The Journey
The Moon and Her Lover
The Moon contemplated him in the dark
Unaware of his love for her
She bathes him with energy and kissed him with her light
As if they were long lost lovers in the night
With the approaching sun, she would have to go
As always every morning dawn stole her glow
She whispers goodbye in his ear
She had to hurry for the time was near
As he reached for her once more
all his love to her he swore
Oh, Thank You
As I sit here thinking and contemplating life in the dark
I look back at the path I chose to walk
It makes me sad and brings tears to my eyes
I feel the betrayal I can still hear the lies
Giving you that power was my mistake
Betrayal, something you knew my soul would break
Now I judge those who come to close to me
Because of you, because I chose not to see
The truth the hurt and the way my soul was breaking
Till one day my happiness I had to stop faking
The day you walked away I could hear my heart shatter
With your goodbye somehow my life my energy was better
I thought that I would not survive the pain
Life taught me to lose you was my gain
I live my life as I please full of laughter full of shine
For now, I know that happiness is mine
My smile does not depend on you
Oh, and thank you for the lesson too
Lost Innocence
To all those whose innocence was taken
Who’s dreams were stolen, whose lives were shaken
For those of us who trusted and believed
Who now have to learn of that pain to be free
We must not hate we mustn’t carry their shame
It was not us, the innocent are not to blame
You are perfect this you have to know
Brave and beautiful your energy, your soul is aglow
Letting go of the pain may hurt today
Rely on your strength it will find the way
To always inspire to always be there
For those who one day may face despair
This burden is heavy for someone so small
Don’t let this break you remember to always stand tall
Don’t give them that power to dim your light
To steal your smile to turn your days into night
Be patient it may take a while
Time will heal time will return your smile
Purpose
We all know death is inevitable, right?
The living, can’t escape death
It is said that when humans die
They go to a place in the sky
When plants fade away
In the wind, they sway
It all ends in a place we can’t see
A place where our energy is free
A place where we can’t say goodbye
Those we leave are left to cry
We’ll all get there one day when our soul is taken away
But while we have the time, we should learn to live right
For when death comes she doesn’t play games
She comes without warning
As your last breath, she claims
When you are called the cycle is complete
Time for those left behind to understand what you came to teach
If the lesson is missed once again this realm shall touch your feet
Where sometimes the souls of loved ones again we meet
With that in mind live life to the fullest always striving to do your best
For this journey, we call life is nothing but a quest
We come to learn and to find peace
To do what’s right and not desist
What we leave behind us should speak
Showing grace and living without pique
Being an example for generations to come
That to the ‘Seven Deadly Sins” we did not succumb
The Journey
In the morning when all is quiet I ponder
I am amazed and filled with wonder
I think of all I’ve lived, how did I survive
Let me tell you, let me give you some insight
The Journey and the lessons are making sense
There were moments when life got real intense
I have learned that its all in my energy
Learning to let go, breathe, and let life flow freely
There’s a purpose for all things that come and those that go
Only when these lessons I’ve learned will my soul grow
In this world, nothing is mine I come to fulfil a destiny
In my awakening, I had an epiphany
Be open to receive, open to let go, open to love and, open to pain
This is how my soul will ascend how my energy will reach the next plane.
