TURN AROUND

Remember the day we met


In that hot July day


When interest flared and feeling ruled


And forever seemed an endless length of time?

Our wedding, a day etched deeply in my mind.

Our honeymoon was passion found only in a book.

We laughed, we cried, we loved we grew~

Then something changes

We laughed less,

We yelled more

Time erased the love we shared.

Turn around my love

And see what is still there.

A love always given

A beating heart for you~

Turn around and let the memories find you

Of passion and steamy nights.

Don't let me walk away from you

Find the love I see inside~

Turn around

Hold out your hand

Take me back into your arms

Let love find us once again~

IN THE MIRROR

As I walk out in the world


I see faces staring back at me


And I wonder what their thinking


And who they truly see~

I am not one of those perfect ones

Who people gather round

I am the quiet, lonely one

The one without a sound~

Yet when I look into the mirror

I try to see who's me.

Am I the one who smiles?

Or do I watch the floor unseen?

Until I look into the mirror

And see the real me

And love the view I see~

I will never let anyone truly know who's me.

So gaze into your mirror

Don't hide behind the lies

Find the person hiding

Out there in plain sight~

A MOTHER'S LOVE

I cried for joy so long ago


When they placed you in my arms.


Not knowing then the years ahead


Would be riddled with pain and harm.

I struggled each year to force away the tears that

Cancer brings to me.

I want your life to be happy without the strife to take away your joy~

Yet through it all my only goal was seeing your 18th birthday.

I watch now and pray each day to allow you to continue to grow.

As the darkness of illness beats at your door and tries to take you home.

Let me lead my precious daughter

To homes loving door~

Don't leave me with the sorrow of sending you home before.

Life is short

Live it true

Don't let anger lead you astray

Keep love ever present in all that you can do~
