~ FRIENDS ~
As we walk our path of life,
We meet people everyday.
Most are simply met by chance.
But, some are sent our way.
These become special friends
Whose bond we can't explain;
The ones who understand us
And share our joy and pain.
Their love contains no boundaries.
So, even we are apart.
Their presence enhances us
With a warmth felt in the heart.
This love becomes a passageway,
When even the miles disappear.
And so, these friends, God sends our way,
Remain forever near.
My Room
My Room My room is my refuge
And my prison My sanctuary And my cage It gives me safety
From almost everyone And keeps me From their rage.
It’s a haven from Unpleasantness And a safe harbor from
Fear It protects me fromThe world But the cost of my safety
Is quite dear.I stay cloistered in This womb I’ve have created
Of concrete walls And an over-locked door I refuse to answer
When someone taps Because it rattles meTo the core.
I will escape this room someday And begin to live anew.
It may take a long time,But it’s something only I can do.
