The New Leaf

The New Leaf

I’m the new growth in the Master’s creation;
lost in the midst of his infinite reality;
not likely to cause a big splash, or sensation;
tho giving evidence of creation’s duality.

By myself, I’m an example of insignificance;
a solitary leaf, falling on

Dear Lord

Overwhelmed

Sometimes I experience information overload;
and there’s little, within it, I understand;
my thoughts feel as though they’re set to implode;
no longer feeling my mind in command.

I feel lonely, unloved, unwanted, and depressed;
struggling to find my way each day;
keeping my thoughts hidden and

A Walk With The Master

A Walk With The Master

My mind is taking it’s daily stroll;
wandering thru a forest of thought;
the mind, is the voice of the soul,
and, it spoke of heresies brought.

Reality is full of truths, to uncover;

The Gift Of Loneliness

The Gift Of Loneliness

I’ve been given the gift of being alone;

The Gentleman Who

The Gentleman Who

What is it about riches and fame;

I’d like to be known as who I am;
not, who I long to become;
for I am a life,

The Flood Of Feelings

The Flood Of Feelings

Why do deep feelings flow out of control;
are we unable to stem their flow?
Can we not be master of our own soul?
Please tell me why it’s not so.

How is it that feelings even begin;
where is it they get their start?
