All My Loves

I have heard so many tales
and so many songs
about how love conquers gales
and how much it can pull you along

I have heard about the heartbroken
the ones still in love
people searching without being outspoken
and people looking everywhere, even to above

But I have found myself
in a place so strange
I love without help
and I have no need for change

I love not with romance
but with tender friendship
I need not someone to dance
or someone to be joined at the hip

I love everyone in hopes
hopes that they will return
like lost envelopes
and from this much I have learned

My goal is to love all
and maybe one of them might fall
fall in love with me and all of my loves

My Song

Have you ever heard the sound of your soul?
no I'm not speaking of a self created sound
or one that can be made from the ember of coals
it is the one that when you hear, to it you are bound

Whether it be in the voice of another
or a song that ignites the depths of your being
the noise of nature as if it is your lover
and when it is heard it brings about healing

I have found my perfect song
the one with which my soul will dance
twirling around without neglect
so strong it cannot be pierced by the lance

I close my eyes and it wraps my body
begging to become one with me and who I am
being miraculous yet not in a way that is gaudy
and as I drift into a sea, I understand

I now know what it is to feel joy
to feel like you have found a way
to depict my soul without having to destroy
my sense of light and time of day
