2 Minutes
2 minutes and the call came through
2 minutes and I had a talk wit you
Your voice so quiet telling of your sadness
So many things to say
Yet silence was all we had
And that is all we need
For in it are our words spoken
Our feelings expressed and fears relieved
Go now, my love
Though the path before you may seem unsure
Remember with each step you take
You are not alone and never will be
God is by your side and you are in my prayers
With this knowledge look ahead and face tomorrow
With the confidence that comes from this knowledge
Adieu my love

Untitled
She stares up at the sky
All she sees are grey clouds
She longs for a blue sky
Alas! Not a single ray of sunlight can she see
Hanging her head low, she accepts her fate

Longing for a happier time
Wishing for a brighter day
Reality tells her she’s dreaming
But her dreams are all she has left
Her night now filled with nightmares
Constantly haunting her filling her sleep
She fears closing her eyes for sleep she dreads

The turmoil that consumes her life goes unseen
It bubbles and churns underneath
On the surface she seems okay
Truth be told she’s anything but that

She gathers the strength to scream
A cry for help fills the sky
Shattering the silence that once was
The clouds part and sunshine returns
She relishes the moment
Drinking it all in like a cool drink on a summers day
This peace she knows and dreads will not last long.
