Lioness

Lioness,
I here your footsteps
The deep gurgle in you throat
The night is on and no one can stop you

Lioness,
Ever the vigalant pose
Claws out, head back, ready to
Sacrifice youself on the altar for the one

Lioness,
Your cub cries out, scared
With blinding speed you jump on
The predator, never see’s you till, to late

Lioness,
Sounds of cracked bone
Screams of torn flesh ring on, and
Carcass, mutilated, left in the sun to warn

Lioness,
Protector, defender, 
Nurturer, teacher, and all between
You exist for the cub, he thrives, grows for it

The power you wield can never be matched
Not  the teeth , no, nor is it the claws
Heart, Soul, Dignity and
Fire you wield

Lioness

The Wonder of Life

Time
Goes by
On a line
Wondering why
It passes us up
Without reason or rhyme
Like drinking without a cup
Illusions of control we pine
Powerless trying to change the world
The salvation being that we must die
From ashes comes the steady warmth of a pearl
Everything is beauty and light cracks though on high
The air so pure nothing can blotch the radiant glow
A landscape so cold shifts and blanket emotion erupts
Faulty dams cannot stand the pressure and the new rivers flow
With open hearts we must conclude that time’s an ally we accept

My Love, My Life, My Everything

Not long ago
I was all but alone
An empty space
Nowhere to call home

I had Sadness
Bottled so deep inside
Then I met her
And had nothing to hide

She is my love
The flame inside my soul
She is my life
The part that makes me whole

As the clock ticks
And our bodies decay
What doesn’t change
Is how I feel today

Today I feel
That our love is still new
From then till now
Always worshipping you

She is my love
The flame inside my soul
She is my life
The part that makes me whole

The trials we’ve had
Have only strengthened our pair
Through victory
Love and triumphs we’ve shared

Make no mistake
You were always the one
Shining so bright
Like a pearl in the sun

She is my love
The flame inside my soul
She is my life
The part that makes me whole

She . . . is my everything
