter to me
In so many ways ways
His kindness so easy to see
Exalting me every day
I thank God for my caring man
Who reminded me to be me
All a part of life’s plan
Opening my eyes, helping me see
Leading me back to you, oh Lord
One prayer at a time
Making my life absent of “bored”
Now I feel sublime

Morning
Sun in my eyes,
Peeking through the curtain less window
Making me feel warm and alive
Even though I sit here alone
I don’t feel abandoned
I don’t feel unloved
I feel the glory of the sunshine
And what it represents
Waking up in a positive light
Can make your day so much better
Leave the negatives behind
Let your troubles roll off your sleeve
Be brave, be strong, and most
of all, be kind
Praising the day’s potential
Keeping the past where it belongs
Believing in the power of you
And all that you stand for
All this just from a ray of sunshine

The Belief
Living on faith, not always an easy chore
But you just have to remind yourself
To have more faith than you did before
When the Bible wasn’t dusty on a shelf
Whatever your belief system may be
You will know it in your heart
And we don’t all agree
But Faith is a good place to start
I don’t care where you come from
Or the color of your skin
Walk to the beat of your own drum
Today, let your faith begin
