An unguarded moment

No hint of a smile

The camera it captures

The real you for a while

I know if you see it

You wont be best pleased

But really it has caught you

While you are at ease

The false smile that masks you

Each hour of the day

Has somehow gone missing

As your thoughts go astray

Your hands clasped together

As if in a prayer

Talking to Angels

Who’ve come for your cares

The frown on your forehead

Like scripture conveys

This surely has been

Just one of those days

The daydream is over

The smile it returns

But somewhere inside you

Your soul it does burn

Burn for a promise

You left in the past

That’s this visit to earth

This time is your last

INNER CIRCLE

YOU ARE IN MY INNER CIRCLE

THE ONE THAT’S FORMED WITH LOVE

IT GATHERS ALL AROUND YOU

WITH PROTECTION FROM ABOVE

IT HOLDS YOUR VERY ESSENCE

AND FEEDS YOUR SOUL WITH CARE

FOR YOU’RE IN MY INNER CIRCLE

AND ALWAYS WILL BE THERE

The Wave

I am a cresting wave

That forms way out at sea

Searching for that place

Where I am meant to be

Once I am in motion

I have no brakes to stop

So I roll in constant movement

With foam across my top

My power is enormous

My strength beyond control

As I wander around this ocean

So deep so vast so cold

Just longing for that moment

When I will come to rest

Upon a shore of beauty

That ends my roaming quest
