Angel of Secrets
Tell me your secrets she said with a smile
And I will sit with you and rest for a while
The love she released could light up the stars
As each precious second I counted as ours
The cells in my body pulsated with joy
As all of my secrets I did slowly deploy
Her smile grew much broader until I could see
She liked what I thought with relish and glee
I hope they all happen was all she would say
Then in that short second she went on her way
I sat there quite silent with nothing in play
As the Angel of Secrets she just flew away.

Angel of Forgiveness
Please forgive me
I was dreaming
I did not see you there
Standing oh so quiet
As I wrestled with my cares
Sometimes they overwhelm me
And clutter up my mind
While searching for some answers
To questions I’ve designed
I know if I just ask you
You’ll take away my fears
The ones that gather around me
And to my eyes bring tears
Your thoughts they are so gentle
Just like a soothing hand
I should have been more open
For I knew you’d understand
For there’s nothing you can’t cope with
Or haven’t seen before
My Angel of forgiveness
My friend forever more

AN ONION
MY LIFE IS LIKE AN ONION
EACH SKIN A DIFFERENT TIME
NO MATTER HOW YOU PEEL IT
IT’S BOUND TO MAKE YOU CRY
EACH LAYER HOLDS ITS SECRETS
OF TASKS I MUST PERFORM
EACH TIME THAT I INCARNATE
ANOTHER SKIN IS SHORN
YOU THINK EACH SKIN IS SIMILAR
THAT NOTHINGS REALLY CHANGED
BUT I’VE JUST LEARN’T A LESSON
THAT’S WHY I’VE REARRANGED
MY SKIN GOES ON FOREVER
AS IF IT MUST PROTECT
THIS SOUL THAT’S IN THE MIDDLE
AS IT LIVES OUT ALL ITS QUESTS
