Name

Your name ties me to you
In ways you cannot know
A sweeping fuzzy feeling
That leaves me all aglow

An assurance of the past
Of what you meant to me
A solid, comforting rock
An escape to history

I'm sure of just one thing
That despite my age and time
Your name will always soothe
With no reason, just lovely rhyme

Faith

Of all the lives I've ever dreamt
None has from the start,
Given me such beauty
As this one from the heart.

Although right now my feet seem mired
In some putrid smelling muck,
I know ere long the winds will change
And I'll see myself unstuck.

And so it goes from year to year,
Some up, some down, some filled with fear,
But through it all the sky stays blue,
for all my faith I've placed in You.
