Meaning

 

Speak to me of things you know

And I will speak of things I don’t.

Speak to me of thoughts you ponder

And I will speak of such thought’s folly.

Speak to me of questions had

And I will speak of answers vague.

Speak to me of dreams you have

And I will urge your heart to follow.

Speak to me of love you’ve lost

And I will share the love I’ve found.

Always There

Each night I keep her on my chest.

Her fragrant scent

I love the best.

When morning comes

Her song greets the day,

Often leaving me little to say.

Every chance I can

I sneak a kiss.

Her lips not long for my venture unmissed.

Her spirit shines for the world to see

I fool myself, it’s only for me.

How long will these tender moments last,

You see, it’s been years since I’ve seen her last.

Stay but Go

Leave NOW                                  

Don’t go far.

Out of my sight but       

                                                       stay close enough for me to feel you.

When

                                                       you Look back at me,

you see me fall to the ground.                 

                                                       I cry for our souls.

I say “I’M SORRY”,

                                                       So do you.

Boots

Their boots, they will stomp to the beat of a thunderous doom.

I can’t walk with them anymore… My steps are made gentle; laid in light by grace.

Their shouts, they will get louder and echo; with no walls to contain them.

I am deaf to them… my ears, thank God, are for those voices no more; only divine whispers do I hear.

Their fists will crash down with hammers heavy with emptiness.

Feel their pain? No…
for pain is not of battered flesh; but of a searching heart.

They will glare with contempt; with anger’s darkness daring light not to surrender to a temptation so seemingly sweet.

But not the light that shines for me; tempted not by fleeting beauty; yielding only to the beauty of Truth.
