Lydia J. McFarland Poems

When I smile, there's a sparkle in my eyes...
it's you... it's you, Lord... it's you.
When I laugh, there is happiness in my heart,
it's you, it's you, it's you.
...

your words and inspiration
for they are like tender caresses,
on my brown skin,
your wisdom captivates my mind,
...

I shouldn't have ever opened the door
and invited you in,

we are so alike it's like we are some kin
...

How many secrets untold,
does one treasure chest hold
in the possession of Pandora's Box?
...

I am not perfect, nor have I acquired all
of the skills required in order to enter
The Almighty's Kingdom.
I do not forget my past, nor do I dwell on it,
...

Regardless of what you've done,
think of the battle you've won...

Overcoming guilt and distress,
...

Lost in thought my dreams corrupted,
My heart is crumpled deep down inside.

I'm quite lonely, yet a cold heart
...

Deeper than the deepest ocean
Is my love for you.

It is wider than the Grand Canyon,
...

Living Life
Young
Devouring Death
In
...

Strange as it may seem,
I do have these feelings.

I care for you so much,
...
