Love is patient, love is kind Love sometimes feels like it is blind It reveals itself in unique ways It doesn’t have to be a phase Love can touch Or love can speak Love is kind and never mean Love is comes in all shapes in forms A gift between you and me An action made to show your affection Love is…

The never ending walls The color taunting that you can’t escpae The faint echos of your calls Take your place as you take your shape Stuck in the bubble of your mind Feeling like you’re commited a crime

It’s impossibly ugly this sweater But I wear it each week, no matter the weather If I wait for the weather to get better I’ll run out of time to wear this ugly old sweater It may be falling apart but I love it it like on old letter I wear this sweater while I write love letters So now it reminds me of you

Backwards Forwards Up side down Life goes round And won’t slow down

/

Backwards Forwards Right side up Life won’t stop No matter what you’ve got

/

Backwards side ways all the way around Gain yourself the world Just to lose it all

There are things that you can’t get past Things that you can’t unclasp Things that hold you back from moving on And keep you from the finish line

/

You all have them in your mind A deal A break Something that seems to make a bind

/

A deal breaker A bone of contention The elephant in the room The ultimate sticking point

I once heard a poet is only as good as their definition of poetry The way they write is defined by what they believe They write and they write but seem to be in no hurry They never run around circles pretending to be naieve / Do you want to write Do you want to be a poet Do you have time to delight In all that you have made /

The wind whispers as we race around the rink The puck clicks across the ice, a black rock Gently waiting to find it’s place in the net Hoping to win and hoping to score

Each palyer a blur as the speed across the ice A battle of wills seeing who will succeed The final horn blows and the game is complete The victory is ours as we did comepte

I walk around this world knowing I walk around this world seeing Taking it all in I know every detail about every verison of herself she has ever been I watch closely as she lives her life Waiting until the time is right I guide I teach I show I only want what’s best I love you already And I care for you greatly I can’t wait to know you I can’t wait to meet you Baby girl

I ponder the greatness and the vastness of the beauty you provide I wonder and grapple at the things you confide The small pockets of time are greater than life How could something so small take up all the space in my heart Is there anything left for me to give to the world?

They say forgiveness is a virtue But I’d rather keep my anger

They say forgiveness is healing But I’ve never been a listener

They say forgiveness is a necessity But I don’t see how I could

They say forgiveness is a virtue But I need to lose my anger

They say forgiveness is healing And I guess it’s time to start to listen

They say forgiveness is a necessity But it’s going to take some time
