In Memory of Patrick

I didn't know you well,
but I will never forget your face.

Time took it's toll on you too young,
what you were born, and who you were-
was too much for you, and the pain took it's toll.

Darkness came into your life and took too much.
It came and stole your sunshine, and you couldn't
find your way off of the shadowed path.

You will be missed, you were loved.
Now you can heal, in the light up above.

Good Night Lullaby

All along I have pictured someone strong
Thee self that you project by strings of lies
Stow sadness hidden so deep something dark
Dwells inside of the madness in your mind
You alone hold the key to my psyche
My hate for you needs to be quelled with love
That is the only way that I can live
Free from your tortured soul from your sick mind

I look within self to find compassion
I pray for help to calm our tortured minds
