THE CONTRITE HEART…

An olive branch I extend,
Meet me at the corner, round the bend.

My pride seemed so effortless,
Complex to adjust.

I compromised our union,
Faded is your trust.

Shattered your heart, won't pretend,
Meet me at the corner, round the bend.

Anger consumed inside me,
This error now clear.

Refuse to speak in past tense,
Of love we both share.

Weary soul, faith I can lend,
Meet me at the corner, round the bend.

Is this the last dance my love?
Never can it be.

Fairytales last a lifetime,
Like the sand and sea.

Disheartened spirits on the mend,
Meet me at the corner, round the bend.

AS FREE AS A BIRD…

Upon this river bank,
I'll leave my troubles here.
The journey is anew,
It weighs too much to bear.
Middle of the ocean,
Is where I'd follow you.
No fright consumes my mind,
My faith equipped for two.
These stars aligned for us,
Please take me there with you.
Hope surrounds my aura,
My peace is tried and true.
Keep this here, river bank,
The weight too much to bear.
True love will now suffice,
There is no room for fear.

TRUST IN ME…

Let me be your refuge,
Your safe haven,
When fear embeds your mind.

Let me be your pillar,
Your rock,
When the journey gets weary.

Let me extend a shoulder,
My arms wide open,
When the tears overflow.

Let me be your dawn,
Your noontime,
And spontaneous night.

I will be your serenity,
Your tranquility,
When this world screams aloud.

Trust me to be…
In existence,
To be here… For you.

I LOVE YOU.

DEEP INSIDE

This heart,
Holds no record of wrongs.
Hatred can never thrive here.
This heart,
Beats a silent tune,
Of trust, hope and love.
Tomorrow will always be anew.
The horizon I can see.
So much joy dwells in here...
My heart now beats for you,
Bad moments I'll take...
For good times i await...
However the tide turns,
We'll be in synchronized harmony.
Just because my love,
This is what's inside of me...
