~*~ Paper Hearts ~*~
~*~
If I had a paper heart
I would set it free
Then my heart would be dismissed from any feelings of pain
A little tear could be taped and wrinkles could be ironed out
Into the wind I would send my heart
Blowing away loves suffering and heartache
I could replace this heart with another one
I would just cut it out of paper
To start over from day one
But could a paper heart truly feel the way I do?
I think I would rather keep my heart
Accepting the trials it has been through
It has served a life time
Seeing love and pain that has come and gone
It also holds a special spot for each of my once true loves
I would never want a paper heart that could easily be replaced
One that would let the memories of my unforgotten loves
go blowing in the wind

~*~ Serenity ~*~

~*~

Whispers of a breeze
Whisk away my heart's sorrows
Your enchanting love
Captivates my inner soul
Freeing my spirit to dance

Ancient Angel


I found an ancient angel,
She floats upon a wall.
Not many folks have seen her,
She’ll come whenever you call.

She is guarded by the spirits,
If you seek her you will find;
She will only appear for you,
If you have an open mind.

When you finally see her,
You’ll wish that she would talk;
But the only way she’ll speak,
Is when you take the walk.

She believes in only truth,
And if you should betray;
She’ll hide herself in the shadows,
And everything turns gray.

She was sent here from heaven,
On that you can depend.
But if you ever harm the earth,
The earth she will defend.

If you should wish to please her,
Tread lightly on her ground.
Share truth and good with others,
And your soul to her is found.

When you reach your peak of faith,
She’ll keep  you in her heart.
She will show you mercy,
Your souls will never part.

If your faith turns into loyalty,
With her your soul will stay.
And when darkness takes the light,
She will still show you the way.

I found an ancient angel,
She lives upon a wall.
I’ll honor what she stands for,
And I will not fall.

Antique Roses

 

 

Dried antique
rose petals
rolling down
windy street

Withered--
beauty stolen
doused in
poisionous venom
tearing sensitivity--
soflty weeps

Its fragrance
forced from
its innocence

Rose garden
"promises"
while seething
in selfish intent

Destructive ruins
become pronounced
becoming Old
before its time

Never looking
for The roses

But--

I Did
want
Them

Love died

Before
it tried

Antique rose petals

Billowing through--

My mind

Rebirth

The radiant sun shone down upon her face,
But she was oblivious to its warmth.
A gentle breeze caressed her porcelain skin,
But she was numb to its touch.
The delightful melodies of birds filled the air,
But she was deaf to their sweet song.

Nothing penetrated her aching heart,
Except for the cruel fact that it had been broken.
She sat there, numb to the world.
No longer caring, no longer feeling.
Eyes red and distant, a stream of tears,
Worked their way down her cheek.

She glanced up as a shadow fell over her.
There he stood, smiling at her.
A single rose in his hand, she took it
Automatically, without thinking.
He thanked her for sharing her beauty,
And then turning, he walked away.

Blinking, as if suddenly awakening
From a dream, she glanced around.
But the man had disappeared.
As she stood there searching,
She felt the sun on her face, the wind.
The air was filled with the chorus of birds.

No, she whispered.
Thank YOU for showing me how to live again.
