WHEN DEATH COMES
When death comes like the hungry bear in autumn;
when death comes and takes all the bright coins from his purse
to buy me,
and snaps the purse shut;
when death comes like the measle-pox
when death comes like an iceberg between the shoulder blades,
I want to step through the door full of curiosity,
wondering: what is it going to be like, that cottage of darkness?
And therefore I look upon everything as a brotherhood and a sisterhood, and I look upon time as no more than an idea,
and I consider eternity as another possibility,
and I think of each life as a flower,
as common as a field daisy, and as singular,
and each name a comfortable music in the mouth,
tending, as all music does, toward silence,
and each body a lion of courage,
and something precious to the earth.
When it's over, I want to say all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms.
When it's over, I don't want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real.
I don't want to find myself sighing and frightened,
or full of argument.
I don't want to end up simply having visited this world.
I want to have lived it.

Alone with my thoughts
Alone with my thoughts,
Alone in my dreams,
Alone in the night,
Alone with my screams.
Alone in that place between sleep and awake,
I lay here alone and wait for daybreak.
Alone in my room,
Alone in my bed,
But I’m not alone
in my in my heart or my head.
For your love is forever in my heart,
Your smile forever in my head.
I LOVE YOU MOM <3

THE RAIN
I love it when it rains.
Each little droplet,
a tear from Mother Nature.
The wind tries to sway it,
pushing it south to west or whatever direction,
but the rain wins
by being anywhere it chooses to be,
in order to calm hearts,
to soothe pain,
to bring hope for the future.
Rain,rain come to me.
