Live Each Day As The Last

 

God presented me with a gift,

I looked at it and was surprised.

This item I couldn't manage to lift

Before I could anything realize.

 

 

Early in the morning, I made my plans.

But vanity decided to break intention.

My hopes went away with the vans.

And the prices they didn't mention.

 

 

I was quick at twenty, thirty, and so on.

I did not see the false o...

Know You Better

Know You Better

 

 

I know you will be there at the agreed date and time.

 

I open my screen and there you are;

no excuses, not late, nor disinterested, never vague,

rather switched on, involved, intense, passionate, reflective, attentive.

 

Called to the stand I find a voice.

 

You listen quietly as I speak the unspoken.

Kindly, you allow me to continue

Who chooses the time to go to heaven? 

But it is possible to choose our day

No Voice

Without a voice
I am left here in this world
to forever be silent.
Because as I try to speak,
my voice vanishes so quickly,
so that I'm left here unspoken
with no one to hear what I have to say.
And for someone to apprehend
my words I speak, with my unheard voice,
would be such a miracle I can't explain.

But even though I have no physical voice
I have a language of my own I write.
