A shy glance
A gentle touch
A soft kiss
Ignites the soul
And captures the heart
Two become one
A single entity
Fueled by love’s passion

A simple gesture
A show of affection
Turns to more
As two hearts
Come dangerously close
And lock, forever together

They walk among us
Shrouded figures in black hooded cloaks
With glistening eyes no one can see
A fierce determination no one can feel
Asking again,
“Is my journey not over
What keeps me here
Someone please answer”
But no one can hear
“God, can you help me
I can only feel fear”
Pleading one last time
Into darkening skies
They lower their heads
And silently cry…
Convicted and cursed
Now broken and ungiving
They are simply shadows
Forever lost among the living

She is beautiful
In a wicked way
She makes the children smile
As they romp playfully about
She smirks as the rest
Struggle to find warmth
And nature trembles
As she snickers under her cold breath
No mercy in her icy grin
No comfort from the storm

Wake up
And embrace
All that life has
Swirling around you
Keep close, those
Who matter most
The ones who
Create the laughter
And dry the tears
Tell them
They count
Before it’s too late
And they depart
Enlighten yourself
To the plight of others
Reach out
Make a difference
Do not restrict
The thoughts of others
For you may never know
The lesson they teach
Spread love, not
Disdain
Spread joy, not
Bitterness
We are all
One in the same
No one better than another
We are human
