Friend or foe?

I look at you
You smile at me
I look away, the smile vanishes

You praise me in your presence
You never defend me in my absence

I need an ear to listen to my heart
You’re always talking about others

I need a shoulder to cry on
You’re never there
I ask why?
You say, “that’s life”

Let's talk

I get confused at times
I get scared at times
I often wonder as well
I imagine things
I worry over things
Actually, I used to worry about things
I muse oftentimes

At times I’m exhilarated about possibilities
Then at times I’m wary of possibilities
Then I get scared of repercussions
There’s so much that I don’t know
But do I need to know everything now?

I talk most of the time
That way I have nothing to wonder about

Will you take the time to talk?

I am free

I could call myself a free spirit
But I will not
I am free
But I have my bounds
I am free within my bounds
I cannot see my bounds as they are that wide
I roam within my fence but I do not know limitations
I cannot see the fence
I’ve heard of the fence
I know of the fence
I will not venture to look for it
Why waste time looking for those boundaries
When I can best spend that time roaming within the bounds and enjoy life
I am free
You too can be free in God’s hand.

Now, we're talking!

This is a challenging year for me
I have to get back on track
Some of the things need discipline
I’ve got that when I decide
Some of the things need time
It’s always there- a plan is what I need
Some of the things need faith
That I always pray that I’ll keep on building
Some of the things need love
Now………I’ve got plenty of that
We all need love

Wat's this?

I'm flying
I'm floating
I'm sky high
I look down
I see everyone
Something's not right
I've got to be dreaming
No, it's not right
Seems to be a nightmare
