Unseen

Standard

We will keep going round

And round like this

Until

Each of us accept in our hearts and minds

Completely

That everyone carries

Burdens of the heart unseen which

Our minds cannot comprehend.

Hear the message in the silence between

What you believe you hear in words;

See the stillness between movements.

Therein lies communication of the soul.

Love.

Carry

Standard

Listening to the rain

Landing on the leaves

In the canopy overhead.

Elation.

Each drop creates a symphony.

I ride the notes

Arriving in a heavenly

Plane.

I just want to lay here a little longer,

Just a little longer.

Pour over me.

Let the rain fill me up

And overflow.

Wash me away and carry me.

Carry me away and lay me in

Your gentle arms

Where I belong.

Broke

Standard

Somewhere

Before I remember,

When i began to walk

I think,

I started carrying your disappointment and Fear

On my back.

And when my staggering posture became noticeable

I

Carefully moved it

Behind my ribcage

Between my heart and my stomach,

Rearranging my insides for you.

It was almost impossible to breathe,

Impossible to eat.

Though I thought that is what good children do.

As I grew I realized

You did it for your mother and father too.

This was all you knew.

I am grateful we broke our hearts open.

Thus,

We broke the silence.

The Dock

Standard

The boat is easing up to the dock.

My friend you have returned

And tears fill my eyes.

Alas the reflection of the summer sun

Upon the water stings my eyes

As I frantically search for you.

My heartstrings play your name as my feet

Carry me to you.

Arms and legs no longer heavy.

Heartbeats fall into sync.

Our smiles speak of perfect happiness.

Bliss unspoken.

And there upon the dock we are home.

Learning

Standard

I am slowly
Learning to have compassion for the girl

That believed she had no voice.

The girl that was afraid to shine
Or make a sound.
Who had been beaten down.

Who had almost disappeared from

Existence.

She will always be a part of me.
She was not weak.
After all
She carried me on her own.
On every twist and turn.
Up
Mountains and through valleys
Alone,
She carried me.
She pulled me up off my knees.
She dug me out of the shadows

And pushed me

Into the light.
Lifted my gaze up to life.
Through sun and storms.
Through my entire life.
She carried me.
Now it’s my turn to
Carry her.
To love her and I realize what I thought

Were her weaknesses,

Led to my strengths.
