None Can Hide...



Where has everyone gone,
why so few comments,
why fewer likes,
why the distance...???

Why do you delete me when I speak,
why dont you understand what I seek,
why arent you with me on this peak,
why am I alone at the creek...?

Its okay,
I dont need an answer,
I dont need what Ive never had,
the good covering the bad...

When I was a child,
I never grew into a man,
my heart; a child's plan,
adults living, was to much of a demand...

My hometown people,
no where to be seen,
talk about the steeple,
my love is serene...

Tired of the concern,
from what, have you learned...?

The hype mixed with emotion,
sight is seen your ship on a ocean...

Not much different than mine,
thinking its all fine,
feeling the pain,
everyone alone in the rain...

How I wish so many of you were here,
to share each falling tear,
to express the fear,
to hold you near...

My Lord,
what has become of my heart;
the mending to whats been torn apart,
the aching for a new start,
a cold season of thought,
our soul Lord; forgive before we depart...

Our minds taken so far away from you,
the world's doing, to the few,
sipping from the morning dew,
hoping your existence is true...

Shining upon the darkness,
a lighthouse at the edge of the world's mess,
holding your light,
each & every night,
shining for you, so bright...

I share on FaceBook,
hoping you take a look,
reading in between the lines,
knowing the north star always shines...

Like a diamond on the lake,
my real is what others fake,
message me,
and youll see,
that its more than me,
that tries to set a spirit free...

Where are you now, friend...?
you who play pretend,
this love I do send,
wondering if you comprehend;
real... from... Spirit,
few there are that can hear it...

This is why I write;
fighting the fight, crying each night,
invisibleness my sight,
trying to do whats right,
on a stairway to Heaven in flight...

A Poem for thought,
sharing what Im taught,
with everything Ive fought,
this, is what Ive sought...

your heart fragile in weakness to strengthen...
