Your gaze undoes me and I am taken aback,
meeting mine across a void of the deepest black.
Stars appear in our midst; kissing in tethered embrace,
in love as we find ourselves face to face.
You hold me so close; as my breathing grows deep,
I feel the passion unfold, you’re the one I want to keep.
Our hearts beat together, undivided,
awakened as one, as it was decided.

We go through tests to see what can be achieved,
Overcoming demons to do what we believed.
Making time together under stars and under sun;
In sharing our dreams, the journey’s just begun.

In this new world, a vibrant sky
each new star a pact from On High.
As day by day the future unfolds,
we find out what each promise holds–
and when they come to contradict
we pray that the best choice is picked.
Holding hands under this starlit night
we’re grateful to God in all His light.

I’m going through all my doors with locks to which there are no keys
I chase myself down the halls to come to grips with what the other sees
I just want to prove to myself that I can move beyond what held me back
I pray that with a cleaner signal and a hope for the future, I’m on the right track

Stretching these threads that connect us
as we go about our days
Crafting words out of mind and syncing when we
see the sun’s rays
Working together for the greater possibilities
that we might share
We know that in love and war it is said
that all’s not fair.
But we do our best to be real, honest, and
true to our word
Even when the situations get difficult, scary, or
however absurd
We’re learning ways to be independent as well as
ways to connect
And I’m making up for lost time with the mistakes
I correct.

Hearts take shape looking through glass
Afraid to break it after what’s come to pass
When will we find the edges and come to meet?
Had we atoned? Can we walk on our feet?
Or do our new choices count for sin if flesh was due
We forgive each other but can you?
Connected by stars, love’s not lost, it’s just transformed
And the universe has its way of keeping me informed
of the role I play, and what I must become
to see that in time, this game is won.

The echoes of my wounds don’t make me
But express to me my change of course is right
I’ll re-educate myself and do what’s demanded
Because your spirits are shining bright
I’m grateful for the ones who illuminate me
Don’t have hate towards those in the dark
Not wanting to be a hypocrite is my new polarity
If you need to light a candle I’ll be your spark

It’s been years since I first laid eyes on you,
But getting to this point- I never knew
I always thought I’d be medicated into dumbness
But my choline is corrected and I am not abusing numbness
I feel gratitude for our conversations
And forming this bond with you under constellations
As we align and overcome challenges
In my heart I’m building bridges
I want to uplift and propel you in whatever direction you want to go
You’re the person I most deeply want to know.
by Katrina
When I prayed I felt the weight of His embrace
It is said that love prevails so I may yet win this race
If I can quell my fears and demons after I’ve repented
A path to a brighter future can actually be cemented
The signs and songs align me to a better pace of time
Where I feel the freedom I need to write each new rhyme.
I keep my head steady and silence the noise,
understanding now that I have a role with my pen and voice.
by Katrina
Curses lifted from me as I keep hope alive
Pages inspired and now I strive
To keep writing on my own
And for the ones who illuminate me
I feel as though my heart has grown
Determination will set me free.
