Which are the important words
The ones we want made clear
Whose sentiment we underscore
Whose truths we need to hear
It’s key that they not remain words
But values we live out
Let us let them color us
And show what we’re about
Which are the important words
The ones we want made clear
Whose sentiment we underscore
Whose truths we need to hear
It’s key that they not remain words
But values we live out
Let us let them color us
And show what we’re about
I dare us to tell
Why we cannot speak the truth
Or walk together
The walk upstairs to the house of old
Revealed
A welcome sensation
For an instant I longed
To receive its four pillars -columns standing true, proud
As my own
The chipped whitewash there and warped, seeded glass panes
Endeared me more, if possible
Than the western orientation, southern gardens and Boston Block
My four-legged friend thought to stay
At last!
But inside, too-small appointments
You will never prove
Your deepest, darkest disdain
Is not aimed at me
Cry, cry, cry
The entire walk home
Should you need to
Just jut that jaw still
And lift those eyes hill-ward
That all must be well
I will sit all day
With my back to your door
Not caring if I’m surprised
I’ll watch most boldly
With kindness and dare
That your gaze would find my eyes
Should you choose to hear
The voice in your head
That tells you to seek my frame
I’ll step to your side
Let others walk by
The world will not be the same
This water
Why has no one before written warnings
Charted out the crevices filled with lore of the depths
As if we we born old-soul seafarers
As if
We should walk on water together
A little
This complete contentment
To walk
Completely independent
Of the one who walks the same
The resonance notwithstanding
The skin
We’ve weaved and find meandering
Doesn’t matter to my name
This non-sensical place
All there are
Are goodbyes
To do
When will
The Living
Matter
And aloneness, looking back
Have cost too much
Love and Walk
Walk in Love
Is all there is
So do
