Look upon my face and
Allow yourself to step
Within the essence of my soul
I am but a moment
Captured in time
Brought to life by keen eye
And the click of a camera's lense
Allowing the muse now before you
To invision and express an art form
Perhaps different than your own
Only a whispered image
That finds its voice
Within the soul of who places
These words that are now before you
Is who that now dwells searching
Engulfed within feelings of
Remorse and sadness where
The image that has come before you
Has placed her to find interpretation this day
Or ...
Are the steps taken within inserted image
Moving away from the chill of past and
Present heartache
Footfall slow to move beyond
Spirit weak to find the way
Breaks forth the sun
From mourning mist of dawn
Held long the heart
In shadow's dark refrain
Arise fearful soul to rebuke
Thy pain of nights held silent
Within lonely tears
Dare fate to quench
The heart of joyful song
As once again in hand
The rose appears
Words written by my hand
Now years ago
Placed within a moment it would seem
Of new horizons to be called upon
And a chapter
Somehow needing to be closed
I sit today wondering the
Circumstance that caused the muse
To first write the words
Forgotten is the exact reason
Of their first origin
Yet somehow they reached to me
To be found and placed once again
Speaking to me the promise of
This too shall pass
Remaining within the chill
I reach to step beyond
What is the now
Images of gray
Beckoning entrapment
Of the warmth of sun
To find a way to be stepped beyond
Breaks forth the sun
From mourning mist of dawn
Held long the heart
In shadow's dark refrain
Arise fearful soul
To rebuke thy pain
Of nights held silent
Within lonely tears
Dare fate to quench
The heart of joyful song
As once again in hand
The rose appears
