You are my morning

Each day
You would say
Good morning
Lighting my world
Like the rising sun

The morning sun
Still rises
Through the mists
I can hear
Your smile

I miss your voice
Soft in my ear
Whispered words
Of magic dew
Across our day

Each day
I say
Good morning
To the rising sun
As you light my world

To my friend Terry, who is close to going amoung the stars.

Too soon amoung the stars

Too soon amoung the stars you'll shine
A blessing that your heart touched mine
That in this world we met and smiled
We walked along a little while
But all to soon you had to leave
And I was left with just the breeze
Yes, I know though you need to go
My heart will miss you even so
You are a blessing that is mine
Too soon amoung the stars you'll shine

Broken Dreams

The words spoken
And in an instant
Broken dreams
Shattered at my feet

You, my blessing, so alive,
Lay dead they said
And I would not awake
From this searing pain

Now new joys
Beauty in each moment
Abound
Breathtaking
In their simplicity

With each sun ray
Your fingers trace
Each breeze
Your hands caress

Dreams lay broken
yet differnt dreams
Crafted gently
by unseen hand
Build stairways
To the sky

Morning Soul

You are my morning soul
A gift of light
Breath on the dew

I look into
The breaking dawn
And in my heart is you

Although the tears
that fill my eyes
Brush slowly my face

The love that shines
Upon our souls
Will never be erased

You sweet love
Are like the stars
You are the morning sky

You hold me
In those angel wings
I find that I can fly

Out of the fears and tears

I reached out
Past my fear
I let my heart guide me
Out of the darkness

Into a city of millions
I came past the walls
To find the hearts
Of forever friends

Out of the fear
Out of the darkness
together
We draw strength from love

Here among friends
I feel you strong
You bless my soul
In each breath

For you I cry
Yet smiling once more
I hold hands with hearts
As we walk
Out of the darkness

For those who may have wondered:

This month has been a bit stressful and I have had trouble having the focus and energy to write much. This month is the fourth anniversary of my loss of a man I love very much to depression and suicide. It is also what would have been his 54th birthday. A coworker lost her brother to suicide over the July 4th weekend and and second lost her son-in-law to a massive heart attack.(He was also the father of one of my son't friends) One of the truly most gifted xanga friends is struggling with a terminal illness.  My son has legal and work issues which I have been trying to help him deal with. I also had a short vacation over this last weekend, planned and taken, to Chicago for the Out of the Darkness Walk for Suicide prevention and meeting some special people who have helped me survive my loss. I will be writing...each day I try I just have to find enough peace inside to be able to hear to words to write.
