You Gather Me
Inspirational Poem
Feeling broken
Feeling hurt
Feeling shattered
Feeling hopeless
Hurting over the past
Hurting over my situation
Hurting over life
Don't know if I can make it
Don't know if I can try
But then you speak
You speak to me
You speak to my circumstance
You speak to my situation
You speak to my heart
You lift me up
You make me feel ok
You make me smile
You make me live
You change me
You put the pieces of my heart
back together
You put my life in place
You save me from myself
You keep me from all harm
You deliver me from life
You fix my mind
You set me free
You lift me up
And set me on a higher place to stay
as long as I need to

Dead and Wearing Green
She was wearing that green dress when I first saw her, five years ago to the day. Flowing meadow fabric draped over long legs, thick auburn hair flowing down her back. That smile. Of course, she is still beautiful now. But now she is no longer alive.
