"Try"

Won't you try?

Just try a little more

Please don't give up

Push yourself

Gain the upper hand

One step further

Its within your reach

One more punch

Another kick

Squeeze out another ounce of fight

Just so you can say with all of your being that you tried

Proving that its never too late

And that you never gave up.

"Held Tight"

In these arms of mine

I find you finally resting

At peace with the word

Even if its only for just one night

A few hours of sweet and tender rest

A break for the constantly fighting the good fight

The battle of climbing up the hills and obstacles put before you

And breaking the twisted circle that spins your life

You are here

Like a child held in a warm embrace

Even if its only for a few hours

Your body rests

In these arms of mine.

"Our Own"

Time is a funny thing

So is change

It differs from person to person

The affect it has upon their daily lives

We are who we are

There should be no apologies made

We weren't born to fit it

We are here, just as we are

Which is not by accident

We came here to this place of being with a purpose that is uniquely our own

So cherish it

Choose it

And make it your own

By living.

"Burn Bright"

Take action

Make a choice

Exist in the moment

Life is full of change

And sometimes the choice for change is active

Its on going

Or it never ends

A new dawn is a new day...

Live it

Hold onto it like its your last...

Because you will always wonder if there is such a thing as a perfect day

So find a reason to light up your smile

And let it burn bright.

"Found Here"

With patience

And time passing by

I have finally come upon a person worth knowing

Though at one point in time the search seemed endless...

I knew somewhere inside me that one day I would find myself here beside you

Now hand in hand

Embraced tenderly

My frayed edges are rounded smooth

I am giving this chance all I have

Plant the seed

Watch them grow

Time will let feelings and passion flow

Blossoms of bright smiles

Happiness

Pure moments

And everything in between

"Time Is This..."

Sometimes the heart feels something the eyes cannot see

Because as I lay here

With my head resting upon your chest

I listen to the sound of your heart beating

Like a constant music note played

Feeling your skin beneath my fingertips

I draw lines and circles

Passion blossoms

Reminding me that there always has to be a seed before something will grow

We are here...

Existing in every vibrant second

The taste of a sweet kiss

The smell of your freshly washed skin

I look at you...

Holding me tightly in your eyes

Safety is the presence I feel

Warmth and strength embraces me

Content in this place of being

With you...

Time is this moment.

"Active Choice"

Time has found me moving on

From the idle place I once stood

Because sometimes in life some things are unavoidable

Change happens always

Life is a million choices all asking to be made

Some are completely out of our hands

But the choice is yours when it comes to whom you share your life with

That choice is in your hands

Time is the moment

And you must remember that the choice for change is active

Its on going

And it never ends.
