Heart Print

A heart print is made that doesn’t fade
Empathy and compassion
Produce an impression
Whose mark makes a difference
Changing the present perspective
Deepening the meaning of the moment

Written In The Stars

Written in the stars is my body and soul
And I am made by Love Divine
The same love is star stuff in me

You Are Not Alone

You Are Not Alone

A silence that speaks my name
Telling me You are here now
With me...

I have everything to lose.

Very descriptive poem. Aside from the metaphors I almost felt like I had hopped aboard a sinking ship.

yes you are correct. I wrote it because I hurt my girlfriend and when I recognized how deep her pain was I felt very badly and knew I had to make amends.
