Space

The words choked

Could not bear the distance

Intense pressure built

Until they needed space

Silence began

Without words or hum

Heart went out

But they needed space

Pushed to write

Tempted to call

Respect for each other

Space healed their wounds

Birthdays

Birthdays make you feel special

They are like new jewelry

Birthdays bring fame

They put the spotlight on us

Birthdays happen once a year

They make you feel like a landmark

Birthdays paint the day different

They write our names in history

Birthdays are not selfish

Everyone has one

Trust

Trust is rare

When it exists

Trust believes

When it does

Trust shakes

Proving it difficult

Trust is patient

When it hopes

Trust is sacred

Never to be played

Faith

Knowing it has happened

Believing it is done

Convinced it is well

Waiting for reality

Shameful we are blind

To all spirituality

But the heart believes

And convinced it is well

What we hoped for

Prayed for so long

Without even knowing

But our faith believes

Feelings

Feelings rise like waves

Consume every part of the mind

Feelings take over us

Make us feel out of control

Feelings are like a strong army

They fight and conquer after all

Feelings drives love to us
